What did you do yesterday?

I listened to some driving music, visited the Canadian Aviation museum where I took a pile of pictures and created some videos, stopped for directions in Rockcliffe Park, froze my fingers and nose at the half frozen Rideau Falls, drove down the 1000 Islands Parkway enroute to Iroquois Lock on the St Lawrence Seaway and then stopped for a look at the ice, ice fisherman and boat trapped in the ice at the Cardinal marina.
I so need to get a life...

Date: 2009-01-05 10:22 pm (UTC)This is related to your recent post (RE: Gym) on the Partners of TG Community. I hope you don't mind my response here, it's just that I'm not an approved member yet.
Firstly, I am not TG, I'm a gay woman. I know it's not nearly the same thing, so I hope you don't mind my responding to your post!
The thing is, my partner is a dancer. And every once in a while I sit in on her practice sessions with the other female dancers. She is very feminine so it's easy for them to accept her presence as a non-threatening one. I'm a bit of a give away though, quite 'butch' as they say. Their practice sessions are a sort of a 'man free zone', but I worried how they'd view a masculine lesbian.
I also attend her shows sometimes and end up helping out backstage. So theres a lot of semi-nakedness and changing going on around me! I used to get really uncomfortable, I developed a kind of 'guilty conscious' despite the fact I had done nothing wrong.
My partner reassured me, firstly, they don't care. Secondly, you aren't doing anything wrong. I suppose what i'm saying is that it all boiled down to my own guilt. And as it happens, I now know for a fact that the majority DON'T care. The one or two I've come across that do care, f*ck 'em! So, that's my piece. I don't know if it can help, but there it is!
