Congratulations Leslie! Isn’t it a wonderful feeling to finally do something you’ve so wished for? What kind of initial earrings did you choose? Do keep taking good aftercare of your new piercing to avoid any healing problems and before you know it you’ll be buying all kinds of cute earrings, lots of them!
Tomorrow will be two weeks since I had my ears done and so far all is going very well with my healing. I still love them to death and so far I haven’t had one comment or odd look from anyone anywhere I’ve gone. It’s really a big nothing these days for a guy to be sporting two earrings, even an oldie (but a goodie) like me!
Best of luck with the reveal to your wife, I hope it goes well, dear! Hugs.

Way to go Leslie, Got mine done about a week ago, mostly thanks to Michaela’s P.Y.E. post. A bit shocking at first as in wow cant believe I did that but you will find it changes how you feel feminine. They are akin to painted nails for me just a friendly reminder that stephanie is here to stay.
Hope they work out for you.

This has been my week to push the envelope. Last Sunday my older brother (I am 76 so you know he is OLD) called, and I used the call to finally come out to him. I was scared as hell to do it! He is my big brother and always has been sort of conservative in his views so it was kind of frightening to do. After I told him that I was trans and transitioning, his first comment was “I knew that you had been unhappy for a long time but I didn’t know what it was. But if this is making you happy. I support you.” And he said that he had always wanted a sister and he was still my BIG BROTHER and anyone who messed with me would have to deal with him. So getting my ears pierced was sort of a bit of an anticlimax. But I do like how they look!
That’s great news Leslie! Happy to hear of your bravery to come out to such an important person in your life but even more so for your brother’s acceptance. Way to go girl!
I have FOUR brothers both older and younger and all are more conservative than me that have yet to catch sight of my new earrings and eyebrows. This will be an interesting future interaction for me for sure! (bring it on. 🙂 )

Michaela, Coming out to your brothers can be a very hard thing to do hope all goes well for you. I came out to my 4 brothers over a 6 month period. 2 are conservative and 2 on the liberal side. 3 of them said they had no problem with me being me. the 4th has not said much since coming out to him, he is the most conservative of all of us. BUT I think/hope? that family is more important than what gender we believe ourselves to be.
