Hello...
I am a straight, single Father of 8 Daughters, ranging in age from 5 to 29.
My ex had/has addiction and mental health issues that created the need to raise the children alone their entire lives. She was a reproductive abuser, so she got pregnant, left home, return home to have the baby, rinse, repeat 7 more times.
Ironically, the 7-8 months she spent away from home between the having children and getting pregnant again, we're spent in mental health facilities, drug rehabs, and in relationships with women. She is currently married to another woman, has no custody by choice, and little to no contact with her children by choice.
I have spent 3 decades learning about women, so that I can raise girls to become women, and to make a long story short, my life is not the usual straight male that the media either glorifies, mocks, or somehow ensnares in the daily talking points of who defines gender/sexuality, and what that definition is or isn't.
My being here has nothing to do with my own sexuality, it actually has to do with gathering answers to questions. I have "gay friends" so to speak, but none of them take my questions seriously, and find me more of a novelty to be gossiped about, than a struggling single Father, living below the poverty line, trying to live one gender, yet devote their life to the opposite.
So before I can start asking questions in other forums, I needed to stop here first, and this thread meets that polite requirement, of giving those who would desire to answer a question posed by me, a short back story, which might better enlighten them on how to better answer.
See, now that was not as hard as some might have expected was it now?
Hahaha.
