    she's lucky to have such a supportive mother

    Credit where it's due: Laura's mother consistently uses the right pronouns, even when speaking about historic memories when Laura identified and presented differently. She seems like such a supportive mum. I can see where Laura gets her strength from. Major kudos.

    Finding this band, finding Laura, as a trans girl in 2019, its, amazing. She inspires me to keep pushing on with music. Even if the career doesnt work out and i fall back on game design or physics, or some other interest of mine, at least i can say tried. Her music keeps me afloat during the lowest of lows, singing along to songs like Transgender Dysphoria Blues, wishing i even had a summer dress. Not for people to notice, but more just, for my own comfort

    I live a city away from Naples, and I've been there millions of times. Naples is a very poor place to be if you're part of the LGBT community. I have dysphoria, and I feel pretty isolated because SW Florida is full of traditional, dirty old men. I've been writing music for several years now, and I borrow influence from Laura..It hurts being here, and it hurts less knowing Laura originated from mere miles from me

    LOVE!! I did not know what my dysphoria was, or that my dysphoria was due to my having always felt like a female... I can completely relate to this. I did not care about my life, was filled with guilt and shame, and hid from the world. I had no friends. I have a 155 IQ but nearly flunked out of high school. I often refused to go to school throughout my childhood. I hated school so bad, I could hardly stand to be there. I did not fit in. As soon as I began accepting this part of myself it all changed. It took me a long time to realize what my problem was. I hated myself, refused to believe... Nothing made sense -- until I began reading about transgender issues. It's like a miracle. Their stories are MY story! I thought I was an alien - totally alone. Not anymore. A few of my friends at my transgender support group went to your book signing in Chicago, and I just ordered your book. I wish I had known more and had gone to meet you. I hope you are in Chicago again soon!!!

    When a person is going through life and there are unresolved issue. Eventually they will have to deal with them. They can do a lot of things to push those issue aside but ultimately they resurface until they are delt with. If someone doesn't deal with the issues, they can lead to self destruction. I've had my own issues to face and I had to just stop and say no you are no longer allowed to bother me,. go away and never come back.

    • @hadenclaire
      @hadenclaire Рік тому +2

      Definitely agree, you can't push certain issues to the side forever. I stumbled through life for 30 years refusing to acknowledge mine and constantly feeling stuck and out of place, before I finally acknowledged who I was and found the courage to transition. It sucks at first when you confront something uncomfortable and decide to do something so scary, but in the end it's for the best. And I'm starting to really feel like I enjoy life now, even though it's kind of a scary time to be trans in my part of the world. I'm finally living life instead of running.

    Tom didn''t grow up 'poor' like he claims here. His Dad was a military man.
    It seems like he was repressing narcissism and has histrionic personality disorder which he channeled into his crossdressing kink and claimed it's 'dysphoria'

      As a military brat myself (and surely you AREN'T or you would know) I can tell you for a fact that you do NOT live a middle class life when there are children and wives involved. So beat it.
      Oh and cute armchair psychiatry (which has been proven false continually, btw.) Check out a few academic papers to brush up. Or, I DUNNO, TRUST PEOPLE'S EXPERIENCES and don't be a dick. 👍🏼
