Proton Jon. He(now she) came out on stream today to reveal that she's been taking HRT for 2 years and has been hiding it. She's now Claire, but is fine if some people still call her Jon, for now. Honestly glad to see it! She's happier than she's ever been! She was worried about revealing it in this day and age so I wish safety for her and her wife. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...

for a second I was wondering what you meant with the egg thing, but iirc, that's when you're in the considering stage, right? like, considering how if you might be trans/how it would be like to be a gender you weren't assigned? but for real, that's nice. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

There are a few psychological measurements that have "steps," and an egg would be someone in the pre-contemplation or contemplation stage if I were to adapt them to this. The idea is there, it sounds enticing, but no decision has been made nor steps taken yet. --- He/Him http://guidesmedia.ign.com/guides/9846/images/slowpoke.gif https://i.imgur.com/M8h2ATe.png https://i.imgur.com/6ezFwG1.png ...

Nice. It's kinda funny, I've been slowly seeing other people in my social media or friend circles "become" trans. ("Become" is the wrong word but idk a better one despite being trans lmao.)

Good for her, though yeah it does make it slightly awkward if she doesn't change her username, ProtonClaire doesn't flow quite as well. Probably just go by Proton unless she pivots to something else entirely. I've watched the TRG crew and their affiliates for a while, but haven't checked in with them too much recently. ...

The stream where she came out as trans is "This is the One Edition". It's actually pretty interesting learning when the egg finally cracked so-to-speak for her, and (the funny part) the sheer amount of hints and near slip-ups that have been happening on stream over the course of those two years. It's seven-ish hours but I've been listening to it off and on. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...

Are Claire and Lucah now considered lesbians? Or is Lucah considered bi or pan now? My apologies if this sounds insensitive.Not a problem, ignorance (the "don't know something" definition, I'm not calling you ignorant) is not malice. "I don't know" is not offensive or malicious, "I don't know nor do I care" is. Generally speaking, with a person's transition you abandon the old identifiers. Name is dead, pronouns are different, so on. What was is largely irrelevant, with the exception of medical matters. If you're over 40 and you have a prostate, it needs checked. Past that, stick with the new. So it does change the gender dynamics of the relationship, but the final orientation of the other person is just as up to them as it is for the trans person's gender identity is their business. Sometimes it's "I was always bi anyway," sometimes it's "I guess I'm pan now, cool," sometimes it's "I'm heterosexual with the exception of you." There'll be as many answers as there are couples. If I'm getting something wrong or misrepresenting something, someone please let me know. --- He/Him http://guidesmedia.ign.com/guides/9846/images/slowpoke.gif https://i.imgur.com/M8h2ATe.png https://i.imgur.com/6ezFwG1.png ...

So that shouldn't be an issue I think. Though she does say that the gender jokes that have been going on since the RosaJon persona started years ago (an alternate of "himself" that looked like Mario's Rosalina) will probably stop since...well, she's actually a girl now. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...
