TLDR

I write a lot about homelessness and the LGBTQ community is at ridiculously high risk of homelessness, so I feel the LGBTQ community needs some general information to help reduce risk of homelessness. That's why I started this site.

The name comes from a relationship I had for a time to a troubled trans youth for whom I was unofficially a surrogate mom or adoptive mom. I named her Genevieve to help her cope with a terrible situation and give her some psychological protection.

This is not specifically a trans resource. It includes information pertinent to the trans community but I write more generally about LGBTQ topics.

I do have two trans resources. One is a HRT sandbox called Formulary of Life and the other is a newer project called While the World Burns for AMAB individuals and their wives.

I started the second one because I kept seeing questions on Reddit by married AMAB individuals who felt their lives were imploding because they could not stay closeted anymore and also could not figure out how to come out as a trans woman while they were someone's husband and also could not figure out how to make this transition without the support of their wife.

Anger Management

I was molested and raped as a child. I spent my teens and twenties filled with anger. My therapist once said something like "How did I know you were angry? Maybe it was the flames shooting out your ears." He wasn't actually talking about me. He was describing someone else. But he could have been talking about me. I took up role playing gaming in my teens and my first character was a Red Sonja-esque character with long red tresses. She was a fighter mage and she had issues. Gaming was good for me. I made a lot of friends and they were mostly male and they were protective of me. I began to put down my baggage. At some point, I retired that first character because she was so angry and toxic and I wasn't anymore. Playing her required me to put back on the mantel of so much baggage that I had worked hard to put down and it wasn't good for me to keep that alive. In my late twenties, me and my husband bought a house and it was about thirty minutes from the ...

Terminology, History and Context

From a previous post called The Closet : At one time, I thought that being a "closeted gay" meant something like you slept alone or dated same-sex people secretly. I have come to understand that term differently over the years. I've just left a comment on Reddit in a discussion about the past stating again that at one time I thought closeted meant handling things discreetly but that's not how that word gets used. I did so because of a reply to an earlier  comment of mine where the reply says "We were closeted. To do otherwise meant you'd lose your job." because I talked about the fact that we don't really know how LGBTQ stuff was handled because the written records we have don't really give you a good picture. I initially thought my "weirdo" interpretation of closeted was me being stupid or something but this little exchange has me rethinking that. I'm thinking now that perhaps at one time closeted  was used to mean handling it di...

JK Rowling

As noted by me elsewhere, a lot of people are NOT good at saying "Yes, they are famous, but they are sourcing that info from their ass. Their opinions on THIS subject aren't important." If people were good at that, JK Rowling could not be trolling planet Earth with talking smack about trans issues merely because she's famous. It's been some months since I stated a very mild opinion about JK Rowling's transphobic trolling of planet Earth. My understanding is her shit continues unabated and I'm not okay with that fact. 1. I have a serious medical condition and used to really start shit online without meaning to do so. If she's not merely a thoroughly hateful, evil person, the most charitable guess is she's got a serious medical condition and is trolling planet Earth from her sick bed for entertainment. I was not intentionally shit stirring, was not famous nor influential and I put enormous effort into figuring out how to not be so problematic. I ca...
