Hello fantástic@s!

Does anyone know where to get breastforms in San Francisco? I'm done with Carla's in San Jose and the only place I've found online is Foxy Lady in SF, but its website doesn't have breastforms, but it says their store does. Can someone tell me from experience how much they cost there/where else to get them in SF?

Thanks so much!

Hi... I'm new to both LJ and this community as a whole, so please bare with any mistakes I make. I'm trying to figure out what I am, and I decided that I might need some outside help with this.
Thanks in advance for any advice, comments, etc.

Hey all, I don't post here often enough, and I should probably read this oftener, too, but I'm really in a bind, and I could use some help.  I live in Wyoming, and I'm trying to find a doctor who can prescribe hormone therapy for MtF's (well, anyone, really, but since that's what I am...).  I've been looking everywhere, I've talked to nearly all of the councilors in town, I've even called the hospital here and in the next-nearest town, and several places there as well, and I'm completely stumped.  The internet has been less than helpful for me, because I just can't seem to find anything about Wyoming anywhere.  What should I do?  Leaving the state would be a problem for me, and I don't want to take them without the 'scrip, too many other problems there, but I simply can't find anyone in the state who can give me the 'scrip...

Anyone living in Wyoming read this community?  Have you experienced the same problems I am?  Maybe even overcome them?  Or maybe someone knows the number of a person who can decide such a thing over the phone?  Any and all help would be greatly appreciated...

Hello everybody.  Just joined up, so I thought I'd intoduce myself.

My name is Ally (my legal name is a secret =3), and I am 18 and from the Boston area.  I am bi, and mtf transgendered, and will go through with transition as soon as I have enough money.  I truly believe I'm just a girl stuck in a boy's body, because I think, speak, and act just like a girl, and girls clothing feels more comfortable and natural to me.  I have feminine interests, feminine thoughts, feminine desires, etc.

On that note, I LOVE high heels, especially the ones with heels higher than 4 inches.  They just make my feet feel natural, for some strange, yet satisfying reason.

Anyways, I enjoy playing my guitar, listening to music (Fall out boy and All American Rejects all the way!!!).  I will come up with more later, but for now, this is pretty much it.

I work at the largest non-profit in the county in which I live. For many years the agency has prided itself on having "best practices" as far as diversity is concerned, even using information from World Institute on Disability for best practices when working with folks who are disabled.

So, I went to a Diversity Training, and there were a few rather superficial (to me) activities and then we watched Color of Fear where these 8 men sit around in this Northern California living room talking about race. Obviously in the film there was stuff that went on behind the scenes and stuff that hit the cutting room floor, but overall I was absolutely unmoved, no - untouched, by this film.

During the discussion afterwards, I said that the film did not speak to me in any way. In my bluntness, I think I may have slightly offended the members of the diversity committee, but I thought they should know that the film may feel important to a bunch of white heteronormative folks from suburbia, but it seemed silly to me. (There was another lesbian in the training who was not as vocal, but also said that the film was outdated.)

So, shortly after that, I get an "invitation" to assist in crafting the "gender presentation" part of the agency's diversity best practices. I have felt ambivalent about this since it was presented to me - was I asked for my input because I might have something valuable to say, or was I asked for my input because I am Butch?

I will assist with this addition because I am probably one of the most aware in this area, but I feel very "token-ish".

Just wondering what others might think about this.
