In the first couple of years when you're transitioning you don't really fit into any gender, because you're changing over. You have to start getting electrolysis before you even start your therapy. But I think all the weird looks help to give you conviction in who you really are.

10 QUOTES WITH «FIRST COUPLE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word first couple.
1
Magda Apanowicz
I think 'Caprica' is a little out of left field, which is kind of what I love about it. It's a little different. The first couple of episodes are really about wrapping your head around this world. I love 'Grey's Anatomy,' but I think it's the same kind of concept: You just get lost in this world, and you believe what they're setting up.
2
Dave Attell
Sometimes it's hard to tell if a joke is working or not for the first couple of minutes.
3
Lester Bangs
I mean Iggy and The Stooges first couple of albums I think sold twenty five thousand between the two of them you know and so to talk in terms of an underground I mean you have to go really to the independent labels and things like that.
4
Jeff Beck
I play purely from the heart, y'know, and so if it doesn't work the first couple of hours, forget it.
5
William Bell
When I came out of service, the first couple of releases didn't really hit so I just took a little hiatus and sat down to see what was happening. I just glued my ears to the radio and then I started writing - the first hit record that came out was 'Everybody Loves a Winner.'
6
Steve Burns
I knew early on after the first couple episodes were fully scored and animated that we had a real quality show here. But I always questioned whether or not it would work.
7
Hilarie Burton
I think the first couple of times you do make-out scenes, you psych yourself out and it's really nerve racking.

Park Chan-wook
I became a film director, but I wasn't successful with my first couple of films, so I had to turn to becoming a film critic to make a living.
10
Perry Chen
I remember early on, in the first couple of years especially, I would run into some people that would try to put Kickstarter under the 'social good' label. And I actually had this very visceral reaction - I just didn't like that at all.
