I am a genetic male and present as male for work and family. I live with a girlfriend and present and identify as more female at home. I typically wear makeup in tge evenings, nail polish on my toes...
About thirty-five, the person was my ex-wife. Worst decision ever.
I scored 24. I don't really care... is that narcissistic?
Real avatar photos are awesome, but beware of what you put on the internet because, as other posters have noted, photos are searchable. I feel that using photoshop to make the photos LOOK the way you...
I'm sure this is a normal thing. Most days when I get home from work I'll get changed and put on some makeup because I look better when I do. Some days I just can't be bothered, rough day at work,...
Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life -- I love the Monty Python reference -- awesome. I can hear the whistling now. Never let anyone else make you feel any kind of way. I can make anyone who tries...
Ironically, in a post-apocalyptic world self expression would be easier. I have enough guns and ammo to get through the day to day, so without having to worry about going to work every day, I would...
Funny how crossdressing appears in every culture and is taboo in every culture. Just reinforces that no matter where or when we were born, we would be in the fringe. Oh well, I just don't even care...
Art. The art of expressing the image within even when it is an imperfect representation of the inner self. It's all about Art.
Haha, this is a well thought out and funny post. I personally am more interested in art and self expression than "passing," but I do like the analogy you've created here.
Unfortunately, my ex wife couldn't even accept what was more of a goth style than crossdressing. Ironically, every time I compromised with her about many issues besides crossdressing, I lost another...
Currently 6'4" (height is decreasing with age) and 250 pounds (I'm trying to decrease this but it's not easy, I'm not really fat). Also a deep voice, but size and shape give me away before I speak.
I had similar experiences with my exwife (note the 'ex').
I don't understand this thread. If you crossdress, how can you NOT be transgender? Crossdressing is a transgender act.
I am in the same situation but have been with my current, accepting gf for over two years. My marriage was so bad that after going through the divorce and starting another relationship I figured,...
Excellent point, Nikki. Allow me to clarify that I was answering the OP, and my response was a nonsequitor to Stephanie47s post. I was talking about criminals, not soldiers. Stephanie, I also wish...
Many people do many wrong things every day, such as armed robbery or child molestation. By any criteria, there are wrong acts, and I wonder if actual criminals ever ponder the wrongness of their...
Of course. I'm sorry if my reply came across as pointed, I did not mean it that way. Misuse of teleological arguments and hermeneutics just happen to be pet peeves of mine. Please don't be offended.
Teleology doesn't apply in this case. Unless your argument is 'he crossdressed because he wanted to get out of his marriage,' or similar arguments. Even if you are clear on your own motives, and can...
I also keep my toenails painted. At home in the evenings, barefoot, they look great. Occasionally I remember during the day and laugh to myself.
There are some things that garner respect within a subculture, but not within the culture at large. For example, I am heavily tattooed, and I am respected, and respect, other tattooed people because...
I also work in health care and when I'm not wearing scrubs, I do just wear what all the other guys wear. I like to stand out by my achievements, but in some environments you just really don't want to...
I agree, Marleena. If things were as bad for me as some posters describe, I would move. Then again, sometimes if you move, you bring your problems with you. You can not help someone who feels...
I feel attracted to some tg people. In my case, though, it is a harmless fantasy type of attraction to someone on line based on a photo, or a post, or both. I don't know how far the attraction would...
