Nice inquiry, Sarah. I've actually given this a lot of thought in recent months as I expect to have just such an opportunity in the near future. I've done a lot of professional presentations through...
Gal mode for me tomorrow heading there, Sunday heading back, and all the way in-between. Part of the experience for me.

Pamela,
At this point you can't assume it means anything at all, so don't try to read too much into it. People often feel awkward knowing what to say when presented with a highly unusual situation...
I'm sure it depends on the SO. I've certainly read many stories here where folks have been dissuaded from the healthy experimentation needed to "grow up" as a crossdresser. But this isn't always the...
Amy,
My initial thought is to tell both, and at the same time. They would be able to support each other with your information, and they would be able to work together to deal with your estate if...
Thank you Isha for doing a nice, objective study. I've often wondered the same, but haven't worked with a friend to determine the real reactions. You have me wondering now.
While it would be...
This is a lot of food for thought, Isha. I've been back and forth on my feelings about this over time, especially in the last year. Let me preface my comments by noting I'm very much a part-time...
It's much the same with me, Jennifer - right down to the buzz cut. About the only thing I do for my guy appearance is wear contacts and a decent shirt, and I hardly give it a thought. In gal mode I...
No matter the subject, confrontation only exists if you accept it. If another person attempts to confront, you have a choice of responding with confrontation, retreating, ... or trying something more...
I think most of us wonder about whether we'll go on to being transsexuals, Danielle. After all, we don't really know what causes our crossdressing, so it's difficult to understand where it will take...
It appears that very few of us have focused on the actual original inquiry, which seems to be focused on those whose spouse is "genuinely excited" about our CDing. Not surprisingly, very few of us...
Nothing unusual at all, Sara. From what I've read here and elsewhere, sexuality is quite separate from gender expression. About the same proportion of people, roughly 10% (or so I remember), are...
1) What is the number one reason you wear feminine clothing?
It helps me to express a part of me that can't stay hidden.
2) Are you open and honest with your SO about your dressing? If not, how...
Each season has some advantages for me as a midwesterner.
Winter: Long sleeves, high necks, and long pants or skirts to cover the hair on my arms, chest, and legs (part of the compromise with my...
My wife has been essential to the development of my gal mode, and especially of my ability to blend with others. She's advised me on fashion, makeup, and clothing selection for each occasion, often...
The only ones who know about Miriam, other than the support group and my wife, are our closest friends. The wife of this pair insists that I'm a good looking lady, and better looking as a lady than...
I had mine done at 51, two years ago. I work in a conservative business in a conservative state, yet have never had any problems with anyone about it. A few friends asked about it, but just told them...
I think you've received some very good advice, Pix - especially from Paula. Please keep in mind as you browse this forum that this is not a random sample of the crossdressing community, let alone of...
I was the same way for a long time, Niki. I attribute my shyness to the decades spent hiding this passion from others - something not necessary with this wife. I still internally cringe a bit when...
I had the same experience today, but I think the wool robe over the poly nightgown made for an electrifying experience. Even have the humidifier cranked up, and it didn't help. More winter fun!
...
You're quite correct, Isha. But As Lorileah also said...
This is what I count on even more. Unless I do something to seriously catch their attention and cast doubt, people will make a quick...
I don't see these as separate choices, Billie. If a relationship is really complete and worthwhile, each of those in the relationship must aid the needs of the other - as long as those needs are...
I wouldn't just sit around home while in guy mode, and I don't see any reason for it to be any different in gal mode. I find fulfillment in living a full and complete life in either mode, and that...
This has been addressed many times in recent years, citing the TSA policy and experience reports (search and find reports about every other month). All these reports have helped me to understand and...
Interesting item Jennifer. Thanks for sharing.
It seems to me that this is probably as far as the Navy can go at this point in time, and I think they're being fairly reasonable. Basically they...
