Sorry, I haven't read the whole thread. I don't want to get angry or depressed.
But I'm continually amazed when MTFs suggest that it's somehow easier for FTM. We all get treated as gender traitors...
Do whatever you are comfortable with, Amy. It's traditional at CD/TG support groups & forums for members to use pronouns & names that are associated with the target gender. But if you want to use a...
I'm glad that I'm not trying to crossdress in a country with a dominant Islamic culture. Do you know how hard it is for a GM to shop for essential CD supplies in such places?
We don't have many...
Here is a recent thread on this topic: wearded out by kids

I know it's a big step, Davinnia, and it can be nerve-wracking contemplating showing your SO your femme side for the first time. Nobody likes to be ridiculed, but I generally say to my friends when I...
Oops, RaleighBelle! It's so easy to mis-read things around here, even when people are trying to be clear. :)
Anyway, I'm sure Taffy won't mind me mentioning the Little Girls.

This thread reminds me of when Madonna did the sporty look, with a high pony-tail & headband. :)
It sounds like your daughter has certainly inherited the "TG friendly" gene, Randi. :D:thumbsup:

To provide a place where we can support each other & learn from one another. And maybe even understand one another.
If we can't understand and accept us, what hope do we have for wider...
It's very interesting to see all these "TG in the family" threads.
Pity your brother can't talk about it, raleighbelle. :sad:
I prefer to dress as an adult myself, but there are a...
I have generally found women to be more accepting than men, and lesbian or bi women to be the most accepting & understanding. Gay men don't tend to be that sympathetic. Of course there are...
And that's just for going to a party. Imagine what it's like for those that actually try to stand up for their rights.
Warning: do not read further if stories of violence disturb you.
:cry:

Firstly, :bighug: to those who have lost a sibling or other loved one in the struggle. Many of us have faced the dilemma; "I can be TG, or I can die", but thankfully most of us have found the support...
I think it's fair to suggest that most CD/TG people are inclined to have more questions about their own sexuality than is usual. My advice has always been, if you are bi-curious, satisfy your...
This thread still going? Wow! I suppose I should throw in my :2c:
Firstly, the issue of infidelity. It's fairly clear that the general forum opinion is that being CD or Bi is not an excuse to...
Labels can be useful to describe the different parts of the complex gender/sexuality landscape. They only become harmful when people build mental fences in that landscape & try to box us into our own...
Come on Julo & Noel, tell us all about it! I guess you are both too busy playing with your new toys. :D They are such fun, aren't they.

I believe there is a genetic component, but with these twins, I believe the influence is epigenetic: they gave each other a hormonal wash.
FWIW, this phenonmenon is well-known in other species...
Not exactly (but it would be if a genetic boy was wanting to wear ribbons & lots of pink). But it is gender-variant behaviour for a young girl to insist on not dressing in a way she defines as girly....
Earlier, I was going to suggest saying "I was reading an article by Dr Harry Benjamin...", but thought that may be too drastic. :)
But dropping a semi-famous name or two from the CD community may...
If you don't want to be found out, yes you do need to hide these things.
If your sister truly loves you, her acceptance will grow. But it may take a very long time if she remains ignorant. Do...
It's not strange at all Rachel. Almost all of us went through that the first time we came out to an SO. We get so used to assuming that we won't be accepted that it takes a while for us to adjust to...
Hi Yvonne,
I think you do need to risk outing yourself if you want to find out about your workmate. Otherwise, why should he trust that you are genuine?
Maybe wear some clear nailpolish one...
Crossdressing is a mostly harmless activity. I'm sure your sister means well. But telling someone that it comes from the devil is cruel & immoral, in my book. :( Moral behaviour means being good to...
Sorry, Sandy, you just can't cover the complex fractal, multidimensional continuum of gender & sexual orientation with just 3 choices like that!
But having made that disclaimer, I do feel somewhat...
