Hi Emily,
I'm not looking for correlation between religion and crossdressing, but rather distribution. Is it representative of the general population that there will be some whose religion is...

Hi Emily,
I'm not looking for correlation between religion and crossdressing, but rather distribution. Is it representative of the general population that there will be some whose religion is...
If you ask the religion demographic question again, I'd like to see subcategories, especially for the "other" (third-highest percentage) and Christian (to see breakdown of...
I tried a few names, and one I kept for a few years, but I think I've settled on a feminine derivative of the masculine name on my birth certificate. (I've also tried different styles of dress,...
Queen Helene Natural Mint Julep, from health-food groceries. It's a distinctive scent, not really gendered. You might want to be careful if you shave--sometimes the alcohol base stings even at full...
How does your style of dressing and your imagination of how you'd dress/live as a woman compare to your thoughts of how you might actually appear today if you were born and raised female?
I think...
Yes. I'd probably respond if she mentions it again, saying something like "Is there something about you that attracts crossdressers?" Then say that you CD in private and nobody knows. See where the...
One common interpretation of "drab" is that it's an acronym standing for "dressed as a boy" (taken from "drag" for "girl"). What you describe is called underdressing, where you might wear underwear...
No more total purges for me. It's happened several times throughout the more than 25 years since I bought my first items. And, like others, I wish I still had some of those clothes. Used to be that...
Even if it's taking small steps, try to speak up. It won't change the macho men's minds immediately, but they should be reminded that it's another human being they're beign bigoted about.
Congratulations, Roberta, on your congregation being so positive about your ownership of crossdressing. Let us know how thing progress--there could be discomfort and confusion when you decide to...
I took modern dance for a PE credit--I could wear leotards and ballet slippers and appear androgynous. Never did learn to dance, though.
No, Lori. Examine what it is you love about the partner, and do a lot of personal searching about the give and take within a relationship. Some things an individual can accept even if she or he...
Hi Roberta,
I'm glad you can be so open to your congregation, and best wishes for continued welcome in church. If you had included links to resources about transgender addressed by your...
It's certainly all right and good to dress if that's relaxing for you and making you feel closer to her. And it's also okay if you choose to keep it private, not telling others or going out.
I argue that a person doesn't have to go through childbirth or even conception to be a complete woman. And a man doesn't have to sire a child to be complete, either. One can be fully human without...
Phil_Jessica said it well. One additional aspect is that everybody can have a hard time comprehending that other people deny what she or he likes, would like to be, or is drawn to. So a woman not...
I suggest that J**** not purge. I've done that several times, until I relaized that the urges return and I'm better psychologically, physically, and in outlook by seeing to those needs than resisting...
Maybe you shouldn't tease her anymore about the top knot. She was reacting to that more than threatening to out you. And I second the advice that you explore a few other churches, especially those...
It's not a quick fix, but there's the old XBX program, now available on the Internet. Probably close to 50 years ago, the Royal Canadian Air Force came out with the 5BX (basic exercises) for men and...
Unless you want to hear another rant, you might revise your question. Taking the spouse's name has nothing to do with being 24/7 en femme. It's a feminist choice--if you're going to have a family...
I've gotten compliments on my scent sometimes, and it's my deodorant--Queen Helene Natural Mint Julep, sold at health food stores. But I've moved to another city and can't find it here. Other than...
To add to the thread, does anybody know what the difference is between men's and women's electric razors besides packaging?
No way, if it's mind, soul, body and gender. I'm too attached to my own mind and soul, and hope to hold onto both until I die.
There's a book about to come out that might add to your insight. She's Not the Man I Married: My Life with a Transgender Husband, by Helen Boyd (author of My Husband Betty) will be published...
Interesting topic about the mysteries. What makes me wonder is the variety of crossdressing among CDs. There are those for whom CDing happens in phases or cycles and they're fine the rest of the time...
