I'm trans, so I'll play vicariously. I watched a couple that I would describe as: Only the SO of a CD would look at her partner with concern as they tried to decide who would go to the ladies room...

Hi Tammy,

I'm fully transitioned but for the details, so take my advice and ratchet it down until it fits. It appears from your initial post that you are as accepting as you can be given the...

That would be very nice, but we'll have to see if there's any way to coordinate schedules. Having a familiar face around is always nice, but especially in a hospital. I have a hard time staying down,...

Thanks Katey; One of my hopes when I write such posts, is that those who do experience life as bigender, or agender, or cisgender CD's (as some believe themselves to be), or any other human, will be...

I don't know that my dysphoria has increased over time. I DO know that once I knew what it was, there was no escaping it. Everywhere in my life.

I've read a couple of the threads questioning individual reasoning for being TS, CD or [insert point of spectrum here] and wanted to relate some recent observations.

It occurred to me on the drive...

You're bound and determined to see G & T come out my nose aren't you! See what I did there?:heehee:

What options for breast growth that doesn't screw up your genitals? None, except forms; stick to them (or stick them to you). From experience here, DO NOT try to develop breasts if you intend to...

Perhaps for you or other confirmed CDs; I do not get the impression the OP is in any category at this point and I support the gender counseling, but I could introduce you to at least three lesbian...

Hello all,

I feel the need to pass on the big happening of the day! Recently, I've had some difficulty and had to have friends vouch for me in situations that require ID, First, I'm older and no...

You'll find plenty of opinions and stories from us here about these topics, but with regards to the second question, what time of year and what am I wearing?

This is very much my situation as a very rare event, which it is even rarer to survive without permanent damage occurred in my life. I was advised by many medical professionals to identify sources of...

It seemed disparate given the age spread, but perhaps I was ignorant of the undercurrents and alternative definitions!:)

Hello Ladies,

I had a great time visiting with and listening to the wonderful voice of Lori at the Black Crown last night. I met a few of the regulars and was made to feel at home within moments....

I guess one way of looking at this would be to recognize that with a TS, you're not talking to men and this comment might be seen by some to be trans phobic. On the other hand, would it make sense to...

I've made a couple of posts lately that have pointed some of the difficulties of transition. Not for sympathy, but by way of background, I've got a lot going on, much of it highly stressful.

I've...

Oh, geez. Thank you so much Samantha! Seriously. Your response was considered and accurate. I would like to interject one 'however'. As one who knows: I cannot imagine anyone wanting to be transexual...

I love those days. I have not had the depth of the beautiful interaction you describe Aly, but sometimes it seems even the smallest gesture made with gentle compassion can turn my day golden.

I...

This mostly rings true for me as well. I am into my second year with hormone adjustments and at this point, it's somewhat of an 'auto-tuck'. :o While I think the TG spectrum can accommodate CD and...

Hello again everyone,

I have recently applied (by drinking Guinness) for the 'Longest Lurker' title. At least in my state. Ok, my county. My town? Ok, for sure I've got it on this computer and no...

Yep. I have gone to Tri-Ess functions, CD groups, etc., and I do not fit in. Those who CD and can be happy with their lives as part time males, more power to you. You, at a societal level, DO have a...

Personally, I think Beverly makes some very good points which match up with my experience. Go slowly, explain well (and neutrally) and look for positive responses; but don't expect them...
See where...

I agree the number of people that would be considered 'transgendered' would be phenomenal if truly known. However, that assumes the definition stands in light of the current 'bipolar' definition of...

I've carried various bags and purses for years in any mode. In male mode, I have way too many things to carry. I look ridiculous if I try to stuff all that crap in my pockets, so I carry what some...

I agree with a portion of what Sherry said, in that, I would much prefer if there were no taboo attached to dressing. I am absolutely happy as a male, but cannot deny my dual-gendered nature and...
