I know where you're coming from. I've been crossdressing my whole life, but I never told anybody until I told my best friend a few months ago. She was so accepting and supportive that I started telling a lot of people, the ones that I knew I could trust and who would support me. Then I started with a counsellor at school and I told her. Then I started coming here...and you're right. We are normal. All of us. We have nothing to be ashamed of, and nothing to apologize for.

[Lisa Golightly]

I'd hate to be normal... Now extraordinary I can dig ;)

After years of crossdressing and then going to professional couseling for a year. I decided i am glad i am not normal:D :D

[Joy Carter]

I was told by two counselors not to do it. Neither could tell me why other than the obvious. I went to Shrink for medication monitoring and he told me just don't get hurt. I think it was good advice because so far I'm feeling fine thank you.

I've said it before... What is normal for one is not for another. We are all different, with different views on people, styles, and even outselves.
Soooo... We are all normal, unless you are a psycho killer or something.

Sorry to post again here, but I'm suddenly reminded of a quote from the movie Shrek. "Look, I'm not the one with the problem. It's the rest of the world that seems to have a problem with me."

As a newbie that one I would have to agree with the most. I like it right to the point. :D

Also wonderful movie about differences and how they are seen by other

Wife and I went to a counselor. He said, "The wages of sin is death. Why were you wearing lipstick?"
At the risk of being obvious, I said, "Because I am a crossdresser."
Made perfect sense to me. He looked frustrated.

Abnormal is wasting your life away working for the man in some office where noone gives a damn what you do or do not do
And pay's you accordingly that is abnormal and most people do not even care to know it.

It is a catch 22 situation!

Suzy!

As long as I'm happy, as long as I haven't been locked up in prison or a mental institution, as long as people still talk to me, I guess I'm doing allright.

[Kimkandy]

I always thought the :2c: rule of thumb is... if you have to ask are you normal... then you're probably :devil: not... why would you want to be :cool: normal when there are so many wonderful :alien: alternatives anyway?

I am not normal to society! to our culture, I'm a freak, but that's OK. I'm down with that now. I actually love not being normal. Yesterday, my SO and I went to our local brewery and some "Normal" guys in business suits walked in and started up a conversation. To me, they looked like cartoons, but they think that they are normal. Normal is what you are when you don't rock the boat, when you have the right hair cut fitting your right sex. Normal is when you fit into your neigborhood and go to the right church, synagoge or mosque and don't look weird. I'm tired of doing that dance myself. I embrace the difference, the unusual. Let's party!hugs

im not normal and i like it that way :D

[Nina_Hyena]

is there really such a thing as 'normal'?
change will always redefine it.:heehee:

[noname]

We are normal. Today I was thinking, I'd be crazy to think I could meet everyones expections. Nope, nothing wrong with being expressionative.

Let me add. Could we be crazy? I'm sure we all remember the old apple add

Here is to the crazy ones
misfits, rebels, trouble makers
round pegs in the square holes
the ones who see things differently

you can quote them glorify or vilify them
the only you can't do is ignore them

[Suzie S.]

j9113, I'm so glad that this forum has helped you in your journey of discovering yourself and accepting who you are. It has helped me alot also.
You are so right, there is nothing wrong with any of us! We are 'normal'.

I just hate that word normal. Seems so vague, as we are all such complex creatures. We deserve a much nicer sounding word, don't we?!:tongueout

[Paulacder]

I've always thought that I was normal, It's the rest of the world that screwed up.........:D

[Kate Simmons]

What the hell is "normal"? It's kinda like the "Lake Wobegone" syndrome, there is no such thing. We are all extraordinary and unique individuals, especially the folks here. We balance out the energies in the world. We are who we are for a reason. Part of the fun is finding out that reason and utilizing it to the best of our abilities.:happy:

[PaulaJaneThomas]

I'd hate to be normal... Now extraordinary I can dig ;)

+1 :thumbsup:

[Angie G]

Define Normal? I can't because the more I learned about people in general the more I learned we are all too different to define normal.

So if you think you are normal you are insane. Because to be Normal one must be abnormal in this crazy world.

And one can also replace Normal with weird and strange.

A normal person is a person you don't know everything about yet.

[Sweet Jane]

Hi

reminds me of a Skyhooks song

I'm normal, yes I'm normal
Normal as anybody can be
I'm normal, yes I'm normal
Theres no one as normal as me

as for me......I don't feel normal. I certainly fall near one of the the low ends of societies Bell Curve of binomial distribution for what appears normal......but I am me, and I can't change that.

[chantal rebbecca]

Normal is everybody doing what society says is acceptable chantal

[marie354]

Unless you play exectly into the stereotypical roles of today, then there is no "real" definition for normal. (and she sings)... You're normal, I'm normal, we are all normal today. (I know not a very femme voice... hehe)

[Alyla]

Normal? Oh dear! How boring! And pleasantly undefinable. I fit somewhere in that spectrum, and I am rambling. I hope we all can accept our proclivities; I for one enjoy mine. Motorcycles, woodworking, poetry, and the others have always set me apart. It feels good! Our "normal" world needs some rectifying, wish there was a magic diode for it. Snap us back into alignment.

Maybe this is all is just a way for us to learn about others, people. I must have been very unaccepting in a previous life ::smiles::. I think everyone should fight normalcy and/or complacency. But I have been told I don't think right.

No matter where you are on the spectrum, just look to the left and the right, and you will find that we are all normal from where we are standing, the ones close to you won't be that much diffrent than you, so it is the ones way down there, left or right, that is the abnormal ones, and if you look way down the spectum of human behavior, you may find infact your a little dull compared to some of those standing in other places. Now me, I like where I am at on the chart, right next to the lingerie section!!!:cheeky: :cheeky:

[Charleen]

Ain't never been "normal". I think I know where you are coming from though, before I found this site I worried for years why I HAD TO wear woman's clothes. I found I was not alone at this site. What a relief after 40 years of angst and guilt! This site has given me the ability to come to terms with who I am, and the personal acceptance of my CDing.
Love and xxxx, Lily
