very interesting, I wonder if anyone will be brave enough to print this off and leave it somwhere..............?

I don't want to speak for her, but I'm going to comment anyway. I think you may have taken Tamara's comments a bit too literally. Having read what she has written in the past, I don't think she believes we all want to be women. In fact the way I read it, she is more saying that we want to feel like women, which I know is true for me. And living with a cd, I'm sure she knows that we only want to "be" or feel like women for a temporary period of time. If that weren't the case, we would be transexuals.

Again, I'm a little reticent speaking for her, but I like her, and she's not here to defend her words. And I think a statement like "She thinks we all want to be women" is a little simplistic sounding. and knowing Tamara from her posts, I doubt she feels that way. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

It is encouraging to know that factual info like in that article is making it's way to the mainstream. Small steps are better than no steps.

Hugs,

Melissa :)

What a good article to remember... webmd...

[Tiffany Tuesday]

I guess it means we must continu-um
wearing panties on our bumu-ums
but if our SO's got a problem-um
just find out what makes her cumu-um!

Sowee i just got a giggle about the article telling us everything we knew already yet using the word continuum ... it seemed so innappropriate and artificially erudite :)

eeek erudite??? ... they'll throw me out of the Limbo Bimbo Legs Akimbo Club for language unbecomming the brain dead!

I dunno why this suddenly has to turn into a flame war between Susan and Tamara. I'm sure nobody else cares about your petty arguments. :mad:

***************

The article puts into words so much of what I feel about myself. I am 100% hetero and I love to wear the undergarments that I find erotic on a GG. I also find breasts erotic, so ........ :cool:

The inevitable result is that I begin to fantasise that I am somebody else.

I'm quite comfortable about all that but my wife is far too blinkered ever to understand. :(

I think it's kind of cute the way Susan and Tamara quarrel

[crispy]

I think it's kind of cute the way Susan and Tamara quarrel
or frigging childish

[sarah]

Basically it seems you both have issues my suggestion is build a bridge and GET OVER IT

I also am 100% hetro as Crispy also has pointed out. For me cd, especilally and only lingerie, to me is no more than a fetish. Some may argue the difference between a fetish and being a CD, (see my post "cross dressing is it just a fetish") .The feel and the look of satin and lace is the only reason I cd or should I say dress up. I don't want to be a woman, you can call me a girl which is alright by me but I know that will never happen. I use a girls name here because I want to fit in, be the same as others, probably a mistake. But I do get confused when many if not all call thier male partners g/f or "she". Since I posted the link I thought I give my 2 cents worth.
Question...should I change my name from Sharonn to my real male gender name?
My SO is comfortable with my "fetish" to a point, and only on few occasions when I get the urge. :)

[Halo]

I would say that there is no black and white in this case.

I started dressing at age 5 or so - so I'm not sure how sexual that could have been. Later it became sexual to an extent - but hell, at age 13, just about everything turns a chap on.

Now, I'd say it's a bit of both, sometimes more of one, sometimes more of the other. Maybe later it'll change again, who knows? I know, whatever, it'll will always be enjoyable for one reason or another.

[Dragster]

Am I missing something here, I can't see any posts by Susan or Tamara! Has the censor been at work, or have they both made-up and deleted their own posts before I got here? I certainly hope so.

Like Crispy and Sharonn, I'm 100% hetero, and don't want to become a woman, I just get an enormous kick out of trying to look like one by wearing female clothes, the sexier the better. Funny, but I get a similar kick out of it when my wife (occasionally) dresses for sex. My excitement is entirely male orientated, and I suppose my utopia would be for us both to be dressed for sex, but I would still feel like a man making love to a woman, whatever I was wearing, and I think that is what you were also saying Sharonn. Unlike you, I've continued to use my male name for that reason, but if I ever get my wife to accept my "hobby", I may have to use a femme name just to differentiate between me and my alter ego.

[Jennifer_Ph]

When my girl first found out about Jennifer she thought it meant she wasn't feminine enough for me. That blew me away. She is the most beautiful woman in the world to me - she is the love of my life, the girl of my dreams. Jennifer is just a hobby, as is building off road trucks for me. It's an expression of ME, not of her. We're still working through parts of it all, and we're making progress. It's a lot tougher to be a CD than not to be, that's for sure. I think most men would leave crying if they had to go through what we do. But then they don't get to be girls, either, do they? :-)
