gail's story!!

thanks, one of these times I do hope to get to one of those conventions like SCC or something!!

Hi Gail,

You aren't alone in Alaska. Back in 1999 or so I found the home page of a girl from Anchorage, so there's at least one more of us up your way. Finding each other is the problem.

Keep in mind that supposedly 10% of males are crossdressers. I often think of this when I'm in a group, such as down at the gun club, and wonder which of the other roughly three dozen guys who compete each week are fellow CDers. Or who else at a car rally are CDers? My driver? One of the service crew guys? Someone on a different team? One of the checkpoint workers? Ah, the mystery.

Maybe someday your parents will listen and talk about this with you.

Can I ask how old you were when they caught you? and have you tried since to explain to them what it means to be transgendered? or are they set in their ways, like most parents, and no amount of explaining will make them understand?

Hey sweetie,

I have been dressing a very long time and still hide it from everyone except my wife and the wonderful ladies (and gents) in this forum. I understand how alone you must feel.

The reason I mention this is that in the past few weeks I've started to talk to all of you (well, write to all all you) and it has made me feel so very much better. I am much more at peace with this, and much,much more relaxed. My "hubby" has noticed the difference and I think she may be a little sorry when we have to put JJ away for the first half of the summer.

Talk to us! We all pretty much know what you are experiencing and we are here to help you in any way we can.

Not that it matters, but you are a cutie!

Give yourself a big hug from me.

PS. On my monitor the blue type is very hard to read - could you try a different color?

I loved the pictures in your profile. I also liked the patriotic ones. great job.

You should not feel bad abput who you are and what you want to do. But, I have been to Alaska a few times and I can see how tough it would be to be seen out and about. I don't know what part of the state you live in, but the smaller the town the tougher it would be. But stick to your desires. You are a very beautiful woman and should be proud of it.:love:
