Jennifer, what if the person in question is not a CD, but instead a pre-op transwoman, who has never had sexual interest in men? Is this still a I-am-not-gay denial justification? While I understand...
This is great to hear. Thank you both, Brenda and Dana. If I may ask, why did you stop going?

I recently came across the upcoming Esprit conference (mid-May in Port Angeles, WA) and it looks to be really interesting (I am just starting on the path to transitioning this year). The conference's...
Who knows? Maybe they were jealous because all they had were old, cotton, threadbare granny panties and you, my dear, had on some nice, luxurious lingerie. You just never know what they might be...
I think I saw a trans sister just yesterday. I was in the local UPS Store to drop off a return item shipment (some nice but non-fitting fem shoes to Zappos!) and was running late for an important...
Isha, great post -- thank you for sharing your thoughts on how to achieve self-acceptance. I was most impressed with your intelligent and impromptu response to your well-intentioned but still...
At one point a few years ago I tried this theory on myself, dressing at every possible opportunity (at home -- even a Yugo running on 2 cylinders has a better chance of passing than me!) in an...
Paula, my experience has been that I discovered the sweet, silky softness of nylons when I was a young boy and it was immediately a compulsion with me to touch them, feel them and wear them. I made...
In fact, much of the time old clothes would be broken down by tailors and seamstresses and the fabric pieces reused until they were no longer unusable (at least for the middling and lower classes),...
Hey, don't apologize! That's a good pun. :laughing:
At this point, probably not.
But as long as we're talking fantasy pharmaceuticals, how about a pill to cure those intolerant people out there who are rude, judgmental, and intentionally cause...
Thanks to everyone for all of these wonderful responses. They are really helping me "learn the language" of this forum. Right now, all I know about crossdressing is what I have experienced in my...
In the beginning, I loved anything and everything that was soft, sheer, silky, slinky, gossamer and sensuous to the touch. My soul just seemed to utterly crave the feel of these sensations on my...
When I see GGs have trouble in heels, I also wonder if the shoes are cheaply made, have slippery insoles or bottom soles, and perhaps are not sized correctly, so they do not effectively grip the...
Ah, yes, Isha, this is it! When you write "I was out as Isha today", that is in 1st person because you said "I". But I've seen many instances of authors' writing something akin to "Isha was out...
I was alone at home for New Year's Eve but was fine with that. I was fully dressed (and so very comfortable!), had the fireplace going, and was thrilled because I had finally decided to first...
Since I have been coming to and enjoying the comments on this forum, I was immediately struck by the pervasive use of 3rd person references to the authors’ feminine alter egos when being...
Cynthia, I am struggling with this question myself. In an earlier post, I called my crossdressing a compulsion, and even then I parenthetically said I was unsure if that was the right word. There is...
There were occasional references to the character of Jack crossdressing on Will & Grace, but it was sporadic and it didn't truly seem to be in character for him, instead just an occasional throwaway...
Nikki, I am just getting started, so I have not yet revealed all -- yet. :) I was married for a very long time, but the marriage was romantically dead for most of that time, so she finally left me...
This is how I feel as well. I don't feel uncomfortable in drab any more than I feel uncomfortable breathing. It is ubiquitous, commonplace, and a total non-event. I'm used to it! A couple of years...
I have vague memories of being a little boy young enough to be put down for a nap. I remember not sleeping that afternoon, but instead finding a pair of my mother's pantyhose lying in a small brown...
I just joined and was required to give a screen name. I had never considered a female name before, so I had to think it through. I didn't want to use a name of anyone I knew at work (to avoid any...
That's a big moment, Catherine. Congratulations on being ready to take that big step. I am not as far along as you in this, but I've just reached out to make an appointment with a therapist who...
