Vale, that is exactly how I feel about Bowie, too. Thank you for expressing it so eloquently.

Last Monday while driving to work I heard on the radio that Bowie had a new album coming out on Friday...

Hi Krisi, thanks for the poll! Your posts are always poignant and sincere and usually ring true for me.

Now then, you probably don't need a 90th or so reply, but my wife is typically around a 2....

Hi Jackie,
We share the same femme name and I think the same internal conflict. The timing of your post struck me because our situations are so similar and just now I am dealing with the exact same...

Hi Sarah,
I fall into the same cycle every year - roughly half the year dressing and half the year surpressing.
I call it my seasonal gender disorder. ;)
Actually my last hiatus was about a year...

Company suggestion box, here I come! :daydreaming:

Thank you, Ms. Crossed!

Hi Jessie,

I absolutely do find it easier to confide in a woman rather than a man, at least when we have a personal relationship with the person.

Essentially, we're leaving the frat to join the...

Hi Anita,
I'm in the same boat - a measly 145 posts in 7+ years. I read a lot here and appreciate all the insight, advice, and affirmation, but simply must try to participate more. :)

Thanks for the thoughtful post, Sai!

I too am blessed with an understanding wife and do my best to reciprocate. :love:

Work and helping my wife with our overlords (4 and 2 yr old daughters) is about all I have time for lately.
Kids take all your energy, time, and money - definitely not conducive to cross-dressing!...

Richelle, isn't it great when our SO's accidentally out us like that? Could be deadly in the wrong company, I suppose, but usually it's just a cute sign of acceptance (resignation?)

FWIW, I get...

Pink fog is something I first heard of here on the forum, years ago after first joining, and I instantly related. My understanding is it's a bender -- an extended preoccupation/obsession with all...

Hi Lexi, I'd say your boyfriend was a rare find, but as an encouraging gf you are like one in a million!
Obviously it is destiny :daydreaming:
Please take your time and enjoy exploring and refining...

Hi Anna, welcome to the forum! Your bf is truly lucky to have somebody as caring as you.

I can't offer much other than what's been posted already (I especially agree with Theresa's and Nadine's...

Isha, thank you for such an insightful post! Sadly, it just confirms what most of us have learned firsthand, but still, a very admirable sociology experiment. I've gotten a few "WTF looks" myself...

Violet, that was brilliant!
Thank you for the laughs - I pray you find your purse soon. ;)

Kristina, I loved your Mardi Gras recap! Thanks for sharing what sounded like a fabulous time. Partying outside seems like ancient history for those of us in the snowy north. :(

When the stars align and I do get a chance to get out, I take it. I hate that "all dressed up and no place to go" feeling, and don't want to confine my femme self to a self-imposed bubble.

Kristina, I'm reading some of your blog entries now and really appreciate the work and spirit you put into it. Thank you!
Your pep talk for us fear- or shame-ridden girls who can't get out the door...

Vanessa, your post really resonates as just this past Sunday I had a "failure to launch." My wife took our baby and preschooler and gifted me with 3 glorious hours to do as I pleased, as long as I...

Bethany, my thoughts exactly... I feel like crying when the nail polish remover comes out, far too soon.
All that work for a mere moment's bliss... I envy GG's :P

Thank you for this chance to...

Joann, I agree with AnonymousinMaryland on this being a good topic. Just calling our feminine ambitions a hobby doesn't quite seem to do them justice, but I suppose "hobby" can cover anything from a...

Joanne, I hope that book I leant you wasn't among the stuff that got tossed!!

Just kidding, of course - trying to make light of an awful situation.
That was quite a mean thing your GF did..!

Karren, I'm intrigued by the foot binding. I wear women's 12w shoes so there is a lot of incentive for me to drop just a bit.
I bet lots of girls are in the same situation. Plus I was depressed to...

One sunny day on my third ever excursion out as Jacky, I parked in a shopping center near Lane Bryant. Shut off the car, fixed my hair (wig) freshened up my lippy, and grabbed my purse to go. All...

Hi MonkeyT,

I would say simply to go with the flow and keep an open dialogue with your wife. You certainly don't want to add more stress to your life either way. If you do have the urge to...
