My crappy minivan was girly, as was my cute sports car, albeit in different ways.

I agree that what's okay in the abstract, say supporting LGBT legislation or positive media portrayals, isn't always okay when it's right in your life, say having a gay son or TG spouse. Really you...

I think we're giving rural Eastern Europe a pretty bad name here, lol...

It would depend on the country and the extent of the inequality. Many second and third world countries do afford their...

The one that melted me:

I told my fiancee everything; I was trans, had been on hormones before, and wanted to transition. Time passed, weeks later she was reading True Selves on the couch, and...

I like your post.

Just IMO... ideally in a committed relationship there's some willingness to participate in what your partner likes either to please them or see if you like it. My fiancee and I...

I know I look more chickish than the average guy when I'm in guy-mode (longer hair, pierced ears, clean shave, some boobage). I act somewhat girly, but try to constrain that if we're at WalMart or...

My fiancee is quite a bit different than my mom (feistier), I'm not very similar to her mom or dad (more outgoing), and I'm not very like my mom (she's sweeter than I think I'll ever be).

Like...

Thanks for all the replies, more than I expected :)

Well, I like to (try to?) pass when I'm out because it's easier, and because it's affirming to have the way I feel translate to how I'm...

There're a lot of threads about passing, what it means, whether it's important to us, how to pass, whether or not we should use the word "pass" due to its implications, etc. I just haven't seen a...

You're so industrious, I like it :). I thought the results were sort of weird, but there's also self selection selection bias. People (like me, lol) like to post their personal stories to threads...

If it worked in our situation, I'd stay home and be a house-wife. I couldn't just do that, though, or I'd go crazy. Working part-time, having outside activities, and so on is important.

I think it's possible, but I don't think it's common to date a straight guy. The TGs who have better luck are probably those who fit more in line with preconceived notions of what's a straight...

I respected that he was so up front with everything, but it doesn't feel good to know going in you'll be dumped for someone else, and that part of the appeal is that you're something of a conquest....

I was thinking about this reading the "Crossdressing [sic] and dating guys" thread and remembering something I'd read in My Husband Betty about fantasizing while dressed. Not all fantasize, but some...

I don't think about being with guys while dressed or not; I'm in an LTR and very happy with a wonderful woman!

On the other hand, I'm more attracted to guys than girls and have dated men before....

It sounds like intimidation, and that's not appropriate at all.

I'd second that the police probably didn't like being called over nothing.

Yep, brave of you to keep shopping, but at that...

There're a lot of good answers. In addition to what others have said about honesty, I think it depends on...

Nervous:
I got into a club in a big city with a fake ID of me en femme when I was a teenager. Most of the night was fun, and I think I was too young to be scared. I don't think I got the danger...
