This is a dangerous question to answer, choose your words carefully!

Wow, very noticeable difference. The bangs look very nice and just an overall more polished look. I haven't done that yet. Once they are cut, that's it! Lol. So I've been nervous about it but after...

Haha, food was fine. Got, what else, a salad. I'm really trying to get to a 29 inch waist but it ain't happenin'

Well, after much anxiety leading up to my last show shopping adventure, I went on another this weekend.

I went to the local wig boutique because I wanted some new long locks. A friend of mine...

I struggle with this almost every waking moment. Yeah, I feel great anxiety in guy mode, a lot. Not always, I have guy friends and enjoy guy things. But, lately, I don't like it, I feel trapped in...

Thanks again everyone for your encouragement. As I posted earlier, it did go well. I'm working on setting up my next one!

That is such a beautiful story! It must feel wonderful to have shared that with someone you love and gotten the positive reaction. Thank you for sharing the happy thoughts!

That sucks! I wouldn't worry though.

I am increasingly comfortable with the fact that I am somewhere on the spectrum. I'm increasingly comfortable with presenting as female. But not so comfortable as to where on the spectrum I fall and...

Hmmm, I'm not sure what's next. Possibly out to eat. .. Really fear the bathroom situation though.

Awesome! Good for you, I'd love to go to a MAC. That sounds like a wonderful day just enjoying being yourself.

Field Report: Mission Accomplished

Ok, I did it! I thank EVERYONE for their encouragement and advice. I put on my jeans, black camisole, nice belted eggplant cardigan, and ballet flats. I did a...

WOW! Thank you all for offering your encouragement, tips, advice, and cautionary tales!

Let's just say, yes, damnit, I'm going to go. I need to. I know I won't be attacked in a shoe store, so...

So, I go out about once a month, to CD friendly venues. I attend TriEss, we go to "the club" (which actually just closed in Manchester which sucks) sometimes to TG Fashions parties, etc. But, I have...

I'm definitely in a snowball of obsessiveness and have been for sometime. Is this just obsessive behavior or discovery of deeper feelings? I don't know. I wish I did.

However, I could certainly...

It's OK to whine, we all need to verbalize things.

My wife is like that but more accepting/tolerant I guess. She does those same girl friend act things and while she doesn't get upset visibly, she...

We call this a black orchid, though I'm not sure it's the correct name.

1 part vodka (absolut) 1 part blue curacao, 1 part cranberry juice. On the rocks, shaken.

It's very yummy and easy...

Oh my, I don't know where I would be without my TriEss sisters. Each group is only as good as it's members but mine is full of some of the warmest, most supportive people I've ever met. I had only...

That's awesome Julie! Amy is as well, sounds like you couldn't have a better big sister.

OMG, the LotR references are killing me. Awesome!

I've been to trans friendly venues only, so far, but want more!

Good for you! That took some serious determination. I hope that you made some new friends, they make ALL the difference.

Right there with you on the Father. Every day I try to be a father that won't be a source of hangups!

I think there is some sort of evolutionary programming to reject homosexuality. The reaction is so visceral, it just has to be. It is reinforced by millenia of social programming, with some...

Yah, I mean we all have this inner sense of "This is good, or this is bad." Some are just better at it than others! :)

There are so many factors, age appropriate, venue appropriate, body type...

Thank you for all the congratulations and well wishes!

It seems that the 2nd year has been better for most. I hope so, I fear some sort of recoil, but then I'm a nervous Nelly. :)

Like Nadine...
