Lisa,

If you don't mind a recommendation, might I suggest that you try the Metropolitan Community Church? There is one in Charlotte and while I don't attend there I can safely say that you should...

Unless he has photos of you actually wearing the clothes you still have a fair amount of latitude where deniability is concerned. I would advise saying nothing at all unless the subject is brought up...

I think that ReineD has said it better than most would. In the past I have always advocated giving people - particularly family - as much time as they need to come to terms with our coming out. For...

Sent you a PM - Hang in there brother - no matter what direction we are going we are all one community. In that spirit I'll add this piece that a friend sent me when times were hard for me...

As a member of and having served on the Board of Directors at Metropolitan Community Church of Greater St. Louis I would encourage anyone that feels the need to worship enfemme to join us or any MCC...

From the look of things it would appear that the body found in the Sacramento River was indeed a victim of a hate crime - the piece below is by the author of the piece in the original post. To all of...

Bad enough if a sister died by her own hand but now news reports are now saying that it may have been murder - a hate crime.

If you are in the Sacramento area be careful and watch out for each...

Rest in Peace Sister -

The chances are that no matter the circumstances of how you came to be in the river that a serial killer seldom remarked had a hand in it.

And that killers name is...

But we still need the basics - name, cause of death etc.

Authorities recovered the body of a 22-year-old transgender woman from the American River...

Yes, you mods can move this if you see fit - but I am posting this here for good reason. That reason is that the leading cause of death in the transgender community is suicide - it is an ugly truth...

An Irish Friendship wish...

May there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to...

I knew that Holly was merely hiding and that given the right time and place she would come back. Welcome home girl - we are all relieved to know that things are getting back to normal! Hang in there...

Late to this thread - blame it on a really chaotic schedule and a tendency to lurk rather than post lately. What you are going through is common to many of us both CD and Trans - there are times when...

Like Karen said - for right now I would advise keeping the activity and thoughts to yourself where family and friends are concerned. Keeping it private for now will give you the time to work out your...

The thing to remember is that like everyone else out there, women come in all shapes and sizes. I'm 6'4" and am transitioning to living full time as a woman. Incidentally, there are two natal women...

Sarah,

If there is any chance that the kids could access your favorites list while "just looking around" you might want to look at a program called My Personal Favorites by Webroot. It allows you...

I think we've gone a bit overboard in this thread tbh... out of hand... etc.. and instead of carrying this on, we need to fix it, sort out what's going on, find out why you're not happy, let us know...

With all respect it ain't always just the FTM guys that feel like they aren't receiving the respect that they deserve. Tristan raises a good point and at times I've seen the same thing happen to the...

I'd normally not comment on a situation of this sort - but as an MTF transwoman I will to the extent of pointing out that getting into a relationship with a guy can be very dangerous territory both...

CG-GG and Teddybear,

I fully agree that being open and honest with a partner about who and what we are is in theory the best policy - if your partner is open minded enough to accept the idea and...

For most of us here the budget is the big limitation - a personal laptop is the ideal solution but it is likely too expensive for many. Others here have mentioned using a USB stick/key and Portable...

Not as uncommon as you might think - I know several couples here in the St. Louis are that fit that description. In each case there is an MTF trans woman and an FTM trans guy. I also know of several...

Sharon and others have touched on this to an extent, but I'll add my thoughts about "passing". Equal to or perhaps even more important than outfits, makeup, hair (wigs), shoes, etc. is your attitude,...

Some of those who have posted here have given very good advice. For that first time out a trip to a known friendly venue is a very good idea. My own first time out was to a local predominantly LGBT...

There is always the option to tell everyone to grow up and declare all the restrooms on the premises to be unisex. This is common at events with large transgender/LGBT attendance. Personally, I've...
