My Pendleton wool shirt. It may be weird, but there's something about that shirt. It doesn't scream "Woman in menswear!" which is an image I don't really like, the cut and the lines and the rich...

I haven't been here in quite a while, but wow, has my life gotten interesting.
I'm getting a divorce. Obviously, ambivalence abounds, but where my own identity and happiness are concerned, I'm...
Financially speaking, you are probably actually better off as a single parent, because you may be more eligible for assistance. Look into section eight housing and other assistance.
As for the...
I've only ever had arthroscopic surgeries and those hurt enough for me. I would only ever consider surgery it very, very good results were very likely.
One think to consider is that it sounds...
Well, I call everyone "dude," all the time. It's a real challenge remembering not to address clients as "dude". But mostly guy, gentleman, sometimes man. Man mostly in literary usage--not only...
Because I have recurrent bouts of severe depression, I should see a therapist regularly. Haven't been able to afford to for a long time, but my spouse recently got a new job that comes with...
Ze, I can also relate, but not so much with gender identity but with religious identity. Nearly a decade ago, for about ten months, I lived a secular life, exploring normalcy, sexuality, non-kosher...
Well, I'm losing muscle definition in my upper body following an injury/surgery, and I certainly feel like the increasing softness is not as masculine, but I don't question the masculinity of men who...
I would have gotten into a LOT less trouble in nursery school/kindergarten for playing with the boys.
I would not have been taught how to cook or sew.
I would have been required to learn...
Theo. I just like it. I identified with a character in a book by that name a while back, and I kind of like Teddy Roosevelt. I've gone about recovering from asthma much the same way he did, with...
A long time ago, when I starting to use the web, I was also interested in flying kites. My first large kite was a 12-foot Delta, a kite so called because of its shape.
I have used iterations of...
Isn't it just amazing the way our passive-aggressive attempts to control other people so rarely work out the way we decide they should? :heehee:
See, if a person wears Axe around me, my main thought is "damn, I can't breathe so good." Life was more fun before asthma. :sad:
My spouse and I both use Degree for Men, and find it mutually...
No, horrifying isn't close to a strong enough word. Nothing like a parasite living off your body, turning you not only weaker, sick, and miserable, but also unbearably feminine. And everyone around...
Somehow, after your litany of reasons why my approach to my life is wrong and inappropriate and your recognition that your litany was aggressive and the implicit suggestion that you intimidate me, I...
Eh, I'm a lawyer. Overthinking rather goes with the territory.
The pain meds are all part of the gender issue. Recovering from from diagnostics to figure out if my shoulder can be repaired. ...
Thanks Anne. Yeah, that's what I've been doing. I seem to be doing an orgy of posting tonight, probably because of the combination of can't seem to get to sleep and prescription pain meds loosening...
Well, my well-thought-out post just got eaten again.
My own fault, too cowardly to click the box to stay logged in.
To sum up: Perhaps people don't see ftm CD-ers because there is no...
I've been lurking so much and writing so little. On the one hand, there is so much to say. On the other hand, I have had a whole lot of the marginalization that seems to be a part of the ftm...
I was raised without any recognition that gender or orientation outside the community-recognized norms existed. Playing with boys was not allowed. I got in trouble regularly in kindergarten for...
My spouse has one of these, and when he puts it on, I have played the wife and assisted in pleating and belting. Always felt like that was the wrong way 'round though. Eventually I sewed some cheat...
I haven't had sex with many people, so it is hard to state a rule, but I am most attracted to women. In the past, however, I have found that my anatomy renders sex with women supremely unsatisfying.
I associate pink with campaigns for breast cancer awareness and the relentless marketing built on that so-called cause. Yeah, my uncle had breast cancer. Not a fan of the pink thing there. And I'm a...
