*Woof*

Say you came out to your wife or gf and her response was "Ok, I get it. But I don't agree you can just switch back and forth on your own agenda. Make a decision once and for all and stick to it: ...

You did great! There are basically two things that can happen when you're out en femme: people accept you as a woman, and you run into jerks. Being accepted is a high, and running into jerks proves...

For a slightly different point of view consider that your history shows both that you are able to control it most of the time and that you are unable to control it all the time. (Note - I'm not...

I don't like the letter idea at all. I would instead suggest raising it as a separate issue from that which you've been focussed on so far in the last 15 minutes of your session, and treating it as...

It may be that Steve is not aware of being lonely because it's a condition he's become used to and even resigned to, but when you're denise, you're expressing more of your personality and that more...

A fairly common reaction of women to t*s dressing is that they are mocking or making fun of real women. Even on the best possible interpretation, this is undoubtedly due to the fact that when...

I spent a lot of time trying to come up with a clearly feminine name that was not that of anyone in my family or circle of friends. Since I've used it, I've tried to change it a few times, but it...

You'll know it's time to come out of the closet when you start forgetting little items around the house where they are found! Just remember, if you're going to be t*, it helps to have a good sense of...

Chances are they could have looked directly at you and not recognized you - that's how powerful gender is as a determinant of perception. Congratulations! :)

It's interesting, isn't it, that transgendereds are considered farther out, more dangerous, etc. than gays - at least that's what the current bill seems to suggest. It's probably just a numbers...

You did good, hon! Be proud!

We probably need a scale of coercion/compulsion to get to the heart of this question.

If I can stop doing something because a loaded gun is held to my head, is that a choice or is that coercion?
...

I've always cried etc. When I was little, the boys said "You should've been a girl!" but what did they know!

Actually, both men and women have a wide and more or less equal range of emotions, even...

Like most I don't see any necessary connection between MPD and crossdressing/t*/GID/whatever.

It's not just with gender that my personality changes but with individuals, contexts etc. ...

That's it!!!! That's being a woman, or close enough!

It's a good question, because I can remember very clearly making the transition. Of course, my own development was gradual and it's taken me a long time to get this far. Many people seem to develop...

It really goes both ways, but one is more common than the other. That is, some start out thinking they are ts-inclined and end up realizing they are just cders; others start out thinking they are...

My earliest dressing, which hardly counts except to those like ourselves who think it is significant, was wearing my mother's hats and scarves and rings from her dresser, or her old high heels from...

Three comments:

1. If wearing panties results in an hyperactive mind, it's your mind keeping you awake not the panties. Quiet your mind and you will sleep - you may have to take the panties off...

When it happens, I try to come up with a statement that neutralizes the discussion, that is, that makes the person or the bystanders realize that there is more to the issue than the simplistic pov...

Let's not make too much of this. This particular club has been known not to welcome t*s for years, and that fact doesn't mean that LGB&T don't have a lot of issues and a lot of political objectives...

Perhaps a slightly different perspective:

My so was initially rejecting, finally accepting of my transgenderism. However, she made it clear that she had no interest in and was troubled by any...

I've quit while on a heavy dose of Prozac. Of course, Prozac is known to suppress testosterone as well as to relieve depression, so which effect was in play? There have been a number of reports of...

Once at Penney's in the lingerie department, a saleswoman decided to embarrass me by following me around and saying in a very loud voice "May I help you, SIR. May I help you SIR?" I replied, "Yes,...
