I grew small boobs during testosterone suppression during prostate cancer treatment. The suppression caused other things in the femininzation department, but those all came back to various degrees....

We are all different when it comes to transitioning. For some it is the only path to happiness in a generalized way; for others it is more of a fantasy. I explored transitioning about 10 years ago,...

Not everybody crossdresses for the same reason. Using a generalization that is way too generalized, we do it because it expresses the way we feel. Now that needs to be tied down better. The...

Congrats on 51. We had our 53rd in March. We have found that people tend to be a bit surprised that two people can love being together after half a century and still not be tempted to kill each...

Sounds wonderful to me. I am an only child but I always wanted a sister. It is so wonderful that your sister supports you so much. Obviously she cares about your happiness even if it is a bit...

My wife of 53 years uses makeup everyday, but you would not know it. She uses it to soften the features of old skin and not to create a new face, so to speak. I pretty much do the same thing. The...

I am so sorry this happened to you. It must have been a very difficult environment. The fear must have been paralyzing sometimes. Toxic masculinity which seems to be rather common these days is...

I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, medicine today tends to be on the whole body approach rather than the individual ailments. After all, everything is connected and your sense of self...

Joining a group is a great idea. You get to meet several all at once and will probably find at least one that relates closely to how you approach expressing your gender identity. In going out in a...

I am mostly a mix and match person. I usually have something that identifies as female-like on most days, all day. It may be a women's T, a pair of flats, panties, etc.

I don't fully dress often...

I see them occasionally, mostly at the grocery store. I live near the University of Denver so there are plenty of students out and about. CD's and TG's are not that common, but Non-binaries are seen...

Great advice for everyone, no matter what your gender is. We are all on the same boat drifting through the Universe, so we might as well be nice to each other.

Ah, shoot. But sometimes it is good to have a wise moderator around. :battingeyelashes:

Good response, Ordinary Guy. As the definition says, the requirement is to "self identify all of the time or part of the time..." If you are male and you don't identify as female-like, at least part...

Hmmm, Angela. 20% huh? We had a 20% chance of rain last night and the 1/2" of rain in 15 minutes flooded the street. Just saying. (Actually just teasing you.)

Let us know what you do and...

My mother was very domineering and my biological father abandoned us when I was about one. He came around sometimes and I tried to like him but ultimately failed. But, as Kim said, that aspect as...

Jenn, you make an excellent point. The more we are seen and people realize we are not aliens from another world determined to snatch them and convert them (see old SciFi movie "The Body Snatchers")...

Emi, you have asked some really difficult questions for which there really aren't any firm answers. It is true that for most, dressing brings peace, comfort, and calmness. But others run counter to...

Jacques and Larissa I agree completely. The "crossdressing" label really needs to go. It has always bothered me because it pegs those who engage in that as a minority group outside the rest of...

Wonderful post, Char, and that must have been a fascinating environment to be in. In my view, it is the way it should be with everyone and not as remarkable as it is in this day. I also share your...

Doc, you bring up a really good issue and many others present their own versions of what I see as the reality. Classifications are only as good as the definitions and in the gender variant world the...

Wonderful. The fact is that some males have legs that some women would love to have. Just goes to show that is some ways women and men are more alike than they are different. We tend to focus on the...

I don't know. I am partly in the same situation. I had prostate cancer a few years ago and went on 6 months of testosterone suppression which had significant effects on my body, much like you. Today...

Larissa, I am another one that is more or less like you. It is probably the most common state of affairs, until, as you say, you get into the younger folks where things, by comparison, can get...

I wear dresses but consider them more formal. Skirts are more casual, nice and cool in the summer, and give my body full movement. Dresses are prettier and more feminine, but, like pants, they tend...
