Hi Keichan,
Have you been to the Long Tall Sally website?
Have fun,
Kate
Daily. Before work in the morning and before changing for work. And after work and on weekends most of the time I'm home and not out working on the house or yard or shopping or doing errands. My wife...
I would so hope also to wake up a size 6, or 8 at the most, and be several inches shorter. And to have my entire wardrobe "downsized" to fit the new me.

Hi Susan. I would strongly encourage you to make a change, based on what you have reported. You are now on multiple journeys of change and growth. You need recovery supports that "get it" on all...
What do you think Robin? What's your theory?
I would argue there is more, much more, to everything (and maybe less too) than it seems. All of our experience "here" happens in a seemingly limited...
Barbara Jo, I read this post first yesterday, and I'm still green with envy from what you describe. Lucky girl. What would it be like today if we all had available to us the styles from that era?
...
Jaylah, tell me you were not the least bit effected by a young Stevie Nicks suddenly appearing on the scene dripping (beautifully) in black chiffon and lace?
What memories...

This is when I first became serious about dressing. I purchased my very first long black full lace dress then. It was absolutely beautiful. Maybe the prettiest dress I've ever owned. With matching...
I would love to have more time to enjoy this and other activities. It would be wonderful to be able to have several days dressed, listening to music, watching movies, reading, cooking, doing "not...
At 6'4" and around 210-215 pounds, dressing is a challenge. Going outside the home I do not even consider as an option as I would never see myself as "passable". I wear sizes 20-24 or 1 to 3X, and...
While still dressing every day, I suppose I dress a bit less being busy with outdoor work when home. I do enjoy the change in weight of fabrics and long and colorful lightweight summer dresses are...
Soooo pretty!
Good for you!
Kate
What a wonderful paradigm shift Celeste! Editing... So I need to "edit" my closet and drawers!
Kate
Leigh, good for you. Yes, perspective changes with point of view. As does time in that position. I think Isha is hinting ay this. Things change over time. Acceptance is the key "they" say. And I hope...
All I know personally is that starting at ages 4-5 I wanted to be a girl. Long before I knew about SRS, from 4 to maybe 7 years old, I imagined being surgically transformed. And this was in the...
"That dressed feeling" is exquisite Carla.
I think we all know the pleasure and joy of being dressed as we feel the need, and the pain of going back to drab.
I'm sitting here right now in a...
What a wonderful and hopeful experience you shared. Thank you!
And by all means, keep writing!
Kate
I'm with Amanda on the cycling back and forth until you find a balance. And, it may take a number of years, as you see frequently reported here.
And save yourself from purging in the future. It's...
I too have wondered about this many times. It seems to be a somewhat common experience for many of us here, I've noticed. I have found absolutely no answer for myself. I suspect it is both hormones...
From the late 70's and early 80's, a young Stevie Nicks, dripping in chiffon and lace. And the voice then too.
Kate
Kate, this makes sense. A kind of psychological development, finding and projecting that "inner self" in the process as we go. A "giving in to" and exploring and discovering along the way. And...
I wonder how many of us here over 45-50 would have even remotely considered taking Chase's action with the DMV when we were that age, asking for and possibly receiving parental support, or even have...
Yes to all of the above. And, it's all about being honest with yourself and her together.
I also wonder if the longer you wait, the harder it will be to describe as the anxiety builds.
All the...
Has anyone been reading about the experience of Chase Culpepper in South Carolina with the DMV, and his (and his mom's) response via legal action against the state? I have been following this a bit,...
I appreciate being able to check in when I can for a dose of "normalcy" for this part of my life. As with all support groups, safety is critical and I continue to feel safe here after several years...
