I can identify with so much of what's been recounted here. Growing up in a rural area there was no access to such magazines, and TV references in Dear Abby were few and far between. I did marathon...
I'd guess that 80% of the time and thought I give to clothing and shopping for it is on the girl side, for two reasons: I'm far more interested in it, and there are far more possibilities. I'm ok...
I don't know, but if my experience is any guide, it would have taken hours.
I have it "perched" on my nightstand, and I laugh every time I see it.
I totally cracked up when I got this birthday card from my sweetie, along with a pretty silver, gold and copper stranded necklace. Inside it reads, "Happy birthday to a chick who stands apart from...
What a neat story! You were brave to share, and it was rewarded by discovering yet another connection.
This is reminding me of an experience with the police awhile back. I was on my way to my trans meetup group on a summer evening, in a long spaghetti-strap sundress, when I tried to change lanes in...
We have an active Meetup group in the DC area that regularly gets together with attendance as high as 80-plus, and a good number -- at least half a dozen, and probably more -- are members of this...
90 minutes, but ONLY if I have already decided what to wear and have it laid out. Indecision could add another half hour to the process.
Like everyone else, I loved reading this novella and found myself very much cheering for our heroine. I can't wait for the sequel!
Probably about 80 to 100, thanks to the meetup group that Steffi mentioned. The group goes out together often, and each time it's a different mix and I always meet new girls.
I have my own subscription to Elle, although I can't afford to buy anything in it!
Over 50 and out to my wife, although only for the past few years.
So very cute and put together!
The Washington, D.C., area is good on many fronts: jobs, culture, cuisine, climate. We do get snow, but not like Boston's. And summers can be sultry. But there is a vibrant TG community here with...
It was about three years ago, after decades of marriage and only a few scattered (and unintentional) hints about it from me.
My spouse is accepting, but still seems fearful and clearly feels a need to set limits. We talk about this from time to time, mostly at my initiative. I point out things I notice in the media about...
Interesting conversation, and want to contribute one more data point to it: In the Washington, D.C. area, there are at least two or three meetup groups for TS/CD girls. One I'm in has more than 500...
The main one I remember was a bit like Kaley's, at a bar, alone at a small table and watching karoke. I was probably a bit overdressed, in a black sparkly semiformal, and a guy grabbed the other...
Steffi, so sorry to hear all of this. It sounds like a big burden to deal with, and I am hoping that it gets better. I am glad you are in counseling, but one thing I wondered was whether your wife...
Steffi, that's great -- sounds like progress to me.
A big joy is being out in a full skirt on a breezy day, and needing to put my hands down to keep it from blowing too much. Also dangly earrings.
Lacey, this kind of meeting was my ticket to get out a short couple of years ago, and it made all the difference. I am in the Washington, DC, area, and thakfully we have several active groups here,...
I think the difference it would make is less time feeling completely alone, repressing and wishing away these feelings. It would have meant realizing far, far earlier that there are others out there...
