I just posted a comment about this, but I think it deserves a thread.

*Transgender (pronounced /trænzˈdʒɛndər/) is a general term applied to a variety of individuals, behaviors, and groups...

Annaliese2010, you mean transsexual when you use the term transgendered, because like it or not, ALL crossdressers are transgendered. One's who feel they are a woman inside are considered to be...

Life just keeps on chugging, yea? I was almost disappointed at the lack of anything happening when I started going out... I had to look in the mirror to make sure I was not invisible!

Ahhh, what ditz, I am... THAT does suck....I guess her delivery struck a chord with me...

A big part of TS life is self acceptance, which I obviously have at minimum come to terms with, and in my opinion have mastered for myself. I can't tell you how to get there, but I think it should be...

Gee thanks! Speak for yourself, sis. I love myself, and if I had a choice in my transgender-ness to be TS or CD, I would choose TS in a heartbeat, because I'm a woman, and a CD lifestyle is not...

Me too! :) What a beautiful post..... Kaitlyn, you are amazing!

So, going to purge, eh? Good luck! :heehee:

Hey Karen, good points, and very interesting parallels to my post, which we were writing at the same time, BTW!

Yes, indeed.


Our terminology is sooo inconsistent within the community...I've had people jump down my throat here for telling them that same thing...and yes, we all are saying what we...

That's it? At my best (worst?) I would take up to 150-300 digital pics in one night! I had around 15 GB of pictures stored at a point....

I did feel obligated, as you do, to get that visual...

OMG! That is the best! My son is the only one in my life so far who has completely adapted to using female pronouns with me...his birth mother hates it, which I totally get. I tried to tell her that...

Oooohhh yes, gotta luv getting rid of some cruddy menswear!

I have a tiny,and I mean tiny, suitcase in my closet with everything I had left, guy clothes wise, even my shoes, belt and wallet are...

Since going full time, I've been having lots of fun firsts. Things that only transgendered (I KNOW we all have somewhat different definitions we use, I use "transgendered" as a blanket term covering...

What's the purpose of any thread? I like when someone has something provocative to say around here. Jeez, aren't there enough boring, same 'ol threads as it is?

Agree or disagree, but don't get...

I know when I identified as CD, I went a looooong time hating myself, even saying those words to myself all the time. I blamed "it" for ruining my life, making me a reclusive person, sabotaging...

I think much comes down to the (as usual) individual. Just like many, at points I had many unrealistic dreams, but being the type of individual that has no problem looking realistically at a...

I used to work in a floor tile warehouse, operating a forklift and working around "manly men" both customers and fellow employees.

Near the end of my time there, I thought I was getting close to...

Lol! I wish! :daydreaming: As I was trying to describe them, I realized I had those raggedy old flip-flops. ;)

I am going shopping tomorrow, I'm going to need at least a few more outfits, as full...

I'm not as hard on myself as Myojine, but I do feel like a jerk for not commenting on your side.

I don't harbor any ill will towards anyone at all, or have any animosity, or anything like that,...

I know what she means, the bamboo like ones. They look like the material that those old style, roll up window shades use...yellowish and woven.

Like-a-deez:

I think it's just the opposite...the completely motionless, unchanging image of a photograph seems more like a misrepresentation, IMO. Not to mention any kind of artifacts that may show up that...

I used to put it in perspective like this : When you look at someone else in a mirror, a spouse or friend or whatever, do they look much different? To me they don't, and that tells me that people...

I've posted a few videos on youtube of myself, and over the past few months I've got around ten thousand views between them all.

So far, so good! After years of clues like shaved limbs, shaped brows and of course, all of the Halloweens :brolleyes: it was like giving them the final piece of the puzzle that was me.
