As have I! Frankly, I've found the women to be a bit smoother in their approach.

Unscientific, but fun: I scored 4% male/96% female.

This isn't an easy question to answer because it depends on the context. It's something I've thought about quite a bit over the years.

When it comes to rights, I believe men and women are equals,...

Thanks for the info about the recovery time. My surgeon said it would take a few days before the pain subsided. Fortunately this is not a total knee replacement, but something that has been needed...

I know this is just a beginning. Like any relationship there are bound to be pitfalls and false steps. I have no illusions that everything will be perfect. There is no such thing as life has...

It has been an interesting and, dare I say, an intense afternoon.

Laura arrived early this afternoon and once inside I had her sit down in the living room next to me on the couch. It was...

Kim, that is exactly the approach I plan to take. "Great minds" and all that! Goodness knows I've been thinking about it since this afternoon.

Not long after I made the original post I realized...

I have to believe what I experienced today is what I can only describe as synchronicity.

Since I commented on the GG Friends thread...

My GG friend Jo was the first I came out to, and that was back when we were in our early teens. It was she who helped me, taught me what I needed to know in order to pass. You might say that she was...

An interesting question and I have to mirror what some of the others have said: it depends on the situation. At work, and particularly at a customer's worksite, I can be a 10 when dealing with work...

Suzanne, I am so happy this worked out well for you! I think we all understand that coming out to family can be stressful and the relief that is felt when it's finally done and when there is...

For me it generates a sense of relief. I do enjoy seeing the lady that is me in the mirror.

I am fortunate that my male name is androgynous and my appearance on my driver's license photo is likewise. It's pretty much been like that since I was 18. (I've almost always had long or longish...

When the time comes for me to abandon my male side (and it is approaching), I already have my course laid out. At the moment I have no plans of undergoing SRS. HRT? Yes. Breast enhancement? If needed...

Over the years I've had to change as I've aged. My clothing had to change as well, moving towards more age appropriate attire. (Let's face it, I can't pass for 20, 30, or 40. Well, maybe 40 if I try...

I have to echo what many others have already said: When I am out as Diane I want to be perceived as a woman. I am fortunate that I am. At this point I am 90% Diane and 10% 'Dave', and that ratio is...

Unless I'm working I tend to be dressed almost all the time when I'm home, so yes, I am dressed when I log in.

I am a solid 8 sliding upwards towards 9. I'll eventually reach 11.

Back in the beginning (my early teens) I was concerned about anyone other than my cousin and best friend from finding out. These days it's my parents and the oldest of my three sisters that I worry...

I book hotel rooms under my male name. But as I have mentioned more than once it is androgynous and that makes it easier when I check in whether in male or female mode.

I look like my cousin Gail's twin sister, but I also bear some resemblance to my three sisters.

Fear not. That's how some of us have found out that we've only come part way! Having the side and rear view, if possible, is one of the ways to find out if everything 'fits', meaning clothing,...

I know I am not "just a CDer." While it may have started that way for me, sort of, back when I was in my early teens, as time went on it became less about fantasy and more about how I felt when I'm...

This kind of reminds me of something I read somewhere that has always stuck with me. I have found that there have been times when it applies. (This means I don't know if it applies here!)

"If...

I have been more fortunate than most in regards to going out. That I have the appearance I do that let's me go out and about with little worry about being read is something I do not take for granted....
