For years I struggled with this very thing. But the fact was there were aspects of what I was doing that WERE wrong and it created great conflict in this area of my life. It wasn't until I dug deep...
I wish you all the best in wherever this new direction takes you. It's a strange feeling to let go of something that has been a part of you for so long. While your declaration is surely a conscious...
Emily, this brought me to tears. I can't tell you how happy I am for you. My father knew about me but would never talk to me about it or acknowledge it in any way. I think for him it meant he had...
A+ for the Harville Hendrix reference, "Getting The Love You Want" is a brilliant book and Imago therapy is one of the most important tools my wife uses in her marriage counseling practice. Using it...
Didn't even skip a beat(Cue drummer...Badum Ching!)
In my 20's I used to hang with a wacky group of CD's and TS's in Washington DC. They were all older than me and gave me the confidence I needed to get out there. I learned how to walk, how to talk...
Amanda. I think she meant her therapist knew for 2 years, not her wife.
Deebra. Perhaps the reason you get so many negative responses is the tone and content of your posts which to some can be off putting. I'm not making excuses for anyone's behavior mind you, just...
Welcome back! As to the purge, I too have chucked it all several times. And while I grieve the loss of so many beautiful things, I saw it as an opportunity to not just rebuild, but rethink my...
Thanks Aunt Kelly. That right there.
What a beautiful story! Enjoy the companionship and forget about expectations and outcome. Having someone who gets you and accepts you and want's to spend time with you is priceless!
What's up with all the hats?
A very well thought out and respectful response Little G. I too was a bit taken aback by some of the replies to your thread. I found your post insightful and thought provoking. What DOES my wife want...
This is the place I came to. After a lifetime of cycling, hiding, purging, crying, hating it, loving it........I sat down with my wife 15 months ago and told her I was tired of the duality and that I...
It's a bit hard for me to rate this because technically I'm not a crossdresser, I'm more gender fluid in that I've been able to blend the masculine/feminine to some degree and live that in my day to...
I have been collecting vintage lingerie since in my 20's. Mostly nylon pajamas, peignoirs, babydolls and robes. Recently I began collecting feminine vintage blouses, suits, blazers and slacks. I look...
I have lived right where you're living only I was 10 years vounger and married(I assume you're single sans any mention of a spouse). It was the 80's and as Kim pointed out, quite a different time and...
I'm coming up on our 20th anniversary and hadn't spoken to my best man in a while so I called him last week. He's a pragmatic chap and always seems to know how to cut to the chase on things. I've...
Billie Jo. May I suggest an Ebay search for "vintage peignoir". But don't say I didn't warn you!!
My early days dressing consisted of pilfering my mom's "special" lingerie drawer. It was filled with all manner of frilly feminine finery that I don't think she wore past child bearing years. Those...
Oh lord, just look in my vintage lingerie closet and pick something! I think my favorite is a double sheer nylon pink open robe with pintucks and a huge pussybow tie at the neck. Yeah, I'm a bit of...
Goodbye Horses by Q Lazarus
Ah Tracii, staying true to form today are we? Always full of helpful well thought out advice spoken with love! I like your new avatar btw....
That doesn't sound like tolerance to me. New Yorkers are just so used to weird that they're desensitized to it which is an unconscious act. Tolerance is a conscious act.
