I'm pretty clear myself. I'm transgender, and pretty much a 6 on the Benjamin scale. I tried to play with boys, because I was expected to do so, but it was almost always dangerous. I often ended...
The term transgender is a word that was chosen to include the entire spectrum of people who have some form of expression of the opposite sex.
Harry Benjamin created a scale, from 0 to 6, with 0...
It has changed. The "man style" is called "Figure 4" which I will call 4, the female style (ankle or knees) I will call X and the double wrap I'll call xx.
First, keep in mind that girls are...
It's a good idea to read through some of the back threads, there are questions that you haven't even thought of yet, that have been asked and answered.
Check out all of the different forums as well,...
Welcome Cdzinha,
A common thread for both CDs and those who are more severely transgender (CD is a very mild flavor - 1 on a scale of 1 to 6).
Growing up, you got a lot of messages about how it...
There are a number of ways to find transgender support groups, which include cross-dressers as well as transsexuals.
In most larger cities, there are LGBT centers, and most of these have...
They aren't fooled.
There is way too much here that suggests that your family probably knows a LOT more than you think they do. As you said, your mom knows.
Your dad probably knows but is in...
Boy, there were five different issues going on.
First - Thos of us who live full-time in our true gender learn quickly to blend in. In your case, you were wearing a costume designed to get you...
I too have found a great deal of help at this site.
In my case, I knew I was transgender, and had known it from a very young age, at least by the time I was two years old.
On the other hand, even...
True nature MTF Transgender Woman.
During "Living in Stealth mode" - CD and gender fluid.
When I had to live in guy mode, I was too feminine to pass as male unless I had a beard.

You need to get into communication with each other, and stay in communication.
There can be many different issues, all in play at the same time.
First question - who are you when you are not...
When you are in New Hope, check out a club called Raven. it's owned by a transgender woman. They have special events about once a month, but they are very welcoming and supportive.
Meanwhile, yes,...
Provincetown is a great place to do an excursion like this. The point is to start small and build your confidence. Start with a walk around the block, the a walk to a convenience store, then a trip...
Chris is absolutely right. Most important is that there is no "cut and dried" or "set in stone" for either cross-dressers or anyone on the transgender spectrum. One of the reasons we came up with...
I have memories of past lives, but most of them are pretty ordinary. I remember my last life pretty well, including the moments just before and during my death (murder). I also remember dozens of...
Taielyn,
It's very hard for you as a woman to understand how hard it is for a man to be a cross-dresser (or transgender), let alone tell someone he really loves, that he is a cross-dresser. Keep in...
I absolutely wanted to transition at that age, and when my testes dropped (they were WAY UP - where ovaries would normally be), I was in the bath tub. I immediately tried to shove them back up...
Only once in my life did I do a full purge of my wardrobe, and it was a serious mistake. Like Jess, I was in a new relationship and had not told my new girlfriend about my dressing. I had figured...
Wonder woman, black widow, and the telepath in X-men. I also really liked Catwoman because she represented justice for those who could get it no other way. It made her the villain, but I could...
Two ways to put in the zipper. First is to put it in before you star sew the rest together The second is to fold the fabric as close to the zipper with the pillow inside out, then sew along the...
When I first started dressing in public, I didn't really have a good coach. My skirts were too short, my blouses too tight, my heels too high, and my hair too big. I looked like a low-class hooker,...
There are many considerations for me. I usually wear a jacket because I have a rather large tush and wide hips. I prefer to wear skirts because I can adjust the length at will. For extended...
Read a good book - Amazon has lots of great books with cross dressing themes, forced feminization, and transgender themes.
I'm particularly fond of Karin Bishop, Katie Leone, and Tanya Allen. ...
The first time I was pulled over as Debbie, I gave the officer my driver's license, and he spent almost 45 minutes checking every agency he could to see if I had any history of criminal activity. At...
