I don't think people should say I am/am not "trans," because that's not a word; it's a prefix. If I said I am "anti," would that make sense, or would I need to clarify, eg antiestablishment,...
Be safe, Isha! Sending positive, lucky thoughts your way.

The Houston Pride Parade was this past Saturday. What an amazing event! Over 70,000 people crammed the Montrose area of town to show their support for all things LGBT.
My wife and I took an Uber...
I just got back from a week long cruise down to Roatan, then Belize City, then Cozumel. I thought about dressing fully en-femme, but it was hot, and it was more about just dressing how I wanted to...
Good for you, Kerrieanne! Sounds like you enjoyed every moment of it! I particularly liked the part where you discarded your male drab. Did the sales associate hit you up with a barrage of...
Dear Brook,
I am so sorry for your loss.
My condolences,

Dear Mandy,
I have tried the disposable kind, menthol flavored. I was considering getting a refillable one and weaning myself off the nicotine too, using some flavor without the nicotine, just...
Dear Len,
I am very happy for you! Coming to terms with who you are will free you from so much of the angst and confusion that you may have been suffering through. Enjoy the new found clarity!...
After the OP's clarifications that she cannot purchase any of the items, I agree it should be hands off. Had that not been the case, and IF the items were used, why would her trying them on be such...
If they are secondhand, and you wanted to try them on, I would not see a problem with that, if you had them laundered or dry cleaned afterwards. And, if there were something you wanted to keep,...
Dear Sammie,
I wish you all the best in your path towards self-discovery.
By the way, you still look amazing, so don't fret too much about wasted time. Get out there and live a little!

Dear Sabrina,
You are not alone. Many of us have gone through the elation/shame cycles. Do you have any support groups nearby where you can meet some like-minded individuals and get out a bit? ...
A couple of girlfriends have been talking about getting out more in the mainstream, instead of the same routine (i.e. LGBT bars and restaurants). So, a few weeks ago, about 6 of us took our first...
Dear Kelly,
Congratulations on conquering your fear! I remember my heart feeling like it was going to burst out of my chest the first time. It gets easier.
My favorite quote from Dune -

Finger nail polish is the worst! Now, I always put a clear base coat on first, so when I remove the color, there is no staining.
I have gone to work with eye shadow, but it was light, and I don't...
Glad you had a good time. Be careful, though. Those outings can become addictive!

I have read that dark cokors on top and light colors below (skirts, slacks, etc.) are preferable for the girls with broad shoulders and not so curvy bodies. So, over the past year and a half that I...
Dear Erica,
So sorry to hear the bad news! I know it is of little comfort right now, but there are many CDs/TGs that have found SOs/spouses who do get it and are okay with it. Don't give up hope...
My Mum's (for our British sisters) pantyhose and some of her dresses that she put in my closet. That was her spillover storage, since her closet was full. I was probably seven the first time.

Okay, girls. I have a meeting in Austin on Thursday morning and am traveling there tomorrow. Last time I was in Austin, I dressed and then went out on 4th street to a couple of LGBT friendly bars...
I agree with Candace--my toenails would have been a nice light blue, but hot pink "seemed" more femme, so I went with that. Although, now, I am thinking a nice lavender would be pretty, LOL!
Dear Kalyn,
All I can add is that many times our loved ones can surprise us with their love and understanding. Time to test that and be honest with your mom. Good luck!

EVERY damn day! Sometimes, it is a wonderful daydream, but sometimes, it is obsessive burden that complicates my life.

Dear Megan,
Congratulations on your first time out! You may never experience the same adrenaline rush, but each trip out becomes a richer experience, in my view.
Best Cate
p.s. You didn't...
