FtM crossdressers on television

It's starting right now for the Central Time zone. Seems pretty cool. Basically, a writer living as a man to find out what men are like.

Just thought i'd give you guys a heads up.

Bah. I screwed up the title, but you get it.

[mistunderstood]

Thank you.

I saw it. Very revealing about men. I wish more women could go out in drag and see how the other half lives. You can skip the monastery experience however.

I caught it by accident. Very interesting. Personally, I thought she looked pretty cool as a guy. I could totally relate when she said, "gender is in your brain".

About 10 years back they did this on a UK Television Channel with some girls in their late teens or early 20s dressing not merely in male clothing but to pass as males. They called it "Drag Kings".

Of course if a woman merely wants to wear men's clothing it has for years been very easy for her to do so and nobody bats an eyelid, unlike a man wearing a skirt etc.

You are right about it being easier for us to cross dress. But it is harder to find people and places that are supportive. It took me 2 months to find this group. Lot of reading on this subject bearly mentions F2M.

We watched Nora in my Gender Psychology class today. The monastary and wilderness experience seemed more creepy than anything, but she had a lot of very insightful comments and overall I thought it quite well done.
