Transgender = Transsexual ???? Since When?

[mechamoose]

But in my opinion clothes do not define or effect a persons gender, after all they are just material items made by people. Gender is defined in two parts physically and mentally, the physical part can be changed to co-inside with the mental part to make TS's who they are in mind and body.

And there I am totally in your corner.

But it isn't about clothes...

To me some one that is a CIS gendered male and wears a dress and acts in his mind "Feminine" is as much TG as a cat is a dog.

I'm sorry Hon, I have to disagree. I'm a full-on bull stud who cares about drapes. Identity isn't a light subject. We are 'messing with the machinery', honey. We are mixing modes, crossing streams, confusing mundanes.

This has less to do with desire, as much at it has to do with who we *care* about and who we want on the end of our bits. You gotta LIKE someone before you want more, yes? If you LIKE them, then do you really care what bits (you or they) have? I don't care how hot you are, I don't care how you present, I don't care how FERTILE you display.

If I'm not into you, it doesn't matter.

I'm a 6'2", 265# XY who feels more at home in a skirt and cami than shorts and a T. I have pierced ears, I paint (all) my nails, I have long hair and a cropped beard. I wear mascara. I advise my wife on what presents well, she doesn't 'get' it without me. She is a guy in a girl-bear body. She just sees the 'bear' part.

I can only lust-rail critters I CARE about.

What gender am I? (Most days, I don't know myself)

You tell me, sweetie,
