General Transgender Discussion

On Wednesday night I went to NYC to the gay center. There was a transgender support group there and it was wonderful. I have done a ton of research on the net, but nothing beats actually coming out to the community. The meeting was 7:30 to 9pm. The room was filled with people from the trans community. Everyone was at different stages of transition and coming out with various age ranges. I went to the first group of the "semester" and as time goes on we will discuss various topics. After the hour we all went to the local coffee house and hung out for an hour socializing. And to top it all off, there were trans boys there(diversity rules!). It was just awesome. I feel p…

Ok , A trend I have Expierianced and also Noticed , is the use of many substances that truelly hold NO safety , or tranquillity within their use . Drugs , Alcohol , Narcotics , even Herbal remedies , Hold an appeal and a draw to those who suffer any form of Gender Variance , even For those who simply believe that the answers lie within the use of such things . I can attest to the use and abuse of Alcohol , in an attempt to Hide the True Feelings and Nature of Who it was that was trapped within this Body , I suffered Major Alcoholism for 8 years I woke up grabbing the bottle and went to bed placing it beside my Bed at night . Until I relized " I am drowndin…

A transexual friend (who has a PhD) asked me: If I could take a pill that would send me back into a male person - with no ambiguity or dysphoria, would I take it? So, I thought, rather than post my answer (just to be annoying), I would ask the forum: would you take that pill? This applies to post-op, pre-op, genderqueer, and those who are trans* everything but just thinking about how things might be on the other side. What say you?

I really enjoy the make up! the clothes and and the way woman are in general. Love the complements and the sharing of emotions with other women.So much i respect about women! Men seem to hide the feelings and tend to think they are better! I take a woman life anyday.

I noticed the post about chasers and admirers. I reckon you ladies and gents have your fair share of that garbage. It is my hope that nobody thinks that of me. I guess it would be the right thing to do in telling you all why a cisgender is here. First off, I'll try to keep any spiritual or religious stuff on my blog. I realize some may hate reading religious stuff. If you recall in the book of Acts the apostle Paul was preaching to the Jews and they hated him Some enough to follow him around disputing what he preached. This by the way is a sign of true hatred. Anyway, to get back on track I preach in a church to a small congregation. I love doing that and i…

UK law is now punishing transgender people – often very young – for having sex ‘by deception’ because they didn’t tell their partners their full gender history first 03 July 2013 | By Ashlee Kelly "The potential for transphobic cases to spring up over a bad relationship is a terrifying prospect. I shouldn’t have to make a recording of everyone I give intimate details about myself to." --gaystarnews.com Stealth trans people having sex should not be criminals

Hi and happy holidays and marry Christmas to all. I'm Tinalynn Ann(Tim)) ,, And I was wondering how many you all have ever had spend Christmas home alone?? like for me recently I played all my gender for all to see including my family to which their response to me making what they basically knew alone official. was to let I be known no if an or buts,,,that is choose to continue along this path that I would not be welcome to protake in any family gatherings-events. such a s thanksgiving and Christmas and summer vacations. So for the last couple holidays except for this past Thanksgiving to which I spent with my step father and brother and his wife. And as wri…

Я не знаю, можно ли задать этот вопрос здесь и задавался ли он ранее, но мой парень трансгендер и я хотела бы узнать у тех, кто делал операцию на g3nitals, какой метод вы использовали, осталась ли ваша чувствительность прежней после операции? пожалуйста, расскажите мне все об этом. Это, наверное, единственное место, где я могу спросить, я очень обеспокоена этим 🥲

I am 17, and as I become more comfortable with the fact that I am trans, and that I really am a girl I find myself more and more forgetting as of now that I'm a guy. Like today I was looking at a prom magazine that was in the house of the girl that I'm taking to prom, and I'm looking through the dresses actually thinking about which ones I would wanna buy and which dresses would like nice on me...then I remembered oh yeah, for now, for all intents and purposes I'm a guy...

Hey. Maybe this is the wrong place for this topic, if yes, I appologize. I know I wasn't here for a while. Mostly because I kinda fought or you can say I am on my way but very confused. Okay to be more specific. So far I haven't "outed" myself here. I haven't said what I am. Welll I am a male in the body of a female. Thanks to this board and some really great friends I realized this. I found out what is "wrong" with me. Since I realized this I can say that I make a kinda morphosis. I live out my male soul. My closest friends don't call me by my female name anymore and one of them calls me man and brother what feels awesome. I also told some other people what I am an…

Had this run in with a girl today, who apparently doesn't have a life, othen then wanting to make people around them miserable, and feel better about themselves. I dress in the mens fashion, though I still fully pre-op, and suddenly she feels the need to get in my face about it. Well Im good about not letting it bother me normaly, but I told her the true and said I was transexual. Hopping this might get her to just give up and go away. Result? Didn't work and made it worse. She just proceeded to laugh and say, "No, your a Fu**ing lesbian! You have the breasts and cooch to prove it! Lesbian!" Did not even bother after that to tell her im hetero and a man in a women bod…

I have gone to alot of trans websites looking for support. In my living I deal with alot of discrimination, I hear it every day when I go to work,,,and even hear it when I work outside my home. And it seems like everytime i mention the hard times I am dealing with, I get put down by trans people in my community. They keep telling me they are not dealing with the harrassment I am dealing with...and then write me off. Like it's my fault that people don't accept me. I haven't tried to push my truth onto anyone. All I have done is try to be honest. And i will say...I now understand how brainwashing works. Because at the end of my work week....I have had so many peopl…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzLrthThlu8&feature=youtu.be this is what i deal with daily in my life. would love for some to leave me comments on my video on my channel.

Does anybody have any advice on what career options would be suitable for a MTF transsexual? I am currently pre- everything so it has to be a job I can transition at. I have a degree, if that helps. Also, I am from the UK and I am quite good with people if that helps. Ty.

I just adore being a tgirl, I have finally found my inner and true self. I am almost out 24X7 now, not at work yet, but that will be coming later this year. I have met many great people, made lots of new friends, met lots of people online (a special wink at everyone on this board) I went grocery shopping today, a lady came around the corner and bumped into me with her cart while I was bent down picking out some pantyhose, she said, "oh I'm sorry honey, are you okay? Yes thank you,. I'm fine. cute, cute guy at one of the cash registers, hmm, yes, I think I'll go in this line. He rang up all my groceries, plus the bottle of diet coke I bought. He aske…

I guess that means HRT is working huh? lol Any tips to avoid this unique pain? I mean don't get me wrong, its amazing to see the changes in my body but i work in retail right now and well handling a boxed TV right now isn't my idea of a great day right now. :P

I have always dreamed of having breasts,not Pam Anderson types,but a simple little b cup on a 32".More than enough for me,to complete my femme image.I have even looked at the girls on "sites" that featured small breasted women,and felt a certain amount of envy.I looked into the possibilities of aquiring these precious assets,and discovered that by taking a combination of hormone drugs,I could achieve my goal.Bonus!.....my hips would expand as I would transfer fat from my belly to them.I could achieve a girly figure(at last!)...and ...have breasts! Upon further investigation,I found that these effects are irrevesible..that didn't bother me a bit...that's what I wanted....…

In another thread I saw a couple of members say something like "well, we all started as crossdressers." And as I read that I thought well, yeah. But no! Heck no! I suppose I wanted to crossdress but I didn't think of it like that at all. I thus think it would be fun for us to post something about this. And to get it started, here's a few words about me: I was probably 4 or 5 when I realized how much I envied girls and wished I could be one. I remember situations at nursery school, playing with the girls - it just felt right and lots better. But somehow, although no one told me, I felt awareness that it was wrong. I was 7 when I talked my father into taking me to se…

Well, it wasn't supposed to happen, I'd been assured, but I've become unemployed. My wife and I are completely broke and I expect I'll soon be evicted with nowhere to go. Why wasn't it supposed to happen, you might ask? Because while these trumped-up charges have been building, another department's manager offered me a position with him should this happen. When he asked the VP why I was terminated, instead, the VP said the office was too small. Since there are 3 empty offices and 4 empty cubicles, not counting my now vacant cube, it's not for lack of a workspace. My "new" manager is going to investigate but thinks his employee, a young male described to me as intol…

Well , now isn't this a turd in the punch bowl , I set up my Facebook account (it has been setting for so long ) and I allowed it to import contacts ... Well guess what invitations to friend all around , and my Sister was the first to respond , Who , What , uhhhh, what just happened (anxiety builds ) , bling Step mother , Oh Hell ..... Then Daughter .... Oh double Hell ..... phew nothing from Brother not yet any how ... and of course since my daughter got it guess what now my Granddaughter .... (where are those Pills..... ).... Well , now I suppose I am not going to get the oppinion of my Psycologist before I send the letter I had prepaired , I was getting ready to sen…

Hi all. My Dad suffered a mild stroke 2 weeks ago. He is now home and i went to see him today. It was a little rough seeing this strong man now needing so much help. At the same time, we had a great visit and I will be seeing him again on Monday to help him out. He kept trying to give me money and I told him, "Dad i am not here for your money. I am here because you are my Dad and i love you." Anyway, what felt really good is that, for the first time in many years, I am my dad's son again. You see until puberty hit, my Dad always treated me like his son. And, I loved every minute of it. It is sad that it took a health issue for him to finally see me again. I wi…
