Hello I am a married man and I have a few questions maybe some of you will be able to help me with. I have been married 25 years and I have just told my wife that I am not sure what I am as cross dresser or a Transgender. I have felt all of my life that I feel like a woman but I was born a male. I dress in womens clothes maybe about every 2 years on and off but not all the time. I will dress a few times be satisfied then wait maybe 1 1/2 to 2 years and dress in womens clothes again just enough to be satisfied but not completely because I know in my mind I feel and look very feminine my hands are small my face is babyish I don't have a lot of facial hair. My mind thinks fe…

I'm a voracious cyclist. I have been putting in about 24 miles a week for the past few weeks to start gearing up for the not-so-rainy-and-cold season here, and during the nice parts of the year I've been known to put in a couple of 30+ mile (one-shot) trips per month. I've got a 60 mile, multi-day trip I want to do some time when it's nice. Some day if I'm ever in shape and have the time I'd love to do one of the across-the-state type events. I got to thinking about something today though. Does SRS cause problems with things like this where that crotch area gets a lot of pressure and/or friction? My wife's a GG and she complains about it. I know I have problems sometim…

I am currently 20 and plan to go on hormones before or by my 21st birthday. I know the earlier the better for HRT in terms of passibility and overall effects. I was wondering if anyone could tell me 1. at the age of 21 would hormones have a very positive effect? 2. What are the early effects and when would i expect to start feeling/seeing them? 3. From any experience, i know i wont look 100% like a girl, but assuming my body excepts hormones well at this age how well will it effect my passibilty/look of femininity? 4. How long does it take for your body to over come the "T" and really become accustom to the estrogen? 5. What effect/what will happen to eja…

Been wearing two thumb rings on my right thumb for over three years, I noticed that over the past two months or so they tend to start sliding off. Well today both slide off so I got out my ring sizer and set it to the size of the rings then shrunk it down till it was snug and also capable of removing. The size jumped from a 10 to a 9 and have no clue why. I am in excellent heath (just had my annual physical) so the only thing it could possible be is perhaps hormones. Anyone else here have something similar happen to them?

After my last post, and reading all the advice i got (which was pretty much everyone telling me to see a therapist) i've got an appointment with my GP tomorrow. I'm a nervous wreck and can't get it out of my head, but looking forward to it at the same time. If all goes well my GP will be able to set me up with a therapist, and i can start to work through some off this mess (my life). Ha, i'm sitting here in my room listening to the calming sound of the beatles. I've always had some musical talent but with the state my heads been in over the last few years i stopped playing my guitar/trumpet etc. This is one of the few occasions for a long time where im actually looking…

I was looking at pictures of me from a few months ago and I look so different now and my moustache and neck hair have grown back Im so sad and scared right now. Im so scared do you think 1 month of 16 year old boy puberty could do too much damage?? I started self medicating am I going to have to wait as long as I did the first time for my facial hair to stop growing? Will my face go back to looking like it used to look???? And it's a very long story as to why I had to stop taking HRT for a month and start self-medicating... very long.

Hello everyone, It has been a while since I have posted. So I have some good and bad news. But overall things are going well. Better than expected. First and foremost, please allow me to extend my thanks to each and every one of you who post on this site. While I may not have posted much, I have checked in, researched some topics and read a lot of great info and advice. So thanks to all of you. REALLY ! THANKS! The second thing I did after joining this site was to become an active member of the the local support group, and they are great. If you are ever in Tulsa, look up the Gender Outreach Group hosted at the Dennis R. Neill Equality Center http://www.okeq.org/…

Hello all, My name is Kya I am new to the forums and enjoy reading the various topics discussed. I can relate to much of it. I am a MtF, I have been on hormones and anti-androgens for about two months now and am already noticing A LOT of changes, all of which are exciting and anticipated. I am under the care of a physician as well as a therapist for the past year. Basically just maybe looking for a few other girls to befriend and maybe have contact so I don't feel so alone. I have a wonderful network of friends, I wish my family were more understanding they have disowned me for religious reasons. All the best Kya

I'm having trouble with this one . Yeah, I know Gays aren't popular there , but this woman did it for obvious religious reasons ! http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2013/03/woman-faces-prison-time-after-beating-son-for-engaging-in-gay-sex-act/ Oh, I meant to say DUE SOUTH TARRANT County. This lil suburb city is jus NORTH of the 820 South loop ................

I am a woman, I am bisexual, I tend to be masculine in hobbies and feminine in dress. I love transgender men. I've never told anyone and I'm relationship deprived due to my need for a beautiful man who feels female.

Hello everyone! I am new here and thought I should introduce myself. My name is Megan and I am a transexual woman living in Virginia. I have known all of my life who I am, but for the better part of 30 years was too afraid to embrace it for fear of hurting people I love. I still have that fear but am more afriad of what might happen if I continued to live a lie. Right now I am working with a therapist, having my facial hair removed, am newly active in a support group, hoping I will be given the okay to begin hormone therapy and living as a woman about 25% of the time. I am out to the people I am closest with and all have been more accepting and supportive th…

Hi, I was thinking a few things through this morning and suddenly a realisation dawned upon me. Maybe this is me being to sensitive or just bias, or maybe I'm actually right in my thinking. That's why I've decided to post. I've started to notice that there seems to be a lot of tolerance for FTM Transexuals and society seems to " accept " them more than MTF Transexuals. Now I'm not suggesting for one minute that we go through more than FTM's of course not, or that FTM's have it easier that would be ridiculous as each of us has to battle this through to become who we are. Like I said, I maybe subconsciously bias, this is just my opinion of what I've seen and read, …

I was sitting at work eating lunch at my desk when a call came through with no caller ID. I said hello (if I know the caller i say Hi this is Karen or Hi this is Kevin), the woman on the other end said 'is this Karen', got up and walk to an area I could talk. It was Robin from Doctor Bower's office confirming my surgeries and told me to expect a packet shortly to being their process with me. The only question I had was to find out which day I needed to be there as they want you there one or two days ahead of time. My hope was one day as hotel rooms cost $170 per night and was hoping for Monday (surgery is Tuesday) rather than Friday as I did not want to spend Thursday …

I just recently got started on Hormones :-D, but I've only been on them for three days. Now I know they say you shouldn't notice any real physical changes till 6-8 weeks on hormones. Now I'm not particularly overweight but I have some fat on me, and it seems like a little fat has redistributed to what will soon be my breast area. Definately no tissue growth but it seems like my nipples are a little more sensitive and there's a little more fat there...is this possible or am I imagining things?

So Girls/Guys, What is your strategy for when people laugh at you in the street, how do you cope; what do you do to not let comments or laughter get to you on an emotional level? I don't have THAT much trouble, but now and again the pointing or the laughter or sly giggle gets to me, I know it shouldn't, I just wondered how everyone else copes with this situation? Melanie xx

I wonder if some male to female transsexuals experience any change in their sexual orientation by taking estrogen. While I have wished for many years to experience sex as a female with males, I have never been physically attracted to any non-transgendered males. I still am only attracted to females.

Hi all out their reading Im trying to figure out some things.Hopefully someone can lend some words of wisdom.Ok here goes first off Im really haveing a tough time figuring out what size cloths fit me.I dont have anyone around to go with me to give their opinion so im tryng to usually go by eye.A lot of the time I get things home and try them on and things are either to big or to small.It would be nice if everything was one size fits all(and really would fit rite).I guess im still just new to this stuff and it well just take time.The other thing is makeup whats good whats bad and what colors really look good on me.Be leave me Im really trying to figure all this out on my o…

Hi everyone. Firstly I would like to say sorry this is my first post and not an introduction in the relevant section. I am Jane, pre-op MtF transgender, 35 years old. I transitioned at 17-20 while starting counseling. From 20 onwards I got the all clear from my doctors and therapist to begin HRT. Hormonally it was a rough start but mood and such settles after a year however mood problems began 5 years go with feeling unwell from the hormones and I opted for just antagonists instead of replacement and even tried cycling on and off estrogen. I have been through 3 doctors, one Endocrinologist outside of my small town even. Right now it has been 1 year straight on antagonis…

Blurgh. So, the last time I was here, I was talking about how great it was that I was coming out to friends and family and that my wife was finally starting to be more accepting. And now... Two steps back... First, she wanted me to stop discussing things among the only transgendered community I know because people on the internet don't know me personally. I was at least feeling okay that I was able to start talking to my few friends in real life... Shortly thereafter, she pointed out that there's always the possibility that I will see a therapist and there will be other circumstances than GID that have caused these feelings all my life, so I shouldn't discuss i…
