"Back in the early 1990s, Chris Gary Bruce competed in male bodybuilding contests. He was good, but only up to a point... Bruce, a 42-year-old personal trainer living in San Diego, will get another chance to go for the gold on Oct. 29 at the Border States Classic Bodybuilding competition -- but this time, it will be as Chris Tina Bruce, and she will be competing as a woman."

Hi to all, I am new on this forum. One of the reasons that I have joined is that I am hoping that I could hear from any members with any experiences with facial feminisation surgery. I have been searching the internet however I seem to be having trouble in finding too much in the way of genuine independent reviews etc. I will kick off by asking if anyone might of heard or have had any personal dealings with a company in Lima in Peru called Femilife. I have contacted them and they have provided prices and procedural information that seem to be really quite reasonable. I have tried asking them if I could communicate with any of their ex clients and they have not …

My Partner recently made a trip home to see family (we’re from the same home town), I chose (sadly) not to go as my relationship with some of my family (especially my Dad) is strained at best ... less then a week after my partner returned, I spoke to Dad ... it’s been over 10 months since we last spoke (almost 2yrs since I came out). I cried ... after all the things I thought I’d say or wanted to say none of it came to mind at the time. I called to speak with Mom but for some reason he decided to answer it, they have caller I.D. and he’d stopped answering when I call and just hand the phone to Mom. Yesterday, I heard the gruff “Hello”. 1st I froze ... I have to stop to t…

I wanted to just post a topic that I feel might be good for some around on the verge or scared to go out and goto the Club for a night out En Femm or even just as the woman you already are ( sorry you guys as well ) , Ok I have lived full time for a long time as you alll know and have had many expieriances I have shared and talked about with so many coming up through the ranks of transitional univeristy (LOL) I thought I would add this to the mix , I and my Debra went out yesterday and did some arrends , she wanted to go and see this guy that I am attempting to set her up with , and I went the other direction back towards the house , she need less to say Hay yo told me y…

Moderator Note: Though the OP deleted her original post, she has entered back into the discussion below

It doesn't seem to be talked about too much, it maybe taboo (imagine something “Taboo” on a TG forum, lol) or it just maybe because I don’t see many post-op girls here ... in any event I just thought I’d discuss for a moment “libido”, as it seems to have been on a rollercoaster ride beside me through all this. I know it varies for many Transwomen, whether it is pre or post transition and post GRS. For me; as a male I always had a variable libido depending on the partner and level of the relationship. It could however never have been considered low. In my last relationship as a male it was quite high in fact, Spironolactone didn’t even effect me at 1st (well I didn’t t…

Hey peoples. I am a judoka and recently fought at a competition. At 27 years old I am 5'11 and 155lbs. When I fought this weekend I fought in three matches to win gold in my weight class. One of my fights went into overtime and the other two were done under two minutes (the matches are timed for four). My question is, could I have had a competitive advantage? I trained hard for the fight and felt that my game plan helped a lot. However, do I really have to question myself if I win? What about all of my hard work training, didn't that mean a lot? Please do not hold back your opinions. I know this is a controversial subject. This is not me, but another transwoman who …

I am a female I am the bleep girl I am the bleep boy I am a female I am a girl girl I hate machismo I love to be love I hate aggressive I want to feel you I want to be love I want to be love I want to live life I want to feel you I want to love you I want to live life

Well I'm at a very early stage in my transformation, and I'm not even sure if I want to go all the way. I gave out a few messages that I might be transsexual, and now, all of a sudden, I have guys touching me on the bum and stuff. I don't want to be overly aggressive, but these approaches are most unwelcome. Short of punching them in the face, and totally destroying the female persona I'm trying to develop, I'm unsure how to handle this. Advice please.

I've become to think I'm complete crap. I feel like people view me as mentally handicap and I feel mentally handicap somehow.... I feel like I could cure cancer and people would still think of me as bad since I'm transgender. I don't know what to do, I'm 17 and my family is in debt and poverty. I'm not sure if we will be able to overcome it and I know that we would be homeless right now if my grandfather wasn't paying our house payments. (I'm on the internet because I have an old laptop and I pick up someone else's internet connection.) My dad is trying to get me to do something with my future but I don't want to because of my self-esteem. I feel like the best thing I …

I don't really have the chest for the dress ideas, but I'm going to start working on repurposing some of my button-downs as skirts. I've already got some in mind that have perfect patterns for Spring attire and maybe one I can use this Fall if it's not too chilly and if the cut isn't too weird.

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.

I am getting a little concerned, I think it is a valid concern; my psychologist doesn’t seem to be worried about it. So here it is; is it normal to become forgetful after you’ve gone onto hormones? I have been on hormones since January and am doing fine otherwise, but I find that I am becoming forgetful, how to say it, well I am a blond and.....well the comparison is becoming reality. I am worried about it however because I simply forgot a whole week (in reference to my analyst's appointment), Needless to say she was very surprised when I showed up thinking I was on time and she knew I was a week late. Any help here would be much appreciated, am I worrying about nothing…

Hello Everyone, I would really appreciate any advice you may have for me. As far as I am along in this transition, more or less complete there are still some missing links. This is my Question? The department of motor vehicles continues to list my other name from the past. The girl at the counter said that my gender lists permanently as female and fortunately only my middle initial is indicated. My first name was obviously male in the past but with a slight change in pronounciation it could be interpreted as female. However because I was well known in my home town if anyone were to see my previous name they would very easily be able to figure out my pas…

so im getting ready to go full time soon and im soo happy and excited about it but the whole thing at work just stresses me out. One thing im super stressing on is that my therapist wants me to go full time before i start on hormones and ive never heard of anyone doing it like this. so i dont know i think i just want to hear what it was like for you girls when you transitioned at work.

Hairy. ugly, horrible creatures. Why do we like them so much?

Ok I have been setting here pondering again , ( yickes not again HeeHee ) Yes , I have often wondered , why it is that so many of us are so eager to leave the past behind and forget all about it , and while we are in transition why we have those moments that we feel ok with the past and others would like to have it burn up in a fire set by our own hands , and I also think that when transition or simply being post op how will this change , will we still feel remorce for the past , the life up until surgery , and will life be any less of a bad memory maker after . Well first off , I am and have struggled with the past , it has haunted my every waking moment why because a…

Hello Everyone my name is Karla and I am originally from the north of England.I am 36. Ever since a young age I have wanted to be female. This at the moment though is not an option, but I am now getting closer to what I want. Society and familial constraints dictate my life in a direction that is not truly me. This is something I hope to rectify in the future, but until then I aim to live my life to the best of my ability's. So a little about my home life. I live with my fiancée, my son who is nearly five months old, also my two step children aged 10 and 11. I have a 14 year old daughter from a previous relationship who I aim to see fortnightly. I also have a blog i…

OK. I'm just working out my problems on your forum. The biggest problem for me is giving up my male identity. He's there, he won't go away. I love him to bits cos he provides the butter on my bread. I don't know. How did you girls sort this out. Another thing, I have a significant other, She's a bit of a Tom I must admit. But if I come out it's going to totally change the the power relstionship. At the moment I'm in charge, but if I accept a female role she'll be in charge. It's not that I mind her being in charge, in fact I find that rather comforting. I'm just afraid she'll make bad decisons. I suppose I'll have to use my feminine wiles on her/him. Take care, HL.
