When I first started wanting to go out while dressed as a woman, Jules and I were both pretty afraid of something bad happening to me. I had spent many, many, many! years hiding who I am and what I liked to do. For about 10-15 years the only person that knew about my gender variances was my wife. We were both terrified of anyone finding out. Eventually I shoved myself out the front door and somehow managed to start…
The other day I stated to Jules “Oh yay! Finally!” She questioned what was going on. I responded with “I so do NOT want to put this dang bra on.” She laughed. And I continued “But, to drive the point home, I am going to still do it.” This conversation is a good example of how my bra experiment is going. If you do not remember, in a previous post, I mentioned that I am trying to wear a bra…

Spousal Acceptance
April 25, 2015There are often a vast number of factors involved in how one’s spouse will react to a reveal of being transgender. And I cannot possibly be an expert on all possible spousal responses to such a personal and delicate manner. All I do know is how things have gone with my spouse. I have lived this life and am quite aware of what it has taken to get to where I am. And to get to where I am has…
Within the last few months this blog has had some ups and downs. A few months ago the number of visitors to my blog practically doubled overnight. I was shocked at the number of new visitors. It was interesting actually in that the number of visitors doubled but the number of comments actually went down. Blogging is weird. I like it, but it is weird. I often wonder: Who am I writing this blog for, the reader, or the writer?…

The First Photo of Me Crossdressing
September 16, 2014I think when this photo was taken I was 16. I could be off a bit, but that is what makes the most sense to me at this point considering my history. Can I first point out, what am I doing with my hand? What is that, the supposed gesture of a real girl? Okay and secondly, what is that look on my face? Again, the expression that I thought a real girl would make? OMG, hilarious! Oh and one…

Coming Out Summer – Tale #2 – Texting Out
August 27, 2014The first tale I told of coming out this summer was to my friends M & T. That was a fantastic experience. This tale is maybe not as exciting but it was just as special to me. While discussing my gender with M & T they asked if I had told J yet. J is a friend of T and has over the years become a friend of mine as well. He is a great guy. But I still had…

Coming Out Summer – Tale #1 – Live & Learn
August 7, 2014This summer I have been really struggling with what to wear in what locations. Generally if I am sticking around the house I will wear female shorts and some shoes sometimes male, sometimes female, and maybe a female tank top. But the thing that has bee bugging me is that when I need to go into town for something, say a Lowe’s run for project supplies, I will change my clothes to be more socially acceptable. Meaning, I get out…
