I'm AMAB been experimenting with a more feminine presentation for some time as an adult. At first, I'm not sure I was really conscious of it being a desire to look more feminine. I'd buy male skinny jeans and fitted tees, but that didn't feel quite right so I'd cuff the jeans into capris. Then I added an ankle bracelet, which I liked, but it kind of felt like the limit for an ostensibly cis-male in public and even drew surprise from my wife. So, I moved on to trying more things in private and, somewhat to my own surprise, feel really comfortable and sexy adding some platform heels to my capris and donning a more feminine top and wig; I'm older and don't have much hair of my own anymore ;) Make-up is still difficult but I'm practicing when I can. On the first attempt I just looked like some dude from Motley Crue, which could be fine but not what I'm going for day to day :P Not sure exactly how I got here or where it's going. I've had to search my past a bit to speculate why this would be emerging now, in my 40s. I've always been a more effeminate individual; it just bleeds through somehow. I grew up being called '-awesome person-' or 'fairy' constantly, although there was never any question in my mind that I liked girls. In junior high I briefly experimented with applying make-up until a friend convinced me I'd get my butt kicked if anyone from school discovered it (mid 80s). Remembering these things lead me to think I perhaps just buried this aspect of myself for ages in fear. I learned to be masculine and the teasing eventually stopped. I'm still relatively new on my journey, so I'm here to learn and figure myself out more. After lots of reading I suppose I currently identify as transfemme. Haven't come out to anyone yet. I feel like I need more experience and searching to be sure. But I'm definitely having fun along the way! Cheers everyone! -

Yeah… As an exvangelical in my case. Guess I'll listen to that part of me this time. -

Day was fine at work. The District Manager was there. She actually likes me so everything was fine. Since I was the lowest level person there she had to ask me the questions they ask every time they come. Then apologized for having to ask me. (Yes I answered them correctly). After she left I learned that there was a meeting scheduled with her for May 23rd for the entire management team (4 of us). I’m not certain what that’s about. No sense speculating it’s probably just getting ready for the summer crush. good night 3 am comes early tomorrow. Willow -

Thank you. It seemed to me when I was driving home that I had a bit more bounce in the rear end over bumps so I'm wondering if the frame was bent. I will have them check it tomorrow morning when the do the appraisal. -

There is just a feeling that this is normal when I wear f clothes. As a biological male I am supposed to, I suppose, experience dysphoria in f clothes. Instead it is reversed. Sometimes there is euphoria about being a girl, but it is because my self-perception is lining up with my self-expression. Clothing is actually secondary. Or third. Secondary is what my body looks like. I am a girl regardless of what I look like. I just am one. As I get used to this I will probably stop talking about it. Most women do not go around announcing they are women all the time. They talk about themselves but the presupposition is that they are women. Never a matter of debate. -

Do you feel euphoria when wearing feminine clothes? I'm curious about why you think you are supposed to feel dysphoria in fem clothes. I totally get why you would feel dysphoria with masc clothes. For me what urged my transition forwards was the amount of gender euphoria I got from dressing like a guy , and my dysphoria from wearing anything remotely fem got worse and worse until i get rid of evey fem article in my wardrobe and all my makeup, so I could concentrate on just being me and chasing the euphoria. Dysphoria didn't go away though, because I've been misgendered constantly and it hurts more when dressed in my man clothes . However now I'm on T, my doubts and dysphoria have massively lifted and I'm excited to see the masc changes to my body happening. I do have to learn patience though lol. -

Well that's no way to start off a birthday. Be sure to look at your frame just behind your rear axle to make sure it wasn't bent. When I was rear ended... At first look it appeared that my bumper was folded down, however the frame was bent which also bent the floor of the bed. I'm glad everyone is okay Happy Birthday, Mindy🌈🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -

Well, I am a veteran. I did manage to get an honorable discharge - just barely. I was drafted to start with, and I wasn't wild about it. But I figured it was my duty as a citizen, so there's that. TBH I find it hard to stomach people who dodged the draft, going on and on about being such "patriots" and all, and literally hugging the flag. My egg hadn't cracked yet when I was serving, so I don't think being trans directly affected my time in uniform. But there was most likely some subconscious stuff. Sorry, I don't think this is much use to you. -

That was just one reference that came up. I originally saw it somewhere else. Technically, he did call for the eradication of "transgenderism". But it would be hard to get rid of that (whatever it is) with us still here. Yeah, later, when he got called out on it. I don't really see how you can say this. Sure he doesn't know what he's talking about, but the damage is real. I will bend over backwards to give someone the benefit of the doubt. But at some point…. I'm just not as limber any more. They can say what they want, but actions speak louder than words, and when I see what is happening in red states it is obvious. They do want to get rid of us. I'm tired of pretending they don't. -

For a time I would get an anxiety attack when I had to dress in male mode. Haven't tried it in a while. -

Thank for the birthday wishes, everyone!!! It started great...and then I was rear-ended at a highway construction site this morning. I'm OK. The woman who hit me was shaken - was going fast enough to deploy her air bags. I was at dead stop. Her car had to be towed away. My truck too a hit to the tailgate and the bumper. It seems OK otherwise but I'll know tomorrow when they do the appraisal. UGH! Happy Birthday to Me!! :-)
