Hobbies


Recommended Posts

Well i was curious about how you guys feel for my issue here. i have a very masculine hobby and i also feel i would have to give up on that hobby if i decided to come out. my hobby is mini bikes and go karts and im afraid if i did wear womans clothing while riding them i might lose some freinds and be looked at weird. also its a very dirty hobby because something always is broken or greasy. But if i were to come out it would 100% be on a go kart but i would have to get all dressed up first and get a wig and figure out makeup.

Careful if you wear a dress, they can get got in the chain/belt or spokes. Major wardrobe malfunction, you'll REALLY be out then, lol! xp

 

Motorsports are often labelled masculine, but you see alot of gals into it these days too. I think it's awesome! 

 

On a side note, I always loved woman's bike frames, that lowered crossbar makes it so much easier to get on the old Schwinn's. It'd be pretty rad to put a little twin cycle engine on one (transition goals)...

I've found with time that i can do everything i did as a woman that i enjoyed doing as a man.  Times have definitely changed.  It would have been different when women were more homebound but today it's not an issue.

I've got a cute '64 Vespa 150 that fills that role so well.  It's just getting licensed and while  i know i should wear protective clothing i'm looking forward to going to the market in a skirt.

Most Tomboy’s  that I’ve seen riding  mini bikes and go carts, do not dress too feminine, they wear clothes able to take the dirt, mud and oil. I’m not saying how you should dress, just giving you my own observations. Check out other women that have similar hobbies, and maybe that could help?

Best of luck with your transitioning!

I am an avid rider. That was always thought of as masculine. But there’s plenty of girls that ride now. There’s plenty of girls into motor sports and racing too. Don’t let society pigeonhole you. Do your thing and done apologize for it.

There are no boundaries as long as you are safe.  Lots of women enjoy "masculine" activities and many men like "feminine" activities.  Don't fret over it.  

 

BTW I am still active with my car hobby.

I am a car nut,pure and simple. Will I stop it once I transition. Not on your life. I also ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles. If that isn't masculine  I don't know what is. I will still wheel my Street Glide. Building model cars, yep still gonna do that.

I haven't seen a hobby or sport a female hasn't done. I wouldn't worry to much. Who says you have to dress any different from what you do already. Whose to know what you wear underneath  either. ?

Well for just normal riding i wouldnt wear a long dress and i would still wear a wig or long hair but ponytailed most likely it would be in some leggings but i would have a dedicated pair. You guys really make me feel like i could come out but i dont think im quite ready.

I love to play World of Warcraft, Dungeons & Dragons. I love to throw the football, play some basketball, build sandcastles, ski, make things out of paracord, ride bikes, and other things. If anybody told me it was too masculine or too feminine , I would put them in check. If my friends had a problem with me, I would tell them they do t have to join.

Although it would be hurtful, I don’t want people that are mean or @$$*’s in my life. Don’t need it, don’t want it.

There are lots of women around here who ride bikes. It's very uncommon for them to wear skirts though. Generally the clues are almost down to slight differences in build or even riding style as the clothes they wear are pretty much identical, even men occasionally wearing feminine coloured helmets (eg pink!).

While in the closet i spent some years as a licensed buckle racer.  I loved the fact that i could wear skin tight leggings over shaved legs and colorful team shirts.  Unfortunately my heart couldn't take it. Fortunately the growth of blood supply to my heart due to the intensity of the sport probably kept me alive through several heart attacks.

I have a cute skort cycling outfit in my drawer that i hope to be able to wear someday if my Dr. says yes.  I'll just have to lie back and watch the kids go past.

I feel like coming out so bad but cant bring my heart to it. Most likely when my mom becomes a truck driver if ever i will come out to my dad as transgender im a very strong confident person usually but when my girly side comes out im a bit shy and shake alot. I have already ridden a toy on my mini bike but thats the most ill ever do outside besides mabey wear legging under pants but im too scared of doing that. It feels so natural to cross dress and i really feel like exploring beyond in my room but dont have the guts to do it.

It is often best to stay in ones comfort zone.  Times may change and in the future you may or may not feel like you need other ways to feel right about yourself.  I know i waited much of my life to even start a gender exploration.  

I was afraid of going out even in a pair of well hidden panties.  It just wasn't my time.

 

Hugs,

I haven't ridden a two-wheeler of any sort since sometime around completing high school.  However, it terms of hobbies, my spouse and I hunt and fish as much season and time permit.  I also enjoy target shooting.  Functionality,  not fashion, is the norm for those hobbies, although area- or season-specific camouflage apparel can lead to a more successful hunt.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Who, precisely, are "they"?

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
