OK, so I'm sure that all of you know I'm a pirate. ARRRRRR!

I have been watching movies just about every day, but I want to watch more movies about transgendered people. I prefer movies about transsexuals, but I'll watch anything.

So! What are some good movies about transgendered people? I've seen Boys Don't Cry and Hedwig and the Angry Inch so far. What else is out there???

Okay, off the top of my head, bearing in mind I've not watched them myself, never had the time on the ocassions they are on over here.

Pricilla, Queen of the desert

Transamerica

One I have seen however and really enjoyed was Kinky Boots!

Seems like most of them don't have very good endings..like Boys Dont Cry.

Soldiers Girl was good until the end.

Better than Chocolate has a trans character in it.

Seems like there was a topic that had a pretty long list of movies on here somewhere already.

I don't know if you can find it, but if you ever get the chance to watch "Medical Center" The Fourth Sex: " (1975) give it a shot. It was a TV series and aired while I was home on leave. I remember watching it in excitement thinking, "Man, if only I could do that!" But I couldn't show my excitement since Mom and Dad were both watching it as well. My Dad was hell bent on his boys being boys.

But I was disappointed with the ending. Seeing Robert Reed as the female bothered me because he didn't look natural. I was already large and knew that if nothing could be done with the face, I would be an ugly woman. It was hard enough just being a large insecure male. I knew I couldn't handle a sex change.

However, today's procedures seem to be so much better. God Bless Technology but more importantly, God Bless those who paved the way.

"Medical Center!"

Thank uyou Dawn, I was telling someone about this episode a while back and I could not remember the name of the series - I clearly remembered that episode and its title.

Do you remember the episode name about the intersexed boy who was having health issues and had to be made one sex or the other and his parents had to choose?

I saw the last half of it once and it left me very confused.

Love ya,

Sally

The film kinky boots was set in my home town ;) . I watched it and to be honest I found it dull but maybe because I had a boring day and watching a film just sent me to sleep.

A few others that may be of interest if you'll accept CD'ing as against trans-sexual films.

How about St. Trinians, both the old lack and white versions with Alistair Sim as the Headmistress or the new versions with Rupert Everett.

I actually have seen Transamerica, I watched it with my mom, just as a regular movie since I wasn't involved with anything trans related at the time. I think it was good for my mom especially, since soon afterwards she had a coworker transition mtf. But even beyond that, it was just a good movie. =)

I rented Hedwig the other day, but I burnt it and haven't had a chance to watch it. I heard it's good.

It's very good, especially if you like punk rock.

How about the following -

'To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar'

Victor/Victoria

Ma Vie En Rose

Ready? Ok.

A Girl Like Me. Gwen Arujo Story.

Some Like It Hot

Good-bye Charlie

Switch

The last two were very mainline movies with 'magical' transformations that were both daring and extremely tame for their times. That gender switching was even being considered in movies of that type was amazing.

Stage Beauty is a film about someone questioning their gender identity in the background of a really awesome film. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0368658/

Zerophilia is a funny, not-trans-per-se film that has one hell of a lot of gender switching in it. Quite interesting when viewed from the 'gender is a spectrum' viewpoint, but it's about as intellectual as you decide to make it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421090/

Better than chocolate... Is the trans character an important character? I don't care so much if he or she is hardly on-screen.

I saw Normal when it came out. It was actually how I learned what transexuality was! I remember watching it with my mom. I was... 12. Hmm. I remembered it the other day and meant to post it here, but forgot, I'm glad Carolyn did. I need to see it again though, I don't remember it too well. I liked it a lot at the time though.

The trans character is one of the four main characters. It is mainly a film about lesbians, but the trans character has a song that you are sure to get a laugh out of.

That movie is great! but be warned it is really sad/hard to watch at parts. probably more so if another trans is watching and can relate! but still a wonderful movie. can the french do any wrong? my answer: no

Hi Sally,

Sorry it's taken so long to respond. I don't remember the show you are talking about, but I do remember some show (real life) where a botched circumcision on a baby boy destroyed most of his penis, so the doctors and parents decided on making and raising him as a girl and it didn't work. She(He) knew deep down that he should have been male. So that blows the argument that upbringing makes a difference.

If you ever do find out the name of the movie you're talking about, let me know, I'd love to see it.

When I went to look for it on the site I usually get my torrents from, a TS porn site popped up. How revolting!

Anyway, I just thought it was an interesting and disgusting thing and I thought I should share it.

LOVE

Belle

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."
