FWIW.. With Gypsy on the whole lavender thing.

Vanilla, nom.

I love the sweeter scents. Honeybunny got me a scent called "Pink Sugar" that is absolutely lovely. I wish I could eat it...lol....

Hmmm I don't really have any tips? I feel feminine, regardless of any of those things. I do feel somewhat more feminine when I get a compliment from a guy, that's about it I think.

SaraRider; I agree with all the threads on this subject. I feel so feminine when I wear panties under my suits when going to work, especially lace panties. When I go out I too wear an ankle bracelet that gives that extra touch of femininity. I do find myself sitting down more often to pee lately as well. When I take a shower I always use beautiful smelling feminine bodywash, I never go outside the house without female underarm deordorant on and I use it both for underarms as well as my nether regions. I use on my face each night and morning a collagen moisture filler by L'Real. The mild scent that comes from it bespeaks femininty. When I am home I usually wear open toe tights and leggings over my panties. BTW Sara, you don't have to wait for someone to direct you to an article about the dangers of using tampons in the area you mentioned. You can simply google it yourself to find out if what Jodie says bears validity. Perhaps use google scholar so you can get information base on empirical data as oppose to opinion. I do lean toward Jodie's comments about doing what you are doing as being pointless; there are a plethora of things you can do to feel feminine without putting yourself in possible danger. Think of it in this way; what is the ultimate purpose of tampons in the first place, right, to handle genetic female's menses. When I was in Iraq, before going outside the "wire" (combat zone) we would take tampons with us; why, right, so if we were wounded there is nothing better to soak up the blood than tampons. what is my point to all this? Tampons are by design absorbers, now, you may not know this but your colon needs to stay lubricated your stool doesn't wound up getting you some serious problem when it is expelled from your system. If you stick the tampon in your rectal area you are going to have what lubrication you have being absorbed by the tampon. Over time you may cause yourself some harm. Do some research on the matter and try not to expect others to do what you can easily do yourself, especially when it comes to your health; okay honey!

      Congratulations and Happy Anniversary!!!! A beautiful milestone.    I hope to see you tonight...I just have to stay awake long enough!!

      It's funny with photos isn't it, how we think we look in them vs. how we actually do look in them! I'm hopeless at smiling and I have to try really hard not to frown or look like a zombie. I'm never sure how I come across to others.   I had a moment late last night when my eldest daughter facetimed my wife for some now forgotten reason, and when I was handed the tablet and talking to her, I was fixated on my image in the corner. My hair was wild at the time, I was a bit tipsy and all I saw was a woman! I have no idea what she saw in that context. I'll probably never know.

      I hope to see you on the Zoom meeting tonight, April.  I might be late, since I am doing lights and sound for a play that opened last night.  I was home before ten last night, so I think I'll be able to make it.   Today is an anniversary for me.  Seven years ago today, I stood up at the weekly community kaffeeklatsch as <deadname> and announced that henceforth I would be Kathy.  It went as well as I could have imagined: there were some surprised looks, but no hostility and lots of support.  A whole layer of stress disappeared that day and has never come back.  (There have been other stresses, but that one is gone.)  I have been me full-time ever since that moment.

      This is a scarily accurate description of what I feel!   I hope I don't sound too schmaltzy by saying this, but I remember when I signed up to this forum last year, during the sign-up process the question is asked, "Why do you want to join TransPulse?" to which I wrote, "Looking for a home where I can freely write about my issues and interact with similar people."    I think I just found one. ❤️

      Loving this woman I am becoming.

      Good morning, everyone!! I was up early again - already on my third cup of coffee having walked/fed the dog and read the local paper.   We have a birthday party for a friend to go to this afternoon but no real plans otherwise.   I hope to be able to attend tonight's TGP Zoom session. It's been weeks since I've been able to participate with the illness/loss of our dog, two horrible colds in succession and our trip to chase the solar eclipse.   Have a wonderful day and look for the goodness in it.

      I think we tend to be overly critical of our looks, whether we're trying to express ourselves as masculine, feminine or anywhere along the gender spectrum. For me, I use photos as a way to track my progress, to help me find my style and look and to help me find ways to improve myself in posture, looks, make-up, style......   I didn't really think about our FB avatar being public but then realized that when people search they do see it.   Since I'm not out to anyone but my wife, therapist, priest and people here, my FB page remains "that guy." I have created a Bitmoji that is relatively androgynous moving slowly towards the feminine. Long gray hair, earrings, softer features...I'm transitioning it along with myself. :-)

      I so very much enjoy your posts. This one, though, hit home with me for many reasons. I was commissioned in the Army in '77, as well. Like you, I was not overly masculine in the way that many of our contemporaries were. I (still do) cried at weddings, pictures of puppies and babies, when I talked about bring proud of what my units accomplished and was never the Type A leader. In the end, it worked for me and I had a successful career.   This is, of course, your story not mine so I won't detail my struggle. It just took me much longer to understand what the underlying cause of my feelings was and even more to admit it. To act on it.    Thank you for sharing your story, Sally.
