I am AMAB, now 68. I’ve been aware of my gender incongruity since I was five. Since that young age, I have struggled with the question, “Why do I have such an intense desire to be a girl?” It wasn’t just that I wanted to dress as a girl and now a woman; no...

It is very unusual for me to pop into the chat room and NOT see a reference or discussion about “passing”. Whether or not it is healthy, we, as a community, seem to have a fixation on passing. You all know the questions: “Will I pass? Am I passable? Will they cl...
Mental Health. What does Mental Health look like? Mental health is a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well, work well, and contribute to their community. In an uncomplicated way, mental illness is ...
I experienced probably the most important epiphany in my life a few nights back. I’d spent all day running around on a hot, 90+ degree day, running errands, and checking in on a couple of sick friends. When I got home, it was late; I was beat, tired, and hurting. There is a...

When I first thought of sharing my CD experience in written form, I must admit it was overwhelming to consider it as practical, let alone relevant. One’s personal experience is just that… essentially “personal” and not necessarily universal. And yet, there are many “com...
I love pantyhose. There, I’ve said it. I love wearing them; I love the way they look; I love the way they feel. I just love everything about them, including caring for them. I have a dozen or more in my current rotation, and many, many more in reserve. Like panties, I can never...
