During the holidays, a friend asked me how my marriage was going. I gave the regular answer (I mean normal, not in a dismissive tone. I love my wife, and we are very happy, but I don’t want to bore anyone with it) and continued talking about the weather and clothes. She adm...

When you’re starting your journey get help answering the question, “Do I Need To Transition?”
This is my second attempt at writing this, but my first was consumed by technology – I think I must be a Luddite. It’s now been 6 plus years since I started to crossdress again. 6 years of exploring who I am and who I want to be. 6 years of finally figuring out that I am ...
