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...
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...
So… My father passed peacefully at home. I knew it was getting close as he was sleeping more and not wanting to eat solids. His mind was there, but I knew he was processing the coming end. When he gave up wanting to drink his nourishment and told me he didn’t want his daily b...
First, a little background about me, for those who haven’t read my other articles. I am a 67-year-old trans woman, who came out only two years ago. It has been a whirlwind of changes, some good and some not-so-good. I was a lifelong crossdresser (although now I consider dressin...

On October 7th, I went to a courtroom of the Superior Court, County of Los Angeles, to collect some exceedingly important (to me) paperwork: the official court decree establishing my legal name as Dana Renee Munson… and my legal gender as “female.” I had filed t...
Here’s the Thing… I don’t come with an on/off switch. How convenient would that be? To be able to shut off my feelings and close down my brain when I need to be me. Right… which me are we discussing again? That is always going to be the issue. I was standing next to...
I’d like to share my experiences growing up. Venting can be therapeutic. I was a super shy and polite kid. Even now, I refuse to use profanity and always put others’ needs before my own. Maybe that’s my problem. This past year, I’ve been feeling like I’m an imposter. Pr...
There is so much feeling put into the preparation of becoming the woman we envision. The excitement that builds as a certain time gets closer. It can be the world’s greatest distraction. The hands of the clock moving at a speed slower than snails on a glue trap… Many have the...
