Our lives are dictated in action by the mood we are in. In this world that we live (crossdressing) it can be amazing the mood transformation that happens the instant we begin the process of becoming our inner woman. Troubles fall away, smiles return, and for a brief moment things...
I struggle with understanding and accepting my identity; it feels as if I always have. Looking back on nearly seven decades, my sense of who I am has wobbled with an eccentric orbit between the poles of gender identity, at times near but never touching definitive masculinity or f...
The need to transition for many of us can literally become a life or death affair. The effects on overall health, the constant stress, anxiety, and self-loathing caused by not accepting your true self can affect the physical, emotional, and mental health of trans men and women. I...
