The problem was, I just ordered some from a site and we got jipped. If anyone regularly orders or knows someone else who orders from a site, that would be great. Thanks!

How does a man get his wife interested in the idea of helping him transgender? if a man starts wearing his wife's clothes and doesn't like living as a man,and has always wanted to be the opposite sex, how does he get his wife interested in helping him with dressing , makeup, and trips to the doctor for transgender treatments? Most men who are married don't rally need to be tempted by other women anyway and after you;ve had children they don't necessarily need certain parts anymore

How to accept being transgender? I'm a 14 year old girl... but i've always felt like i am a guy. I want to be tough and manly and wear boys clothes... but I don't want to loose the friends and family that I have. How can i accept that I am transgender? It makes me want to cry thinking about it.
How would you break it to your parents that you were a Transgender? I'm fifteen.. and my mom is always telling me that '"I'm a beautiful girl." And using the female pronouns.. and calling me by a girl name.. and I hate it. I want to tell her, but shes always saying how she wishes I'd be girlier, and wear girl's clothes. I know she wouldn't understand and am almost 0 certain she wouldn't let me wear a binder, which I think I may do on my own anyway. She says she'd love me no matter what, but I honestly don't believe she'd let me get any surgery or think at all that I'd know for sure. (Of which I'd be more than happy to go to a gender counselor if she wanted me to, and considering I HATE counselors, thats a big step for me) I'm very serious about this.. And as for my dad.. well he always said that if he found his son was gay, he'd disown him.. he may be different now.. but I can only imagine what he'd do if he found his 'daughter' was supposed to be his son.
Would you say tomboys are transgender? Well I know tomboys are well accepted compared to pretty much any other transgender person, but cross dressing men do identify as male and are considered transgender. Since Tomboys feel a need to express maculinity in some way, such as through wearing mens clothing, wouldn't they be transgender? I'm not talking about the butch lesbians either, I'm pretty sure Tomboys are quite capable of being heterosexual. o.o
Is it possible that I am transgender? I am a 15-year-old girl. I have always identified as a girl and feel comfortable doing so. However, ever since I can remember, I have preferred to wear boys' clothing. When I was little, I was considered a "tomboy". As far as girls go, I am a little more on the masculine side. Also, I don't know if this is helpful or not, but I am asexual, and as of now am not attracted to either gender.
strange, almost transgender-esque clothes question...? haha i probably got your attention with my question headline :] i need help from boys and girls with my question: if i were to were this shirt and i am normally a size small in girls juniors, what size would i be wearing this boys shirt?(girls can help here). by boys, do they mean young boys or boys juniors....? (thats where the boys can help). here's the link to the shirt: http://www.target.com/Boys-Fall-Out-Boy-Tee/dp/B0012QL0DW/sr=1-1/qid=1214372102/ref=sr_1_1/601-6901117-2503341?ie=UTF8&index=target&rh=k%3Afall%20out%20boy&page=1
Am I transgender or genderqueer or nothing? I don't know if I am genderqueer or transgender. I always liked dressing up as a guy and ever since I was little I liked boy stuff. I always hated dresses and skirts and makeup and jewelry. I am actually dreading prom and grad the most. I don't like it when people say beautiful young lady to me and I like it when I dress up and people confuse me for a guy. But I like some girl clothes and I hang out more with girls. I am also a lesbian. I don't know what I am....
What kind of shoes to wear? I'm a transgender that dresses really fem.? I wear really really girly clothes but my family doesn't know that I wear girls skinnies and stuff. I'm wondering what are some cute shoes to wear for spring/summer. I can't wear like flats cuz I couldn't get away with that with my dad. I was thinking maybe about mocassins. any ideas?

transgender? do you think its ok to be transgender?? should guys really wear girls clothing or vise versa??? just wondering because my school is having a debate that will resume monday so i'm just wondering what you guys think? yea that' what i'm talking about smart one!! people who believe that they should have been born a different gender so to be the way they want they dress up!!! zaf.. i totally agree with you.. ishould have made that clear that just because you wear the opposite sex's clothing doesn't mean your transgender... in fact my teacher (female) wears guy clothes and she's not transgender. she just likes the way they fit.

Clothing size gender conversions? I'm a young FtM transgender, about to come out to my parents. My friend and I are going shopping for my new clothes next thursday before I present my new self to my mum and dad, and I need to know what size I'll be so I don;t look suspicious. I'm a medium-large in juniors shirts and an 11-13 in juniors pants (for females). I'd also like tips from other FtM transsexuals or just knowledgeable people in general on breast binding, cutting hair, etc. Thank You. -Richter
What is the term when a person has the opposite sex's genitals? I've searched "transvestite" and "transgender", and both say they're when a person of one PHYSICAL gender has mental urges of the other gender, and/or dresses in the other gender's clothing, etc. But I can't find the term for when a person of one (seeming) gender has the genitals of another gender. In "porn" it's called Tranny, but what's the actual term?
FtM, Genderqueer, Transgender, etc: Where do you shop for clothes? I was talking to my partner the other day about getting a nice suit jacket for myself - I'm always envying his. He'd like to take me to the store where he buys all his nice shirts, ties and jackets from (He's taken me there before, and bought me a gorgeous shirt and tie). It's very much a Men's clothing store, run by these older Italian men, where they measure you and make sure everything's a good fit. I'm... not entirely comfortable with this idea. I already have a difficult time shopping for clothes as it is, without having to worry about being measured, etc. in the store. I know I dress (and pass for the most part) as male, but the men who work in this store have only really seen me as a woman, not a man. I think why it bothers me most is I don't want to be the center of attention. I'd really like to be able to shop and not be bothered by this kind of thing. FtM/TS/TG/GQ/ETC, where do you shop for clothing, and do you have any kind of difficulty from sales associates? I mean, personally I just want to be left alone, it's like clothes shopping is already traumatic enough without adding to it. I wish I could be just a bit more confident when I'm out, I just don't know why this bothers me so much. Anyone else run into this kind of an issue? Thanks in advance for your replies. Jay: I don't really have anyone to "shopping buddy" with, let alone someone who understands the issues I'm dealing with. :(
What kind of hair style should I go for? I have already had help with my clothing and make-up, now I need advice on a hairstyle. I am a transgender girl that is going to live full-time. My hair right now is shoulder length, very thick and straight. I have a round face (not fat, just round shaped) and was wondering what hairstyles would look best on me?
How do I ask my stylist to cut my hair in a masculine style? I'm transgender but not transexual (genderqueer I guess you could say; I bind, I wear male clothing, etc. But I'm not sure I want surgery) & I wanted to get a more masculine haircut. My stylist has known me from when I dressed like a girl and I don't know how to ask her to cut my hair as if I were male. I want her to take off half my length making my hair ear length and use a razor to layer it but i don't want it so femme. Thanks
Fall trends in clothing? I am a male to female transgender person and was wondering if any women could help me. What are the fall trends as far as clothing goes? What essentials should I have? Thanks
Is it normal to hate the human race at the age of 14? Well, I'm 14 and consider myself misanthropic. Is this normal? The only 3 things that set me apart from kids my age are: - Being transgender - Having a higher than average IQ - A different clothing style :/ (Apparently that's important to other kids -.-) Is it weird? To think that humans are disgusting, shallow and cruel? Please answer!
How do i tell my parents i am transgender? I am thirteen years old and have know i was a transexual.since I was twelve. Ever since I was about five years old I was very boyish and loved playing hockey, watching Pokemon and playing with nerf guns. At around ten years old I i felt like something was wrong about being a girl and that i should be a boy instead. I gradually lured my mother into cutting my hair shorter and shorter until I have what i do now. I haven't told her i am transgender yet tho. I also dressed in male clothing. In my mind I thought of myself as male.I've been feeling real depressed lately because of this. I feel like everytime I look in the mirror, I see this sick fake screwed up image of me. I just want to be called, "he" and "him". I want look in the mirror and not want smash it. I want to look male. I can barely stand to bathe as the sight of my own body makes sad and angry. I want a penis and a flat chest. In my mind i've changed my name to Jacob since I was 9. It makes me depressed and angry when my parents call me a she or her i just wish there could be a easy way for me to tell them i can't take it any more.

Transgender dressing questions? Alright, so I still live with my parents, yet they usually aren't at home, and I dress in feminine clothing to feel more comfortable. Sadly, my parents are heavy catholic, and I don't wish to reveal to them that I am transgender, not because it is shameful (which it should never be to anyone), but because I do not wish to "rock the boat." We never have had a good relationship anyway, and plan to move far off, so I wont have to worry much anyway. Back to the question, as of lately, I have been getting sexually exited when wearing the clothes which I am oh-so-good at hiding : P and was wondering why. Usually, I just feel more comfortable with myself, it even helps me do homework, poetry, painting, etc better, but, as I have said, as of lately I have been getting aroused, and, while not a bad thing, it has just been concerning (thousand of thoughts rush in my head "what if I am really not transgender but just a crossdresser!?" and just crazy thoughts like that, seriously don't believe them, I even laugh now I wrote that down) among other reasons, just wondering why it would be happening now more than earlier, only things that have changed is that sometimes I do it when I am unsure they will be home, think that is it? Anyway, thanks for reading this exponentially-long and boring article, please tell me if this is normal, and why it may be happening now more than before. Thank you, I greatly appreciate it- Jane Doe Response to do I want to be a woman... I almost take that as an offense, yet I know that you don't know me (and its understandable that you would think someone might just be a crossdresser as you wouldn't be able to analyze whether or not I am or am not transgender). But honestly, its not a choice, I can't choose to want to be a woman, with the utmost passion and desire. and yes, I am "sure" haha. Oh, and TR, why would you post something like that, it is not, here nor anywhere, appreciated or appropriate.
Is there love whilst being a transgender? So... I'm going through a hard time right now, with a lot of social pressure confusing me and a lot of internal struggle...I think I might be a transgender, but sometimes I fail to admit that or don't want to because you just don't want to be "that" person. I already identify as "Gay" (though I hate the whole 'i have to label myself' thing.) Anywhoo, one of the biggest things for me (problems) is that I'm scared that *if* I am transgender, and follow through with all the surgery and hormonal treatment, that nobody will want to love me. It's hard enough as it is finding love, never having had a boyfriend at about 20 years of age. And another thing is, I do think that I might be transgender because of the facgt that not only do I like androgynous/feminine clothing (love high heels, fur coats, blah blah,) I also hate body hair, terrified of bald spots, want a better hairline, always imagine myself in a woman's position during fantasy time, among a lot of other reasons. SOmetimes I just don't know what to do. Help?
transgender question/school? last week my school told me that how i dressed was a distraction but i am within dresscode i just wear guy clothing and pack and bind they told me that i can no longer dress that way, but im transgender so that is just how i dress so are they allowed to tell me i cant
As a transgender, Why am I who I am? Why am I who I am? That is a hard question for anyone to truly answer. I just would like to understand why I feel so much to be a girl. I started out in my pre teens with dabbling in to moms closet. It progressed in to wearing panties and hose, then in to having woman’s clothing and a bunch of purging along the way so no one would find out. Oh My God, There was something wrong with me. I was just plain weird. I was the only one in the world that felt this way. NO! The times and internet has shown me there is thousand up on thousands of not just Bi-gender or transgender people out there, but transgender web sites, informational pages and groups online. There are a lot of live meeting support groups too. Now that I know there are many others that felt the way I did when younger, now I need to figure out why I feel that I am a girl trapped in this male body that the good Lord put me in. As time goes on the female with-in me comes out more and more. Some may think this is great. They may even say things like, “You Go Girl, Bring it out!” Even hear some things like “Wish I was as out/open as you”. Well, to tell the truth, “It is damn right scary. It works hard on ones mind on what is happening to our self. So, Back to the main question, Why am I who I am? Is it that I wear and have more women’s clothing than men’s. Maybe it is that I can go around the house and yard openly as the comfortable me {Ranae}. It might be my looks, {Long hair, Long nails, always a close clean shaved face, Hairless arms & legs, Both ears pierced, Trimmed eye brows}. It could be that being am out to not just my supportive wife but to the largest part of our family, neighbors, and friends who also accept me as me. It just might be that I go to the TG friendly clubs/bars with the groups. But when you really think about all this. None of this makes me the girl I am inside. It is that I am a inner girl in this guys outer shell from birth and all this other stuff just works to make me feel a little better about the inner me. I have asked myself, Could I do anything else to make me better? Then I realize that anything from hormones to implants to full bore SRS, would only change the outer shell and Sure, It would make one feel better mentally. However, it will never change or make me better, as I am Ranae and that is who I am on the inside and none of the above can ever change that. I fully understand some will total not agree with my statements here, But it is my feelings on how it is for me. Please, for anyone that has gone through any of the fore mentioned, I support you for what you have gone through in your journeys and mean no disrespect to anyone in any way. Ranae Cole So the real question is How is it for you to answer the question "Why am I who I am?"
Am I transgender (mtf) ………? Am I transgender (mtf) OK, so since a very young age I thought it was humiliating to wear relatively revealing clothing. Then when I was nine, I started kneeling on the ground while wearing shorts. I thought that kneeling with bare knees like the was humiliating, but pleasurable, and only did it when NO ONE was watching. I felt pleasure while wearing a pair of light blue shorts I had in particular, and I spent a lot of the day going to the basement and kneeling (or otherwise sitting) on the dirty floor with bare knees, pretending I was punished at school this way (in gym class, our teacher punished us by having us sit on the side, and then apologize). I would also apologize, pretending I was apologizing to my gym teacher. It was really pleasurable. I also I was also developing a crush on a girl at school at the time, and gradually started fantasizing that I WAS that girl, or a similar girl at least. Then, when I was 11, I got a crush on another girl. This time, I was completely fantasizing about being a similar girl, and doing things that the girl did in a similar body. When no one was watching, I used to roleplay as the girl. Gradually, it stopped but I still retained the revealing clothes fetish. Then, when I was 13, I slowly started bringing my revealing clothes fetish out into the public. Since the whole idea of it was public humiliation, I started not only kneeling and sitting in various poses while wearing shorts, but doing so in pretty much public view. I was quite scared at first, but eventually got used to it. I also fantasized about stranger things, like a teacher forcing me to kneel on the ground and not move, so when a worm or something else crawled on my bare leg I couldn’t do anything about it. I started kneeling on the ground and putting ants on my bare thighs and then sit still, not moving, pretending I was being punished. I also fantasized about being forced to make contact with dog **** while sitting, and a few times I sat NEXT to dog ****. All of this gave me erections. Then, when I turned 14, I realized that I wanted to wear not only shorts but SHORT shorts. I was extremely attracted to girls legs in short short,s, and I wanted my legs to be similar to theirs, and for me to be acceptable wearing these kinds of shorts. I also wanted people to think I looked beautiful in them (nom. Gradually, I started to both like and envy girls in short shorts ( like I envied girls in long dresses in elementary school). When summer came, I spent a large time of it doing the same as I was when I was 13, axcept I realized that I also received pleasure from being barefoot. I started pulling my shorts up so they were above my knees, and then going barefoot like that for a short distance, and then sitting down. I realized that being a boy and sitting in short shorts looked foolish, and even the “punishment” feeling would improve If I was a girl. I also started getting a pleasure from wearing crop tops and spaghetti strap blouses, blouses, which I did at home. Before starting the freshman high school year, I thought what it would be like to be a girl once again, and this time I again got a fixation. I always had fantasies of being a girl, first in short shorts, then in mid-thigh dresses. When my parents were at home, I also tried to wear just briefs and a spaghetti strap crop top blouse in the closet, and sitting in various positions. Now I am 15, in freshman high school year still, and I always imagine myself to be a girl at school, or while doing other activities. I have fantasies about getting a “magic” device that can turn you into whatever person you want, and then turning into a girl and walking around everywhere like that. Once, I braved rolling up my jeans to just below my knee and walking a short distance like that. I also have very hairy legs (which I hate) and I want to shave them, but I do not want my parents or brother to find out, so I just cut off as much thigh hair as I can (since all my shorts are knee-length) I also find different ways of shortening my shorts whets when no one is around. I have even thought about the future when technology might be advanced enough for me to enter some sort of “life-like virtual world” where I am a girl. So am I transgender? (note: I’m attracted to girls, but strangely enough, not to t*ts or ss. I like tts when they look proportionate to the body, not overly large and standing out. As for *ss I can’t imagine why would anyone be attracted to that part of the body. Other details: as you can see, I like to be submissive with the “punishments”. I don’t like the stereotypical female hobbies (sewing, cooking, etc.) and I think make-up is horrible. I don’t like sports either. I like the racing game Gran Turismo because of the car collecting aspect, and collecting is one of my favorite hobbies. I also like single-player gaming (with a huge storyline and many levels, mostly action/adventure/puzzle mix game) Internet culture (trolling, 4chan memes, etc.) movies, TV a
Transgender, anything wrong with...? I am transgender, but have a hard time getting over the anxiety of transition. I know SRS probably isn't for me, but the rest of transitioning (hormones and all that) is. Is there anything wrong with completely living as a man while on hormones until I reach the stage where people begin to call me "ma'am" while still dressed like a man then once that happens have the pronoun talk with friends. Is there anything wrong with continuing to wear fairly masculine clothing and still some men's clothing while living as a woman? Of course I'd wear a bra, but men's t-shirts? Basically I'd stay the same except for going on hormones. Once I have trouble being seen as a man in public then I'd start telling people to use female pronouns in reference to me and wearing a bra. At some point along the way I'd have electrolysis on my face. Other than that I really wouldn't do much of anything else...no make up, no nail polish, probably no hair accessories except for a scrunchy to hold in a pony tail (currently growing out hair). I'd wear women's glasses and adopt a female name when I started wearing a bra and using female pronouns. Is this acceptable? Go on hormones, permanently remove facial hair, wear a bra, women's glasses, and a hair scrunchy to hold in a pony tail, adopt a female name and use female pronouns...that's it otherwise remain the same. also is this common, not common, abnormal, odd, weird, creepy, or any other adjective I'm not thinking of at the moment?
Transgender or queergender? I was born male but inside I feel like I'm 60% male and 40% female. Sometimes I think of myself as male, and am unhappy about it, and other times I think of myself as female, and am not sad about it it feels normal. I am comfortable living as male and being addressed as "he" and "him" and all that, but I have a deep need to look as feminine as I can without surgery. Since I first learned what Estrogen was I just knew I should have an estrogen controlled body. All of the things I have because of testosterone I have disliked even before I knew what testosterone was. The more feminine I look, without surgery, the more I see myself in the mirror. I do not want to wear women's clothing or anything, except for tight jeans, but androgynous male clothing, other than the jeans, seems to be becoming more my thing. I have legally changed my name to a female name, one that on rare occasion can be a man's name, but almost always isn't. I do not care if people think it is odd that I have a female name. Does this sound more queergender or transgender?
Question about clothing and sizes???? Ok well Im transgender M2F and well Im wanting to order some order clothing online. ( girl clothes). Well Im not sure what size I wear. I know im a 6 in jeans.

But luckily im not and evryone always tells me im really skinny.
Transgender & genderqueer question: not feeling boy enough? Quick introduction: Me, 34 year old biological female, transgender/genderqueer, trying to pass for male. I've started binding my breasts, I was already wearing men's clothing, and even before all this, I was mistaken for a guy constantly. I am not on hormones (to the surprise of some of my friends) and have no interest in reassignment surgery. Right now, the problem I'm having is that the more steps I'm making towards appearing male, the more I feel like I'm still coming up short. I practice as much as I can, I watch how people move, I notice when I accidentally cross my legs wrong. The more I try to act like a boy, the more I notice the "girl-ness" of a lot of my behaviour. When I dress like a girl, I feel like a boy dressed wrong. When I dress as a boy, I feel like my girl-ness is giving me away (like some kind of great neon sign!). *sigh* This is all terribly frustrating. Does anyone else in the TG, TS and GQ community have this problem? How do you deal with it? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance, as always, respect the poster. <3 dooby: as a transgender/genderqueer person who views themselves as being neither male or female, how would you define "be yourself"? That's exactly what I'm aiming to do.
Difference between feminine male and transgender? Should feminine males be considered transgender? What type of feminine male is transgender and what type is not? I am very feminine, because I usually like the feminine outlook, sensitivity and glam more than macho ruggedness. I am straight guy and hang out with women, but I also usually enjoy only company of women rather than men. I don't desire to wear women's clothes or anything but often wish I were born a girl because I enjoy the feminine tastes and preferences. Is that transgender?
Am I a transgender girl? Hello,I think there is a good possibility that I am a transgender girl. I need your opinion.It had all started when I was five years old. I've always said to myself I wish I were a girl. As a child I wasen't interested in boys toys instead I was secretly interested in girly dolls. I would also see how preety girls were and I wanted to look just like them. I had always wanted long hair but my mom forces me to cut it even month. I've always been interested in girls clothing and make up instead of boys clothing and baseball. I've always wanted to act like a girly girl.but I'd be too shy. I already feel like a girl. I also crossdress and secretly wear make up. I think men look great with 6 pack and muscles but I know it doesent quiet fit my personality. Lots of boys my age are muscular but I'm slim. I like to be feminine. I wish to be a girl. And I feel happy when people call me girl. But the idea of SRS scares me. Even if it is what I want. I know that having a sex change would ruin my dreams of being a priest and joining the USAF. Do you think I'm a tgirl?I feel I am. I need advice please.thank you for all your help. BTW Im attracted to girls and I'm 14years old. I know that I'm not just a crossdresser nor androgynous.
Transgender? Serious Answers Only!? I think I'm transgendered; I have always preferred male clothing, hairstyles & constantly get penis envy. Lately I've grown more favourable of calling myself male names too. I've been this way since high school and it funded rumours about me being a lesbian. I'm bisexual but I would never do girlxgirl. I would much rather guyxgirl or guyxguy. I have frequent cybersex but when I girlxguy then I feel awkward, but when I guyxgirl or guyxguy then I feel more confident. I know I shouldn't be asking a website but I don't know whether I'm transgender or just going through a phase. I've felt like this since I was 13 years old, and have had my hair cut shorter since. I just love everything about being masculine. I get depressed because I'm not :(
how to tell your mom your transgender? Hey,I know I'm a transgender girl.Ever since I was a little kid I always wanted to be a girl.I was interested in their clothing,toys,personality and more.I believe I was about 5 years old when I felt this way.and the older I got the more I wanted to be a female.for I always felt like one.I want to tell my mother about this but don't know how? You see most parents of transgenders know from the start that their kid might be transgender because of the way they speak,act,dress in public.however I was always different I never dared to acted like a girl,dress up like one,or tell any family member or friend the way I feel.I had always crossdress,put make up on,try to act and talk like a girl when my parents are not around. So to society I might seem to be a pround "boy".when in realality I feel like a girl and hope to have a sex change.No one ever asked if I were a boy or girl.My mom has no clue at all that I'm a 15 year old transgender.So I know that if I tell her it would be a complete shock to her.I want to know how can I tell my mom in a way she'll believe me and support me?thanks
I think I am transgender? I don't like women's clothes or makeup. My breasts and vagina drive me to the point of insanity. I HATE being called a girl. I don't identify as a girl. I wear all men's clothing. Have cut off my hair into a boy's haircut. I wear men's shoes only. I call myself by a boys name. The thought of being a girl makes me want to cry. I strap down my breasts down appear to have a flat chest and I absolutely hate anything related to being a girl. I think being a boy would be so much better but I am scared my family won't accept me or understand. I have tried talking with them and they said I need therapy. Am I transgender? What do I do? I feel like I am in pain inside every day. I am not attracted to girls though. I have felt this way for almost three years. I am thirteen by the way.
Would you consider me transgender? So I've always kind ofhad "feelings" of being in the wrong body, but recently like as in past 6 years i'm not sure that i've been real honest with myself about them. it could be denial, subconsciously, societal pressure, or a changein feelings. I'm not sure. However, in the past 2 years, i've really tapped into my feminine side. when i was in preschool i'd wear blush and skirts in school and grew out my hair, and demanded a crush velvet shirt when I was...6!! Now, i'm 20, and i have just started shaving my body hair b/c it feels really disgustingly dirty and gross to me. If that's not enough, I want to wear mostly women's clothing, with the occasional men's touch-up (like a trench or something,) or like a cute man's tshirt but otherwise i like feminine clothing (HATE HATE HATE tuxedos. omg. i avoid them at all costs. would rather wear a dress or somtehing!) Also...i am getting weird about my shoulders/muscle structure/hand structure. I have realllllly teeny hands for a guy andteennnnyyyy fingers, but my arm structure looks like slightly manly, whereas my face is kind of feminine. So what is this supposed to be called? It could be denial that i won't call myself transgender but am i just secondguessing?
Is this possible? Cross dressing transgender? Okay lets say that a girl is transgender and she has surgery and everything right, so she is now a he on the outside as well but he prefers to wear girls clothing ( skirts, dresses, etc.). He likes girls and all and he knows that he is a guy and he had the surgery and everything, but he still wears girl clothes and such. What would he be called? because they prefer to wear girls clothes. I don't know that's why I'm asking if it's possible. I'm sorry if that sounded bad . I know that he is still a regular man. I guess what I should have asked is if anyone had ever heard of anyone doing something like this.
Would you be OK with a transgender person in the same bathroom or locker room? If you were in the women's (or men's) bathroom or locker room and saw that another person there was a transgendered person (i.e. physically the opposite sex, but dress, grooming, and behavior all of the same gender) - would you feel safe, would you feel "OK" with that person being there? ** Please note that the person in question here is behaving in a gender normal way, i.e. is not peeping, etc. ** A transgender female who is pre-op who is on hormone therapy, dresses in female attire, is groomed in a typical female way, and behaves in a normal female way. A transgender male who is pre-op who is on hormone therapy, dresses in male attire, is groomed in a typical male way, and behaves in a normal male way. You're at work, school, or a clothing store, or restrurant, etc. You may or may not know this person.
do you have to be extremely feminine and fashion crazy to be a MtF transgender? i know someone who is transgender and wants to become a girl, but she does not want to become a "stereotypical" female, with fixing the hair all nice and wears a lot of makeup and eyeliner and such. she says she wants to be a girl, and there are different types of girls and she does not have to be a "fashion diva". she is more of a loner, "i wear what i want when i want to wear it", but still extreamly feminine, trans-girl. she says she likes individuality and does nothing that makes her feel like she is trying to be someone other than herself. does a transgender have to be like the ones you see on tv? wearing glamourous clothing and doing everything a "typical" girl should do?
How can I enhance my bustline? I am a male to female transgender with natural a cup breasts. I would like to wear more flattering clothing and would like to enhance my bustline to at least a B cup and possibly even a C cup. My doctor has told me that I probably won't get much bigger up top because the genetic women in my family are all very small chested. I don't want implants (the surgery down below will be enough for me, thank you), so what can I do to have a more ample bust that will also look natural?
Am I a "transgender" if:? (First off, I have a female body but I want a male body) I am NOT a "typical" boy; meaning I don't wear boys clothing but I dont wear dresses either. I am simply androgynous, I wear whatever I want. I don't act like a boy or a girl. I just act like myself...but I know things were definitely WRONG when I hit puberty, and as soon as that happened I started covering up everything that showed female in me such as breasts...Well I was just wondering because most articles I read and the videos I watched states that transgender people knew at a very early age..but for me, I didn't realize it before puberty.
Sexual Expression Vs. Parents Transgender and Fetish? alright. this is difficult. i am transgender male to female i am a music artist. part of me wants to be a pinup model. at the moment i live with my parents.. but i feel as if i have to start expressing my sexuality in music and so on. for the most part im into being submissive. i also want to express this in clothing. i have a pink cat collar, that i wear, that sort of gives a hint or a vibe, but i want to be comfortable wearing it around family.. that, and miniskirts and such.. and i want to be comfortable singing in a more naughty way in my music, even if i am around family recording and such... i do want to be the "bad girl" do you think its wrong to express yourself openly around parents. this is who i am.. and its not like.. im trying to overbear them, im just trying to be myself. and how would i go about opening up who i am to them in a way thats appropriate? they know im trangender, im just talking about everything else. its just how do i go from clean boy.. to bad naughty girl, but i mean it in a cute way, i dont mean, to be raunchy.. how do i go about this around family?
how do i get my perants to understand im transgender? i am a 17 year old i was born female and i have told them i was ment to be male and i keep asking for help they wont listen i wear boys clothes i hate my own body parts im thinking of cutting my breasts off myself i have been depressed they see me as a girl and im not allowed to be myself
my step mother hates my outfits!!! shes "embarrassed" of me!! i am transgender!! HELP!!!? i am a male to female transgender, but i am also gender queer at the same time, i want to be a full on girl, but i want to be able to dress and act the way i want to dress and act.but the other day my step mother told me that the outfits i wore did not match (granted they did not match at all, but i liked them so...) and told me that i should wear "matching" outfits even though i liked that outfit and it kept me warm in the 2 foot deep snow. and told me that she was more of a girl than i am and told me she is "embarrassed" of seeing me wearing non-matching clothing. i am embarrassed of her attitude toward clothing. if i want to wear non-matching i believe i have a right, if she is embarassed of me wearing non-matching clothing than oh well, she needs to find a new house than. i am a girl, but not a Beverly hills, shoppertunistic, fashionista. i wear cloths because i like them, not because i will be made fun of if i don't. i am going on 18 years old, i am almost allowed to smoke and vote. why can i not pick my own outfit??? should i not vote for my canadate because my parents would be embarrassed if i do??? no, i vote for who i want when i want to vote on them. is it going to kill her that i wear a non-symmetrical outfit? my dad thinks along the same lines. am i "less of a girl" because i do not wear any two piece outfits with leggings and a matching top? am i less of a girl because i like wearing one piece clothing that look either "ugly" or "grandma style"? should i even care what other people think? every keeps telling me i should!
Do you think this sounds like a genuine or stereotypical M2F transgender? Right now I'm writing a science-fiction book where the main characters a male-to-female transgender and I've been told that if I don't do enough research and follow stereotypes I'm not gonna have a particular good name so I'm just checking if my character sounds genuine or stereotypical: Right the main character lives and believes she's from the year 2007 and also believes she was born a girl(I can't explain how she doesn't know that she's a male-to-female transsexual without giving the storyline away but i can say it involves a war and that she wasn't born until around the year 2010). Now in the book you never actually see her as a boy you only ever see her after the transition and until about Chapter 7 you have no idea that she's a male-to-female transsexual and it's only then that you get suspicions about it thanx to her future self paying a visit during a night while she's in hospital and you eventually find out along with her in Chapter Twelve when she finally meets her Dad and he explains everything to her. At the beginning though she appears to be an ordinary girl just starting High School, she think along with alot of people that she's 11years old(she's actually way past her hundreds(again can't explain without giving away the storyline), she spends hours on the phone gossiping with her mates, she finds out later in the book that she's feminist, she fights for what she believes in and never gives up and this might be abit stereotypical but she loves pink and loves wearing skirts and dresses and really feminine clothing, she wears make-up and is into fashion, she has abit of a masculine side and is mad about Sheffield United but then again there's quite afew girls who are into football. Personality: Kind, loving and forgiving but knows when she can't let something go and when she must do something even if it means killing someone she will do it if it will result in a greater good in the end(the story is based around a war partly caused by her father), she's very sensitve and is easily upset as when she meets her father she ends up at a school where everyone knows who she is and that she's a male-to-female transsexual and people give her a really hard time. In the book her father is the greatest man to have ever lived, he gave the human race and other new discovered species the largest empires in the Universe until the whole thing was under human control, he was also the greatest scientist to ever have lived in the book and thanx to his research he is over 6million years old but still has alot to learn but thanx to his research in gender and male-to-female transition and vise versa and DNA studies his daughter is biologicaly a girl and is capable of anything an ordinary female is capable of doing. And that is basically my main character for now as I can say she is yet to be improved and I just want to know to help me with improving her: Does she sound like genuine M2F transgender or a stereotypical one? (If she does sound stereotypicakl could you leave me some advice on how to make her sound genuine. If you wish to steel this go ahead but I followed a teacher's advice to tell a couple of friends I trust incase anyone steels it so I have people who know when I came uop with the idea, also I have it all dated on computer so steel it and I'll sue you for copyright theft.

Is it possible to be unsure if you're a transgender? I am 20 now, posted a few times in this column, and i'm currently debating many things. I like to think that i am WAYY more feminine than I am masculine, and feel very out of place in masculine situations like football (i can participate as a joke you know,) or wearing tuxedos or masculine clothing (like polos....ICK.) I have always liked softer more feminine looking things, like for example I have some harajuku lovers feminine hoodie wear it all the time and i love it! but most people think i'm way abnormal. but it's not their decision to decide. most of my life like when i was a kid i always thought i was born a girl and somehow wasn't anymore. now i'm confused. as hell. sometimes i wonder if i am transgender, and i think no matter how strong i am on that conclusion society has a manipulative eye that wraps itself around me and constantly nags at my shoulder telling me it's wrong. n omatter how decided i am. my question to you is, have you gone throuh this experience? i'm so confused. i hate my hair. i want women's hair. no more body hair. smooth legs. feminine features. and...my hands are smaller than some girl's hands i know--delicate looking, long thin fingres, and my jaw is def. feimine. not chizzled, (sp), and just looks girly. sooo?>
How do you get free clothing and accessories for a t-girl just starting out? Does anybody know how to get new free clothing, wig, and accessories? I can`t afford even one set of women`s clothing and I`m still affraid to shop out in public on my own. Is anyone willing to donate new clothing and accessories or know of a place which collects such things for the LGBT community (specifically the transgender community)? I`m just beginning my transition and I`m not sure how to avoid gaps in transitioning while being significantly underemployed and employers unwilling to hire me. Can anyone please help? Thank you for your concerns, yes, I don't have much money to be spending on clothes or a wig, so how do I expect to afford any other aspect of transition, right? Well, I have medical insurance that covers that as far as therapy goes, which is doing fine, by the way...Unfortunately, insurance can't buy that cute skirt in the window...I have the therapist, I have the support network, I just don't have a way to get clothes which I think is also a very important step in transition...maybe not as profound as hrt or grs...but it starts with the clothes for me...anyone know where I can find clothes?
Is she transgender? I have this one friend,a nd she thinks that if she does anything that has to do with the color pink that she will get labeled as a girl girl, and she is obsessed with sports, and a lot of other things that guys r into, and she doesn't watch shows that normal girls watch, she didn't paticipate in a club at school that was trying to help stop sexism, and she acts like a boy, and she says things like she is a boy, like on time we were at lunch,a nd were talking about how one of out bfs doesn't care about his gf, and she said, "BOYS DO HAVE FEELINGS!!", and she was in a bad mood for the rest of the day, and she is very tempermental. Do you think she might be transgender? she also wears boys clothes, i mean literally, she shops in the boys clothes section of the store, and wears boys sneakers.
I am a butch lesbian and I wear mens clothing, but i want to look better for my girl.? *** kind of a repost but changed a little *** My girlfriend and I watched a movie last night "Soldier Girl" and one of the lead characters was a Transgender male that was absolutely gorgeous. I mean if I would have went in somewhere and not known she was a guy I don't think I would have ever known. I am a butch lesbian and my girl is more femme... and drop dead gorgeous. I am looking for info on how to be a better butch lesbian. I want to look better for her, dress better, and just fit the part better. I mean she says she is happy with me the way I am but I want to look better for her. Apart from loosing weight -- which is obvious -- I just want to know what I can do to better fit the part. I wear slacks and dress shirts when we go out. But when we are just around town I wear t-shirts, jeans, ball caps, etc.. I want to look better for her... any feedback would be wonderful..I mean I would be happy in my off days wearing slacks and dress shoes and my hats but I live in a community that doesn't really accept that. Which doesn't really matter to me. I spend most days in a uniform anyway I just want to know what I can do to look more of the part for my girl. I know that It shouldn't matter but it does matter to me and I don't know what I need to do to fix it. I don't want to be a guy or anything I just like mens clothing better. Feedback please. thank you...
