Specifically full leg hosiery like panty hose, or thigh high stockings with or without garters. Different folks have different opinions on these so I decided to try out the thigh high and garter side of the world. Garter belts Garter belts come in two forms – decorative forms meant for undressing and practical forms meant…… Continue reading Hosiery
Bras as a garment
You might be like me. Getting my first bra was exciting and felt like a real step toward becoming a feminine person. Ignored was any discomfort, plus I could only wear it for a limited time when I could play “dress up” at home. For me dressing up wasn’t exciting but it was soothing and…… Continue reading Bras as a garment
Hips
I was looking in the mirror yesterday and I realized that I’m shaped like a woman. Not a little, a lot. My hips start below my rib cage and end at my thighs – I’m a hefty sort even after losing about 20#. I knew I had something there, I just didn’t realize what. Go…… Continue reading Hips
Transsexual is the word?
I’ve slowly come to the conclusion that I can’t call myself transgender because the term has become too inclusive. Cross dressers and drag queens are often considered transgender. People who have no desire to live in their identified gender are considered transgender. It’s all becoming a madhouse between that and people making up fanciful but…… Continue reading Transsexual is the word?
Make up
OMG I just was packing up my makeup and I was overwhelmed. I’m not moving far, just down the hall switching apartments. But everything has to be boxed up for the movers. I started on the makeup, I must have twenty lipsticks/lipstains/lip gloss in various tubes and bottles. I could use a different one each…… Continue reading Make up

The Non-Binary Life
Admittedly I’m revisiting this, but maybe I’m allowed to be human and have a rant now and again. Trans folks transition because to alternative is often to remain horribly depressed, gender dysphoric and even suicidal. We have a serious medical condition and we take steps to solve that and pay a huge price for taking…… Continue reading The Non-Binary Life
Masculinity and Femininity
I’m reflecting here on things I’ve read, my current life and my life before all this started. To start with I’ve always wondered at the labels. It seems that the best we can be in this life is ourselves and not force a particular set of values and behaviors. Self confidence in who we are…… Continue reading Masculinity and Femininity
Sharp Winds
The hot winds hit like a mace Flesh withers before the blast Just a daily case The south winds blow too fast All to blame none to take Far away or close at hand Pretends to real but often fake False dreams made of shiny sand The storms they twist will they hold The slippery…… Continue reading Sharp Winds
Sometimes the Wonder Takes Me
It was the other night as I lay in bed. The lights were on and I was between watching YouTube videos – a bad habit of mine and now you know! Lying there I was overcome by two feelings. One was feeling as peace and the other was feeling whole. The man that I used…… Continue reading Sometimes the Wonder Takes Me
