The Trans/Sissy/CD Hangout

[SPARTAN047]

Lovely, I saw a cute Wednesday outfit this past Halloween, I know who i'll be this year...

Very nice. I hope you go out in it. I haven't worn Harley Quinn or Wednesday Addams outfits yet but I want to.

Maybe this Halloween. We'll see. I'd love to try a goth look one day.

 

[SPARTAN047]

Thank you ever so much for sharing SPARTAN!

Glad you enjoyed it!

 

[AlexBailey]

That's it! And Frank'N'Furter.

My dad took me to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show at a University Theater when I was in middle school. It shocked my mom and surprised me, but now that I look back on it I think he may have been reaching out to me in some awkward Dad fashion. It was something he could share without having to talk about it.

In my twenties I went to the RHPS with a lesbian girlfriend who normally presented as butch except that she made the perfect ‘Columbia’. I was so jealous of her even though I got good attention as Rocky.

Some more about myself
Im out to everyone, except our landlord, just out of prudence. Though Im aure theyve seen me wearing my camisoles and short shorts in summer but they probably just think Im gay which is fine lol.

Parents love and support me, though its been a long hard road to that point. For a poor someone living in the american deep south, my life is pretty good. Loving marriage, supportive family and friends, I yet along with most strangers I meet in public (my irl personality is very warm, Ive been told)

I like video games too (I dont like to announce this in About Me rype things cause everyones into them, plus "gamers" as a term has a pretty wretched amount of baggage.)

I want to say here that if anyone visiting the thread has questions about trans people theyve been afraid to ask, dm me. Im happy to educate, and I dont get upset from brusque questions. Ask away!

 

[SPARTAN047]

The way you present in those pics is adorable.
TYVM!


I truly hope you aren’t offend you by me saying that your ‘non-passing’ look is intrinsically beautiful. You are femme and cute and have an attractiveness that includes the full spectrum of your presentation, not just your most femme looks, not just from the right angles.

I'm not offended and I appreciate it. It's a breath of fresh air after reporting and blocking some b17ch on Facebook today who replied 'men trying to be women, ' to one of my comments.

I don't want to interfere in their lives at all, but I wish some of them would stay out of ours.

All of that is so sweet of you to say, hon. I'm guessing you mean my 'non-passable' look in the Xmas picture? Because I was in makeup in the maid outfit.

You’re very cute and I can see that your smile and a hug would melt my heart.

Awwwww, @AlexBailey , that's the kind of talk which melts my heart, my clothes right of my body, and my dripping clitty.

I missed some of your pictures in your thread if you posted them, but from whatever I saw last time I commented, your outfits are very adorable and pretty! I fully understand why you don't show your face and it's the right thing to do. I put up my face since these are on Facebook and if someone wants to blackmail me with my own Facebook pics, they're welcome to try.

Yeah, forum crush.

I can't give a lovely woman like you a rose IRL yet, but it wouldn't describe your beauty and lovely heart anyway.

So here's a virtual one for a mutual forum crush.

That's amazing! Good for you. I was only introduced to GLBTQIA+ movies and events when I was 26 or so, I knew I was female but was too afraid to act on it until I was outside my home and my country.

(I’m being careful about my wording here, and any responses should be similarly careful to avoid any underage referencing to sexuality -that’s not what I’m asking about here.)

What were the first clothes you wanted to wear that weren’t in alignment with your cis gender?


My first interests were in my older sister’s dance and theater costumes - leotards, tights, tutus... My next were her one piece swimsuits. This was long before I had any interest in sex, so it wasn’t originally any sort of kink or fetish.

I was raised in Northern California, so very different than India, I’m sure.

My first introduction to a trans person was in high school on a field trip to a morning talk show with the trans-woman guest. She was the first stealth transgender person I had met as far as I knew at the time. I’d only seen typical obvious drag performers before then. In my head, Dr. Frankenfrurter had been the most feminized male I knew of in media but there is something over the top in Tim Curry’s performance.

Seeing someone who was trans just being themselves was eye-opening… and honestly, it made me feel like a coward.

More liberal, I assume. It's changing though for now.

We never saw them except in the streets. We have a Hindi word for them which translates to 'eunuchs'. Not all of them are.

Sadly it hasn't changed much. Most people don't want to give trans women jobs and they're begging on the streets. I don't think there are trans men at all or maybe they're really under the radar.

Awwww, I'm sure you undertook your journey when it was right for you. All of us aren't the same in thought, experience, and resources.

I'd love to have dressed before 26 but I suppose it wasn't in my destiny . I would fold up my vests and shorts, or wear my tightest boy clothes to feel girly.

It sounds strange but the Philippines is actually more progressive. Not legally but in the culture. While most trans women work in hair salons (like my girlfriend did) there are quite a lot who work in call centers or as teachers and nurses. I see people begging there but not trans people.

Plenty of East Asian cultures are much more progressive than South Asian ones.

 

[SissyBrandi19]

Yeah exactly.
We're (most of us) well rounded individuals!

Im a huge music nerd myself, I play drums, I help keep our garden, I have a helping nature to a fault, sometimes have to tear myself away from ppl so I dont set myself on fire for thier sake, metaphorically speaking. I love dumb jokes, offensive humor (as long as I do indeed find it funny) and Aqua Teen Hunger Force quotes.
I often have a hard time keeping my feet on the ground and if not for my partner to anchor me, Id probably float right off into space.
Likewise I love astronomy and basically everything Carl Sagan ever wrote or said, and I credit him for the wonder I still feel when I look up at a night sky.

Been through some darkness in the past, but in hindsight Im thankful because its given me valuable perspective that so many seem to lack these days.

May not always be the smartest but I like to think Ive gained wisdom to make up for it.

C'mon yall, let's hear about you!

Hey, HUGE music nerd...classically trained pianist since age 5 and fast fwd I play 4 additional instruments 3 self taught. I love astronomy as well, I'm a Pisces...(waiting for reaction)...ok that was a joke...but I do enjoy astronomy domine (little...little Floyd action?). I've got a crazy story, though maybe less crazy than I imagine. It's a bit silly too, or my reaction that is. Long story short, I've identified a UAP on my night sky...been watching it and then a 2nd one then a 3rd. So what does Idiot Boy here, do? I bought me a green laser. Trying to establish contact. These are NOT any type of object that I am going to have the Feds knocking about, I'm quite sure. Fun fact: I've seen Sagan's pad...at Cornell. Do I attend Cornell? Well...I got arrested on campus does that count? No, I didn't...was there visiting a buddy from grad school on his post-doc. Beautiful little town and campus. Lots of wineries too. But was touring them and I swear someone messed with my car and the steering wheel because after about 5 of them, my steering started really fucking up! Sabotage I'm sure.

Yes, I think you are right unfortunately.

Oh god, cringey ass mallgoth Hot Topic stuff for me. Fishnets with a Tripp skirt, demonia style boots, spike choker, diy midriff band shirt.

 

[Sol41]

I dont wanna be too hard on myself though, finding your style is hard, esp when you dont have the developmental airbag that is your teenage years.

 

[Sol41]

Before that, probably mom/sister stuff like a normal tranny XD

 

[Sol41]

Jk

I'm here. Just chilling in the background. Bit of a self absorbed and toxic trans woman. Been on Lit as a reader and editor, though not as much in the last few years. Think I am on my 4th or 5th account, since even before my transition. Need to reschedule bottom surgery, or find a new surgeon all together. Lonely as hell, no real friends anymore, don't talk to my family. Only joy/escape I get is reading these days.

Unfiltered me enjoying the sun this evening/afternoon...

Feel free to DM me if you like. Im always down to chat, or listen to a friend vent or whatever you need. We neednt not suffer alone my friend.

I got a free laser seasion today at Milan Laser. Very lovely experience, that staff were delightful and patient with my many questions and anxieties and they didnt try to rope me into spending more money.

Got my chin done, just one session but its a little extra help when I have to shave.

I did laser for years.... full face and neck, bikini and butt. While it was an improvement, I should have saved the money and done electrolysis instead. Especially so as it is required for the local surgeon before bottom surgery. So I am kinda screwed as there is a year long wait list to get into any provider for e. My area has a huge trans population....

Oof that sucks. My hair is mostly dark and coarse so laser worked pretty good, though I would have to go for electro for those wisdom hairs.

Ive given up on full on surgery tbh. Im exhausted of that carrot constantly dangling in front of me.
I hope you can get yours eventually though.

 

[Sol41]

I WOULD like to at least get an orchiectomy so I can get off these bloody t blockers Ive been on for way way too long.

Orchie was easy. They where gone within weeks of getting my letters. Fortunately my work insurance is really good about covering trans care, they even paid for my tits. Still in the gray area of ffs, waiting on follow up call as I had to renew my letters. Bottom is currently a waiting for a date game. We have 1 surgeon here that does it at the moment, I think another will soon be available with UofL, I'll have to do some research. I'm also thinking of expanding my reach, like Vanderbilt or even traveling to Chicago. I can't afford the time off for east or west coast, so Midwest is it.
