If Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars...

Where are transgender folks from?
Perhaps we are the "earthlings"?
Think of the possibilities and the challenges.
No matter if you put a dress on once a week or you've fully transitioned, we earthlings are a unique tribe.
We suffer the same problems as Venus and Mars, and quarrel about them in similar ways. After all, the gravitational pulls of the other two
planets tug on us daily.

We are uniquely flamboyant or conservative in our dress and mannerisms as we struggle on our planet.
The problem with our planet is that we have opened "Pandora's Box" and we can't close it. All the different glittering gifts in the box fascinate! Those gifts send us down different paths we don't understand our self.

Imagine what that must be like for the inhabitants of the other two planets? From downright hatred and violence to curiosity and
acceptance-we get it all!
What's an "earthling" to do?
We hash and rehash our lives here to each other. In many cases we are all we have to communicate the pain and the joy of our planet.
All of this it's helps us to become stronger.

We need to believe in our tribe and embrace it's diversity! We have lived in the other two camps. If in the smallest way you can use that knowledge, you are one of God's chosen creatures. What ever God you believe in.
Communicating with the two other genders is a rare gift. Learning it and using it is the challenge. Accepting the challenge and being successful will make our planet a much better place to live!!!!

Going the Way of the Dinosaur?

Admittedly, in my formative years a pair of pantie hose was as close to heaven as I could get.
Like so many others, I ruined my Mom's on regular occasions.
As I became mobile with my own finances, clothes and hose became easier to obtain.  Seemingly every discount and convenience store had the rack of "Leggs' Egg's".
The more I progressed in the "girl" mode the less impact pantie hose had at all.  In fact these days, women where I live don't wear them at all unless they are 65 or older.
I knew that. I'm "bare legged" in my summer fashion to the greatest extent possible.
Recently, an "admirer" expressed interest in seeing me in "hose and heels."
Not desiring to let him down, I went shopping for a pair of nude pantie hose. Hoping for the best of both worlds.
I needed to make my legs look better, make him happy and still have the bare legged look.
I figured I would go to Wally's World (W-Mart).
They have always had a great selection of hosiery.
WRONG! I'm not exaggerating, the store had only 50 pairs to chose from..
It's summer I know, but come on!
Sadly, another part of my youth has passed me by. No muscle cars with the hot red head slowly crossing those nylon legs!
Well, it's not totally gone. I did buy a pair and loved the experience  last night in my denim skirt! It did feel great to welcome an old friend back to the wardrobe.

I really liked the 4 in heels on one of the girls...i washed hands they never gave me a 2nd look!

Very hot got a few looks on arrival. Interestingly, none in last trip to rest room.

New look tonight. Back to straight black hair and denim mini. So far so good!

If Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus where am I from?

A "Traditional" Girl?

I recently sent these comments to another blog. The question was why hetero men might prefer a trans woman. This is not the first time I've responded to questions similar to this! But here it goes again:
I visit several straight pubs on a regular basis and it has not been uncommon to strike up conversations with presumably hetero guys at the bar.
For the most part, the men are middle aged professional types.
Here are my top reasons we get along.
1.- Yes I do work hard to be as attractive as I can. (I’m told I present well)
2.-I don’t want to have their baby. No pressure.
3.-I don’t want their checkbook. (But they can buy me a drink! )
4.-I can talk a real “mean” sports conversation. (Or cars or work)
5.-I do understand their day to day problems and job pressures. (the conversation is ALL about them)
6.-I won’t nag.
7.-I don’t need or expect a long term relationship. (back to the baby part) You see I’m not on a date count before I want a ring.
8.-I’m real discreet. (don’t take me home to meet your family)
9.-I will dress up for a guy. It's the fun part!
10.-I just work harder to look better and be more attentive to a guy.
Traits that most women have tossed aside.
For the most part, I used to shy away from talking to men on a “one on one” basis. (I’m normally by myself.)
Recently I’ve changed all of that. Most of my conversations have proved I can compete socially with GG’s and I love it.
Being in the middle does have it’s benefits on occasion.

I was invited to an 'end to alimony' party tonite by my BFF 'A'. It was a great time! Thanks
