Rick asked:


I am seeking women’s thoughts and feelings about straight males who prefer being women, dress and develop feminine bodies but are not ***! I love women! I respect women with all my soul and I befriend women way more than men. I am unfortunately very masculine in appearance, educated, well traveled and well read. I am a professional, I am a musician and I am married to a woman who enjoys my dressing but not my *******! I have a hormone imbalance and instead of trying to reverse it, I embrace it and I enjoy my femininity. I so want women to accept me and be my friend and even want to hang with me and go shopping and enjoy many other activities together. Yes I wear heels and very nice feminine clothes and I enjoy certain brands of lingerie. I do not flaunt my femininity in bad taste or to an extreme like some trans males do. It is important to me to be on my best behavior and look as best I can. I want feminine ****** surgery to help me appear more feminine. Now your turn with answers.
I may be wrong in the factual reality of name, I apologize. I am a male who is becoming female or feminine rather than a *********** who either has the operation. I have female ******* and prefer being feminine.

   They usually look better than naturally born women. Their make up is flawless, unless they are the broke trannies, then they just look tired, and trifling.

   Once again……..a transgendered male is a female to male, a transgendered woman is a male to female. If you identify as a male, please do *********** women a favour and simply refer to yourself as transgendered.

   added: You stated you wish to become feminine, not female. That would make you transgendered period without the male. A transgendered male is FtM oriented. Transgendered is not the same as *********** and transsexuals are NOT transgendered. Trans means to cross and gender refers to your identity as a man or woman and transsexuals do not change gender identity, it remains the same and in fact is the source of the problem.

   Whatever floats your boat! I think it’s awesome when people have the confidence to do what makes them happy despite it going against social norms. I also think the concept of gender roles is pretty absurd, especially in this day and age in a technology-based society as opposed to a tribe of hunters and gatherers. There’s no good reason why men shouldn’t be able to express and embrace their feminine sides to whatever degree they like. If that includes anything from wearing lipgloss once in a while to completely identifying as a woman, you get props in my book for having the self-confidence to be who you are.

   Rick,

   If you were born with the body of a male and you are identifying and presenting as female, you are transgendered. Whether or not you have surgery is irrelevant. Many trans-folk opt to not have any surgery, but yet they are still trans.

   Keeping this in mind, you would NOT be a straight man. Instead, you are a *******. My advice to you is to find a therapist who specializes in gender issues to help you sort through the feelings you are having. A therapist can help educate you in the area of trans. as well as help to giude you in making the best choices for you.

   Check with your local PFLAG Chapter. They will likely have a list of qualified gender specialists in your area.

   Good luck, and congratulations on having the courage to be who you really are despite what others think. You are a brave soul to be commended.

   Uhm, im not sure but im guessing you may have some feelings that you are transgender? I am a transwoman. My sexual experience involves primarily females, i therefore am a ******* or at least bi sexual . Straight men do appeal to me but again i have no experience with them. It sounds by what you are stating that you have some cross dressing tendencies. That is completly normal dont feel that you are abnormal or a freak. Perhaps you are indeed transgendered but that determination requiers alot of introspection on your behalf, simple crossdressing is not transgenderism it goes quite deeper than that.. Before you make any decsions you should look within yourself and decide what is best for your long term mental health. The decison for or against any feminization surgery should not be made without DEEP itrospection on your part. There is nothing wrong with being a feminine male, and cross dressing is a perfectly natural part of that but *** change is irreversable. I would recommend that you check out the book The Female Brain by Dr. Louann Brizendine MD and decide if it applies to you, because what you may be experiencing may just be a simple need to explore. I wish you the best and hope you really take stock before making any decisions for or against.
   Peace
   Cara

   I have a similar situation… funny ^^

   Except I’m single. haha, good thing your wife likes your dressing.

   i’d say, go for it? Especially if you’re not financially strapped or having a hard time with the family. And yeah, as long as you don’t over do it or try too hard…

   Ooo, and make sure your wife’s okay.
