How to explain to others what it's like to be a crossdresser/transgender?
Started this discussion. Last reply by HELEN BRADY Mar 31. 8 Replies 0 Likes
I once read a blog about explaining to genetic born women what it's like to be a cross dresser or transgender individual. It had the woman imagine that she wanted to hang out with other women and…Read More

- 100 Words About Me:
- I currently live with my dad and brother, but haven't told either of them (or most of my friends) about my dressing. The friends that I have opened up to have had reactions ranging from "Oh, okay, that's fine" to being really interested and asking about different styles that I like and my history of dressing. I really am grateful that it hasn't really changed any of my relationships for the worse.
I'm interested in starting to get out and appear more feminine on a regular basis. I went to First Event in Boston in 2012, but haven't been to any events since them.

"Thanks for the comments, ladies! <3 I had taken a few more photos that night, but I guess I didn't follow all the rules because this was the only one approved. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to refresh myself on them…"
Julia Giannopoulos commented on Janelle Dawn's blog post April 2013"Wow! And to think when I go to the store I'm usually in a t-shirt and shorts and an old pair of flip flops."

This post is a few weeks late now, but I haven't had much time to just sit down and write for a bit. Anyway, April 2013 was a very eventful month for me.The first thing I did as Janelle this month was to go out dressed up for a quick trip to the store. My dad was at a dance class with his girlfriend for the night, and my brother was at his night classes for college. I used this opportunity to get dressed up in some jeans, boots, and a lacy t-shirt. I finished the look off by straightening…See More

This is the top half of the dress I put on to watch the movie and enjoy a glass of wine. I paired it with a hair band, which isn't really visible from here. I bought this dress earlier in the day too.
HELEN BRADY replied to Janelle Dawn's discussion How to explain to others what it's like to be a crossdresser/transgender?"I am a transwoman PERIOD! However my stupid company told the store manager and all of our employes there that I was a male crossdresser, even though my ID that they have is FEMALE.
The time I was there was not happy. I got a lot of are you a…"
Ashley Collens replied to Janelle Dawn's discussion How to explain to others what it's like to be a crossdresser/transgender?"A crossdresser can be happy at dressing and being accepted as their biological gender. A transgender can't. Passing and being recognized as the opposite gender isn't a want at that point but is a need. "
Erin Detty replied to Janelle Dawn's discussion How to explain to others what it's like to be a crossdresser/transgender?"Being a CD you could try to explain yourself to others, I wouldn't unless you were asked but that's entirely up to you of course. Transgender I don't try to explain it unless I know the person well that is asking and I don't…"

Recently I told a fifth friend about my dressing, and she seemed to be the coolest about it. All the other friends that know are more of the tomboy type, but KK actually wanted to go out shopping with me and talk about makeup. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to do so before I came back to the States. I wish I had told her earlier in the week when I was in London!
After thinking back on this though, I realized that as I tell more of my friends about my dressing, I have also…

Following the high I got from my first time out as Janelle two weeks ago (read about that experience here: http://pinkessence.com/profiles/blogs/my-first-time-out-1), I am feeling more confident with myself. Because of my new found confidence, I am wanting to show my feminine side to more people, especially those I already know.
My first experience in coming out to one of my friends happened last week. For their…

I did it! Janelle has finally left the confines of my bedroom (and the rest of the house when nobody else is home), and has stepped out in public!
I've been wanting to get out or start telling my friends about my dressing for a while now, but didn't really know how to go about doing either. My problem with telling my friends is that we only seem to see each other in group settings, and I would prefer to tell select people in a one-on-one setting instead. Aside from the group…

I'm so happy for you, I think its wonderful when someone getes to be the person they really want to be. It made me so happy to read your blog about going out for the first time. You took a big step and it sounds like it went great. I hope you are able to make more advances in becoming the woman you want to be.
