Clothing - When Pre HRT dress to relax.

People that worry too much about dressing are crossdressers or ->-bleeped-<-s and should consider getting a second opinion about their so called gender issues

I do have to say that untill I am able to move to a new place, and am finacially on my way to transition in a job that I can keep while doing it, My house feels like the only place to "be myself" Though I never got into the whole dress up thing( simply reminds me of what I am not right now) I can relate to someone who gets something out of cute "house clothes". I am simply too self concious(sp?) to be myself anywhere else.

Darn! I go to the manicurist twice a month!  I enjoy nice, age-appropriate shoes , nice slacks, rayon and silk blouses, beautiful purses.  I do wear makeup when I go out to an special event.  Geez! l may have made a mistake with my SRS; I am so bummed right now, for perhaps I am not TS after all.

So pretty much every fad-chasing, style-obsessed genetic girl is a crossdresser or TV?

(eyes wife suspiciously - you should see her closet. The girl has like everything Newport News has to offer)

Funny though, last night my therapist was trying to encourage me to wear more feminine things, get earrings, (more) female glasses, skirts... if I want to push my passing luck that is.

And I just kept thinking, "but I don't WANNA!" She warned me that, "Oh you probably will, once you're out, most TSs kinda go crazy for awhile living through being a teenager for a couple years."

But I don't think so... I experimented a bit with super-femme stuff years ago, but it never really "took." I think I admire "cool" looks more than "sexy." Ya know, the right combo of jeans and a jacket, or pants and the perfect cardigan.

It kinda makes me worry a bit. I mean, not to sound like "Oh, I'm so super-TS because I don't care about sexy clothes" or anything, but I *dislike* skirts (on me). I *dislike* super-femme stuff. I *dislike* most jewelry (it's annoying). I'd rather NOT paint my nails. I hate pumps and heels. It kinda makes me wonder the OTHER way, like wait.. if I'm so "female inside," shouldn't I KINDA like these things?

And yet, I do hate super-male clothing. I just feel STUPID in it. And I love casual girl clothes that look good on me.

Oh well. I'm babbling now. I shall cease.

No, GG's are not ->-bleeped-<-s or crossdressers BECAUSE  Typically ->-bleeped-<-s and crossdressers are sexually aroused by wearing women's clothes or under garments.  ->-bleeped-<-s and crossdressers would never put on outer garments and cover up those red lace victoria secret specials and both will be found at your local 7-11 in their ball gown and 8" heels.  You're free to believe whatever you want; there's no shame to be a TV or a CD, but let's not confuse them with GG's.  Just my opinion, I don't intend to open a pro-tv, pro-gg, or pro-ts debate in these forums.
