The upside of being MTF (for me at least)

Yes it is easy to talk about all the crap, but life is never all just the crap.

Some positives connected to my being female, but in a male form.

Firepower. Nothing quite says safe feeling like being able to at least exploit the fact I have a powerful body. Maybe I'd like to be more delicate, but at least alone on a dark street at night I am NOT someone's idea of a vulnerable lady.

Tough guy limitations, nope, not my problem. I have no need to go around constantly proving how tough I am. But I like that it is fairly easy to growl and be able to do it convincingly :)

Accessories. I must admit, I LIKE having a purse eh. There's a limit to what you can put in a pocket. It's nice though that some of the men's clothing I am stuck wearing does have decent pockets.

I like though not needing to fret over being moody, irrational, over reactive, whiny, and in general emotional.
Of course I'm acting like a woman you moron :)

I like being able to at least exploit the better aspects of a lot of cliche stereotypes to my advantage. My male friends have to be all male and act all male and suffer if they don't like it all for the love of being 100% male as seen by their peers. I don't. They can incorrectly think of me as male if they must, not like I can force them otherwise. But at least I don't need to care to live up to their stereotypes.

I like being able to listen to my chic music and watch my chic flicks and not need to fret over crying at the sappy parts.
It makes it so much easier to watch my girlie anime.
Well being TG is no treat, but becoming separated has sure caused me more trouble that being TG ever will be. So if I post, consider it me trying to distract myself from being lonely, not my needing to discuss being TG. I don't want to be separated a lot more than not wanting to be male looking.

You can wear a purse as a man. Gregory gorgeous comes to mind.

Heheh you can wear ANYTHING as a man if you are 300 pounds of pure muscle and make a living as a bouncer too.

What person in their right mind is going to laugh at a person that makes a living dealing with trouble makers eh.

But the average male carrying an average purse, has just killed their ability to be invited to a range of sporting events and likely will not be invited to go hunting with the boys.

The above would not bother me. The less guys treat me like one of them, the happier I get :)

I am not interested in watching the Super Bowl or the Playoffs or whatever, but I do like being invited to Tupperware parties.

I have no desire to hang out with the guys, but I do tend to enjoy passing gossip with the girls. I'm glad my mom's Avon representative is able to understand the jewellery is for me when I order it :)

Man I wish I could get rid of the spare tire. I'm getting tired of not being able to try anything on when I go through clothing departments.
