I have been planning my transition out a bit this month and I realized at some stage in the next five months I will need to build up a new wardrobe (I never CD'ed- I used game avatar for that outlet) and dump a heap of my bulky guy clothes.

It struck me that a tguy in Sydney may be going the other way and might like to do a swap.  Things like leather jackets, t-shirts, winter jackets, shirts, ties, socks etc.

But then I remembered my guy friends found the concept of borrowing another persons clothes weird (even washed) and something chicks would do.  Lol.   ;D

Well it won't be for a few months, but worth raising the idea.   Mainly 2XL.  Comparable to size 18 -20 female (according to target)- I guess I will be 16 (14 with any luck) by then.  Could be fun.




Body... meet brain.  Now follow her lead and there will be no more trouble, you dig?

Now swapping junk that would be useful, otoh, unfortunately not medically possible at this time. :)
But meanwhile swapping clothes sounds fun, though I'm way way small.

Ain't that the truth.  It's heart wrenching when I read ftm posts and here I am glad to trade that in a heartbeat.  Maybe in the future 'junk yard' will mean something totally more handy!

They have a  few websites for something like that. I would love to do something like this, I unfortunately have gotten rid of just about everything except this vintage dress along with a petticoat I really didn't want to give away to a stranger. I'd be so happy to give away to someone on susans: it fits a 18-20. I'm in the US so the international shipping isn't something I can do, but it'd be super rad.

A garage sale would be super rad too because there's lots of crafting things I can swap or give away to artists in need.

Imagine the ads?

"For trade - one second hand vagina (one size fits all), mint condition 1976 model.  One careful owner, original tags."

Sigh.  If only, lads.  If only.

Radpants you found those sites campanella- I didn't know it was a thing already- so cool.  (Mind you, I do find it kinda amusing that I read that url as "trans clothe sex change."  Guess somethings on my mind.  ; p

Thats a wonderful idea, I have a pile of male clothes that I am still getting rid of in Atlanta.  They have been going to Goodwill, and now I need to make a trip to Lost and Found.  They help trans youth.

Ohh for the organ swap, yea count me in, that would be a wonderful dream.

LOL! I think once they figure out how to do that scientifically, they should hire your as their marketer. That ad made me laugh.   :laugh:

I suspect it will be stem cell research that will let us grow our own.
