Are there any topics you would like to see covered in the wiki?

Feel free to list them here, but no promises!

i'm kinda suprised that there isn't a heading for depression in the wiki(unless i missed it). i know the subject is touched upon under other titles but depression is pretty common among the transgendered at some point in their lives.

Good index, give my employer a CB rating of 100, but I already knew that from the ground floor.

There's already a collection of movies.
It would be good to also have information on trans-related literature, art and music.

First, let me apologize for the poorly worded previous post. I hope no one was offended by my poor choice of words.

What I REALLY meant was articles anout dating between one transgendered person and a non-transgendered person.. Please  excuse that lame straight, heterosexual comment.. was posting in DUH mode I guess...

Please post more about spironolactone.

What are the methods of taking Spironolactone? I would more specifically like to know if it could be taken into the blood better through sublingual absorption after rinsing the mouth with a strong liquid like Listerine, or while doing cardiovascular exercise. Is it soluable with alcohol?

I was planning on crushing it, putting a few drops of either VERY hot water or strong liquor on it and keepign it in my mouth for my 20 minute morning cardio.  It all depends, I suppose, on whether or not it's alcohol soluable.

What about a topic covering coming out to wives and partners of transsexuals?

Most of the ones already listed are for parents and family, and don't really give any info for married couples apart from whether or not to tell them you are a cross dresser.

I know its a difficult subject to cover, and there is no easy way, but maybe some ideas of do's and dont's would help.

Thank you

Bobbie

Yes it is a difficult subject to cover as far as married folks coming out to their spouse but I'll have a look at it and see what we can come up with.

Hello Kalt.

It is not our policy to provide advice on how to take medications, doses, and what they should be taken with.  These topics are best discussed with your family doctor or other medical proffesional.  However, all the sites that discuss spiro state that this medication should only be taken with water.  As far as I know spiro is only available in tablet form.

A site you may want to look at is:

http://www.drugs.com/spironolactone.html

Just remember that everything that is discussed on these sites relates to the use of spiro to treat conditions other than those experienced by TS women, and remember much of what you seek is easily found on the web.
