Other bloggers

I've just been surfing other tranny blogs when I should be working, but then I work best when the deadline is up to my neck.

I've been inspired by several tranny sites including Beckys Tg Blog,TV Dreams and Karol Cross.

Karol makes me laugh as she does get into some unsual spots, maybe cos she's always clubbing. There is a serious side to it though when she shares her thought on her chosen lifestyle. One of her thoughts made me think about my acceptance of myself as I am.

It made me realise that I have always fought to hide my feminine traits and the only one who is suffering is me.

I've only recently accepted whole heartedly that I am a tranny and happy with it, but still hide it from nearly everyone. I don't feel guilty but I justify it by thinking that I am protecting my family. But if I try to hide it, then how can I expect so called normal ( i.e. non-transgendered) to accept the concept of being transgendered?

I think I must come out against any sexual prejudice even if it is e.g. only a snigger when gay characters mince in situation comedies. That may lead to my own gender being questioned and I will have to answer unambiguosly that sexuality should not be confused with gender.

It is only after accepting that I am happy to be a tranny that I can feel comfortable with being a man.IMHO I am a better person and a more rounded person ( no pun intended).

I would love to be in some of the situations Karol has mentioned where she has been mistaken for a woman. That has only happened to me once... and I was dressed in drab!

The other thing that has occurred to me is that, after accepting i am happy as a tranny, I opened up my mind and wondered if i was bisexual. If that means attracted to men sexually, then the answer is no. Then again I am attracted to people according to their characters irrespective of their sex, so I can be attracted aesthetically to men. Technically that would make me bisexual I suppose

What about fantasies ? I think that will have to be a new thread.

Thanks for mentioning my blog Julie, but unfortunately (for me) Blogger is buggered. Consequences are I'm buggered too. I have posts sitting in Blogger that won't publish (Java connection errors apparently). So until I install new blogging software I'm resorting to my trusty diary - good old low tech saves the day once again!

Unlike you, I hate deadlines that rapidly close in and 31/01 is going to be a bugger - that word again...

See you soon. :)
