When did you "become a woman? I know tg women that "knew" from an early age, and I know some others that sort of "discovered"themselves as they became sexual beings.

The reason that I am interested is that, even as a young man in puberty, I always fantasized about beautiful women who had dicks. This is before I even knew that such gorgeous creatures existed. I only became aware that there were beautiful TG women about five years ago, when I became a user of the internet.

I find it very interesting that somebody can have a sexual identity that, in their world, doesn't even exist. Did you have a support group? Did you have help as you began your transition? Or, as is often the case, was it a struggle for you?

(p.s. I am really just starting a conversation. Don't feel like you need to bare your soul to me or anything. )

Hi 'Jones' and everyone else, that is really a great question and I think, along with many of us, I 'knew' when I was very young (really at initial 'identity' rather than when I was older) and was very persistent in my assertions. I was also fortunate enough to start transition when I was younger too. Truth is, puberty is difficult for all of us and being a Tgirl certainly makes it no easier. I would also hope that the other girls would join in here as I would love to hear some of their responses as well.

Great topic! And, a good reply from Liza to get it started.

I also knew from an early age that there was something very feminine about me. I was always drawn to girly activities. I didn't relate well with the boys and knew there was something different. Fortunately, I have a great family who has always been supportive. My mother is my biggest supporter of all. I wish all t-girls could have that same understanding and support. The Internet was also a big help for me. I learned there was a whole transgender world that included shemales, drag queens, transsexuals, crossdressers and everything in between. I was able to explore my personal identity even more.

I grew up fairly comfortable with my feminine side. As I matured I became even more comfortable with my body and with my sexuality. I'm attracted to men, women and t-girls. I have few inhibitions. Life is pretty good within my own circles. Life outside my circles in the "real world" is a little more stressful because of some peoples' moral judgments, but I don't let that get me down.

I am what I am and that's all I can be.

Hugs n' Kisses,

Kristy

It's interesting.

I have exchanged posts with some folks on the internet, it seems like men who like transgendered women are still marginalized. For instance, I am a very "straight" guy. By this, I mean that I am athletic, virile, and attracted to beings that look, feel, and behave like gorgeous women.

However, my community of friends would never accept or understand my attraction to tgirls. The gay/queer community isn't very accepting either. Many gay men are NOT accepting of tgirls or their admirers. Also, if I go to a gay bar, I usually get physically pawed at by every guy in the bar.

Since there are no "transgendered" gathering spots where I live, that leaves the internet. Unfortunately, again MEN who admire, love, and fantasize about tgirls have little options. Many sites that are frequented by tgirls are very suspicious to have male admirers around, and most of the others are SIMPLY porn exchange. I guess that we are a bit left out.



I am sure that a great many men would flock to a site like this, if they knew it existed, and where they could have conversations like this with beautiful, intelligent, tgirls like Kristy and Liza.

Hey, I don't know if anyone of you heard of Dana International; A famous post-op transexual singer from Israel. She had/has excellent access for optimum female change, and looks great!

In fact, she got me interested in T-girls. I thought she looked great and I was surprised to hear later that she was a transexual, but I didn't care, she's great.

Dana is a very talented woman, she is very feminine and just gorgeous. She is a complete transexual lady, has had femininzation facial surgery, breast implants, and has had sexual reassignment surgery, and is of course on estrogen.

Perhaps Dana International is one of the most successful transexuals ever? came you name any others?

In South Korea, a transexual woman named Ha Ri-Su (I believe that is the right spelling of her name), is one of the most famous actresses in South Korea, and also a singer there. She is very popular, and she is just gorgeous, as feminine and beautiful as some of the most feminine and beautiful genetic women. You would never guess that she was once male. In fact she was such a lady that know one in the oublic there knew she was a transexual until she decided to go public and tell people that she was a transexual lady. It didn't hurt her popularity any, she is still very popular there in East Asia.

There is also a famous transexual woman in Japan who is the lead singer of a popular rock band there. She is also beautiful and has a femininzed alto voice.

A transexual woman recently won the Miss China contest, and was going to represent China in the Miss Unicers contest, until the Chinese government found out she was a transexual, and the government there being a dictatorship, decided they didn't want a transexual woman representing them in the Miss Universe contest, so another woman is going in her place.

The highest percentage of transexuals in the world are in East Asia. It is more accepted there than it is in some parts of the world. There is actually a shortage of women in East Asia due to the practice in some parts of East Asia of female fetuses being aborted because males are prefered by some parents in rural areas there (a very sick practice). Because in China they have the one child rule so some female fetuses are aborted, and because Thailand and Japan have become very liberal about transexuality (especially Bangkok Thailand, the transexual capital of the world), transexuality is the most common in East Asia.
The majority of the world's transexuals in fact are in that part of the world.
Some of those East Asian transexual women are gorgeous, they are so pretty and petite.
East Asia is famous for it's beautiful, feminine, petite genetic women, and has also become famous for it's beautiful "ladyboys", it's beautiful She-Males and transexual women. Not in all parts of East Asia, but in many parts, they are very progressive about transexual ladies.

There have been some relatively famous transexual ladies in western countries also, including one transexual lady, a very beautiful, feminine lady who had a woman's role in one of the James Bond films. It didn't state in the movie that she was a transexual, she was just a woman in the movie.
There have been others also.

Thailand, the land of beautiful genetic ladies AND beautiful transgendered women!
I have never been there. It would be intriguing AND enjoyable. Nice looking ladies (of both types), to meet there. I am sure of that!

I agree Ted, I've seen some very beautiful Tgirls from the Philipinnes, Thailand, etc. I've always thought oriental women were uniquely beautiful. Of course it's probably true that every culture has it's share of lovely Tgirls. xoxoxo Liza

Yes Liza, it isn't only Oriental culture that have beautiful T-ladies. Our Western society has some very beautiful T-ladies also.
We better have! lol!

Ladies, I certainly didn't mean to insinuate that transexual women in America and other western countries aren't beautiful!
Many of them are gorgeous!
You shemale ladies on the boards here are examples of that!
