Last week I was on a road trip in central Pennsylvania. Passing through the Harrisburg area I decided to stop at The Bon Ton store near the Capitol Mall and check out the bargains.(The Bon Ton is a department store chain in Pennsylvania.) I was traveling in stealth mode, muy macho. As I got out […]

There was an article on MSN.com on Tuesday about makeup for men, and how it’s catching on. (And believe it or not, the author seems to think men are buying and using mascara.)

Really, I’ve had it. I can’t live like this anymore. Some big changes have to be made. It started out small. A skirt here, a dress there. But now it’s out of hand! I’ve gotta get back into that closet and make some hard decisions.

Ah, the eyebrow. We can spend a lot of time working on our eyebrows, and we probably spend even more time worrying about them. But, what are they good for? Really…

When I look back on the past decades I can’t help but be amazed about the progress that has been made in the TG community. From back in the day when there was no actual TG community to the way things are now; The word transgender appears in newspapers, TG characters are on television, TGs […]

When I glanced at the date of this picture. Nearly two years ago. I had just moved to the Cincinnati area, and spent my day off with a friend taking some pictures with the city skyline in the background.

Self proclaimed “beaner” comedian Carlos Mencia has a show on Comedy Central. In the second season of his show he started to throw in some drag characters. Is it all in fun or is there a hidden side to Carlos… named Carlitta?

What is it about them that makes them so powerful? You know what I’m talking about. Put on a pair, and you’re instantly relaxed. They’re just fabric. Or are they?

I told Allison this weekend I’d be writing about the “Magical Power of Panties”. Allison? Oh, Allison Daniels. You know her. She’s one of the other writers here at TGForum. Anyway…

MSNBC.com had an article on cosmetics for men—and I don’t mean women’s cosmetics for transgendered men—in the April 19, 2007 edition. The article was written by Lauren Sherman. Her lead sentence began thusly: “Hey, men: Don’t be surprised if very soon your toiletry kit contains not only shaving cream, deodorant and toothpaste, but concealer, oil-absorbing […]

You’ve probably already seen the link in Allison’s blog, and read the newspaper story about the Cincinnati-area firefighter caught in a bikini in a city park. Or, maybe you saw it on the national news. And you’ve probably seen the other booking photos, graciously provided by a Cincinnati-area radio station. Yeah, this isn’t some random […]

Whenever this topic is brought up, there’s a host of t-girls who trot out the same arguments. Well, today, we tear up those arguments.

Perhaps the only other people capable of as much shameless self-promotion as Donald Trump are presidential candidates. In order to be the leader of the free world, a candidate must constantly remind the great unwashed of how smart, forward-thinking, and generally awesome they are. Sometime before he became a presidential candidate, Rudolph Giuliani did a […]

We often make mention of the GLBT community, but honestly, the “T”? I think it really ought to be dropped.

We stayed up late the other night to watch the new show, The Riches on FX. It’s a good program, but I probably wouldn’t have gone out of my way to watch had it not been for Eddie Izzard.

Op-Ed By Angela Gardner Ann Coulter, the White Witch of Narnia, Wicked Bitch of The West, and Republican pin up girl indirectly called presidential candidate John Edwards a faggot. It was done —indirectly—at the end of a speech she made to the American Conservative Union Political Action Conference last Friday (03/02/07). Coulter said she had […]

I’ve been crossdressing for a long time and you have too, in all likelihood. Maybe it’s time to find a new avenue for release—at least while we are in the comforts of home, apartment, or— judging by a lot of the photos I see—in a cheap motel room. I heard a commentator say before the […]

No outing. I promise. Well, no intentional outing anyway. Maybe accidental. (And to tell you the truth, I can’t even remember who it was I was going to out in the first place anyway.) But I do know that I don’t know why Jeffrey Carlson is not a household name in the TG community. You’re […]

What’s the deal with black, comic actors dressing up like fat ladies? In the past decade there have been several films that feature their male stars padding up (way up!) and slipping into drag. Yes, Flip Wilson started it all back in the day with his female character but she was slim and sexy. Great […]

Also unconfirmed – after five months – is the paternity of her young daughter. Today, none other than Zsa Zsa Gabor’s current […]

Some girls don’t. I was chatting with a friend of mine this morning, and she was trying to talk me into going out tonight. I’d love to, but it’s not in the budget. It’s an expensive hobby for me, considering at the very least, I like to wear false nails and they don’t come cheap. […]
