We never stop working here in the posh 57th floor offices of TGForum to bring you the finest in TG news and entertainment. That’s why even though it’s Labor Day and most people are throwing another shrimp on the barbie (or slipping a new outfit onto a Barbie doll) we are hard at work to bring you the new content as we do every Monday. The relentless pressure to get all the copy prepared before our deadline leaves us quite worn out. Fortunately our support staff are there with tea, Cosmos and chocolate. They do ease the burden by providing hand massage when our carpal tunnel starts acting up. We couldn’t do it without them!  Of course we couldn’t give them Labor Day off since we needed them to do all that burden easing. Thanks loyal TGF minions. Someday you’ll get your reward.

Speaking of our loyal minions, our fabulous content creators have also been hard at work coming up with the new content for us to edit and present. Joining us today is the always lovely and very talented Dina Amberle with her Dina’s Diner column. Today’s specials at the Diner include a bit on chest wrinkles, the bane of the large breasted; Dina’s commentary on Jennifer Finney Boylan’s August 12th op-ed in The New York Times; her thoughts on “pumping” and we’re not talking about filling up at your local gas station; and a whole lot more. Well, a bit more at least. It’s all waiting for you in Dina’s Diner.

Lexy Tranner — Weekend CD, the amusing and often laugh out loud funny creation of Kyra Kelly is with us today. Like all crossdressers sometimes Lexy finds herself drawn (well she is actually drawn) to the local department stores for bargains on lady’s attire. And sometimes she finds herself shopping in drab. Shopping for lady’s clothes while you’re wearing your boy clothes puts you at a disadvantage when dealing with the sales clerks. If you’re wearing a dress then they know right away that the dress you’re buying is for you. If you’re shopping as a guy they start making assumptions that it’s for your wife or girlfriend and start asking those questions, “Are you sure this is her size?” Things like that. How does Lexy handle shopping in drab? In typical Lexy Tranner manner, and you can find out by filling your shopping bag with the latest Lexy Tranner — Weekend CD.

And of course we start the new content with our weekly wrap up  of all the news from the week that just went by, a little thing we call The Week In Transgenderism. This week relentless (didn’t I use that word earlier?) searching of the Internet has revealed links to stories with TG content from all over the globe. We flash from Thailand to England. We jaunt from Rapid City, South Dakota to Wodonga, Australia. Along the way we meet the Fox News psychiatrist who doesn’t seem to believe gender dysphoria is real. We check out Lady Gaga dressed up as a dude (so butch) and we meet the top Tupperware seller in the country — a drag queen. All that and more is waiting for you in this edition of TWIT.

There’s all that new content coming online today and all of the old content from years gone by. Check it all out!
