TG History — “Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachthani?” TGs and The Bible
Those in our western world who are opposed to what they view as “alternative lifestyles” often use the Bible to point out the error of our ways to GLBTs. They often use Deuteronomy 22:18-21 when they condemn crossdressers to the fiery pits of Hell. Since we’re coming up on a really large Christian holiday this […]
A Jackie Beat Holiday Treat
Miss Jackie Beat is a traditional kinda girl and every year she loves to entertain over the holiday season. This year Miss Beat made a whirlwind tour of the country and has returned to her beloved Los Angeles headquarters to recuperate. Last year she did her holiday show in New York City and we offer […]
What’s Going On At TGForum?
You may have noticed a few glitches over the last week at TGForum. We moved the entire site, plus all the member websites, to a new server and there were some, shall we say, “issues” along the way. Some permissions were not copied over correctly and some members’ websites did not display their pages properly. […]
Monday Morning TGF Digest
Hello one and all. Get comfortable with your morning coffee, fuzzy slippers and Monday Edition of TGF. Before I provide a concise summary of the contents of today’s edition I have to ask for your help. Over the past week we have been moving the TGF to different servers and upgrading parts of our software. […]
Making Some Adjustments
As I said in the Monday Morning Digest things have been moving around on TGF and getting upgraded. One of the upgrades was to our blog software program and while I was messing about with it, learning its new features, I realized that I had made a mistake when I posted some fun articles earlier […]
Transvocalizers — Christmas Music
Christmas Music plus I was sort of wondering what could be done with this new Transvocalizers feature to keep in line with the holidays. Given the extent of our economic downturn (duress, even…), the gift of music is still a highly affordable way to celebrate the season, regardless of your personal beliefs. In our main […]
Phun with Photos
It was the day after Thanksgiving, and I was bored. Even though I had filled myself the day before, I was still feeling pretty thin. My mind wandered to some of my older clothing, and I remembered a Frederick’s of Hollywood corset that I had put aside, but couldn’t bear to toss. Would it fit […]
What? It’s Monday again?
Hey TGF members! It’s that time again — time for a new edition of the best darned TG mag on the Web. Before we leap into it this week I have to share a photo that I found in the New York Times. It’s from a slide show of footwear in Manhattan. Times staffer Bill […]
Transgender: a mental diagnosis, a physical condition, or normal variation?
Hi friends! It’s been a mixed bag weekend for me so far — I got some of my Christmas decorations out, which is always enjoyable, especially with some nice seasonal music for inspiration. On the other hand, I had a plumbing disaster which involved a substance looking like espresso pouring out of all my sinks […]
Personal Account: Downsizing: It Can Be Win, Win, Win
A few weeks ago I ran into a former TGF writer, Linda Jensen, at one of my TG parties in suburban Philly. She had stopped contributing to TGF a few years back and asked me if I needed submissions. Being the kind of girl I am I told her I always need submission. Then we […]
If this is Monday this has gotta be TGForum!
Can you believe it? It’s December already. Time flies when you’ve got your TGForum to read every week. What’s up this edition? This Week in Transgenderism has been lovingly assembled by Ronnie Rho and brings you stories featuring TGs from around the world. She’s got everything from the people protesting TG Mayor Stu Rasmussen being […]
Perpetual Change — Jennifer Leitham
New music just in time for the holidays is always a welcome treat. Jennifer Leitham’s new project, Left Coast Story, managed to get a fall release so as to be available now for your gift giving needs. Jennifer will also be appearing at Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola at Lincoln Center in New York City over […]
Book Review: Femmes of Power
A book review by Renee Knipe A few months back, Angela asked if I wanted to do a book review. “Sure, what’s the book,†I asked. “Femmes of Power,†she replied. Four months later, you finally get to see that review.
(Another) Super Hero For Us
A few months ago we reported on a film called Catalina that featured a crossdressing super hero as the title character. As far as we can determine the film has been completed but hasn’t found distribution so we’ll just have to wait to see it. In the meantime the website Funny or Die has scooped […]
We got yer Monday Edition right here!
Well my little dim sum, it’s another Monday and here, just like always, is the Monday Edition of TGForum. This week we wrap up the adventures of 14th century transman bad boy Catalina de Erauso. You’ll never guess how it ends. Another stabbing? Go ahead, read TG History and find out. This Week in Transgenderism […]
Change is Coming
I’ve been quite the busy little tranny for the last couple of weekends. And I’ve been stepping out of my comfort zone as well. But there is method to my madness. (Or so the mad always seem to claim.)
Monday Edition — hot off your monitor!
Welcome to the November 17, 2008 edition of TGForum! Today we bring you This Week In Transgenderism, as always, featuring news from down the block, up the street and around the world that features transgendered people. This week Ronnie Rho has given herself writer’s cramp, monitor eyeball and Google wrist while compiling a vast array […]
Perpetual Change — Vicki D’Salle
Vicki D’Salle is the type of artist who can expand her musical horizon without going too far afield from her chosen genre’. As a musician, she’s developed a repertoire based around a jazzy piano style, which also includes healthy doses of boogie and more melodic playing. Her set contains everything from standards to original material. […]
Making The Grade
In a recent post at my personal blog, I came up with a list of questions to illustrate the nagging doubts, worries, and fears that plagued me — and most transsexual women, as far as I can tell — prior to beginning my Real Life Experience. They are the sort of the thing my therapist […]
What’s the worst thing you can say to a crossdresser?
Or a transsexual. Or even a drag queen. And it’s definitely not something you’d want to use on an FtM. Chances are, you’ve already said it to a friend. And what’s ironic is that it’s meant in the most complimentary way.
Monday Means New Content! And a new day.
It’s the first post election Monday and Barack Obama has been our President Elect since November 4th. I can feel the change in the air. Or is that just humidity? While some believe that now the Federal government will take away our guns (they’ll never find my Derringer!) and that the national anthem will be […]
Checking in With Osbo’s Bridge Club: Who Needs Therapy?
Speaking from the perspective of a therapy client as well as a practitioner with almost 30 years of experience, my knee jerk response is to say that everybody needs therapy – that an unexamined life is, well, hardly worth living. However, I have come to see over time that not everybody shares my biases (duh!). […]
The Halloween Queen
Halloween night was a special event for our own Kalina Isato — she went out as her favorite female role model, and she has plenty of photo to share from her time spent at the Henry David Halloween Ball. Ever since I was a youth, I was always obsessed with the character of Wonder Woman […]
The Sarah Palin Costume Challenge Results
Back in October I issued the Sarah Palin Halloween Costume Challenge and the response in the weeks since then has been… underwhelming. Perhaps, despite her apparent popularity with certain elements of the populace and the massive amount of media attention she received, people just weren’t that into her. At the Halloween events I attended there […]
Theresa Part 31 by Hebe Dotson
ï¾ ï¾ The Story So Far: The insurance company has offered a settlement for Sandy’s death, enough for Jessica’s education…and Terri’s sexual reassignment surgery! More good luck: Terri has found a new friend — Christine Riordan, a trainee sales associate at the department store. Their friendship deepens as they learn more about each other. Chris is invited […]
Hello TGF! Monday Edition Ready
What a week! It’s been enough to wear a crossdresser down. First off there was Halloween and The Henry David Halloween Ball. It was Henry’s 40th so I had to go. For the first time in my history of attending the Ball I wore a commercially available costume and went as a fairy. (Fairy photo […]
