Any comment?

It’s hard to tell sometimes TGF is working correctly so we depend on you to let us know when the gremlins have disconnected something. Regina let us know that she got a page of technical gobbledegook when she tried to posta comment on one of Ronnie’s posts and I alerted our tech lady Alaina so […]

If you look at crossdressing, I think you’ll find a number of secondary benefits. Oh, sure, we learn how to walk in heels, and we’re sympathetic towards women because we know how high heels can hurt. We know how to coordinate an outfit. (Well, some of us do.) Many of us have learned to not […]

Dina’s Digital Diner — FROM BOLIVIA TO SHORT-SHORTS

| Aug 15, 2007 | Reply

Our LadyLike columist Dina Amberle has filed another edition of her Digital Diner. In my last post, I had a short piece about a Bolivian beauty pageant for traditionally costumed women. In my search for additional information about the pageant–where the winner was disqualified for wearing un-traditional hair extensions–I came across an even stranger tidbit […]

When does Marci Bowers find time to perform surgery?

| Aug 11, 2007 | Reply

I mean, c’mon! Every time I see a documentary on transgenderism, she’s in it—her and Jameson Green. Granted, they’re both excellent speakers, and great ambassadors, but isn’t there anyone else out there willing to be interviewed? At this rate, the world is going to believe the transgender world consists of Jameson, Marci and whoever she’s […]

So, I’m gone for a week, and what happens? A judge rules on hormones for a prisoner, a TS sues a bar owner in Arizona over which bathroom to use, and women learn how hard it is to run in heels. And on top of all that, Tammy Faye dies. Sheesh. Get it all, and […]

Obit: Michel Serrault, Played Albin in 1979 La Cage, Has Passed Away

| Aug 1, 2007 | Reply

One of the first movies I ever saw that depicted a drag queen as a sympathetic character and not a crazy person was the original 1978 La Cage aux Folles. (It was released in the U.S. in 1979.) The fabulous Zaza was played by French film star Michel Serrault. Mr. Serrault had played the role […]

The World’s Fastest Friend of TG’s

| Jul 30, 2007 | Reply

We rented The World’s Fastest Indian over the weekend. The movie, that is. The original is either in a museum or a scrap heap by now, I’m sure. Anyhoo… T-girls are popping up everywhere it seems. When you least expect it, there will be an actor in drag. And this movie is no exception.

From my ears, to your hips.

Or something like that. It was just over three years ago that I got my ears pierced. Both of them. I did it at Be-All in Chicago, after meeting a friend who had both hers done. Since that time, I’ve had remarkably little reaction. In boy-world, I’m a pretty straight-laced, clean cut, conservative-appearing fellow, so […]

Get Your Swimsuit, Sister! It’s Pictorial Time!

A few weeks ago JoAnn remarked to me that we really should get a new pictorial up on the site. We’ve been busy of course but that’s no excuse for not putting up anything new since 2005. (And that one seems to have disappeared into the ozone.) So, since it’s summer I am hereby putting […]

Well, technically, TGF News isn’t shaking. But it does point you to what is going on in the world. This week: who’s wearing the bikini and handcuffs? Where do GOP candidates stand on TG discrimination? A woman is told to get out of the ladies’ room, and Latino men pay to flirt with t-girls in […]

Summer movies

| Jul 3, 2007 | Reply

I haven’t seen any of the big summer blockbusters. Other than seeing Johnny Depp in eyeliner, I haven’t cared for the first two Pirates movies. The fact that Peter Parker has a secret second wardrobe doesn’t really grab me this time around either. And I have to say I’m disappointed with another flick I haven’t […]
