Recent Transgender Articles
One of the best things I ever did…
…besides getting married, was to get my ears pierced. It was at Be-All in Chicago 2 years ago. My friend Alicia had had hers done and was raving about it, and I guess I succumbed to peer-pressure. But, it was something I was thinking about anyway. Clip-ons were getting harder and harder to find. Good […]
Sex and the T-girl
Are there any crossdressing gals out there who have a steady, or at least regular relationship with a man? Even if it’s just for booty call, does it exist? Even on the down-low?I’m just being nosy. I can’t think of at anytime, hearing about such an arrangement. It must be the sex that trips people […]
The Transgender Flag
This is one of several versions of the transgender flag I’ve been able to find on the Internet. No offense to its creator, but, it doesn’t really say much about us as a group. I mean, blue and pink stands for boy and girl, as does the symbol in the left hand corner. But, it’s […]
I am not a good looking man…
And I’ll be the first to admit it. For the most part, women do not flirt with me. The number of women I’ve met in say, a bar, and later dated, I can count on one hand. (Please, keep the masturbation jokes to yourself.) My wife thinks I’m attractive, but when I look at pictures […]
Cop and Criminals
It’s been a busy time in the GLBT arena. In Washington, the “fundies” call for a vote on an amendment banning same-sex marriage. They lost, but you have to wonder about the timing: It is Pride month after all. In Houston, a TS has come out of the closet, and hopes to keep her job. […]
Sasquatch prepares for Pride…
With Cincinnati’s Pride Festival just a week away, I’m already getting ready. I used my adjustable clippers to trim down the hair on my arms. I haven’t decided what I’m wearing, but if it’s sleeveless, or at least short sleeved, I won’t be too hairy. My legs are posing a different problem.
New hope for FTM’s????
Over the years, I’ve had several good friends who were FTM.  And I hope for their sakes this new procedure will work for them:
No Prom for you.
Eighteen-year-old Kevin Logan says he is a homosexual who is exploring his sexual identity. He has dressed as a female while attending classes this year. Logan arrived last Friday for the prom wearing a fuchsia, slinky prom dress and heels but was not allowed inside. School officials say its school policy that males can’t wear […]
Window dressing to the soul
We’ve all heard the cliche about the eyes being window dressing for the soul. And the thing about cliches is, they’re often true. Else they wouldn’t have become cliche in the first place.Â
Idealism comes back and bites me in the ass.
I’ve been on this anti-photo kick lately. Simply put, I’ve left the camera at home the last few times I’ve gone out. And there are a lot of good reasons behind the decision: 1. It’s an expensive thing, and some day, someone at the bar is going to walk off with it. 2. It’s so […]
The missing link
If you’ve spent any amount of time online, in a chat room or with an instant messanger, you’ve probably encountered that mysterious creature known as an “admirer”. But what is an admirer, really?
Swimsuit Season
Spring has finally arrived in the Northern Hemisphere, and as the temperature climbs, the weight and amount of clothing we wear decreases. And unfortunately, all that stored-up winter fat is now on full display.
The Foundation
Honestly, I don’t feel all that comfortable revealing my makeup secrets to the world like this. But, it’s what the People want, and Ronnie Rho is all about the People.
Hey clothing designers! Hello?
Why is it, if it’s large enough to fit a fat chick comfortably, it’s ugly? I say this as a fat chick myself. Clothing for the “plus size woman” is almost always hideous.
I want my MTV
Yeah, I’ll admit it. I’m old enough to remember when MTV still showed videos. Good or bad, it was those same music videos that helped shape my fashion sense…
Whaddya want?
Over in the BBS section, there’s a poll question. (You may have to fight your way through some interesting ads for Chinese-made knives to get there.) But the question is:
The same old story…
Maybe you’ve already heard about Kitty Grey. Or Sabrina Trujillo. Maybe you haven’t. If you haven’t, it’s something you’ve heard before: A transgendered person who is incarcerated and wants SRS.
A bit of a quandry…
My friend Alicia wants me to go to Chicago this June to go to Be-All. The Mrs. and I went in 2004, and had a really, really good time. We hung out with Alicia and her SO, and met Helen Boyd, and the infamous Betty, along with a lot of people I had known online, […]
Good news from Cincy
The City Council approved a measure that adds gay, lesbian and transgender to the Human Rights Ordinance. A subcommittee took testimony on Tuesday before sending the bill to the full council. One of the first people to testify in favor of the measure?
Unity in the Queen City
Mark Twain once said, (paraphrased) “If the world ends, I want to be in Cincinnati, because they won’t hear about it for another 2 weeks.” Anti-discrimination laws are nothing really new in the United States, but we’re just now considering one in Cincinnati.
The old hidden ball trick…
Spring training has started. The boys of summer are back at it, and boys will be boys Except when they’re girls.
NYC TS on TV
I’ll admit it. When I saw her picture, I gasped. The television was on at work, and The Insider came on, featuring NYC transsexual Amanda Lepore. She’s had a wee bit of work. The sound was off, and everyone was hard at it, but someone glanced up, and saw her, and made comment along the […]
Laissez les bons temps rouler!
A most joyous Carnival to you and yours! Where-ever I’ve been, I have observed Mardi Gras ever since spending 2 weeks in the Big Easy in college. We were not there during the Fat Tuesday celebrations, but the city affected me so profoundly, that I’ve tried to keep a piece of it in my heart […]
