TOP TEN CLUES YOUR A TG. (TransGender)

PART ONE

To misquote a famous comedian "You Might Be A TransGender"...IF..

(#1) You have an overwhelming desire to wear clothes of the opposite sex at a very young age..It comes and go's in waves.. but never goes away. Same desire, year after year!

(#2) Sexual arousal always occurs during cross dressing for a variey of reasons, whether you act upon it or not usually dictates if your a CrossDresser... or a TG. A true TG feels comfortable and satisfied with themselves resembling a female/ or male without the need to masturbate.

(#3) Most male TG's take on very masculine orientated careers.. policeman.. fireman.. military..bricklayer..they try to outrun it... but they never can. It only gets worse with age.

(#4) You will find yourself being the "class clown",the "life of the party".. you live to make others around you laugh.. this is so others around you, can't see that you are really crying inside. Being a "clown" helps to hide the pain and shame of being a TG.

(#5) Most TG worry too much about what "everyone will think". To the sad extent that close to half of TG end up in a pine box rather then face the world as who they should have been born. Being a TG means your life expectency has suddenly been cut in half living in NORTH AMERICA... either you do it yourself or someone violently does it you... because they don't, won't or just plain can't accept who you are. Who you really are!! Pretty sad don't ya think.

PART TWO

(#6) The day you stop caring about what other people "think" is the day you finally realize your a TG.

(#7) Shows like MAURY..Sally Jessy...(remember her)..Etc..That showcase beautiful
transexual women from all over the world...You never miss an episode..You have to watch.. But..In the end..You only end up in a fit of rage and jealousy because these "guys" are living their lives that you can only dream of.

(#8) Your become addicted to your "hormones"...Your body needs it so badly...You feel complete...You feel happy...Not high...I call it the "Tail wag syndrome"...Your a happy puppy. When you realize you can't give them up...Again...Your a TG.

(#9) If your willing to give up your marriage and access to your kids.. Loose your job over this...Get laughed at or run the risk of everyone around you losing respect for you...If your still willing to do this because it "feels right".. Big surprise.. Your a TG.

(#10) When your having "intimate relations" and you feel like you are never satisfied.. "Ripped off" ... "Hosed".. Etc...Because you feel like your in the wrong body.. YOU GUESSED IT........Welcome to world of becoming a TG.

In the "system", I'm considered one of the "lucky one's... I'm not the norm...I pass with flying colors ...I have tons of support... ya da ya da ya...But yet,I still find this unbelievably difficult and emotionally draining. I have the utmost respect and admiration for those who do make up the vast majority of those who Don't pass so well. I am humbled by your strength and determination.

I don't watch DR.Phil, the man is getting rich dishing out COMMON SENSE plain and simple, Something the world has seem to run out of. Every "shrink" I have been to has sent me home packing saying . "You don't NEED us" .

I was just an average "guy' born in a average city... Born with a birth defect.. My brain is not male.. It is female and it took me half a lifetime to finally realize and accept this. I have lived (#1) thru (#10) and many more in my life... Nobody wants to be like "this".. IT IS YOUR WORSE NIGHTMARE GROWING UP.. Because you don't understand and most like myself fight it.

The good thing is.. Acceptance towards TG's is growing rapidly. For myself.. Being open and honest is the best way to go.. You never did anything wrong.. So stop sneaking around feeling embarrassed. I'm going to do my part in spreading awareness and educate those who don't understand.

The more the world talks about it and accepts it...Future generations born with "this" will seek treatment instead of a fatal way out.
