Another Sex Dispute, but This Athlete Has Four Legs

Submitted by on

I thought someone might be interested in this article about a non-human intersexed athlete:

I wonder if most species of mammals have about the same incidence of intersex conditions?

Having internet connection problems

Submitted by on

I can't access the internet via my broadband connection and am waiting for the techies to contact me in the next day or so. My posting of stuff may thus be delayed as I'm using my dongle and netbook computer. This is slow and it loses the signal when it feels like it, losing me whatever I was doing.

The good news is that we have found a house to rent.

I looked at a bungalow last week and it was right on the main Shaftesbury to Salisbury road and was painted magnolia - which looked grubby before we'd even started. The outhouses turned out to be worse than useless and she wouldn't let us put in a cat flap for Sammo.

My sister is starting Basic Training

Submitted by on

I just wanted everyone to know my sister (she adopted me when I started to transition) is going to the Army Basic training Tuesday, and while I am terribly proud of her, I am scared and sad at the same time. I have my many ups and downs as we are very close and we have been inseparable for 6 or 7 months. I am amazed at the openness and acceptance of this younger generation. I have received so much support from so many 20-30 year olds, and while females are more quickly to accept me, many 25 - 35 year old men have defended me when others were verbally tearing me down.

Lawrence becomes one of the girls, and perhaps the prettiest of the group, but still faces the disapproval of his father.
Lawrence's beauty grows and attracts attention, but he's still a boy.

Access Blocked

Submitted by on

Hello Everyone,
This morning I was shocked to learn that I was blocked from accessing this site, as well as Fictionmania, Crystal's Story Site and Sapphire's Place. The notice I was shown stated that bigclosetr.us was banned from this network because it had been classified as having nudity, pornography and sexually explicit material.
Excuse me, but I missed the announcement that the first amendment had been repealed!
Has anyone else experienced this? Is readership down because of it?

Perspective

Submitted by on

I posted a response to a comment for my story, Providence - My Treasure, My Little Sister. It is not my intent to preach or persuade anyone to change their own point of view. You folks are too precious to me, and I only mean to express my heart and the perspective and world view of my stories. After posting, I thought about my response to the young lady who wrote the comment. I wanted to encourage her, and certainly anyone else who has read the story and my other work, but I do not want to insult or offend. Please forgive me if I have offended you in any way. You are all so dear to me.

Comment at a time story

Submitted by on

This idea will probably crash and burn, but you never know...

OK, the premise is simple: read this, read any comments below, then add a comment (somewhere between a clause and a paragraph in length) to continue the story. The characters and plot etc. are all made up as we go along - just don't reply to yourself (and if by some miracle it gets popular, wait for two comments after your latest addition before adding more) :)

The essence of a Woman

Submitted by on

The link below is about several women who were given AIDS by the same man; an action I find despicable, but that is not why I posted this. I had a brief glimpse into the heart and soul of a woman while watching what they had to say in the youtube interview. Listen carefully to each of their statements and it will make you a better writer. There are certain things that a woman will seldom say to a man, and I doubt that they say these things much to other women. There are certain things that a girl just won't confide to others.

Where Have All the Flowers Gone?

Mary Travers, of Peter, Paul and Mary, passed away on Wednesday after a long battle with leukemia. Bob Dylan wrote 'Blowin' in the Wind', but it was Mary's powerful voice accompanied by the harmonies of Peter and Paul that made it an anthem for a generation. She will be missed.

“Two weeks.” Erika commented.

Mrs. Martin took a deep breath. “I hate it as much as you do.”

Erika sipped at her coffee. The two of them sat in silence both missing the man that they loved.

This is a GREAT story by Randalynn

Submitted by on

I first read No Obligation about 13 months ago or so. I just re-read it again these last couple of nights. This story sucks the reader in and grabs hold of you and doesn't let you go until you are done with it. It's the multifaceted fantasy of an epic character who starts out male and ends up as a young female Wyatt Earp for the universe.

Wonderfully written, no weak parts to it, and shows the power of love and compassion.

busy cooking day

made 5 quarts and 1 pint of apple sauce, 4 pints of apple butter, split pea and ham soup as well as potato soup yesterday.

It was my first time making apple sauce. I didn't realize how many apples it takes to make. To think that my mother would make 10 - 20 times as much and can it every other summer. whew.

Now to see if I can get any writing done. ;)

Easy Strawberry Cheesecake

Submitted by on

Here's my mix'n'match cheesecake recipe (i.e. it's a combination of parts of several alternative recipes).
OK, it's not strictly summer any more, but I'm sure I've seen some still on sale (unfortunately grown in sunnier climates than here in the UK!), and we do get the occasional warm spell in Autumn!

Tomorrow is the BIG DAY!

Submitted by on

Tomorrow morning, at 5 AM, I set off for Columbia S. Carolina to meet Grover and her wife, Paula. I'll stay with them through Sunday night. Monday, Grover and I will set off for Atlanta Georgia and the biggest TG conference/convention in the world, Southern Comfort! I'm really looking forward to this trip, and to meeting people I've only talked with on skype, or in chat rooms. Holly, Ariel, hopefully Gwen, Scotty Bishop, and who knows who else will be there.

Intersexed Fish?

Here is a link to an article on Feminized Fish. The male fish are now producing eggs and showing secondary female sex chacteristics. They say this is from birth control bills and hormone treatments being dumped in the water.
