I had to write a bit about where the father character came from in "Tight Money"

Actually, I see my own father in that role. Not that I ever had an experience with another cross-dresser at a young age, but his attitude was right there, without the experiences of Rikki's dad.

Actually I have another story that I'm posting today that is semi autobiographical. "Jamie Finds Acceptance" is based on characters in my childhood and my dad's reaction to being confronted with my cross-dressing. I got foolish, as a lot of cross-dressers do and dressed up in the clothes of a woman I baby-sat for and was outed when on of the kids saw me. She called my sister and she saw fit to out me to my dad. What she didn't know was that he had already caught me, but that's another story.

Of course, later in life, he was fully accepting of me when I was in my late thirties.
