Working on a new story to be released, um, sometime. Along the way, working things out for various characters, suddenly it is obvious that I really am "TG", but not sexually attracted to anyone. THANK THE CREATOR !!!!!!!
That is a rather profound realization. Many years ago others told me what I was, and now I realize they did not know much if anything. This admission comes after having sex change surgery years ago and living as a woman.
It is strange that over the last few weeks some male clothes, pants and T shirts have appeared here just in case the political climate in the US forces stealth upon me.
How very odd.

Feminine Male
Perhaps the better description would have been just a very effeminate male. Don't confuse that with being Gay. Not a criticism of Gay folk. I was married to a woman for 38 years and enjoyed penetrative intercourse. One day my male junk just stopped working. She blamed herself. It was all down hill from there.
ONE good part of Gender Transition is not having to put up with male BS.
