The simpsons - groundskeeper willie plays a hooters girl

The episode was about proving one of the female scientists of springfield who was put into a mental hospital for being too smart for a girl, and how she invented something that would prove to the world that women can be smart, so Lisa convinces willie to dig up an artifact in the basement of a parody hooters restaurant.  It ends up being a quilting loom that solves math problems.

changing into a girl journal

Every fantasy always describes how the body changes, how they're feeling, etc.  One thing I don't think that has really been explored is handwriting.  We don't think about this much because often this can be fairly androgynous.  I remember in school there was one girl that had super feminine handwriting.  So much so that she'd often use pink or purple ink even though the teachers insisted on using black or blue ink.  So I thought what if someone kept a journal and talked about how they're freaking out, but at the same time their handwriting begins to change?

Adele - SNL calms down thanksgiving guests

This was quite an enjoyable skit.  It's making the joke that everyone loves Adele, and it's all you need to calm a family down talking about hot issue topics.  But they go one further and slowly transform everyone at the table into Adele in her Hello video, even the guys.

TED talk: drag

I have to give (S)heplacements for posting this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbeovM4RCh4

Ted talks in general are wonderful to listen to.  A nice short 10-20 minute speech that's very well written, and can be a topic about almost anything (but is always inciteful).  It's mostly about how we all dress up as people we aren't really (but are trying to impress others).  Also talks about how those of us in the closet are really living a lie.  To some degree I agree with that, but the desires vary greatly.  There is always a risk / reward to all choices in life.  She's really brave at the end, taking off her dress, wig, and makeup on stage.

I also found this gem:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzj1BTdfoeI

It's similar thinking, but focusing on making drag more fluent and more normal.  Specifically, it talks about an event in the UK called "sink in the pink" which is a party for the LGBT group, but it also tries to mix in non LGBT people to get those that are on the fence to cross over (even helping some of them to dress up in drag if they desire).

SNL - transgender rights bathroom

TG news break

So you've probably seen this story float around.  Boy with 2 dads dresses up as Cruella De Vil.  Of course some are saying this is wrong, while others completely support it.  I say if a kid is having fun dressing up as a "character", what does it matter what gender it is.  Heck, go visit any comicon and see how many gender bending people attend that.
http://instinctmagazine.com/post/dad-defends-sons-cruella-de-vil-costume-against-small-minded-bigots

 

And then we have this story that hits very close to home.  So I guess a transgender high school student wants to use the female bathrooms, fine no problem.  Then she wants to shower in the girl's gym locker room, understandable.  They setup a curtain for her, and that isn't good enough, and I see both sides to this.  I see her point, not wanting the attention of "oh look, the transgender girl gets her own private shower", and then I see the side of the other female students not wanting to shower with a "technically by genitals" boy, even though there probably aren't much of male genitalia left if she's been on hormones a while.  If there's any concern about sex going on, how is that any different than a lesbian girl showering with the other girls?  Quite frankly, I found the whole "shower naked with other students" in high school to be disturbing and shocking.  I think all showers should be walled off so each student can shower privately.  The idea of group showers and being treated no better than prisoners is quite frankly stupid.  I had weight issues, a tiny penis, and felt extremely uncomfortable showering.  Almost as bad was swimming class because it meant wearing extremely small bathing pants, and I found myself sitting with my arms crossed to cover my fat boy tits.

youtubable gender pranks

So I stumbled on this youtube channel today.  He's got a lot of videos on call of duty where he pretends to be a girl, even teasing the guys sexually.  I don't really like this sort of prank, especially when they accuse the guy they just teased of being a homo for being tricked into thinking he was a girl.  He does however do some chat roulette videos where he gets positive reactions, and he isn't mean about it when he reveals he's really a guy.  This is one of the more recent ones:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKu977mOTgo

Then he also does this video where he starts off as a guy, then pretends he's really a girl transitioning into a guy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8dItGvNuzA

More than anything, I guess I just love to hear how well some people can bend the gender of their voice.  This guy can do it very fluidly, like mid sentence.

Caitlyn Jenner could face misdemeanor manslaughter charges

The case is still open, and apparently now she could be charged (even though it's been reduced to misdemeanor level based on how the accident played out).  In case you're wondering what the California law is on that, it has a maximum of 1 year sentence (but with a good lawyer, I suppose it could get pleaded down to community service or possibly an ankle braclet for house arrest).  I hope for her sake (since she hasn't officially had the surgery) that she doesn't end up in jail.

A female impersonator.. impersonator?

So I was a huge movie buff in the 80's.  VHS was new, ma and pa video rentals were on every corner.  There's an obscure movie with Jim Belushi and John Ritter.  It's sort of cheesy, doesn't have a very high IMDB rating, but it's entertaining for what it's worth.  There's one scene where Jim visits his parents, and his dad is a "transexual", which at the time wasn't widely talked.  As a kid, this shocked me a little, and of course one of the many things that got the gears turning (so if you're a guy, you can become a woman?)  Well, for whatever reason I decided to look this movie up.  Turns out the transexual is actually a woman playing a man being a woman.  Her name is Dyanne Thorne, and she was in a few movies before this one.  Sort of disappointing actually thinking this whole time it was a real transexual (they either dubbed the voice, or she did a really good job of impersonating).

Here's a clip of the scene:

transgender surgery at 18

I found this short video interesting (someone I follow on twitter linked to it that I can't remember).  The one thing I found interesting was the comment about photos.  When she transitioned, they took down all the photos because it was a different person.  As an adult I don't see this as being a big deal, you sort of re-invent yourself.  As a teenager who has photos with their family (and still live under someone else's roof), it has to be hard.  Makes me wonder if they'd be open to photoshopping the memories rather than simply dismissing them.

Caitlyn Jenner

I know I'm not the first to post about this, and I probably won't be the last.  So when I saw the photos from the vanity fair magazine shoot show up in the news feeds today, my first reaction was "Holy shit, bruce is HOT!".  I really wasn't expecting him to look that great.  Of course 10 hours of feminization surgery can work wonders (just look at how young Joan rivers looked at 87).  Still, I had visions that he'd end up looking like an aged woman, just look at this posting from last December before he came out:
http://tgfictionmania.blogspot.com/2014/12/bruce-jenner-only-matter-of-time.html

 It truly feels like the world changed today.  I feel like Caitlyn is going to change people's views on transgender.  Not only through his courage, but by showing the world that even a celebrity that has options has a hard time coming out (for 3 decades) because of the negativity the world has on it.

First Period!

Ok so I follow elvira on twitter, and she posted a link to this page for a new movie
http://www.theblot.com/sweet-campy-first-period-redefines-gay-cinema-7741564

Elvira (cassandra peterson) plays the mom, and it seems to be a movie about a couple girls in high school (played by guys, but they aren't supposed to be playing drag).  It also seems to be set in the 80's which is also a plus, and it even stars Judy Tenuta!  If it were any more campy, you'd need bug spray.

adele dresses up as george michael..

For her birthday?  like seriously, not a costume party, not halloween.  She idolizes George Michael, so for her birthday she dresses up as him (and convincingly).

 

I think that is so cool, even if it is F2M.  I mean imagine if other celebrities did that for their birthday?  What if Justin Timberlake misses Britney spears and decided to dress up as her?

 

VR porn = $7

Ok, so VR is taking off early next year.  Oculus rift has been dragging it's feet, but we've had the android google cardboard solution for a while.  You can ride a roller coaster, explore a virtual world, and lately the porn industry has decided to not only support Oculus, but Samsung gear (hard version of google cardboard), and google cardboard.

Seems the biggest player in the market is "virtual real porn", and they even have short minute trailers for you to download on their site (MP4 format so your phone will need to convert to WMV).  Being that it's 3d, there is no way for me to convey how it looks or feels, but it's pretty darn cool stuff.  Nice thing about this site, they have at least 6 trailers of women getting pleasured, so it's the ultimate female POV experience.  This one is my favorite:
http://virtualrealporn.com/2014/10/01/feel-like-woman-pov-squirt-binaural-sound

It starts out as a office woman sitting in a room, and then is suddenly taken care of by a guy.  Because of the 3d effect, I can see my breasts sticking out, I can see my heels sticking up in the air, when she squirts you can see the depth of the liquid in the air. Once things like oculus take off (where you have a comfortable headset and potentially input rather than just being an observer), I can see how VR porn is going to take off in a big way next year.

admired woman - Tess Holliday

Unless you've been hiding under a rock the past couple days, you've no doubt heard about the plus size model (26, US 22) named Tess Holliday.  I've seen her photo a few months ago (I follow a BBW twitter feed) and I think she's just absolutely gorgeous.  So much in fact, I don't even see fat.  I also happen to like the "pinup" look, and tattoos (when they're done right).

I bring this up because so many of us who crossdress think it's futile because we're a few extra pounds.  If this lady can pull it off, I'm sure most of us can too.
She's also sponsored by a clothing line named "yoursclothes" which seems to care about how plus size clothing fits (many don't, particularly stores like lane bryant).  Prices I'm seeing are fairly reasonable considering, certain compares to lane bryant but without the grandma style/prints.

If you compare her non-makeup face to a very made-up face, it's easy to see how important a good makeup job is.

 

wig.. unboxing?

Is that a thing?  I know people do it for electronics.  So I ordered a $50 wig from voguewigs.com, it was this one in color P4-27-30

http://www.voguewigs.com/layla-lace-front-wig-vivica-fox.html

So one thing that most people comment when they review wigs is that they all end up much darker than the photo showed.   I thought about getting one in black with some highlights, but even in videos I can tell you can't even see the highlights.  So I went with the color above (which appears very light), and thankfully I did because it is darker (but just the right darkness).  I think lighter hair tends to attract attention.  I want pretty hair, but I still want to blend in.  If I wanted to stand out, I'd buy a purple wig.

So 3 things nice about this wig:

1. It's sythetic, but looks very natural and has great curls

2. It's snug, but has room.  I think this one has a much better made cap that stretches better.

3. It has a lace front so the hairline looks natural.  I've never had this on a wig, the closest thing I have is a wig with a built in headband (but I look like I'm a teenager wearing it).  I'm not sure why these aren't trimmed from the factory, perhaps it's too costly?  Maybe you're supposed to adjust according to your head?  Every video I've watched simply says trim as close to the hair as you can without cutting into it.

Here's the lace I trimmed away.  You can see the hair goes right to the edge:

 It has these nice built in hair pins that seem to keep it in place better than the cheapy wigs:

 Here's how it looks from the front

 And here's what it looks like from the top

 Shipping is pretty quick, and the turnaround time is only a few days.  They usually have coupons for free shipping as well.

Stream - Kill the faggot video game :-0

So this has been floating around since yesterday, even Jack Molay tweeted about it today.  So apparently there's some guy that makes christian footware, and hates the LGBT community so much he thought it would be a good idea to pay his $100 to Steam to get his game greenlit because in his eyes, good or bad, any attention is good.  Now I have to preface this by saying one of the many reasons I switched from apple to android is because it's unrestricted.  With that said, I think even Steam should have SOME sort of filtering in it's company, even if you have a gametester making $8/hour that plays each submission for 5 minutes.  This game clearly should not have ever been put on the server.  Now with that said, I'm not mad at Steam.  I mean if this guy really wanted attention, all he'd have to do is embed a flash version of this game on his website and drive all the traffic he could ever want.

http://wonkette.com/584711/nice-christian-makes-video-game-to-kill-the-faggot-like-jesus-would


This is just another example of why hardcore christians are so evil.  How dare you judge anyone, much less decide who should live or die (isn't that going against your very belief, only god shall decide the fate of man?)  It's not that different from listening to former childhood star kirk cameron talk about his beliefs.
