This Week at GenderEvolve...

By -
Happy Friday Beautiful Ladies!
I have been most uplifted by the lovely emails that have been flowing among my GenderEvolve sisters this week. As most of the communication has taken place in our private domain at yahoo, I would like to give a public overview of the topics brewing behind the scenes, and invite my contributing sisters to post their material publicly, here on the GenderEvolve blogsite.

I am proud that my GenderEvolve sisters recognized and discussed the International Women's Day on March 8th. I believe that transwomen can and should celebrate womanhood, including treating themselves as women, aligning with other women, and developing solidarity in femininity. This means recognizing women's issues, supporting women's causes, pondering femininism, and seeking ways to make a better world for women. Continue to do this, and over time genwomen will begin to recognize transwomen in a whole new light... one of peace, sisterhood and unity.

I am delighted that one of our newest GE sisters, Sweet, a genetic female, took the initiative to send a letter to the United Nations requesting an International Transgender Day. She demonstrated willingness to take affirmative action for positive change, not just by talking about what "should" be done, but by taking tangible measures toward the goal. Sweet's letter will be posted on GenderEvolve, as an example of what we should all be doing. There is every good reason to have an International Transgender Day, and if we all start sending letters, our voices in unison grow ever stronger. We can change the world, yet it has to be done by a group working together, like us. Let's make it happen!

I am inspired that the other of our newest GE sisters, Monica, a beautiful young TS female, is a leading supporter of the Mexican Transsexual Movement (MTM). She contributed a powerful report on the status of the MTM, discussing the needed reforms to the Mexican health care system and social environment. Her report will be available to the public on GenderEvolve in the near future.

Another of our lovely GE sisters, Felicia, posted a fascinating article relating to the lifespan development and aging of transgendered people. She delved into the psychological motivations and needs of transwomen in regard to accelerated lifestages and maturity, and described her discussions with others trans and gen women on this topic. Felicia's article gives meaningful insights on issues relevant to the majority of transwomen, and will be posted publicly soon.

Please stay tuned, as these articles will be available in the near future on GenderEvolve.

Love & Light,

I congratulate myself, as part of the feminine gender, and every other woman in the world on the International Women´s Day (March 8th).

And at the same time, I´m showing my adherence to the cause of promoting an International TG Day, so we can be honored as truly gifted individuals that we are. As a matter of fact, we can publish a letter on our website, so every tg girl and our friends, lovers, and partners in the world can add their names to the petition to the United Nations.

I´m of the idea that if we are to face men dominance in this world, we must do it with our own values, the Word (understanding and communication) being a unique way to reach to others.

But our feminine values also encompasses life and energy nurturing forces, such as: love and compassion, creativity and spirituality, intuition and caring.

These are our best resources.

Felicidades girls!

My Son Wears My Clothes

“Mom can I go through your make-up drawers and take some stuff you’re not using anymore?” “Mom can I borrow some of your clothes?” “Mom does my hair look all right?” “Mom do you have any shoes that would fit me?” “Mom do these clothes look good together?” These are some of the questions I have been asked over the years from not my daughter, but my teenage son. When he was growing up I missed all the signs that my son could possibly be transgendered. Perhaps it’s because I am such an open person and always tried to encourage my kids to be who ever they wanted to be and to follow their dreams. I have never hid my trans friends from them. I wanted them to grow up accepting everyone and I believe I have accomplished that task. They thought nothing of coming home from school and finding me and a bunch of tgirls sitting in the living room gabbing. They were never embarrassed to invite their friends over were mine were there. Even when they were old enough to make choices for themselves, they

CD/TV/TS labelling

By -
(by Michele Angelique) There seems to be some controversy in the transgender community as to the usage and meaning of labels such as CD/TV/TS. I'm unsure how this labelling is beneficial, but I've seen many instances where it divides people and puts the community at odds with itself. While clothing and make-up do not make a woman, some men cross-dress as an outward expression of that which they admire most. What I truly appreciate are those men who strive to do credit to the feminine gender because they love women, whether manifested as occasional cross-dressing or by varying stages of gender transformation. A number of TS women have opined that cross-dressers don’t deserve to be called “she” because CDs are not on hormones or altering their physical body to become female. I disagree with this view because it is incredibly challenging to come out of the closet, even if simply in cross-dressing form. I would venture that it is not often a decision made lightly, and to do so a pe

Transgenderism is a Gift!

(by Michele Angelique) In rebuttal of the article "Receipt, Please?" by Helen Boyd, which criticizes use of the term "gender gifted", I wish to offer a differing perspective on the transgender phenomenon. I have a great deal of regard for Helen Boyd, and highly respect all that she has done and is continuing to do, for the transgender community. Yet in response to her view that transgenderism is an "insane state of affairs", her comparison of transgenderism to a disease like cancer, and point of "asking them to consider it a gift would more likely end up perverting the meaning of the word ‘gift’", I must respectfully object. Her perception that "transness, more often than not, is a kind of niggling annoyance (at least) when it’s ignored, or a major disruption, or, at worst, leads to straight-up tragedy. That’s not to say there aren’t positive things that can come out of transness for the transperson and the partner - of course there are. B
