2018 Update (with a few changes in 2022):
I am a Proud Member of the Vanity Club! Christy Avery VC 656. Check out our new public website: www.vanityclub.org/
I am very selective, my Flickr contacts are limited to my tg sisters and cis-women. I block girls who present pics that are porn, bondage, and/or who have favorites of others exhibiting porn and bondage. Also, I block men, I am not attracted to men. Please don't take it personally if I block you.
It feels so wonderful to be in touch with my feminine side. I love to dress and shop at a few favorite stores, I enjoy meeting friends and making new friends at a local TG friendly club and with a transgender support group and LGBTQ+ elders of SAGE. And of course, I am on Flickr since I love to share my pics of myself when I achieve the look I want. I am blessed to have many Flickr-girlfriends with similar tastes, across the range of the transgender community.
I am consider myself as dual-gender; also per APA definitions bi-gender. I enjoy my male life as well as my feminine side. Throughout my life I wondered how I it would feel and how well would I present as a woman, there was only one opportunity I would risk presenting as a girl. That time was for a Halloween party with a borrowed wig and dress from a coworker. During most of my life being transgender was considered a mental illness, and other than that one Halloween I feared if I acted upon my desire to cross dress publically it could lead to the end my career and make re-employment anywhere else difficult. So I did not accumulate many clothes and other items to present as a woman, I was a closeted cross dresser since age 5. After I survived cancer 15 years ago, with a new lease on life, I began to address my desire to dress, and I began to purchase the wardrobe, wigs, etc. and venture out in public. One big help was a 2010 change in the policy the federal government had regarding the LGBT issues.
Hugs, Christy
