Finding Tina

Post by Jacqueline Manesis »

For those who have read some of my other posts you learned how I started crossdressing and what intitially drew me. At first it was purely fetish and for the love of womens lingerie esp pantyhose and heels. Some of that still is there and I don't know if it ever will go away.

I write this to say that I was once at a place where I saw myself as other posters on this forum. I was very much a guy and still am when I am in boy drab mode.

As a guy I still enjoy the fetishism of the lingerie.

Here is what I found to be very interesting. After confirming there were others who crossdressed and I was not the only freak who did this. I contacted tri-ess as from what I read it was for guys like me. Guys who were strictly heterosexual males whoenjoyed wearing womens things.

I then got in touch with my local tri-es chapter and got invited to a meeting after a telephone interview. I felt safe in going and I was told most would be wearing the fem things they liked but we would be at a public place. Oh No! What am I going to wear?

I hit ebay quick. My wife (ex now) after seeing the dress and shoes and foam breasts etc decided she wanted to apply my make up, so I said what the hell. She just wanted to show me how to do it so when the day of the eeting came I could do it myself. I felt a little bit wierd but this is what happened.

After she applied my make up I then got fully dressed and stood in front of a full length mirror and looked at myself. Something happened. I was not feling the usual sexual urge from what I was wearing. I was looking at something different. Something that had a potential all its own. I looked at myself and did not see the crude male that I had grown to be ( perhaps in a subconcious repression of this newfound being?).

I never was a very vain male, typical caveman style Type A personality get in your face ex soldier. This new self became very critical of my appearance. I never paid this much attention to myself and to me I never looked this attractive.

I went to the meeting and I did not own a wig. One of the gurls there had a spare and asked me if I would like to try it on. My knees were trembling and as a male I dont scare easily. I went in the female bathroom and tried on the hair. This turned into a two hour process as I fell in love wiht myself while several of the girls attempted to give me the best DO possible considering the wig and my look. It was so much fun!

Something happened to me that day. That day I learned more about myself than all the years I spent home enjoying my fetish as a fetish. This new creature who I named Tina has different aspirations. Tina does not wish to be seen as a slut and has possibly better moral standards and expectations of my total self than my male part. Learning about Tina has made me a better person all around. I want to go to meetings and be regarded as a good role model. I want to be as much a lady as possible while being a girl. My focus is not on the sexual aspects on how this started but something deeper. Me falling in love with my own girl that lives inside me. Me falling in love with myself so much that I let my girl help my boy side become just a better person in the world he must live in as a boy. I never could imagine how this evolved. Its been quite an adventure so far. I look forward to growing more into the woman I want to be en femme as I know it will only further enhance the man I have already become.

Do any of you ever experience a sort of feelings of violation if when in drab you become excited as a male with a fetish does when trying to get to full fem mode or am I the only crazy one here? Its almost as if there are not two sides but three. There is some other sexual little demon in the middle of the genders.

I can sorta understand how you feel. Except that I have a fem side and a male side. And both of my sides have sexual fetishes or preferences. But I feel that they are part of me. Both sides. Not that each side has it's own sexual fetish.

i see you have added me to your yahoo. When we caht I will explain the rest in better terms.

Would I change it? No.... Spent to long fighting to get to this point. I would not change nor give it up.

Hi Tina--
Even when I was dressing in high school, I didn't really have a fetish for any particular piece of clothing--it was more the total experience of creating a "girl" that I was after. I think I can identify what you're talking about here, although I don't think I experience that "transition" self you're talking about.

It is odd that sometimes a more male part of "me" is watching what my femme self says and does. I try not to tease men, but at the same time, my "inner male" understands exactly why they react the way they do. It's a feeling of power, and it's hard not to misuse that sometimes.

Virginia took me through virtually the same epiphany. I related my experience here on the forum some time back. I was at a club, came out of the restroom and at the mirror as I looked at the woman looking back at me as I prepared to "fix my face!" Every cell, fiber, nerve, brain neuron all were screaming at the same time! "This is so RIGHT!" I wished for all my sisters that seek this epiphany that they find it. It was, without a doubt, the most earth-shattering experience of my life! AND I HAVE NEVER LOOKED BACK!!
You are so right and I hope you can continue your "Magical Mystery Tour" and watch and see how the woman in you can make YOU an overall better person! Virginia has changed my life and had I the choice I would not change a thing - well one! Only that she had appeared earlier in my life! but I guess I did not need her or she felt she was not needed until a certain crisis arose (that's another story).
One other thing - the MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR is oh so much more beautiful when you are blessed with someone who shares it with you!
(Love you, honey!!! - thanks for - Well, for everything!)
Tina, I hope you continue to grow in your new discovery!!!! Let yourself go and open yourself up to the wondrous feelings that you have yet to experience. This "GIFT" has dividends and rewards beyond your wildest dreams. Learn it, live it, love it, and most of all share it!
Keep the faith and my matra: "Go Forth Woman and BE!
Love,
Virginia
First star to the right, then straight on 'till mornin!

I posted some new pics on my Gallery today. It was a big step for me as this is the first time I was fully dressed with my SO. She took all the pictures. She was actually impressed by my make up. I guess she was expecting a MiMI from the Drew Carey show. Haha. Like I told her, in the beginning thats probably what it looked like, but I have quite a bit of experience playing with make up. ***()***
Nothing beats a great pair of Legg's. Cake and tea or death!
