God's cruel joke...

Jessica North · Post by **Jessica North** » Fri Aug 21, 2009 6:43 pm

I was reading through some of the posts here in the forum and came across one regarding back hair. It just made me think about my own situation and life in general.

I am 6' tall, 240 lbs, balding, covered in body hair, and oh yeah... a crossdresser. Sometimes it makes you think God has one heck of a sense of humor. I still don't really get the joke...

Life is funny huh?

Hugs,
Jessica

It's still a wondrous "Magical Mystery Tour."

We all have our "crosses to bear." I am what I call a NOTS! A non-Operate Transsexual, Oh and I am a world record holder in power lifting! Can't say I have to deal with back hair, but what hair I do deal with gets the razor a lot. Interestingly enough, I have only been questioned once about my "lack of hair" in the warm-up room and it was by a female powerlifter. My coach at the time - who is also a world champion DRUG FREE female who at 132 pounds bench presses over 300 and squats over 460 - she knows about Virginia, and anyway, she looked at me, then the qirl questioning my lack of body hair, and just said, "Things are not always as they appear!" and that was the end of the conversation.

Balance and love who you are!!!!

Jessica, God's sense of humour is something I have pondered for some time.

I believe he has attempted to make things up to us by inventing the digital camera.

Tough but fair!

Jessica,

I am very similar to you in height and weight, plus, I need to shave everywhere below my ears to stay hair free. It's just something that I do regularly. And yes, God has an extremely odd sense of humor. He made mankind, right?

I thought Al Gore invented it!

After re-reading my original post I think it came across with a little too much "poor me" feeling. Just so you all know, I consider myself to be gifted with my CDing. Additionally, I have a very understanding an beautiful wife, and two great kids (who don't and won't know about me). I wouldn't change a thing, I was just amused by the irony in my life.

First of all, let me say WOW to your being a world record holder in powerlifting. That is cool! But, since most bodybuilders shave their bodies, is it really that odd for a powerlifter to do it also?

True enough! There are many positives in this world that make up for the negatives! ...and digital cameras are pretty cool for special people like us!

I think that pretty much sums it all up!

Hugs girls,
Jessica

And half of what Mr. Miyagi said holds true here, "Wax off!"

Connie, some of us have hairy ears, too!

. . . and speaking of hairy ears, most males have way more nostril hair - and bushy eyebrows - than do GG's . . . and that's going to be a dead give-away.

GG's tend not to have a forest of hair up their noses, so don't ya'all forget to trim it back. The bushy eyebrows, well, I know that for most SO's they don't like it when their man alters his eyebrows, but if you do it gradually, and over a period of time, the change will be less noticeable!

Just trying to help out here!!

Ears - yup, been there, plucked that.

Nostrils - my 1-inch beard trimmer/clipper knocks those hairs back weekly
Eyebrows - waxed every few weeks and plucked every weekend

God gave women beautiful leg hair but for some reason both men and women in our society have rejected that gift and chosen to shave it off.

Since God made us in her own image, do you suppose She shaves her body hair?

Don't know why not . . . I shave daily, and that includes my face and arms.

I've yet to have anyone notice (not even family or close friends), and if anyone has noticed, I've never had anyone comment on it. Just goes to show you that most people are in their own little world, not paying all that much attention to 'you' in your world.

The only opinion which would matter to me is that of Virginia and her male alter ego, and that suits me just fine!

I am 5'10" 270 lbs, balding, hairy,...I dress to feel feminine,...not to look feminine. My co-workers all know about me. The girls at work accept me as another girl, which is just heavenly. We talk casually about girl things, share make-up, and so forth. They have given me many clothes. Most days at work, I wear make-up, panties, bra, perfume, and sometimes shoes. It feels great to be accepted. For them, I think I am something of a curiosity. These ladies have no problem changing clothes in front of me, even though I am sexually attracted to women. they do not think of me that way. To them,...I am just another girl,...but with a beard.

Speaking of eyebrow hair, I went to a trans (male to female) makeup artist who disguised my male eyebrows with a glue stick and powder. It was quite effective and allowed reshaping of the eyebrow and yet a quick wash with water returned my old maleness.

You can do a lot with make-up.

One principle about make up, you can add,...but you can not subtracts. The glue stick is a good idea, and is adding. The same is accomplished to make someone look like they are balding, by using soap in the hair.

It's been many years since my days in the theatre. I have a BA in theatre. I was a horrible actor. My specialty was make-up and special effects. I spent hundreds every semester on make-up, books, and other equipment. That was 25 years ago. I am very much out of practice. However, if I can help with any tips,....I would be glad to dust off the books.

I'm a MTF crossdresser. I regard myself as female and as such want to look as feminine as I possibly can, and this does not involve makeup applied over whiskers, a mono brow, or (heaven forbid!) stockings on hairy legs!
