GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

Red symbolizes defiance-the boldness to go against society's so-called norms
about gender.

Today is my seventh anniversary (month) of being a crossdresser. It has been a wonderful and interesting journey. It has been challenging for me, emotionally. Crossdressing is an important part of my life and has added another dimesion in my diverse life. Femininity has added color and personality to my life. I look forward to cotinuing the journey.

GENEVIEVE'S GEMS

Every gurl needs to have fun in her life.

Greetings once again! I have been reading and writing much. Writing about crossdressers and transgenders is challenging and enjoyable. The message I convey is that we do not have to be ashamed of who we are. I am writing a play featuring transgendered folks. I am writing it in a positive vein because we should feel good about ourselves. Perceptions are difficult to change, but we are people who have contributed much to the American landscape.
I have seen some beautiful outfits that I would love to purchase. I am fixated on red dresses and red suits. I have had a sense of fashion since my teen years. As a crossdresser, I believe that is important. I am a stickler for the right color combinations. Knowing how to coordinate my colors outweighs how much clothing I have.
It will be my seventh anniversary (month) of being a CD. I have grown and met some lovely people. I look forward to continuing the journey.

I GOT MY PANTIES ON!

I cannot wait until I get my wardrobe the way I would like.
I have settled on a red suit and a red dress. I have to purchase
a black, a must to my wardrobe. When I look in the mirror, I see
a lovely woman who wants to enjoy life.
I have begun to communicate with female to male crossdressers.
They are family and I would love to exchange our experiences. It would
be interesting.

Everything is good with me. I am writing a play which features transgendered people. I am writing a positive play portraying transgenders as people who just want to be treated like anybody else. I have an interest in playwrighting and screenwriting, so I am concentrating on it.

I have visited numerous bookstores and libraries, looking for books and magazines about transgendered men and women. There are some books and magazines, but not a lot. There are some fine books like "Transgender Warriors" and "Gender Outlaw" and "Transgender Tapestry" is a good magazine. There are some other good books, but there needs to be more publications by and about transgender people.
I am writing a play about a transvestite. It's not the coming of age story that is common, but I am trying to write about someone who enjoys his life and presents a positive insight about transgender people.
I think about our community much and all the potential that we possess. I would love to see many goals achieved this year. I love you like I love my own family. We ARE a family.

A Happy New Year to all. Reflecting on 2005, I discovered things about myself that were buried deep inside me. I have always known that there is more to me than I, or others, could have imagined. Every individual is. When I crossed over to another side of the gender spectrum, a whole new world opened up. I am on a long journey am I do not know when it will end. It is a trek that I am compelled to take.
I am looking forward to a great 2006.
