More Than Just a Flag

Ask Hannah!
I’m curious if you’ve ever felt any hostility from the trans community regarding your definition of transgender?

Now that's a fun title, isn't it? When we first start to come out to others, so begins a deluge of feelings, experiences, emotions, desires and dreams. We are no longer holding back our other selves, the years of secrets and loneliness. We are free. Well, more free than we were before. Of course, after … Continue reading Destroy Your Enemies, Not Your Allies
Ask Hannah!
Hello, I really love to know how I could be more femme. I am a very tall guy which I really hate. There's a zillion things you can do, and what makes one feel femme is different for everyone. For some nothing is more feminine than bright red nails, or a matching bra and panty … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
