It feels inappropriate and disrespectful trying to maintain any semblance of real life here in Minneapolis. This is a website focusing on celebrating gender identity and my perspectives as a t-girl. Much of who we are is shaped by our environment and what our experiences are like in the real world. For almost all of … Continue reading Your Unhinged Comments

Saturday Night with the Sassy Squad
I love art and I love wandering around renovated warehouses and I love wearing heels and I love wearing skirts so when I get to experience all of these things at once I am beyond happy. Last Saturday was such a moment. The MN T-Girls kicked off another year of adventures last Saturday with a visit … Continue reading Saturday Night with the Sassy Squad
Ghouls
Friday's post was a reaction to a pathetic man killing a woman and then calling her a fucking bitch. Obviously there's a lot going on in the hearts and heads of people around the world as a reaction to this and similar killings, and I was simply overwhelmed with emotion and thoughts after it happened. … Continue reading Ghouls
It Won’t Take Long
They said some men would be warriorsAnd some men would be kingsAnd some men would be owners of landAnd other man-made thingsAnd false love as the eternal flameWould move some to think in ringsAnd gold would be our powerAnd other foolish things But you who dream of libertyMust not yourselves be fooledBefore you get to … Continue reading It Won’t Take Long
It’s Beginning to Look Glamorous
The telltale signs of the approaching end of year holidays include a drop in productivity at work, discounted prices on televisions, and the annual MN T-Girls holiday party.

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Grinchmas

For the third year in a row (that counts as a tradition, right?), I was invited to see a production of this wonderful and charming show. Although the musical has made a few small changes … Continue reading It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Grinchmas

Grinkie T-Girl
Hi! Last Saturday I visited Grinkie Photograpy for my third photo shoot with the incredibly talented and charasmatic Christi Williams. Photo shoots are a LOT of things. They are empowering, fun, intimidating, humbling, and overwhelming. Even after a decade of these things, I still feel a little self conscious and I never know what to … Continue reading Grinkie T-Girl
When There’s Something Lame in the Neighborhood, Who Ya Gonna Call?
The MN T-Girls, over the last (almost) 12 years have done some really amazing events. There are some activities that will provide wonderful lifelong memories and some that have been, well, let's be charitable and call them underwhelming. The MN T-Girls had our monthly event this past Saturday and as the days led up to … Continue reading When There’s Something Lame in the Neighborhood, Who Ya Gonna Call?
