What did YOU do this weekend? The MN T-Girls went freaking ICE SKATING for our monthly event. And it was just as fun and terrifying as it sounds.

You Can’t Spell “community” Without U and I
This weekend was the monthly MN T-Girls event. This was a challenging one to plan as I try to finalize the event about two to three weeks in advance but at the end of January we here in the Twin Cities were in the early days of ICE agents destroying our community. It was hard … Continue reading You Can’t Spell “community” Without U and I
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
Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?
*Sometimes the title of a post is a reference to something and this one is a wink to the autobiography by the talented writer and actress Mindy Kaling. The MN T-Girls will always be one of my proudest accomplishments. What started off as a way to meet people and make friends has evolved into a … Continue reading Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?
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. For the last ten years or so, we have marked the end of the year with a holiday party which gives us a chance to wear amazing holiday outfits … Continue reading It’s Beginning to Look Glamorous
Where Have All the T-Girls Gone?
This is not meant to be a political post so please keep that in mind. The queer community (and yes, that includes us) is used to things going kinda well for a bit and then things take a huge step backwards. Maybe things get better again, maybe not. Although there is relief that the Supreme … Continue reading Where Have All the T-Girls Gone?

Each year we rent a studio and our friend Shannonlee pops by and takes glamour shots of our members. We've been doing the annual shoot for quite a few years and despite it … Continue reading Turning a Mess into a Hot Mess
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?
Ghosting
*Not created with AI Now that it's officially spooky season, let's talk about ghosting. I get a lot of emails from those like us and partners of people like us, and some emails you can really tell they are really struggling. Struggling with this aspect of themselves or struggling with this aspect of their significant … Continue reading Ghosting
Saturday Afternoon’s Alright for Thrifting
This past Saturday was the monthly MN T-Girls event and it was wild. I mean, not literally wild. I just felt obligated to use an obviously cliched idiom considering where we went. And where did we go? Glad you asked. We went to Wild Things Antiques and spent the afternoon looking at vintage clothes and … Continue reading Saturday Afternoon’s Alright for Thrifting
