    Hi all . Just thought id put a few things down in a blog that have come up in conversationd in the past few weeks .

    I was chatting to a girl i know the other day , and she said to me how come you seam so confident when your dressed . I couldnt realy give her a good reply as i thought well its just me , so we chatted on for a while and went of to the club . But the question came up again wilst chatting online with another friend , so once again i had to think about it .

    Yesterday i was round a female friends place chatting about life love and all things in betwen , when she made this comment. Your always so confident , i said realy or am i just good at putting on a face . She replyed no your are because your happy with who and what you are . This realy made me think about me and my life. As a trans girl we always question what or who we are and why i think this is part of being trans as every one i know does this as well . 

    So i gave it a bit of thought , and come to the conclusion its down to a few things . Im very happy with my body as it is and as much as id may be like to change a few things it wont make me any happyer . Im also happy with my sexuality so i have nothing to hide there , and i also happy with being honest and open about my life . So add all this up and i think it makes me confident as a person regadless of my gender . 

    Now the real question is how do i pass this on to try and help my friends and other girls i meet out and about , or do i just let them find there own way. Some of you know i run a social meeting down here in devon so im very keen to help girls on there journy . With this in mind i now have to see if may be i can pass some of this on to anyone who wants or needs help moving on . 

    We can all do the right dress the right make up so the look can be good but portraying confidance and happyness is a big ask . So i thought id post this blog and see what comes back your thoughts and comments are most welcome as education and thinking helps promote an understanding of any issue not just ower trans issues . 

    Thanks for taking the time to read this and i hope it might provoke some interesting replys .

  • Pauline Smith Beckie, I think its a lot about self esteem; and where you are on your own personal journey through life. And you or I, or other T girls, could write a book (never mind a blog) about being self confident. After all many Tgirls have low self esteem; or...  more

  • Jet Alexis Armstrong I do think that by writing blogs like this if it can help any of the girls in any way even if they can just take the tiniest bit of guidance from it then we have helped in some small way , i do think that even if you are totaly out and going to all the...  more
