Hello from melissa carter

[lolbats]

welcome to the boards.

Melissa, I have enjoyed reading your posts. You're a beautiful and sexy woman, but there's obviously a lot going on upstairs as well. It sounds like you have been through a lot in your life, but it has made you a stronger person. Thanks for sharing, and I look forward to reading more from you.

MEL,

Thank you SO much, sweet face.

I didn't know the difference--or that there was one--between being trans and being TV. Your explanation was clear and simple w/ your usual articulateness.

Do you think anyone could be into both the inner feminine aspect; like you, and the outer appearance, as well?

Do you wish you started to transition 5 years or so sooner?

I believe that all TS incorporate their enjoyment of feminine attire into their lives. The great distinction between TS and CD is that it's not about "the look" it's about the feeling, or more succintly, the identity. See, for TS we have no other life to fall back on, this is our only identity.

As for starting earlier, fuck yea, I wish I started at sixteen. Then again, given my loose behavior I probably would have been dead by twenty. There are Divine reasons greater than we can explain for why we do what we do when we do it.

I'm just grateful to have found my calling at all, and let's face it, in the world of porn and escorting I'm already an old lady!

MEL,

Have you completed your transition, or do you have more ops other than having more in your lacy bras?

Melissa, nice to have you here. I have to agree with you, at least for me. My transition had really nothing to do with either sex or dressing up. Really, I had plenty for sex prior and could easily have led a "secret life" as a CD. Cripes, I suppose I could have become a drag queen (except I never did learn how to apply makeup THAT well).

It's a part of being Trans that I think lots of people overlook. The clothes and hair and sex are all fine and dandy... but the moment my body started to match up with how I always thought it should have been was the real relief and the moment my life started to turn around.

BIONCA,

Don't a lot of drag queens overdo the cosmetics in a cartoonish or clownish manner? Though I did meet one once that even knowing her gender before meeting her at a party, I still couldn't tell by looking. I wanted to believe my eyes.

You said it best when you said, "the moment my body started to match up with how I always thought it should".

Thanks.

I have breast implant surgery and a minor upper lip lift scheduled this fall. I do not foresee any future augnmentations. I am a non-op and unless my entire vision changes, will never have SRS. The thought of cutting my penis off is a total horror. I like my anatomy, and my cock is easily tuckable. In public day-to-day no one knows what's in my panties, it's my private business. Everything works perfect, I don't want to mess with it.

It is a misnomer that TS reach a "completion" point. We will always have ongoing maintenance, like electrolysis, laser, the occasional injectable filler, Botox, etc...so in essence our work is never done

Thanks for asking!.

MEL,

I talked w/ another non-op, and she looked at it as mutilation.

Is that part of your thinking? It doesn't sound like it.
