Hi everyone! I am a 28 year old married crossdresser living in the East Lansing/Lansing Michigan area and would like to meet others locally for friendship and possibly even to start up a support group. Hope to hear from some of you Mid-Michigan people soon!


The mention of wanting to start a support group makes this one stand out for me. There's something so human about it. Other users mention attending Tri-Ess, which functions somewhat similaly, although seems to be a group exclusive to heterosexual male-identified crossdressers, though the reality of that exclusion is unclear to me at this time. 3/14/23.

Tall, hetero, handsome DRAB, occasional TV/CD would like to meet a woman in the DFW/surrounding area for friendship and/or relationship I'm not looking for a woman to help me dress or get made up per se (though if you want to that's OK with me), just someone who knows this is something I do occasionally and can be cool with it. My interests are science fiction, rollerskating, football, model building, roleplaying/strategy/collectible card games (i.e. D & D, BattleTech, Magic: The Gathering), and shopping. I have brown hair and eyes, and don't smoke or drink. Am a member of Tri-Ess. Magic: The Gathering players a plus.

I am a 29 year-old tv looking to meet others in my area for friendship, outings dressing up, etc. with my wonderful open S.O. Please be sincere.


There's an earnestness to this one that I appreciate. The mention of a supportive significant other shows up a couple of times in the personals that I've combed through and it always fills my heart. "Please be sincere." 3/14/23

Hi guys! I'm a 21yo transgirl looking for guys or TS/TV/CD persons to send me hot email! I'm a very passable and attractive redhead, 5'5", 122lbs, who dresses like a slut and gets away with it. If I sound like someone you'd like to get to know, send me some email and tell me about it! Ciao!, Sarah

This is the earliest and only instance in the archive so far that I've seen the word "transgirl" used. Besides "TS/TV/CD," "email," and maybe "transgirl" with no space between the words, this post reads like a modern personal from an app like Lex got accidentally filed on TGG.

Where`s Jenny T ? Did she get tucked at a Bed & breakfast resort ?


A quick Google of "bed and breakfast resort ts tg tv" didn't reveal anything. I assume "tucked" refers to SRS or an orchi. Unsure if "bed and breakfast resort" is a specific location or just slang for traveling to get a procedure. Will update this comment after some more research. 3/14/23

"Fe-mail" made me laugh out loud the first time I read it. 3/14/23
