Cross Dressing ⁄ Trapping & etc

I am a 20 year old male and i really want to become a trap, or as close as i can get. i haven't crossdressed outside of my room and my main concern is that not matter what i do ill just end up looking ugly. my gf has been alot of help but i want to know if anyone can help me out. i have an average build but ive been trying to slim down. i just want to know is there anyway i can look good without using hormones. idk if i want to go that far yet.

Perhaps this isn't exactly the right crowd to propose this question to, but then again, no other crowd seems quite right. For the past two and a half years I've been dating the same crossdresser. She's awesome and we're thinking about making it permanent, it would be just like a commitment ceremony, but here's the thing: I haven't told my parents about her yet. For two and a half years I've been talking about my girlfriend but they've only seen her a couple of times and it took gobs of time on both our parts to work up the courage to even do that. She's passable enough that it worked those two or three times but they think she's a girl, albeit a bit of a manish-looking one with a bit of a deep voice... They are hardly tolerant of gays at all and would rather see people like me not exist, although of course they don't exactly know they hate me too. The question is, how do I come out to my parents this late in the game? I love 'em to pieces, just really not their religious traits which are making them act like assholes whenever the subject comes up. If they don't like gays they'll double-hate me for lying to them and I would legitimately fear for my girlfriend's safety if she went over to their house to meet their friends. It's killing the both of us since both of us want to tell them but neither of us can think of a way that won't mean that I never talk to either one of them ever again.

:( Advice at all?

I'll throw my craigslist email out there: clist.anonymous@gmail.com from Ontario. I'm sure some of the people from the last thread(s) stopped using theirs. Let's get this one to 1000!

Hey Girls^^

Do you know any diet or shampoo etc. that makes your hair grow faster?

Mine grows far too slow and i wish i had long hair

Ok, so I am a biological male, and really have no desire to be female. However, people tell me I have a figure for trapping and that I would look good dressed up. I never really tried it because I am afraid of doing it wrong and looking absolutely terrible. I was kind of hoping I could find another trap to dress me up, but I never managed to find anyone. I mean, this may not be a regular thing, but I always sort of wanted to try it. I have a sort of fem figure with semi-masc face, broad shoulders and a deep voice. I don't really own any girl's clothes other than underwear and some girl's workout shorts. Thoughts?

I know what is most recommended for a close shave on the face is like a mach 3 or something but I don't have the money to be wasting $20 on razor blades anymore so does anyone have any good recommendations for disposables, plz no hate

ok, so i talked to this guy on msn, and weve arranged to meet today to have sex with me while im dressed as girl. ive dressed a few times but always alone and ive always have the curiosity of being with a guy like that but never had the balls to do it.
the thing is im starting to chiken out of the whole thing and im not sure if ill go to this meeting. i dont know if i posted this in the right place but pls tell me some of ur experiences, im very confussed :S

I need some advice... please help me out.
I'm a guy, 20 years old, who would like to start taking hormones as soon as possible but i'm also a bit unsure about this.
1: I'm hetero. I do not feel any attraction to males, neither masculine bodies, besides (and i think for the same reason) I really hate my body and I'll prefer a more feminine figure and ofcourse a different lifestyle. Is this a good reason or I have to be homo to have the transition?
2: I never have done crossdressing outside my room, ( I hope I'll have the courage to go out when I'll be passable...) my friends and my parents dont know this and i dont think they will accept my wishes.

Omitting the point 1 and 2, there is the real big doubt: "And if I'll look very very ugly? If I'll never be passable?" There is not turning back so i get a bit scared. Also, the more time i wait to start HRT the less effects it will give in the future...

I'm sorry if my english is bad, its not my native language anyway i hope you understand me and please reply some advice.
I really dont know what to do.

So, I've always been really overweight. I don't mean just like, a little, really fucking fat. Then I started weight-lifting for fitness, and now I'm like nearly 400 pounds, can benchpress 800 or more... depends on how many plates the gym has.

And I want to try trapping.

Should I like, just not even bother? I don't know how I could go from my body now down to the kind of petite, slender female body I'm thinking of. Best I think I can do is like, freaky body-builder lady.

I don't know my exact body fat percentage ratio, but I think it's something like 56% fat the last time I got checked at the gym, and I'm a little more toned now. So if you do the math, that's like 224 pounds of muscle...

How in the hell do I deal with that much muscle, and without killing myself? I mean, I've never even began to think about fitness in a way like this... I've tried thinking of jogging, but that would just make my legs get ultra ripped and nasty looking. Not the soft, subtle thighs I'd want, and I'd have to diet forever for that kind of muscle to waste. Toning would take forever, and I'd only really managed to get like, down to a normal man's physique, not a woman's.

I don't know, I feel like if Lou Ferrigno let himself go and then decided he wanted to trap. Completely hopeless...

So I don't know, is it like, just pessimisms or do I really even have a shot dropping down to like, a 150 pound petite trap?

Is it safe to have a banana in my ass? I mean for 30+minutes at a time with no condom. Im afraid of it going too far up so i literally lose it and cant take it out again. I pretty much want to sit at my pc or watching tv with something in there.

Hey girls :)

I've been lurking here for awhile and I eventually want to be a fulltime trap. I've never been comfortable as a male, I feel like I've always been playing a role. With that said, I think I have a lot of things going for me (I'm short, I have a round jaw line, generally feminine face, supple waist, smooth, non muscular legs, I'm not fat but I seem to have a head start on boobs somehow) and a lot of things not so much going for me (facial hair that won't quit, body hair that won't quit, hair that might be receding). I'm 22 now but I've always wanted to do this. I live in LA, away from my family, with my boyfriend who isn't entirely against it. By not entirely against it, I mean I don't think he'd break up with me over it, but he would probably make fun of me for it a little though. Aside from that, I've even told all the people I work with that I eventually want to be a girl and even joked about getting a new name badge that says "Zoey" on it. I only have a few pictures of me crossdressing (right now it's just me dressed up as Velma for Halloween) because it doesn't happen that often unfortunately due to a lack of money to make it happen.

I guess my main question is, if I want advice on where to go next with transition, is it okay for me to post a couple of pics? The CD board on Tranchan seems more for porn which I'm not ready for.

Hey all, I go to my local gym about 3 times a week, for the last couple of years.

I need advice on what kind of exercise to do to turn me into a sexy girl. (Yes I know it won't be that magically easy, but at least put me in the right direction). Not interested in hormones (at least for now), CD only. So what can I do? I'm too embarassed to ask for a program from a gym instructor for a girl, so hopefully someone here can help.
ps. I'm a bit overweight, but with a grilyfication program I'll have renewed enthusiasm to work on my figure!

Constructive help only please, not looking for trolls.

Aside from the "eat a lot" what are the proper steps to gain weight? i'm 6'0 at 140lbs, more skinny than my bones. my chest is showing its ribcage and i prefer to have some perky tits.

Just getting my first girl clothes, this should be fun :| (especially trying to find somewhere to hide it...)

Me and my friends are having a fancy dress party, which sounds fun. I thought the idea was great, but being confronted with the reality of the situation changes that. I'm a biological male and not really out as genderqueer to anyone, thus I'm in a suit (my only one). Now I'm feeling extremely depressed and self conscience because I would rather be wearing something like a nice skirt or a dress and wearing some makeup, like some people are that are here (cis-gendered females). And am constantly thinking about it and getting general depressing thoughts about the while thing.

So basically having a fancy dress up party seemed nice in theory but now it is just serving as a constant reminder of my gender non conformity.
This is being written during the event I'll post it later somewhere just to get it out. I'm not looking for any particular advice just putting it out there.

anyone else having problems with a girl named britney? she's been contacting my family and making a pretty big mess of things :/ just from my email posted in the below post

How can a guy who is interested in cross dressing get his hair to be more like a girl's? There's no way I could pass as having girl hair even if I styled it properly. Please help....

Anybody in the Chicago area (or within like 60 miles) happen to be interested in dating me, a trap-to-be (just androgynous now)? As in, a relationship deeper than just sex (which I don't mind, but want more)?

Craigslist isn't really helping me find anybody, and I already asked on a "similar" site with no good results so far.

Email me if interested, with something like "tranchan" in the subject.

hey, looking for some advice so i figured id start a thread in here... im 19, ive always really wanted to try crossdressing, but ive never really acted on it until recently. i only do it in private and nobody knows i do it. anyway, ive been wanting to get a haircut, just to make everything look nice, but i dont know exactly what i want and i cant find any pictures that id be happy bringing in as an example. i want to get something thats androgynous/feminine without actually looking like a girls' haircut, something that will look good whether im wearing men's or women's clothes and won't draw a lot of questions in either. preferably something w/ bangs of some sort, since my forehead is probably my most masculine facial feature. also, my hair's sort of wavy, and not very long, so im looking for short cuts mostly. pictures or advice or whatever would be GREATLY appreciated!!!! picture unrelated.

Any suggestions on reducing shoulder width/mass? I've heard specifically avoiding exercising those muscles and a low protein diet can help, but that seems very unhealthy.

I have fairly broad shoulders - I am 20, and haven't started hormones yet - and I don't know how much they might help, as shoulders may be a skeletal issue (anyone have personal experience with that?). They really worry me as one of my worst features; any tips to clothing or anything that could help would be appreciated.

Thank you!
