Sadly, I will not be attending Hamvention this year. My wife’s health has improved a lot, but I don’t feel comfortable leaving her alone for the six days a roundtrip to Hamvention entails. To remind me of what I will be missing, I have been reading my old Hamvention posts and after reading one from 2019, I thought it deserved repeating, so here it is. 2019 Hamvention Booth Babe As a ham radio operator, you usually have no idea about the people you contact over the air. For years, Bill and I were key operators in a ham radio network spanning Connecticut and we worked together to make t ..read more

The reality unfolding in Florida today is just a microcosm of what the United States could look like if Donald Trump were to be elected president this November. By Lil Kalish The reality unfolding in Florida today is just a microcosm of what the United States could look like if Donald Trump were to be elected president this November, according to a nearly 1,000-page document that lays out goals and recommendations for a conservative president. The “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise,” better known as Project 2025, draws upon many of the current state-level anti-LGBTQ+ laws and po ..read more

If you have been following along, you know that I crossdressed at work for Halloween seven times. The first two times, the company had a costume contest and encouraged employees to come to work in costume. The last five times, the company was not sponsoring any Halloween events, but that did not stop me and I dressed in “office girl drag” five more Halloweens in a row. And I would have continued the tradition if the company had not offered me an excellent early retirement package in 2017. Or would I? During the last few years that I was employed, I was hemming and hawing about working en fe ..read more

I am so old that when I was just starting to get my feet wet in heels, a “perfect size 12” was a goal for many woman. Today, I don’t know what size stylish women hope to achieve, but it sure isn't size 12. Today’s size 12 is larger than size 12 of yesterday. (I even managed to fit in some size 12 dresses!)

Up and at them Thursday morning, I made breakfast and sat down in front of the tv to see what’s new. The tv was tuned to TCM, where I left it Wednesday night.  I was about to change channels when I saw William Powell in the film that was now playing on TCM. I thought it might be one of the Thin Man flicks, so I pushed the Info button on my remote control to find out what I was watching.  Turned out that the film was Love Crazy. I thought, “Isn't that the film in which William Powell crossdresses?” I’ve seen photos of his femulation in that film, but never saw the film, so I hung in ..read more

As a closeted crossdresser from age 13 to 33, my voice was not important. The only crossdressed interactions I had with civilians was on Halloween. I was not trying to pass, although I often did (“who is the woman not in costume?”), so my male voice made no difference on the crossdressers’ national holiday. Attending my first support group meeting, I noted that most girls used their male voice, so I fitted in, but the handful of girls who used a femme voice intrigued me. I wanted to be the best crossdresser I could be, so I began investigating how to feminize my voice. I found Melanie Ann ..read more
