About Me - Rachel's Bio

Thanks so much for stopping in to learn a bit more about me! My chosen name is Rachel Williston. I am a TGirl currently living in the northeastern part of the United States. You could also refer to me as a transvestite, but I prefer TGirl even though I use both here.

Transvestite ... it took me so very long to admit to myself that I am a transvestite. Well ... I am a transvestite. There, I said it! Society still does not generally accept transvestites, so its a little scary I guess that I am one!

How did this whole TGirl thing start for me? If you look at other TGirl websites around (and there are literally thousands of them!), stories are very similar. My beginnings were around age 11. I found myself having an attraction to girls' clothing. This started with lingerie. One day, I actually slipped on a pair of chocolate brown lacy nylon panties along with a gorgeous matching lacy nylon slip. So, in my early teens, I did something that really does effect how a genetic male behaves in the future ... I slipped on a pair of nylon panties for the first time! Yes, it was very exciting and really still is to this day, but in a different way now. These days, panties are just part of my getting dressed as a girl.

Still in my teens, I started wearing dresses that I would buy at thrift-type shops. It was during that time that I wanted breasts, or at least the appearance of breasts. To do this, I had to wear a bra. Kind of embarassing for a teenage boy to buy, but I did go to a store and buy my first very own bra! When I put that bra on, I really started seeing myself as a girl. Shortly afterwards came make up and a wig. A very on-again, off-again sort of thing through my 20's and early 30's.

During my 30's, I realized that I WAS part girl. I needed to be a girl at least part time. Going through several purges (buying girl clothes and then throwing them away), I always came back to dressing as a girl. The important thing to remember about this is that us TGirls ARE part girl and that it is truly pointless to try to deny our feminine feelings. Being a girl can be denied for a time, but cannot be denied forever. It is not an illness, not a sexual deviation, and not something to be cured. It can certainly be difficult being a TGirl, but it is so very much fun too being yourself! (more to follow)
