Do Girls STILL Wanna Have Fun?

When was the last time you put your heals on and went out, JUST to be seen? Geeez do I miss having fun… Everything and everyone has become so damn serious!?

Well, this I am certain...

….this town needs an Enema!!

My Gawd, what has come over us? Do you even remember what it means to be having fun these days? From what I have been reading, I would argue, “no”! So what’s happening to us?

Maybe it’s the Blogs I have been reading, or the emails people have been writing me, but I feel an infection has spread like an epidemic upon our community. With all the politics, labeling, and power struggles going on – who has the time to be happy?

Everyone seems to be trying to “set the tone” of what IS and ISN’T proper for Trans people to be doing… This is why I LOVE my Cross Dresser sisters. Now, I have as much baggage as the next Trans-Person, but I am actually jealous of CD’s in their ability to enjoy themselves and have fun. For the most part, once one accepts they’re CD, they learn to compartmentalize their life by keeping their Boy & Girl life separate – and I respect that… no, I ADMIRE that! I wish to bugger I could have!

Now, I’m not trying to “call to arms” a Fishnet Cop Parade on Burdon street, but at the same time, we don’t have to settle for buying the medium sized Jacuzzi either. So why aren’t we getting out ?

If you find yourself falling into this category of sitting around asking yourself “What the Hell Happened?”, then maybe you need to do yourself a favor: Get out that favorite dress, load up on the eye shadow, call your sisters, score some tickets to see Obama & Hillary on Ice – and afterward , grab the Video-Cam and do donuts with your SISTAH’S in a snow covered parking lot at 1am!

Use your imagination… but what ever you do, don’t stay home and allow life to pass you by. To quote Kung Fu Panda “Yesterday is history; Tomorrow is a Mystery; but today, is a Gift… That’s why they call it, The Present”.

If you’re feeling the stagnation of not progressing with your gender presentation, could it be that it hinges on your ability to exercise it in open space? To find out, give yourself this quick Exam:

• Have you been repeatedly covering yourself in Tattoos in order to feel like you have SOME control over changing ANY aspect of your body?
• Is your Panty drawer over flowing with bargain bin underwear with the tags still on them?
• Are the batteries in your vibrator expired?
• Are you more concerned with the rise and fall of the Thai Baht or making a run for the moonlight madness sale at JC Penny?
• Do you know what LimeWire is?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, its NOT to late for you – there IS help. If the places you usually haunt have gotten boring, then venture out. Spend a few bucks and GO SHOPPING for yourself… and (Note to self: Insert shameless plug here) if you swing by the Victoria Secret Store, I am not apposed to gift cards from there, or anywhere else. {grin}

Seriously though, you may find that a change of scenery and even companions might just be the taste of success that will suit you. But like anything else though, you have to work at it and if you don’t use it, YOU LOOSE IT! No matter what the reason this season, don’t allow another day to fall off the calendar settling for life’s curbside seats.

What are you waiting for?
