Hello :)
I'm 28 and only now figured out what I am, which is such a relief. I live in a community where nobody talk's about things like this. I was always embarrassed that I watched gay movies. plus the fact that my body seemed like a mistake. I couldn"t look at myself in the mirror until I was 16, which was when I decided to accept my body, and to dress it up like a barbie, sense it doesn't feel like it's mine anyway. I am married, but was never satisfied because I was hiding what I really wanted. surprisingly my husband is very supportive, and we changed allot of things in bed, and for the first time in my life I have some fun and peace. I would really like to hear from others like me. Current Mood:  hopeful | | Friday, March 9th, 2012 | 9:45 pm

Girlfags & boobs
So .. girlfags and boobs. Hm. What is your relationship with these spare bits of flesh? I quite like them in a good bra - to have a feminine-looking cleavage and it's all natural. No hormones required. But sometimes I think of them almost like "moobs", so I'm "male" and have taken loads of hormones and therefore have great boobs. I feel like I'm a MfF transsexual but without all the effort that that usually requires. I pass perfectly as a woman. But will never be one. Not inside. I'm very conscious that I am a poof. I like that - I would like to reclaim that word, if I may. I talk, move, walk like a gay male. Actually I walk and move like a man. I always have. Even though I am not butch. Not in any way shape or form. That is what I can't get my head around. Apart from I swear a lot and like to be one of the guys sometimes. So ok, maybe a little. "Normal" girls often see me as quite butch anyway. I'm so jealous of gay men that they get to be gay men. I like to watch films and read books with homoerotic/homosexual themes. But it is always accompanied by sadness. Sadness that I have to apply imagination and mental effort to be able to live that as me. So that's what I got from my boobs and thinking about what they mean to me, which is often nothing really. I don't have much feeling in them and I'm often quite bemused that they are there. They're nice to squeeze. But I'm glad they're small. Very fucking glad actually. So that's me and my boobs. yay. :) Current Mood:  thoughtful | | Monday, March 5th, 2012 | 10:34 am

New to the girlfag community
Hello all! I've been struggling with my sexuality/gender for several years now and was recommended to the girlfag community by a friend to help me find my answers. I am 20 years old, a student in an American university studying mathematics, and intern at Merrill Lynch. Growing up, there was always something different about me. My earliest memories are dressing up in my sister's clothes and in kindergarten, I would daydream about turning into a girl. As a teen, instead of sexually fantasizing about females, I would fantasize about transforming into a girl. I began to experiment with crossdressing and I loved it. I never developed the normal sexual feelings towards women, although I will say that I am attracted to women more so than men. Instead, when I see a pretty girl I want to be her instead of have sex with her. It's been a very hard life because my sexuality is in such conflict and incongruence with my otherwise male identity. I am successful, educated, handsome, and athletic, yet at the same time, I have the internal desire to be female. I would love to meet a female who could accommodate my unique gender and sexual needs. I am extremely open minded and accepting of anyone else's unique circumstances and desires as well. I want to meet more guydykes and girlfags so please feel free to contact me on livejournal or at josephfrankdinatale6@gmail.com and I'd be happy to share my pictures and more information about myself. | | Thursday, February 16th, 2012 | 11:26 am

New cover and two weeks to go!
To my friends, family, colleagues and supporters: With just two weeks to go, we’re past halfway in our fund-raising project for Girlfag: A Life Told In Sex and Musicals... but we’re going to need a big last-minute push to take us over our goal amount of $7500. Fortunately, we now have a great new tool to help with this project – an absolutely gorgeous cover by my longtime collaborator John Brenner of Johnny Ink, which you can see here. Hope you like it! However, new donations have slowed down in the last week, and if we don’t get a kick of new people in the next couple of weeks we may miss our $7500 goal. Now, don’t get me wrong – I am going to publish this book anyway, somehow. But in order to do it justice – to back it with the marketing, PR and merchandising it needs to reach its intended audience of people who don’t feel comfortable with traditional categories of gender and orientation – we need to raise that money. So, please: If there’s any way you can help – by donating what you can spare, by telling friends who might be interested, by posting our link (www.facebook.com/groups/266988160014719/ ) to your Facebook page, or anything else you can think of – now’s the time to do it! And, as if you needed any more incentive... if you refer a friend who donates at least $50, you’ll qualify for a free Girlfag patch. Just ask your friend to drop me a note along with their donation so I know who’s responsible. So stop by now to the Kickstarter page at www.kickstarter.com/projects/janetwhardy/g irlfag-a-life-told-in-sex-and-musicals . You’ll find everything you need – a complete description, some excerpts, and a nice big picture of the cover – plus a wide range of awesome incentives to loosen the strings on your wallet. Plus, of course, the knowledge that you’ve helped bring important new information into the world of sexuality and relationships (and, of course, musical theater)! Thanks to you all, Janet W.

Virgin Cherry Post!
Squee! This is a happy place! Hmm… I’m kind of androgynous. I only date bi guys, or guys that consider themselves primarily gay, though I have made exceptions with bi-curious guys! I seriously ask before I will go out with them! :D
I pal around fine with straight guys who usually just see me as one of them and therefore tend not to censor their conversations around me We seem to have 0 attraction for each other, which is perfect in my opinion as they aren’t my type. :)
I just don’t get along with straight women. I have tried and tried to understand them and they remain forever a mystery to me. It is like they sense I am not one of them and it weird’s them out or something like that. :/
My friends point out gay news bits and head me toward gay male oriented movies! When it pops up on Netflix as recommended everyone knows which is mine! ;P
I don’t consider myself ftm, as I think I am more of an androgyne. When I dress normally it’s like a boy, and I’ve got tips from my bois how to be more guy! lol!
My last boyfriend thought I was transsexual mtf when he met me and I’ve been called a drag queen before when I go dressed out as a girl! ha ha!
I’ve also worked in an all male drag bar! (well mostly as I was there) I am that much of a girl fag! :D
I am looking forward to reading the posts here! I think that you are all awesome!!! Current Mood: happy | | Saturday, January 21st, 2012 | 6:13 pm

Please help make "Girlfag" a reality!
To my friends, family, colleagues and supporters: As many of you know, I have spent the last several years working on a book called "Girlfag: A Life Told In Sex and Musicals." A "girlfag," says Wikipedia, is "a biologically female individual who feels a strong romantic or erotic attraction towards gay or bisexual men, or their social environment." (Her biologically male equivalent is called a "guydyke.") I started working on "Girlfag" while working on my MFA, and have continued to shape it since then. The book is partly a personal memoir and partly an exploration of the whole idea of girlfags, including such historical figures as Pharaoh Hatchepsut, George Sand and Mary Renault. And it has lots and lots of musical theater, because that's just the kind of girl(fag) I am. I've decided to bring my twenty years of small publishing expertise to bear on making "Girlfag" a reality this year. Toward that end, I have founded a new publishing company, Beyond Binary Books, which will publish literary works from the edges of conventional categories of gender, orientation, race and class. "Girlfag" will be its first publication in the fall of this year. Although my years in small publishing have taught me how to wring a lot of juice out of a small amount of money, this project does require some funding. That's why I'm asking for your help. I've started a Kickstarter crowdsourcing site for the Girlfag project, at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/janetwhardy/girlfag-a-life-told-in-sex-and-musicals . Here are some of the things you can do to help move this project to completion: 1. Be a backer! Even if you only have a dollar or two to spare, every little bit helps -- and I've provided incentives ranging from signed postcards to personal appearances, for every possible level of participation. Becoming a backer at any level will ensure that you're kept posted on the progress of the book from manuscript to finished publication. 2. Boost the signal! At the end of this email, I'll provide a short note that you can: - forward to your personal or business mailing list - include in your newsletter - post on your Facebook, Myspace or Livejournal page - tweet - share on Fetlife and other social sites dedicated to alternative sexual and relationship structures - discuss with your clients, students and friends 3. Tell your friends! Help me build buzz about girlfags and guydykes in general, and this book in particular. The more people that know we exist, the greater the audience for the book (and the more options for relationships that meet the needs of people who aren't well served by traditional categories). Thank you for anything you can do, and for being a part of my life. Hugs, Janet W. Hardy ---- Hi! I'd like you to take a look at the Kickstarter site for a new book project written by my colleague Janet Hardy, the co-author of the well-known polyamory guidebook "The Ethical Slut," at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/janetwhardy/girlfag-a-life-told-in-sex-and-musicals . I know you're a person with an interest in literature and/or alternative sexuality and relationship structures, and I hope you'll be able to help Janet bring her book to the world.

Hello...! I have news, which is that a sort of might have started a kind of blog on tumblr called You Know You're a Girlfag when... because it's a sort of thing that people do there sometimes (and you don't have to be on tumblr to look at it or leave suggestions or messages in the ask box). So, it's very new, and anything you can submit would be very much appreciated! In other news I also have an icon picture which is of a young Stephen Fry smoking a pipe and looking at me in a very distracting way as a try to write this. I can't cope with that picture. | | Tuesday, January 17th, 2012 | 6:16 am

Memoir coming in the fall, finally
A few of you have expressed an interest in my memoir, "Girlfag: A Life Told in Sex and Musicals." I've been shopping it around to publishers for a year or two, but the industry is running scared right now (and rightly so), and nobody's too interested in a literary memoir about what they think is a niche sexuality. So, I'm going to self-publish it under the imprint Beyond Binary Books. I've started a FB group for it at http://www.facebook.com/groups/266988160014719/ ; hope you'll join us there. As it gets closer to completion, I'll post notices of landmarks here (cover design, reviews, news, etc.), but if you're interested in more frequent postings, you should join us on FB. Hope to see you there! -- Janet W. Hardy | | Friday, November 4th, 2011 | 2:48 am

What's Up
Sooo... I didn't even know that any of this existed until five minutes ago. :D It's amazing though. Just... I was that girl that dressed like all her guyfriends, even when I was little, for the most part. Pink generally disgusted me, oddly enough. Until we all knew better, I was one of the guys, albeit the extra-sensitive one. I always felt a little... well, off. I didn't realize what exactly was off until a few weeks ago: I honestly feel like a gay guy stuck in a (very) female body. So here I am, 18 years old, feeling like I'm in the proverbial closet, once again. (Yeah, I came out of the bisexuals' cabinet 2 or 3 years ago. Woo!)What's up guys! Current Mood:  nervous |
