  Transgender Help

Renee Reyes Official Website

Renee's site is what my site wants to be when it grows up.  If you've got questions about ANYTHING Transgendered, Renee's site should always be your first stop.  You'll find the answers there. 

You won't find a smarter, more savvy,  talented, or  beautiful soul on the face of the earth.  Don't however believe a word she says about my dancing!

Stef's Lipstick Lounge

If you can drag yourself away from the pictures of this hot babe...Stef has got some GREAT information on make up application and how to create cleavage.  Learn from an expert and enjoy the scenery while you do it!

Briana Bryant's Powder Room

Here is the site that I WISH I could have found when I was getting ready to tell my "Secret".  Brina is a FAB person with a LOT of GREAT information.  Check her out!!!!

 

Suzie's Cabin

Home to Suzie Petersen, one of my best friends on earth.  She supported me and coached me through the whole *telling my wife thing*. 

Suzie can do ANYTHING (and probably HAS!).  Her site has a wealth of information on make up, photography, illusion and computer stuff.   Plus some drop dead beautiful pictures of her drop dead beautiful self! 

Got a question?  Check out her site.  Still don't understand?  Write to her!!!  She's the BEST!

 

Vickie's Palace

Vickie Collins is not only a Southern Belle Society Grand Matron Belle...but a wonderful, supportive friend.  Visit her site and she why she's so special to me and so many others.

You'll find links to Drag related topics and a great list of T-Friendly Nightspots there!

 

Paige Teamond's Little World of Transgender Life

Ever wondered what would happen if you combined a pretty girl, a Giant Redwood Tree, your favorite comedian and your best friend?  The answer is Paige. 

Paige has and excellent section on determining clothing sizes for T-Girls and a great links section!

When you see her, tell her to stay off my corner!!!

 

Trans-Gender Expressions

Everything from therapists, to nightclubs, to legal aid, to political action groups listed by state.  An invaluable site!

 

TS/TG Society

Everything from T-friendly Automotive Service, to Psychologists, to Nightclubs....all listed by State.  Not as comprehensive as Trans-Gender Expressions, but worth a look.

 

Gayscape

Great site to find where to go in your area.  More Gay focused than Trans...but what do you expect?  *G*

 

 

  Transgender Social Organizations

 

Southern Belle Society

A quote from the Southern Belles Founder says it all. 

*Our Transgender group was formed  for the purpose of getting like minded girls together,  for getting out on the town,  and, or just socializing, here you will find, Sisters, maybe like yourself. *

I am a proud Member of the Southern Belles and recommend it highly for the girl who wants to get out in public and meet some of the best friends she'll ever have!!!

Oh...and you DON'T have to live in the South to be a Southern Belle!

 

Vanity Club

The goal of Vanity Club members is to live an ideal. That ideal is the freedom of expression with their particular desire to emulate and/or attain womanhood while  maintaining the highest possible standards of beauty, elegance, glamour, sophistication and style.

I am a proud NEW member of the Vanity Club....*G*  Check it out!

 

Southern Comfort Conference

Not technically a social group...but important to know about! 

*Here you’ll find support, information and friends in a welcoming atmosphere of Southern hospitality. Vendors, authors, entertainers and leaders from the entire spectrum of the transgender community will be on hand for five days of learning, networking and fun.*

*Southern Comfort prides itself on being an all-inclusive conference. Whatever your connection to the transgender community-whether you are transsexual, cross dresser or in between; spouse, partner or family member; straight, gay, bi or omni sexual; post-op, pre-op or non-op; young or old; married or single; FtM or MtF; or of any variance—if transgender is an issue in your life, you are welcome at Southern Comfort Conference.*

If the Transgender Commuinty had a *Mecca*, this would be it!  Girls from around the world come to this yearly event in Atlanta.

T-Friendly Night Clubs and Restaurants

I have personally visited all of these fine establishments and recommend them!

Indiana

Indianapolis

Bourbon Street Distillery
316 Indiana Avenue
Indianapolis, IN

Great club with live music!  Very T-friendly, but mostly straight.  The downstairs is a little scary, but the UPSTAIRS is very kewl with a great view of the city skyline!

I blush to say that I've never had to pee there, so ask about which bathroom to use.  Picture friendly.

 

Talbott Street
2145 North Talbott St.
Indianapolis, IN
317-931-1343
 

A gem of a nightclub in a renovated movie palace.  Kickin' dance floor, STUNNING balcony area decorated in all off white that overlooks the dance floor making it the perfect place to chat.  The Show Bar is a bit cramped and the show itself is ok...but I'll say this much....the performers get up close and personal, work hard for and EXPECT tips!  LOL!

Unisex bathrooms without locks.  Take a guard when you go.  Picture friendly.  Very alert Security Personnel make you feel safe and will offer to call you a cab if you look like you might oughtn't to be driving.
