Ashley Phoenix Riley - 6 - An Education of Self

“Your Mom may not appreciate me saying this, but I’m tired of you
pussy-footing around the possibility of being attracted to other girls.
It comes across as a putdown of my relationship with your Mom even
though I don’t think you intend it that way. I know in some ways
you don’t have another place to go. And I love you,

but sometimes feel like I am something less in your eyes!”

Nora Brought Out the Best in Her


Nora Brought Out the Best in Him



By Jessica C

(This is an different story for me, but one that underlies those who waited for others to give them direction or make decisions for them. Hopefully in time each of us accepts who we are and learns to live with oneself.)

The Death of Angels - 4

I had stepped out for some cool air and was coming back in when I saw Karl and the young woman entering the dimly lit hall and his silhouette all but disappeared. He had a spiritual presence that stunk with an ugly stench of evil. Suddenly I knew Marie’s name and asked her to leave him, “Marie, I encourage you to leave, Karl’s promises are not worth it.”

“Woman, I do not know who you think you are, but this is none of your business and I can crush you if you do not shut your mouth. If she leaves you can take her place.”

The Death of Angels - 3

Mom told me, “Sometimes I just know I am an Angel doing God’s will and sometimes I am not so certain I am doing the right thing. I really get upset with myself if I think I did something wrong according to God’s will.” Then Mom asked me, “If you ever find in the Bible where it says angels are always right please let me know.”

“Well, I just thought you always are right, aren’t you?”

Ashley Phoenix Riley - 5 - Traumatic Education

Patti had been in my arms but I just set her down. Three guys on
roller blades came rolling down the walk I gave them as much space
as I could, but one reached out and knocked me to the ground…

She knew the trauma of a young injured woman; the care and observation
took its own toll. The first Doctor in was a Resident, and while he knew
what he was doing, I could have been a side of beef…

“Mom I think they were angry with me because of Ryta or the street guys.
One of them said, ‘I needed to watch out who I associate with…’”

My Office Gift – 4 - The Gift Multiplies

Lilith gave me a big hug and I felt her tears on my shoulder. It was very moving to see life not as an issue, but the life of the tender young woman in my arms.

I saw the light of Angelina going into a room. There was a new girl Deborah that I had not met before. When I got to the room …she was alone, a six year old girl…

“It fit on me beautifully. I kissed the ring as Brittany kissed me.

My Office Gift - 3 - Blossoming of Anne

Britt pulled back her hand as I expected, her eyes were looking up to indicate she was thinking. It was the bright smile that followed I was not expecting. She eagerly grabbed my hands and excitedly said, “Do you know what that means? For some lesbians you are a dream come true!” I must have looked like a deer in the headlights. “That means you could probably get me, someone, pregnant and we could be a couple with our own child.”

I did not let go, but I kind of moved back. “I’m not even sure I am a lesbian. I’m not ready to think of a commitment or something like that.”

I was approached by Ryta to whom I accepted a request to dance...
I gave her a kiss upon the end of our last dance…

Jess and I bumped into each other. I had lost my balance and took
hold of Jess so I wouldn’t fall. Standing face to face, we embraced
with a warm kiss… Jess and I would have more time in the future.

“Where am I?”

“You are in Salem, Salem, Massachusetts. Do you know where that is,” Mom asked?

“I kind of know where it is, but I am more afraid when this is. You said something about witches, I’m hoping we are not back when they had witch trials there,” Glory said. “And just before I crawled up the mattress and stuck my head out, I was a boy.”

“All three results saw you as a very mature person who has characteristics
of both male and female people. The short time we already have had together
indicates you are indeed quite a capable and feeling person.”

“I share this because while becoming a young woman may not be the easiest
journey; I think it is one that well suits you. Your mixture of thoughts,
feelings and experiences in growing into who you are is comforting to me
but no guarantee.”

Ashley Phoenix Riley - 2 - The Girl Comes into View

Before we pulled away the officer ran over to the taxi and handed a card through the window.
Bridgette handed it to me. It was a driver’s license marked ‘Identification only’. There was
my picture and name as Ashley Phoenix Riley. I found a wallet with a change purse and place
for my license along with a place for a phone with an I.O.U for a new phone.

We were on our way. I knew where Bridgette lived, but I wasn’t sure of anything else. A
confused look must have gone onto my face. Bridgette leaned over and gave me one of those
women kisses on the cheek, saying “Welcome to Oz Sweetie.”

Ashley Phoenix Riley - 1 - Arising From the Ashes

“It may sound crazy, but it is the one thing I think I could handle. I am pretty sure a group
home won’t be an option because you know it’s only time before I get away. My Dad gave up on
me long ago, and I wouldn’t go back there anyway. I didn’t do so well against three bigger
guys, so prison would be no better than living a nightmare.”

“You might be surprised, but I do know what a transgendered person is and I’m not one. But Miss
Riley is open and honest, so I know what I would have to live with. I expect that she will turn
me down when I say yes, but that is up to her. I see living as a girl as my only real option.”

“We did not come to be modest,” I said, “these kids health have been hit hard, and the love needs to be beyond us feeling good. We need to know that this would benefit both floors and to show our caring beyond Tuesday night.” With the knowledge we would not forget and be back Cheryl seemed to be well impressed.
Heather spoke up, “I don’t think they will allow that much of your money to go for others.”
Darla shared, “Anne has a strong following in our office we will help her do what she wants.”
I was holding Tracy in my arms as we were ready to leave. “You’re an angel and not just an elf, aren’t you?”

“What are you hoping to achieve?”
“I had a chance to help a neat guy before, and I didn’t, and I regret that.”
“But what does your friend have to do with me? Do you think he is going to see me as a pretty girl.”
“No, I think it is you who possibly wants to see the girl in you.”
“What do you think you know about me or a girl in me?” My voice broke and I noticed I was close to crying.
“What is your name, young woman?...”

The New Girl in My Life - Part 3 - The Daughter and Girl Now Showing

Previously… Mom said thanks. I joked, “Don’t thank me yet, I’ve just started being your daughter. I still want to know more about those feelings and being a girl. You haven’t begun to tell me how to do it or about birth control.” … “Being a girl is what you should be about; you don’t ‘do it’.”

Mom and I had a long discussion. When we were done I went to my room and Dad and Mom got together. I heard Mom say, “This child better be a boy.” Mom, I learned preferred girls but I got her to question that.

Previously… I was a man of sixty-one recovering from quad by-pass heart surgery nine months later when testicular cancer was discovered. The noted surgeon I had waited for was a no show as he was called out of the area... Scans done some two months earlier proved insufficient but the scan prior to surgery by Dr. Greene was lost in their system.

Previously… It was 7:10 and I had a surprise visitor, Matt Petersen had come to see me with Brianna. He was taken back both by how Bri reacted to me and how much of a girl I was. He shared, “Where is the troublesome boy?”…
Jeff is here and neither he nor I are angels.” Bri gave me a hug saying “Angel.” I could not help but cry…
… if I went to stay with the Petersens it was to stay as Jessie and for now to be their foster child. I would need to visit with her regularly and they wanted me on a hormone blocker for one month.

My name is Jeff but for years now and then I get these compulsions to see myself as a girl. It has become a growing ongoing tension between me and my parents that was supposed to be a thing of the past. It was two weeks before school let out for Christmas break, and I had an urge to be sick at school. I worked myself up to be sick so I could get sent home from school. I had weeks ago found some clothes a friend was throwing out and I had taken them, without anyone knowing but not yet had a chance to try them on.

TGM speaking up about girls as best firends

Author, Rating and Tags:

I find friendships with women to be special. As a TGM I find female relations often go deeper, open to sharing at different levels. If it develops to something more is not as important, Friendship is valued just for self.

I find women in LGBT and not accepting one as a friend and showing me a fuller side of life that I find attractive.

I was asked who had added the flowers. I was praised that the little touch was magnificent. I asked if they thought Jeff would like the gown. Mrs. Richards commented “He will love the girl in the gown and that you look so pretty. It will be the other girls who will compliment you on the dress, shoes, your makeup and the many other details.”

“Will Dawn and Denise know how beautiful it is?” Mom smiled at my interest on how I appeared and what friends would think. “Mom, did you notice my feet, I need that second pedicure you talked about.”

I started to put on the skirt when I became aroused and putting on the skirt now had a complication. “Too bad Jeff’s not here to help you,” Dawn said with a smile.

Jeff came in the house. He came over took my hand and asked me to spin around. As I spun around Jeff pull me to him, and said I was beautiful.

“Young woman I am more than happy to be here for you and share, but I think you need to be honest with me and yourself. You may not have planned to kiss, but when it happened I do think you meant it.”

I practiced daily as I can and jammed with Dad at least twice a week picking up a cord sequences here and there. Travis remained my instructor; he was comfortable with my working with Dad, saying I was progressing well.

I am sure it was a bit awkward for Dad as he went to work with no hint of his feminine side. He said it was like living in two worlds as Wanda and the office women wanted to see and know more, and others we clueless.

Dad did make the mistake of telling Wanda a week later our mom was back singing again. Wanda shared he news with Mrs. Dole the wife of the CEO. She was hosting a preholiday social for women but did not want it stuffy or dependent upon men.
