Fantastic week of Adventures


I recently read a magazine article that said that we nowadays use the words fantastic, awesome, wonderful, incredible, etc so freely that it's lost its true meaning in our everyday vocabulary.

Well, I've just had the most fantastic, awesome, wonderful and incredible en femme adventures in Canberra...and I mean that in its truest and fullest sense.

I had a week of going out every evening and met the nicest people and had a wonderful time en femme.

- Great cocktail bars...Trinity Bar, Hippo Lounge, Tilleys and Knightsbridge Penthouse
- fantastic live jazz at Hippo Lounge
- a wonderful evening of conversation, cocktails, dinner and more cocktails in the company of my friend Szusza
- really interesting and stimulating conversation with two wonderful people...the bar staff...at Knightsbridge Penthouse who had to throw me out at 3am in the morning
- oh yeah, and I locked my hotel room keys in my room and had to get a spare key from reception...while dressed as Dee!

A really fantastic week. I just wish that every week could be such a complete en femme week. Off course it was also a sad week as a very good friend of mine passed away at the end of the week under very sad and tragic circumstances.

Where to from here in terms of my femme-transgendered-crossdressing side? I know where I'd like it to go...if I had a magic wand, which I don't have. So instead I will be sensible and pragmatic and continue to enjoy these moments when my whole-self comes together as Dee. Sometimes, as has been the case over recent months, I'll get plenty of opportunity to express my femininity in a physical manner and other times I know I'll get very infrequent opportunity. There is no doubt that I'm the happiest and with a centered psyche when I can dress en femme and interact with people as Dee. Not that I want to transition...I know I'm not transexual and I know that I am and need to be both male and female.

At the end of the day we need to live our lives in a way that's practical, pragmatic and takes into account the needs and wishes of the loved ones around us. So many people live selfish, self-centered lives. That's not the way to live our lives...the people around and with us are so important and we must never forget that. For me, this means that I can only occasionally dress en femme as my wife and kids need a husband and father. I'm happy with that. That's what I want above all else. I do off course realise that this "pragmatic-approach" is only possible because I actually have a need to be both male and female...my opinion and decisions would have been totally different if it had been essential for me to live my live 24/7 as a woman.

For those interested in the complete blow-by-blow story of the week's adventures...in typical Dee-style, which means long rambling inner thoughts expressed writings...have a look at my website (www.deefemina.com)under "Adventures". The relevant story/adventure is titled "4 Straight Knights in a Row".
