In this episode, Savannah and Julie discuss the stark differences and similarities between men presenting as women and the cis-women they are trying to emulate. For years, each gender diverse MTF person has cultivated what they consider to be their own version of the feminine experience, yet may never truly understand what women have gone through in life. Can us crossdressing men truly understand what the struggles of a genetic woman have been and continue to be? Or, are we only privy to our own queer struggles? ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Judy and Savannah discuss the timeless question, "When is it going to stop being about you?!" For every significant one who discovers or is revealed to that their male's propensity to dress enfemme, there is a high percentage of couples who endure the male partner's 'Pink Cloud' and their sudden obsession with all things feminine. All the while the female partner is wondering whether they themselves will ever see the brightness of the spotlight again. This is not about selfishness. It is about a balance between all parties. It is about remembering that each person in the relationship deserves to be seen, heard, and cherished. From feeling less pretty than their male counterparts to feeling left behind for more furtive feminine fields, Savannah and Judy have a lively discussion about it all. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Savannah reads a letter to Julie from Melanie, a CD site administrator, who felt the podding duo missed an important opportunity about a serious matter when discussing Fred 'Bubba' Copeland in episode 162 (Top Secret Dox). Keeping one's feminine identity private--and taking thoughtful and vigilant protective measures--should always be of utmost importance to a gender diverse individual, especially when being found out could have dire consequences in their day-to-day life.

In this episode, Savannah and Julie discuss all the ways that embracing one's feminine side can reverse the aging process. From the practical and physical aspects of looking younger to the psychological side of being more in touch with the feminine spirit and all the vigor it can bestow, to regressing to a younger age in order to make up precious femme time, a man presenting as a female can bring with it many timeless qualities. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Judy and Savannah discuss the following question... "Why does Savannah need to wear heels all the time?". From the want to feel more feminine, distract from large feet, make that booty pop and the tits jut out, to the aura of the overly feminine spirit, Savannah and Judy weigh the pros and cons of wearing only heels. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Savannah and Julie do a bit of checking in about books and movies before discussing what it would be like if the crossdressing man's female partner wanted to experience what it would feel like to add a "package bulge" in their boxer briefs. What happens when the heel is on the other foot? Sure, we want to be feminine with our breastforms, hip and booty pads, and waist compression foundation garments. But, could we handle it if our partners wanted to embody the masculine? Savannah votes "yes", of course. And, along the way and with many detours, Julie and Savannah discuss penile packages, genital extenders for intimacy, and more! ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Savannah brings up to Julie a specific Montana Legislature Senate Bill 458 that aimed to add more concise gender binary language into other existing state laws. As a result, the Two Spirit Society fought back as they felt the bill introduced and passed in October 2023 infringes on their inalienable rights to recognize two-spirit as a gender in their tribal culture. This raises questions about how government can enforce a gender binary limitation on laws when two spirit is a pre-existing cultural belief, and the scientifically recognized gender of Intersex is also at risk of erasure in the state.

In this episode, Julie reads Savannah a letter from a former contact to the FoxandHanger.com business. But this letter is not filled with butterflies and rainbows, oh no. Instead, this letter includes a reference to fun crossdressing in times past, a statement that they had abandoned that practice long ago, and the declaration that they were no longer cool with that scene and that trans folks indeed had a mental disorder and needed to be helped to return to a semblance of normalcy.

In this episode, Savannah and Julie pull a story direct from social media, where a close friend of the podcast regaled her FaceBook wall with a post about her revealing her feminine side to a more conservative neighbor during a holiday party. What started earlier in the evening as "we should go take in a music event" before the reveal became "Don't ever bring 'her' around me because it makes me uncomfortable" after the reveal. Why does ones long personal history sometimes evaporate when we reveal our gender diversity with them? Why can't we all exhibit kindness when discussing our differences and what makes us comfortable and uncomfortable?

In this episode, Julie asks Savannah why men love wearing women's clothes. What is it specifically about the soft and satiny feel of material, the way the clothing compresses and fits on the body, and the styles and colors and varieties that men with feminine spirits re drawn to? Men's clothes are basically simple, boring, and uninspired, while women's clothes are simply awesome!

After a Saturday evening out with the girls (including Leigh Anne), Crystal comes on the show with her origin story, her current journey into transition, her efforts to create safe spaces and supportive community around her hometown, and the shocking revelation that when she shared Crystal with her mom, her mom replied with the anecdote that Crystal's own father had been known to and caught dressing in her mom's lingerie.

In this episode, Savannah brings the story of Baptist Pastor and local Mayor Fred Copeland to Julie, highlighting the tragic tale of a man targeted for his "behind the scenes" crossdressing and the effects it had on his life after a conservative blog site exposed his behaviors to the public. While Copeland addressed his congregation for what had been revealed, and while his family and friends and community seemed to be fully behind him with support, Fred Copeland did take his own life in the aftermath of the doxxing of his personal life. This is a sensitive subject so we do want to be mindful that this episode could be triggering for some people. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Savannah and Julie take about their stresses and aches and pains and angsts for the early autumn before getting into the interesting topic of the pros and cons of the labels we use to self-describe our humanity. From the cons of seeing labels for others as established stereotypes and misinformation to the pros of using a label to best understand ourselves, labels can be both a good thing and a bad thing. I guess its all about who you're asking. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.
