First Steps Into Transition – With Jules Sandison.

In this second part of a series about moving into a transgender life Jules Sandison describes how many of us progress in the first steps of transition, and what that really looks like.  We’re not all going to emerge immediately into a fully passable female body, or a female psychology. Far from it. 

This is a longer journey.

Enjoy this episode. Part one can be found here – https://fionadobson.com/from-crossdressing-to-transition-with-jules-sanderson/

Are you sitting comfortably?

OK. Tonight an encompassing exercise is on the cards. I’ve got two videos for you to watch. They have been released within a couple of days of each other, but coincidentally have some fascinating overlap.

Take some time, make a cup of tea and sit down and listen or watch these two videos and you’re going to learn a lot.

Spoiler alert. If you’re in Ohio, by chance, immediately go to Leah’s video and be prepared to step forward. We need you.

Here’s the first video, by Lily Alexandre. You can support her content here – https://www.patreon.com/lily_lxndr

And the second is by Leah Passaniti. Please consider supporting her content here – https://www.youtube.com/@LeahPassaniti

If you’re feeling generous, you know where to find me, but to be honest at present I’m fine and I’d rather you put your dollars to either of these two creators who are doing such sterling work for us.

From Crossdressing To Transition – with Jules Sanderson.

Jules gives us a quick look at the journey from crossdressing to transitioning as a transgender individual. This will help anyone who thinks they may be trans, or friends and family of people who have chosen a transgender life. Enjoy it and let me know what you think.

If you’re new here, my name’s Andy and I’m a trans woman sharing my journey here on YT! 2025 has been a very rocky year for me and transgender people, so I thought I’d share my thoughts on what the effects of 2025 have had on me so far. If you would like to support my channel you can buy me a coffee here: https://buymeacoffee.com/transgenderpositivity

For those of you who do, I’ll send you an extra thing I’ve created as a small gift!

What’s being transgender at work like? Update!

Hi Everyone, Welcome or welcome back! If you’re new here, my name’s Andy and I’m a trans woman sharing my journey here on YT!

Some of you might recall I came out at work a little while ago and I figured it’s a good time for an update to all of that.

The good news it’s generally good news. Although things haven’t been all sunshine and roses.

Dogwood Monarchist Society — Coronation, 2025. Drag show highlights.

This is a celebration put on by The Dogwood Monarchist Society, established in 1972 as a registered non-profit society to run the Imperial Court of Vancouver to support the LGBTQIA+ community. The DMS was recognized as the Mother Court of Canada in 1976, and is now part of over 70 courts across Canada, the United States and Mexico. Since its inceptions, the DMS has raised over $2M for deserving LGBTQ charities, and continues to thrive as an organization and as leaders within the Vancouver community. This is not only a wonderful event, Lenni (our very own) and her wife, Crem, are major drivers of the event and the organisation.

 If you want to support an organisation that gives to deserving LGBTQ charities you should consider even a small one off donation to the DMS. I know how much good their work does and can vouch for their integrity. Donate Here – https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=3LZ29C5UQ795Q

You can now join our online support group for US based trans people for free.

I am very much aware of the distress of many of my members following the election.  Many trans people are feeling vulnerable.

If you are feeling concerned and exposed please use the sign up form below to join a system I am setting up.  The idea of the support group is to put members of each US state in touch with one another.  There is no cost associated with this. By signing up you will be joining this fledging project, and I will email you instructions to join.

Be aware that this is a work in progress. I feel we should get active swiftly though, hence this post. The people who will benefit from this group are trans people in the US of all ages, who are feeling concerned about their healthcare, their physical safety or about social pressures in their area. This is not going to be of interest to people who are purely in the scene for dating/fetish activities. Don’t worry boys, we have other activities for you at FionaDobson.com 

If you feel you’d benefit from connections to other trans people in your state be sure to join and look out for the emailed instructions.

🙂

Crossdressing – Keeping it in the family.

Does the family know? Do you share it? There’s a lot of questions about crossdressing, and gender fluid life that are likely to emerge. How does one handle that? Enjoy this discussion with Jules and Lenni, as they explore the subject.

We are outsiders.

We are outsiders.

We are outsiders,

On the periphery,

Watching everyone else,

Pretending we’re like them,

But knowing we’re not.

The best we can hope for is to find a place where we don’t have to pretend.

Is home a place to run to, or a place we run from?

Only to hide out in places we’re more accepted, unconditionally.

Places that feel more like home to us,

because we can finally be who we are.


Let’s not get hung up on labels.

I see a lot of comments on forums and blogs about the idea of labels. It seems to be a common pass time to try to decide if transgender people are the same as transvestite people – and some terms are now archaic, and others have slipped into alternative use. One way or another I find it a complete mine field.

I am certainly not going to step into those debates. I do understand that there are many different types of people who choose to wear women’s clothes. Some are on their way to transition, others are choosing to put something on as they really find a sexual high out of it. Others still simply want to allow their femininity to blossom. Personally I am enjoying navigating the middle ground between genders that allows me to enjoy something of the best of all worlds. I think we cater to all of those possibilities here on FionaDobson.com.

I find the term ‘gender fluid’ fairly generic. The movement freely and easily between genders does describe what many of my members do, if not who they are. And there I think lies the safe ground. After all, do we really need these labels? Particularly here, if we really think of the phrase ‘Accept yourself as you are, create yourself as you desire’ you’ll see we are not really interested in what others think or how they choose to judge us.

Let’s show our support for Dr. Helen Webberley

Dr. Helen Webberley is one of very few people who have dared to stand up to an establishment that has neglected transgender patients and left them with no support for many years. For so many people, myself included, GenderGP saved my life from a time where my local Health Board wanted to leave me on an endless waiting list. GenderGP provided a wonderful and supportive service and gave me access to treatment that I needed.

On December 3rd 2018 Dr Helen Webberley was found guilty of operating an unregistered clinic for transgender patients. She was fined £12,000.

Dr. Webberley has done nothing wrong other than dare to stand against a system that wasn’t doing enough for its vulnerable patients.

Now is the time for the trans community and trans allies to come together and let Dr. Webberley know how much we support and appreciate the work that she has done for transgender patients.

Look at what the patients have to say about the work of GenderGP; how can we stand back and see this wonderful work threatened! Click Here to Read Words of Patient Support .

We are not seeking to raise funds to cover any legal fees. Simply we are raising money specifically to say “thank you” to Dr Helen Webberley for all the life-saving support she has given the transgender community, and for the personal sacrifices she has made.
