What is my relationship with clothing as a transgender woman?

Hi Everyone, Welcome or welcome back! If you’re new here, my name’s Andy and I’m a transgender woman sharing my journey here on YT! I have to say that even though I’m not a fashionista, I do love clothes shopping and in making sure I look as good as I can. Clothes have been a part of my life forever… I mean, this is probably the case for everyone, but my relationship is complex to say the least. In reality there’s a lot more to say, but I had to try to limit myself to under 20 minutes.

If you liked my outfits across the week, let me know and I’ll link you to the specific pieces, but many pieces are from Risk (https://www.riskmadeinwarsaw.com/en/). I really like this brand as the materials and colours are right up my street. I also bought some things from Cos, Arket, and H&M this week. I’m happy to do a ‘haul’ video, let me know 🙂

Reddit Turned Me Into A Woman…?

How did it come to this… We all were warned of the dangers of Reddit… I didn’t listen. I DIDN’T LISTEN! But really, learn the basic origins of my career, my old-person stories of ancient reddit, and my take on Transgender existence, evolution, and the freedom that occurs when shame is shed. It’s a wild ride.

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.

First Steps Into Transition – With Jules Sandison.

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/

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! 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.

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.

🙂

Blessed are you Father, who has not made me a woman. Kalonymus ben Kalonymus.

Kalonymus ben Kalonymus was a 13th century rabbi and philosopher. This is an extract from his writing in Even Bohan. I am far from being a scholar of this writing, but I found it quite fascinating. I also note that just as today, transgender people sometimes end up reinforcing misogynistic stereotypes. That said, the sentiment comes across the centuries loud and clear.

What can I do as a transgender person post US election?

Hi everyone!
For those new here, my name’s Andy and I’m a transgender woman who has recently started coming out and transitioning. I’ve been sharing my story and experience here on YouTube as a way for me to share what’s on my mind, and to help me verbalise certain things and send them into the universe.

I have to be honest, the decision the American people have made to re-elect Trump has devastated me and so many other people. It’s hard to come to terms with this, and a lot of people are feeling so scared and anxious about the future.

I must admit that I feel somewhat powerless in the face of this rise of a much more right-wing, authoritarian (at best) way of thinking. It saddens and terrifies me that the people who have learned from history are the ones dedicated to repeating it.

I felt I needed to say something – anything – in the hope that it might touch and comfort some of you out there. I want you to know that I am here, even though perhaps a long way away, I feel you.

Looking to history as a blueprint for what we can do – what I can do – shows that there is such power in strenth in unity and community. I hope you can find your group and your people if you haven’t already done so.

As always, I’d love to hear about your experiences and your perspectives – I look forward to hearing from you all in the comments section below!

Love and peace,

Andy

The Resistance Starts Here.

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

I have to say, I’ve seen this before. I remember when Maggie Thatcher was elected in the UK. We shared many of the same feelings people are experiencing today. And we survived, pressured the government and pushed the old witch out. We never give up.
