Exploring Gender: Transgender Children

When diagnosed with Gender Identity Disorder (GID) at a young age, parents are tasked with deciding the best way to help their child. The response of parents varies. Some parents refuse to accept their child, pushing certain beliefs and constraints on them to fall within the line of society. Some allow their child to go through counseling in hopes that it will help, and still others pursue hormonal treatments to help their child transition. There are as many approaches to this dilemma as there are parents facing it.

Requirements for Long Term Lesbian Relationships

Dear Sappho,
What do you think is the most important quality in a long-term lesbian relationship?
Love, sex, acceptance, mutual goals & visions and compatibly are very important but so is reliability, and trust. First I followed my heart then my head and now my gut. Lesbian relationships are different from straight relationships. I’m asking you as the High Priestess Lesbian, what is the best requirement for long-term happiness?

Back It Up

There are times where I find myself wishing a perfect stranger would come up to me and quote Ron Burgundy as a pick up line: because then I’d have found “the one.” And lucky for you, after reading this article, having somebody approach you with the line: “You have...an absolutely breathtaking hiney," will be so commonplace the popular movie quote may lose most of it’s funny. Not all…because let’s be honest…it’s Anchor Man…it can never lose it’s funny. Basically what I’m trying to say here is: people are going to want to be friend’s with your backside after you put these poses into practice

Sappho Was One of Nine Greek Lyric Poets -Who Were the Others?

Dear Sappho,
I know that Sappho was an Ancient Greek poet from the island of Lesbos. She was one of a canon of nine Greek lyric poets. Lyric poetry is a form of poetry that expresses personal and emotional feelings. In the ancient world, lyric poems were played to the lyre. Today Lyric poems don't have to rhyme or need to be set to music. Most of her poetry, which was well known and greatly admired throughout antiquity, has been lost, or destroyed. What I don't know is the other lyric poets in the cannon.

Swing them hips, gurl!

It’s one of those parts of a woman’s body that some want more of, less of, love, or hate. I happen to be a HUGE fan of hips.  Mine and everyone else’s.  Not just because of how they look on a body, but because when it comes to yoga, it’s the part I love stretching the most (usually to my student’s chagrin, at first)
Why hips?

Exploring Gender: The Interview

I had a job interview today, the first one in about a year. And though I now go by Cael on a day to day basis, I have still not changed my name legally, so I still must legally apply as Mary. In the course of past interviews, it has always been difficult to try to figure out how to dress as my life has progressed. At first, it was easy—though uncomfortable—to put on some tight pin stripe pants and a spaghetti-string tank top under an equally tight button up shirt. Then as I grew more comfortable with myself, I would trade the tight pants for some men’s slacks instead. Little by little, my style changed to reflect my male identity, and I no longer own any women’s clothes.
