I'm a transgender girl from California and I am over 21 and I'm still a student, seriously ! I first knew I was female inside at age 4 and have kept my true self suppressed. Thank you for all your kindness and visits. My favorite quote is "Celebrate femininity forever !"

Love and hugs to you all.

P/S. Some say femininity is nurturing, life-giving, creativity, gentleness, empathy, sensitivity and openness.

P/S. Friends can make you happy and sad. There are many different transgenders; some are born, some are forced and some by choice; you have to know the difference. Not all transgenders are gay, lesbian or bi, but we are united. Women dressed as men in the news: Society prejudice.

P/S. "Our chromosomes don't tell us who we are." quote from Dr. Arlene Baratz, Pittsburgh breast radiologist.

P/S. I use the camera timer for my pics. I'm too shy to ask anyone else. I'm not a photographer, just a Tgirl who loves nature.

P/S. All my artwork here is done with a mouse, keyboard and my own original material. I hope to buy a Cintiq 21 ux someday for finer detailed work.

P/S. If you plan on posing outdoors, just be a little careful my sisters and brothers, and listen to your intuition. Also, I don't claim any pose so have fun posing in nature. My sis, Gabrielle, has more advice at: www.mycdlife.com/

P/S. I am in the class 4 COGIATI group. Curious to know your COGIATI Combined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory score ? Click on: transsexual.org/cogiati_english.html

P/S. They say you're a transgender if your elbows bend outwards. Mine do. To find out more : Click Here

    "I've never written a testimonial before, but I'm so moved by your stunning originality and imaginative fusion of words and imagery Phyllis, that I wanted you to know how valuable you are to the Flickr community. I think it's a common trait for transgirls to sometimes feel divorced from the world around us, but the way you place yourself in Nature's vistas with such a sure sense of belonging - every bit as much an element of the natural world as a raindrop or firefly - really makes my heart sing. Nymph, poet, dreamer, artist, philosopher and model - now you can add muse to that list. You're an inspiration in more ways than one. Thank you. Andie x"

    "Phyllis
    You immersed in excellence in all your photos. I can tell you that you are one of the few photographers that capture the natural beauty. In all your photos, you write the history of each. Watching them, I see someone with inner and outer beauty. You are a wonderful person.
    Keep up the fantastic work you do for us!"

    "Phyllis is a perfect example of how ALL friends should be on Flickr. She never fails to brighten my day, either through her wonderful photos, or by simply stopping by and leaving a heartfelt comment on one of mine. And that's what Flickr and friendship is all about!"

    "I am here to tell anyone that doesn't know Phillis that she is a special human being. She is as beautiful and unique as the artwork she shares with us all. She looks for the good in everyone which in itself is great quality! If you are reading this you are already aware of all this. I cherish her but more than that I cherish her friendship............Hugs Francy"

    "Phyllis is unique - in at least three different ways.

    Firstly, Phyllis is a gorgeous girl. She is a natural model with wonderful dress sense, and a superbly elegant and expressive way of posing for the camera. She is one of the most beautiful girls posting on Flickr.

    Secondly, Phyllis is a photographer and creative artist of breathtaking vision and imaginative range. Every photograph she posts is a favourite of mine. She is lifting the art of the t-girl self portrait into a higher sphere. I am convinced that her work will be discovered and internationally recognised before too long, and that we will see it hanging on gallery walls worldwide.

    Finally, Phyllis has a truly angelic spirit about her. Her art and her personality illuminate our world. She promotes greater social and environmental awareness. She spreads love and humanity all around, with her gentle but provocative art and her wonderful personality.

    It is a true privilege to have Phyllis as my friend. I can't wait to see what she will do in the future!"

    "You only get to write your first testimonial once.[ that's probably why they call it the first.] I am honored to write mine to you Phyllis, I've decided not to mention your stunning good looks and your "cutting edge" fashion sense that is second to none. I am also not going to mention your superb photography talents and great sense of humor, for anyone who has viewed your photos already knows this. What endears me most to you sis is that you care, you love nature and animals and can find the beauty in things that most people take for granted these days. You have a beautiful spirit my sister, you ALWAYS brighten my day, and yes, I am with you in celebrating femininity forever my friend. Big hugs. Val."
