In this episode, Savannah asks Julie the most pertinent question you can ask another human being ... 'Why'? Why do men have a need to present in a feminine way? Why must they continue to go against their masculine biology? The act of asking questions that start with 'why' tend to come across as judgmental or critical.

Why DO crossdressing men prefer to dress in private, even after their partners show them support?

In this episode, Savannah shares her experiences with the wonderful ladies of a recent Atlanta girls' weekend. Part of what Savannah discovered was more confidence to simply be herself around others. Beyond that, she realized that oftentimes, and most amazingly, crossdressing as a woman is just only one of many colorful and delightful commonalities that sisters can share. We come for the crossdressing, we stay for the sisterhood. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

Recorded Aug 10, 2024. On this episode of the Bill Alexander Show, Bill talks with Savannah Hauk. Savannah is a life-long crossdresser who began experimenting with feminine clothing at the age of 6-years-old, I grew up with the inherent understanding I was different than the other kids in the neighborhood. I grew up without the ability to easily find information about who I might be. It was only after moving to New York City in 1996 that Savannah was fully accepted, discovered and developed. Becoming more involved in the local CD community on Long Island allowed me to flourish before a move to the Bible-belt of Upstate of South Carolina broadened my involvement with the greater LGBTQ+ community and created the need for more visibility and advocacy.I have written two non-fiction books, one focused on crossdressers and their significant ones (“Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal”) and the other focused on a Crossdresser's personal development (“Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity”).I also speak at transgender and LGBTQ+ conferences, such as the Keystone Transgender Conference in Harrisburg, PA and NewYorkComingOut Transgender Conference in Manhattan, NY. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-bill-alexander-show/support

In this episode, Savannah asks Julie about examples of crossdressing men having to take on additional exchanges when it comes to their gender diversity, from storage units to store their attire to having to lease or rent a completely different residence in order to affect their feminine presentation. When Julie saw the residence as a possible "girls' pad" where the crossdresser can feel free from judgment, Savannah countered with the fact that the partner was being forced to compromise their authenticity in a geographically different and expensive "closet" in order to keep the peace at home. Savannah and Julie chat about the pros and cons, and compromises and sacrifices all partners make when it comes to being or having a gender diverse partner. ----- 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 asks Julie the question, "To tuck, or not to tuck. That is the question." For years, tucking our maleness so that we can affect a smooth front area has been paramount. There are gaffs, compression undies, tape, and various methods for achieving a smooth crotch ... from mild to wild. Do we need to tuck? Some clothes require it to avoid distraction and to provide personal safety and passibility. Some clothes don't require it to be done. Some social media trans influencers show off what god gave them as well as what man provided as aftermarket accessories. In this new millennium, will we get away from tucking things away in order to be accepted and to fit in? Only tuck ... i mean. time will tell. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Julie reads Savannah a letter from a listener who asks the duo to discuss the dynamics and possible resources for a gender diverse husband who partially shares their femininity with their wife and young children. What might the family be thinking? What resources are out there to help in the 'transition' from fully masculine husband to sometimes feminized spouse? How can one know how their dressing may affect their wife and children?

In this episode, Savannah asks Julie "why do we hunt for unicorns" for partners. Why do we assume that because we crossdress it would take a special woman or partner to love us unconditionally? The label of being a rare and mythical creature in this regard seems to be both a compliment and an insult at the same time. By assuming that it would take a 'unicorn' to love us, we are saying that it takes a special breed of human being to love somebody like us, AND that we are somewhat unlovable.

In this episode, Savannah tells Julie about trying on a pair of sexy panties. In this story, Savannah was suddenly caught in the throes of shame, self0doubt, lack of confidence, fear of judgment, and putting those panties back in the drawer in favor of something more basic. What happens when long-forgotten experiences from earlier in the relationship reverts to a sudden attack of PTSD? In this case, Savannah did some self-analysis, discovered the root of the issue, and was able to have a productive conversation with Judy about how she felt. Then, the next day, those sexy panties weren't the cause of fear, but of being fantastic. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Julie brings a recent event to Savannah and to the conversation. While on a shopping trip, a sparkly denim jacket called out to Julie several times, but she hesitated to commit to the purchase. After some internal dialogue, she decided to buy it. Instead of worrying about what others may think or say about the jacket to be worn at a teachers' event, and instead of worrying about tying herself to a specific expected elevated, filled with pizzazz look, Julie listened to that young voice asking to be heard and considered. Sometimes, our inner voices are not just about tantrums and screaming and fear. Sometimes, they just want to be heard and considered. And, sometimes, they are are warranted and right. ----- 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 talk about the 2024 Paris Olympics and the social media mania and outcry about its opening ceremonies, the Turkish shootist Yusef Dikeç, and the insane amount of animosity aimed toward Algerian female boxer, Imane Khelif. From being labeled transgender and unfit to compete with the other women boxers, to rehashing a previous IBA decision to disqualify her for allegedly possessing an XY chromosome, to being described as having DSD (Differences of Sexual Development), the world is already divided and vocal on the this specific issue of a person's gender. ----- 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 asks Judy what she has learned after being with a queer person for a decade. From living a life with a vague understanding of gays and drag queens in NYC, Judy was thrust into the LGBTQIA+ community once she said 'yes' to dating a crossdresser. After 10 years, Judy has come to understand that there is so much openness, acceptance, and diversity to be found beyond the heteronormative binary. And, she has also found an unexpected accepting family that accepts her as she is. ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Julie reads a direct message from a woman named Juni, who shared her appreciation of a previous episode, 'Passing Milestones', which focused on the fact that gender diverse people tend to come out to loved one and close confidents more than once. She also shared that Julie and Savannah didn't speak much about sharing with one's children or the fact that some reveals don't have a deep rejection or wondrous celebration ... there is simply serene acceptance. What does one do when they have braced for the worst and hoped for the best; and find simple loving acceptance? ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Julie reads a Facebook post from a lovely listener who spoke beautifully about the dating scene for a transwoman over 50-years-old and divorced after 30 years of marriage. The dating scene is different. The way to find your One is different. And, above all else, have any of us found that well of love for ourselves that will help radiant that feeling out to others like a beacon of light that will attract the perfect mate? ----- 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 shares with Julie an odd experience about trying on Shein dresses with Judy looking on as a spectator. When Judy offered her opinions about the dresses once tried on, Savannah found herself feeling a bit sad. The reason?

Although I do live a dual life when it comes to colleagues, co-workers, and friends, I am an open book to the right people. The author of Living with crossdressing - the new normal, discusses more about her life than many people do with whom she interacts with on a daily basis.Savannah is from Detroit, Michigan, where the climate of acceptability in the 80s and 90s was less than stellar for crossdressers and other transgender folks. Twenty years ago, she moved to the big city of Manhattan Island for work-related reasons and discovered a world (or a couple of boroughs) where alternative lifestyles were so much more socially acceptable. Eventually, Savannah moved out onto Long Island to live, work, love and explore both my masculinity and femininity. Now, she currently lives in a new regional culture of the Upstate of South Carolina.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/no-limits-podcast--5110273/support.

In this episode, Savannah finds herself gushing to Julie about meeting somebody famous. That famous somebody had reached out to Savannah because they feel Savannah is also 'famous' in the community and is the right individual to confide in and get advice about their gender authenticity.

In this episode, Savannah and Julie discuss one of their favorite supporters and friends, Crystal aka 'Jellyfish'. This time around, Crystal shared with Savannah an encounter where she spoke to a cousin who not only admitted that they used to dress up in feminine clothes but also thought they 'were a girl'. Now, thought, through the Word of God, this cousin now feels saved from their feminine afflictions and feels that Crystal is headed to hell and eternal damnation.

In this episode, Savannah shares with Julie her experience of having a facial while dressed as Savannah. Not only was Savannah dressed for her first facial, but also traveled to the appointment without any makeup. Afterward, Savannah took a pic of herself after the facial and without makeup, realizing that she still saw Savannah staring back at her from the phone. Gender dysphoria was super low and seeing her femininity (without makeup) was a all-time high. ----- 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 tells Julie about two specific events that happened a week apart but included the same life lesson. The first was an author event that Savannah (as Chuck) was a part of. The second was a conversation with one of Chuck's work colleague that included the fact that the coworker found Savannah Hauk on social media and realized 'he' was also a 'she'! In both cases, Chuck and Savannah's worlds had suddenly collided into a bigger universe where both sides of our intrepid heroine's gender was on side-by-side display! ----- 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 asks Judy the question, "Why do women like to wear their partner's clothes? And, why is that okay and MTF crossdressing isn't?" Well, it wasn't that pointed or loaded a question, but it does raise the question of why there are completely common-place and socially accepted manner of quote-unquote crossdressing while those of us who are creating feminine personas are still considered outsiders. Savannah and Judy explore the fabric of Americana where women have been totally accepting wearing their male partner's clothing, and explore why it is that women tend to do it in the first place. Lastly, can correlations be built between what the women do and how men crossdress as women? Let's listen and find out!

In this episode, Julie asks Savannah if she wants to chat about that often-misunderstood, a considered-fringed sub-culture called furries (or fur-dom, or the furry lifestyle). Why do people gravitate to the Furry culture? How did it start? What are the benefits and disadvantages within the community? Is it all fetish and sex?

What happens when you've been fighting for your true identity your entire life and you make a mental or written plan to finally take all the steps needed to get there.

In this episode, Savannah asks Julie why many gender diverse individuals may feel their wardrobe and style has toned down since they first started their journey. From gaining a measure of growing maturity that comes from a truncated second feminine puberty, to normalizing what was once a bedroom fetish to finding outfits more appropriate for a trip to the grocery or coffee house, to slowly gaining practical experience just by the getting out into the world. Whether one finds their way alone or with the help from den mothers, family members or friends, all of us are simply finding what 'suits' us best. ----- 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 ad Julie read listener responses to a Julie social media post asking about their most memorable euphoric feminine moments. Plenty of ladies replied! Thanks! From that first spinning reveal in a makeup artist's chair to the donning of the wig to complete a feminine persona, to catching the attention of an admirer that might want to buy a lovely lady a drink or spin her around the dance floor, to making the internal realization that they are indeed a 'pretty woman', there are numerous ways to come into one's feminine euphoria. ----- 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 discuss a topic that fascinated Savannah from Keystone. Namely, the fact that a young person with trans experience attended Savannah's workshop with the express notion of learning more about what 'crossdressing' means. With Savannah's mind blown, she sits down with Julie to better understand the place of 'crossdressers' within the new trans generations. From a century of the label being closeted to the possibility of sliding into obscurity in the 21st Century, anything and everything is still possible. ----- 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 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?

In this episode, Savannah records from a secret conference center location at the Harrisburg Hilton during the 2024 Keystone Conference, bringing with her a name from the 2023 conference... Panda! Violet, aka "Panda" is the Significant One of her lovely gender diverse partner Catrina. Both of them sit down and tell the story of their journey of over 30 years together, splashing in great anecdotes and wisdom as they go. Enjoy this special episode! ----- SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“. While both focus on the male-to-female (mtf) crossdresser, “Defining a New Normal” delves into crossdressing and relationships and “Discovering Your True Identity” looks at the individual crossdressing journey. Her latest achievements are two TEDx Talks, one entitled "Demystifying the Crossdressing Experience" and the other "13 Milliseconds: First Impressions of Gender Expression". Savannah is a male-to-female dual-gender crossdresser who is visible in the Upstate of South Carolina, active in local groups and advocating as a public speaker at LGBTQ+ conferences and workshops across the United States. At the moment, Savannah is working on more books, blogs, and projects focused on letting every crossdresser–young and mature–find their own confidence, expression, identity and voice.
