Title: Well hello!
Post by: OhAmanda on August 11, 2018, 11:10:06 AM
What fresh new heaven is this?  :)

My name is Amanda.  I'm 47 and eagerly awaiting my hormone readiness assessment in September. 

My first experience?  I was 5, there was a glass with a silhouette of a Playboy bunny in stockings, and a pair of my mother's stockings under the bathroom sink.  I locked the door, and have been hooked ever since!  :laugh:

What a wonderful resource this forum has been for me; I am so grateful for everyone sharing their stories, they have had a profound effect on me.  What I didn't expect was to see so many here near my age who look so fabulous and whose stories are so inspiring.

Hi Amanda,
I am reminded of what happened when I was eight.  That was when my mother realised that I thought that girls had willies and when I finally realised that I was definitely physically a boy.

A few months later in 1964, a Playboy magazine appeared in the spare room with my toys.  For many years, I presumed that it had been left there by mistake but it occurs to me now that it was probably my parents' idea of sex education.  I didn't learn much from a 1964 edition but I did find it fascinating.
