My first post here, so while I am new, I have visited this site a number of times over the past year and a half.
I'm in my sixth decade of life, so no doubt older than most of you. There are a number of things that I have questioned myself about over the years and never knew for certain why I thought or did them. About a year and a half ago I read an article about a fellow very similar to me that literally stunned me. I had to do a double take to be sure the story was not about me. It caused me to visit a gender therapist who is absolutely convinced that I am TS. It was not what I was expecting to hear. It's been a while since I've been back to see her, but I continue to question who I am. For most transgender people, it seems like they have always known who they were, but I'm still trying to figure it out. It's been difficult for me to accept, probably because I grew up in a conservative family. There are days when I think I really am TS, but then there will be days when I really don't think so. Perhaps the gender spectrum is not totally binary and there can be some overlapping of the genders. If so, maybe that is where I am. I guess if I had a choice I'd like to be able to pass for either gender.
That's enough for a short intro.
Best wishes to all.
