Older Girls Only: Women You Never Dreamed You Look as Good as or Better Than

[melissa90299]

I never dreamed I would look better than both of my younger sisters for one. As far as famous people go, I never dreamed I would look as good/better than Kathleen Turner or Linda Ronstadt. Now in KAthy's defense, she has been playing the frumpy Martha in "Virginia Woolf" (she was riveting in a performance here recently)





Of course, a lot of women let themselves go in their fifties, so there is a big advantage to women who take care of themselves.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I'm ready to admit I haven't got to any credable stage that could compare to celebraties or even the girl who lives next door...

[Lacey Lynne]

I'm so happy for you, Hun!  Hugs!

[Naturally Blonde]

I agree with Berliegh and my expectations were higher than the reality of the situation.

You should meet the girl next door to me!

I showed my girlfriend a video of my younger sister. She told me I'm much prettier and my build is much more feminine than my sister's. In comparison to me, she saw my sister as more masculine and not very attractive. (Of course, she loves me, so she's disposed to see me in a positive light.) This is an interesting reversal because when we were young, this sister was always the pretty one of the family.

Funny you should mention that Pauline.. I've been on HRT for well over 10 years and recently I had a bone density scan and I was very surprised by the results. They came back the same as a gernetic female and I was akso told that my bones were the same as someone 12 years younger than my age. So for me HRT has improved my overall health.

I don't think I'll win any beauty contests. But I do get compliments about looking younger than I am and being pretty. My one older sister is still the prettiest though. Prob. always will be. There are loads of women around here (where I live) that I look better than.    There are also loads of women I could only wish to be as pretty as. 

Virginia sighs and wishes for younger days.....

I was tolded many years ago as I wasn't a ''genetic female'' and on estrogen I had a high risk of developing ostroprosis in later life, I have a bone density scan about every 2years and make sure I have calcium in my diet, if I did develope ostroprosis, I still have no regrets, estrogen  and surgery has turn me into a pretty woman, these days I'd never pass as a male, just an ordinary female, I do like to be pretty, theres no girl who doesn't.

You must look great!  I think us older newly minted women have an advantage somehow - I don't exactly know why.  Perhaps a healthy life style is promoted with the beginning of HRT or something.  I think I look about age 50 and I am 61.

[Nigella]

I think being told you look younger than your age comes with the territory for older TS. I'm more often than not told that I look ten years younger than I am and people don't believe me when I say I am 50. As if a woman would lie about their age, lol.

Any way perhaps off the topic a bit but never really been told I look like some celebrity and no sisters to be compared to.

Well I have the same body style as Debra Heary (Blondie) does (now that is). But I'm back on the bicycle now and hope to start loosing weight .  Plus I got complimented at a christmas party as to how good I looked even over GG's there.  That was a head rush.

Still don't look as good as Carla Bissi (Alice) my favourite super hot 50+ year old!

I really don't have any allusions of looking as good or better than any particular female.  I have quite a way to go in my transition.  I just want my life.  I'd rather be an ugly woman than a half-way decent looking man.

After nine years on HRT and femminization I have had friends guess my age ten years younger then I am.

Whoa, your hair is so big in that newer picture. My hair is crazy poofy, too. I wish I were comfortable posting a picture of myself to show you a comparison shot.

[Genevieve Swann]

You look fantastic! That photo makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over.

[cindybc]

Hi Luna, email it to me, you got my curiosity now. The hair is crimped otherwise it's just mostly straight.
