Hello! Just a short introduction. My name is Tina. I am a male to female transsexual. I am 38 years old, and waited far too many years, to become the person I always new I was. Although I wish I went through transition when I was in high-school, I don't regret my male-mode years. I got to sample many different things, and have a good understanding of the male perspective, even though it really doesn't apply to me. I feel like I am finally picking up on my own life, the life I left behind somewhere around 14 or 15.
Puberty at 38 is a unique experience. It is nearly a surreal experience to be in a professional office environment, going about normal "business items", when you feel like you should be at the roller rink, eating pizza, and hanging out with your girlfriends.(What I would imagine I would have done if I was a 15 year old girl) I find that it is often like hearing voices from the past as I find myself making the same exclamations about my hair or developing body, that some of my friends who were girls made when we were in high-school.
I am scheduled to have SRS with Marci Bowers this next year and FFS with Dr. Ousterhout in December. I have been on hormones for a few years and have completed most of the preparatory work.(Counselors, name change, hormones, living as a female, changing of all personal documents, etc.) Most of my online friends are part of this site, so I thought I would also join.
Sincerely,
-Tina-
