Well, I have no idea where to start. I was in high school when I began to realize that something wasn't working for me. I had an interest in the cheerleaders but, not as most of the football players did, I wanted to be like them. I joined the pep club which was all female. First embarrasing moment, wearing a corsage for the homecoming parade, marching right along with all the other ladies. Of course, the hair, who didn't want a Farrah hair style back then (guess I am really dating myself now, lol). After the parade incident, I kept to myself, worked to show "how manly" I was. I believe my mother figured out I was trying out her clothes but not for a sex thing, I just liked the way I looked and felt. Then I did what typically happens, I denied that I even felt this way. I was given the false impression that cross dressers or trans-sexuals were really just gay. So, I buried my female feelings and moved on. I have struggled with my feelings for years, many years now, and have started exploring them yet, again recently. I realize that it still isn't about sexual tensions or gratification. It is about who I am. I, maybe mistakenly, feel that hormones and other treatments may be something that I can't do because of my age but, at least I am starting to accept who I am. My name, well funny thing that my mother told me once that had I been a girl at birth, this would have been my name. So why not use it for my female person? Well that is all for now. Feel free to drop me a line and I will be sure to read all there is here and get to know my new girlfriends.
