Hello Everyone.
My name is Beni - pronounced Benny. I'm 35 and come from Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia. I identify as female, though still in the male form and my current status is Psychic evaluation / Therapy.
I have felt not quite right for about 20 years, I started to do something about it about the age of 21, basic stuff, then I met a lady at age 25 who became my partner for 9 1/2 years . I told her about it right from the beginning and she was sort of ok with it as you'd expect. It caused the occasional conflict, again as you'd expect but, we cared for each other and intimacy was good. I wanted to continue living with her but, as female and she wouldn't allow that. She had some tolerances and things seemed to be ok even though inside I was screaming to get out.
Sadly she passed away four months ago after suffering from a severe long illness and underlying diabetes. As sad as I am, I want to move on with my life as a female while remembering the good times we shared.
So here I am, a proud - not quite yet female ready to share, learn, listen. I have been a lurker (ok I confess
) since as long as Susan's place has been around and it feels good to finally be here
