Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Im 40 and I have always wanted to be a girl.

Im sure its the same story over again....but since I first saw the TV show Real People back in the 70s with a segment on sex change. I thought WOW, they can do that! Of course, Ive been afraid to come out and have secretely been a "girl" in most of my private time.

Fear of "passing" is what has kept me inside, Im a large man. But I do make a somewhat cute "big girl".

Also I live in a area of redneck thought process and most would be, I believe, appaled by the thought.
My last few lovers...females...have all known and my current wife loves the idea. I guess I wish I could have transitioned early in life and made it easier.

Thanks for listening! :)

Not really looking for advice, just wanted to say Hi and write something since I have been reading here for a while, now.

Most of my life has been hell until I realized why....now its all good. Just wish I wouldve done something sooner....

Thats advice for those young people thinking about it. Just do it. Im not saying you are ever too old...I just think if your younger...go for it...it will most likely be easier.

Hi Rita,

Welcome to our little family. Over 1800 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion. Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams.  Ask questions and seek answers.  Give and receive advice.

But remember we are family here, your family now.  And it is always nice to have another sister.

Janet
