Title: Hi, I’m new here!
Post by: Stephk on March 04, 2019, 07:05:16 PM
Hiiiiiiii!
I'm new here! Soooo happy to have found this! I'm 53, and came out to my roommate last year. She's doing her best to accept this. In the meantime, I've been wanting to be a woman my whole life. For as long as I can remember. I'm a veteran in therapy for ptsd, anxiety, and the last year knowing that I can finally live my life true to myself. I've decided that in May of this year, I will start on hormones. I'm going to continue to present as a man for at least a year, maybe longer. I'm excited to start my transition. I did promise myself I would wait 1 full year before starting. In the meantime I do gender bend as far as I can. I love makeup, nail polish, pretty frilly clothes, and bling! I'm looking forward to interacting with you all here!
