Hi, I'm Kristina-

I am a mature cross dresser going thru some major changes in my life discovering i'm transgendered. I am glad to have found Susan's place and to be able to fit in with others who have shared my experience and feel wanted and cared about.

I'm a wildly creative individual, a photographer by trade, yet a simple soul. I have a passion for cooking and good food, love to curl up with a good book or listen to music. I love the arts & humanities, but most all i love to shop, for others, for myself, for any occasion. I live and work in NYC.

I hope to get to know you all and would love to hear from you-

Kristina

Welcome Kristina, I am also new to this board and am going through many of the same emotions as you. Hope you can get as much from this board as I have. There are some wounderful careing people here. If you want to just talk you may email me at the address in my profile.

Luv <3 always
Paula

Welcome, Kristina.  I am also a mature (60+) crossdresser.  I grew up in NYC although I have now been living in the midwest for the last 40 years.

Hello kristina,

Welcome to Susans! I am a 48 yr old, am out as a  crossdresser/transvestite and I live in Missouri!

Kansas City to NYC (from yahoo maps) distance: 1166.1 miles approximate travel time: 17 hours 56 mins away and I bet we still have a lot in common!

Welcome,
DebTV

Hi Kristina,

I'm just a baby here 45 and a CD .

I'm from down under and share a similar story.

This is a lovely place with lovely caring people who will  welcome you into their little part of the universe.

So welcome. You'll also find a mountain of information in the WIKI to help you on your journey self discovery.

hi Kristina,

            transgendered souls are more creative and intellegent than the average non t/g so it isnt suprising that you are so creative Kristina. i'm semi-retired and just starting a new life in portland. i'm finding the more you can be yourself, the happier you become. being yourself is sometimes very difficult and there are setbacks at times but the prize of a real life even for just one moment is well worth it. it's great to have you here.

Hi Kristina
Welcome to Susan's Place. I'm sure that ypu'll find that this is a great place to enjoy your journey of self discovery.

Hey Deb, what's the difference between a cross-dresser and a transvestite?

Gina

Wow, i am so touched by your welcome, i dont know what to say-

I have had two terrific days in a row, just being myself & making small self discoveries.
Your welcome just adds to my sense of well being & happiness.

Paula i promise to e mail you as soon as i can. I have a really busy schedule now thru labor day and just can't get onto the board as much as i'd like.

Thanks again everybody, you have no idea how much your acceptence into the tg community means to me. I look forward at getting to know each and everyone of you.

Kristina

hi  gina_taylor,

QuoteHey Deb, what's the difference between a cross-dresser and a transvestite?

Nothing. CD and TV mean the same thing, just Cd sounds less clinical.

Love
DebTV

Hi Kristina,

Welcome to Susan's! I meant to say hi yesterday but got caught up in the day to day grind. Anyway we are here for you and always happy to offer lots of advice. So fix yourself a cup of tea or other relaxing beverage, sit down take your shoes off and set a spell. No requirement on the shoe thing if you'd rather not. 

Good Journey,

Cassie

Hi Kristina:

I am a mature girl too  ( 60 + ) and really enjoy the friendship and help from the ladies in this room. 
I have been dressing now for about 8 or so years, and my femme side is coming out more and more as time goes on.
I am sure you will enjoy the room, and every one i feel looks forward to the input   from many different sources.

Good Luck and Welcome:

Denise

I'm here as some support for my spouse....

But this board is very friendly and understanding no matter what age   Folks here are amazingly helpful and sweet...

Hey Gina and Deb,

I have a friend in the Gay community in Sydney and he is friends with some "trannies" and if they anything to go by there is quite a difference.

Tranvestites down under are more Priscilla Queen of the Desert types very out there and heavy on the makeup. Where CD's seem to be more interested in blending in.

I martial at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gra and you really see the difference there.

That's Shelleys view of the world anyway .

And to think it was a beautiful white crynoline full slip i couldn't resist trying on at age 7 that opened this door and has led my down this winding road of self discovery.

Kristina
