Hello everyone,
I am a "Two Spirit" person living in the Sierra Nevada
Mountains of Northern California.
My gender confusion started fairly early. Most of my
early years were spent in the company of female relatives and I began to crossdress when I was 10.
By the time I entered puberty I was convinced that there had been a mistake and I was really supposed
to be a girl.
My parents were at a complete loss when I repeatedly
was caught "borrowing" my mother's clothes and
just hoped I would outgrow my problem.
Needless to say, life has always been complicated as I attempt to balance my true feelings about myself in a "normal" life.
Recently my wife decided to empty my recycle bin for me and discovered several photos and stories I was clearing from my documents.
My job takes me away from home most of the time and I confine my "dressing" to evenings alone in my hotel rooms. I am really dreading the reception I will receive when I return home from my latest trip.
This afternoon I spent several hours hiking on the slopes of Mt. Shasta. I'm so tired of being depressed most of the time. I want to be able to express myself and enjoy clothing and activities that interest me. I am so curious about so many things! My time on the mountain convinced me that I need to reach out, so here I am.
I look forward to meeting you all and exchanging ideas and impressions, and hopefully, in making some friends who understand.
