Hi.   I'm Lena from Houston.   I'm a long time lurker,  first time poster. 


I'm almost 50 and currently living in Houston after growing up in the Midwest. 

I have always felt gender noon-conforming but I'm not ready to say I'm a trans-woman yet.   I'm not sure of my gender but I'm sure that I enjoy being in touch with my feminine side.   I've always dressed when I could since a very young age.   I thought I was "just" a cd but the older I get,  the more I recognize that it's more than dressing.

Anyway,  I'm here and I'll be doing more lurking but probably start commenting more.

Thanks for having me.

Hi Lena,

  I'm Laurie, and I know that story. It was mine for more than 60 years. Please let me say, Welcome To Susan's Place! Come on in and take a good look around. I'll add some links and information below that can help you get more out of our site. Please take time to become familiar with them especially the RED one as we are always getting questions that are answered there.

Hi Lena

Welcome to the forum, it's certainly a great place to vent and have a look around to read other peoples stories and have a good think about our own lives.

I wish you the best.

Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸
