Hi all -- I am Julie or Julieanne (Jilieanne was actually a typo but it got me registered. Sigh
)
I'm looking for a place that is good for me and where I might be able to help others (as they help me). I am trying to figure out who and what I am after my wife's death 2 1/2 years ago (married for 33 years and very much in love). Crossdressing has always been a part of my life; my wife accepted it with agreed upon limits, and I am out to my grown kids and their spouses. (my daughter and daughter-in-law have been with me dressed). I am pretty much gender neutral with both socially defined masculine and feminine traits. I consider being called maternal to be a very high compliment.
I'm not sure what I'm looking for here but I do know that my isolation over the past couple of years is not healthy. There is a wonderful Tri-Ess chapter in the area, and I did go out with them once, but I'm not very socially at this time. I dress most nights to some extent but do not go out with frillies under. I've done it, and the risk is more than I want -- I work with college students and my crossdressing would put up unnecessary barriers.
I don't know the accepted lingo here, so I'll just say "hello ladies" with the hope that I haven't crossed any lines.
Hugs, Julie
