I want to start off by saying that thank you to all of the people whose stories I have been reading these past two weeks. I knew hypothetically that this community was out there, it was great to wade in.
I am 49. Back when I was 10 I tried on my mother’s swimsuit and was fascinated by how it felt and how I looked. That feeling stuck with me. I did all of the normal guy stuff — sports, dating girls — but never felt like a one of the dudes and preferred shopping with my female friends. As an adult I married, had kids, got divorced, and moved across the country when I became an empty-nester.
As an adult I have only one male friend, the friends who I go out with, travel with, and otherwise connect with are women. I felt like I fit in with these friends. Then three years ago my employer had everyone go through gender spectrum training — I am an ENTJ who likes to classify things, and for the first time I saw where I fit in. It was powerful being able to name it, trans female expressing as male, even though I did not talk to anyone about how I felt.
Then two weeks ago I got one of those Kohl’s coupons in the mail and looking at the front thought “oh what a fun looking dress.” I guess maybe the time had come for me, because it finally dawned that I could get clothes online! I found this site and got a lot of good advice on sizing. I like Vera Wang, with my one kid away from the weekend, I am spending time around the house in my charcoal grey chemise.
So thanks to all of you here, this is the first time that I talked about this part of my life with anyone — I was happy to find this safe place. Sabina
