Well Girls, the title says it all! Four years ago I finally summoned the to courage sign up here!
I’d gone three other times, but backed out before committing myself. It is no exaggeration to say that step changed my life, and for the better.
Before that I was so totally closeted only my wife knew, and I felt it was like my “dirty little secret” but as so many of us are the pull to be femme had been getting stronger and stronger till I started searching online and found this website.
The support and acceptance from everyone here was just astounding. Then shortly after that a couple of girls somewhat local to me reached out and invited me to an informal get together, a local support group for CDs and TGs and for the very first time I went out (other than my own yard) dressed up. The acceptance and support was amazing there too, even though my presentation was pretty terrible, but with help here, and from them I quickly learned!
Now I have the confidence to go out and about fully femme just about anywhere. Of course I use judgement and don’t do silly things, but I’ve learned to dress to blend quite well, and then to NOT blend and show off my glamorous side.
I was recently elected as President of the group which welcomed me so warmly almost four years ago.
All from having the courage to join up here!

Congratulations Amy and Happy CDH Birthday!!
Thats wonderful you got out that front door and your experiences have exceeded your expectations. Thanks for sharing. You are an inspiration!
I’m coming up on my second year here in June and I agree with you completely. CDH really is a great support site for the CD/trans sisterhood. Thank you Vanessa Law and kudos to the moderators who work so hard to make this a safe place. All the girls here are wonderful in helping each other with advice or sharing their inspiring, positive, life experiences. We gain a little more confidence and/or understanding just by reading and sharing like women naturally do.

Congrats, Amy. Have to agree with yo9u about all the wonderful moderators here at CDH. I’ll have 4 years in Sept. Today I only wear men’s clothes at work, even when ‘presenting as male’.
