I am 74 years old, a retired psychotherapist, in a long term monogamous marriage with a wonderful woman. I began dressing 6 months ago and have found it very fulfilling, if challenging to face my internalized misogyny. I am into cooking, gardening, jazz, and exercise, including yoga, pilates, dance, and weight training. I do not dress publicly where I live but love to go to San Francisco to outwardly express my female self. I've gone solo but it feels easier and more enjoyable to go with friends. I have also found that i love SHOES!
