Hi I'm Elizabeth! You can call me 'Liz'. I always knew I should've been born a girl. I got caught wearing women's clothes when I was 4. I started actively crossdressing when I was 11. I got caught several times in my teens and in adulthood. I struggled with gender issues for decades. Self-loathing and mental trauma were a big part of my life. I came to terms with who I am in 2014. Then I got into therapy and worked on my issues for a few years. By 2019 I knew I had to meet other girls like me. That's when I stumbled upon CDH. The girls I met changed my life. Many of them are now chosen family. And my chosen family is still growing. In 2021 I realized transition was my only option for a happy life. I started HRT in September. I've been living full time since June 2022. I completed a legal name & gender change in May 2024. Gender confirmation surgery is likely. Today I live as my authentic self. Life has never been better. I love to chat and socialize with girls like me. This community means everything to me. Trans is beautiful. It's my hope that every one of us finds their happy place, wherever that may be. Professionally, I work in Information Technology Want to know more?? DM me.

The satisfaction of contentment! Gotta love it! 🥰
Finding our happy place is why we’re here, right? I’ve been fortunate in that regard. I’ve enjoyed life more in the last 5+ years than the previous 30. That’s why there’s usually a grin on my face!
Liz, I’ve seen you in person glammed up a bit (in April at Amanda‘s get together). And I’ve seen you with your “everyday” look. And the beautiful woman that you are always shines through. Yes, it shines brighter after a magnificent makeover. But even with bedhead, minimal makeup, or whatever — this photo is a testament to the fact that, at your core, you are a very lovely lady.
Thank you Angela. The girl I see in the mirror looks way better and is much happier than the old me. I can’t deny that. CDH helped a lot. HRT too.
I understand of how you want to be glammed up. And you think you look better then. I can say that a part of me likes this photo and view of you better, because it is real. You are an attractive woman, and the makeup and brushed hair, etc, help. I get it. But you still look wonderful, IMO. And I’d steal that necklace in a heartbeat! Thanks for posting this picture Liz.
Thanks Michelle! Yes, a glam makeover is incredibly affirming. But I don’t look like that most days. I don’t usually have the time or desire to fuss that much over my appearance. I like to post photos like this because they’re real. I don’t need fancy clothes and a painted face to be happy. And yes, I’m happy most of the time.
