Well that was 2016...bring on 2017

    Well what a year 2016 was for me. From being only able to show my stocking clad legs to full facial pics and then taking myself out in to the real world. It has been quite a road of discovery going from fear and worry about showing myself to feeling comfortable in myself to reveal who I am and hopefully dressing appropriately for a woman.

     

    I have more knowledge about who I am. I am sure I do not want to go down the surgery route as I am happy with my body (and my plumbing) and I am also aware of the risks that any medical procedure takes. I would though like to have a more feminine body shape and hair. I am sure that being me is not just a sexual thing and I enjoy transforming myself in to a woman rather than the excitement or gratification of wearing female clothes. I find that as me I feel at peace and relaxed and just happier. I felt in 2016 for the first time in years that I am attractive, and positive about life rather than it being different shades of grey and drudgery.

     

    The hard reality of my life is that I must be the husband and father figure first and because of where I live and work the ability to become full time or even part time, for now, seems to be an impossible dream. It will just be evening dressed and the occasion morning or night out, hopefully though I can extend this and actually feel confident to interact socially and be out.

     

    What I am grateful for is the support from my friends on here that have made things so positive and have encouraged and supported me. Even with the various issues with the change of ownership this site has been a great resource and outlet for me. Without you lot (some close to home some very far away) 2016 would not have been possible and I would like to thank you and wish you the best for the holidays and 2017.

  • Rachel Maxwell Sorry that it took so long for me to respond to your blog entry. I haven't really been at my desk. Hunny, nobody says that if you're TS MtF (or FtM as to be non-exclusionary), that you must take GRS. Well, maybe some countries still require that, but...  more
  • Pauline Smith Hi Sara, All I can say is that you are not alone in living the sort of half way house that you live. Although these days I live mostly as Pauline, I do still do things in boy mode - mainly family events; even though my family have all known now for 20...  more
