I Wolud Love to Crossdress Full Time

Just Do It

By: PinksWoman
Written on February 17th, 2013
My name is Teri now, I used to cross dress but I live as a woman now, full time and have never been happier.  There is no going back for me, he is gone forever and I accept that.  I have come out to my family but they are having a hard time accepting it.  I don;t care about anyone but my children and hope they will understand one day.  It took me 60 years to accept myself, I don't expect they can do it in a few months.  I should have done this years ago, but I was afraid.  I no longer am.  I have found much more acceptance than I expected and it makes me very happy when someone calls me Ma'am. I act, feel and even think like a woman now and love it.  I have also met a man here who loves me and I feel the same about him.  I will join him as his wife one day once I finish my hormone therapy.  To anyone here with the same feelings or dreams, I advise you to just do it.  You will never regret it

      I was young back then and oblivious to the war or the " home coming". Now, I'm infuriated about it and I just don't know what to say except thank you and I'm sorry.

      I'm glad you've been able to get some satisfaction in life now Teri and you so deserve it !

    For me as I expect for you there are some tough times but the fact that you have accepted / no -- Engaged who you are has given you incredible strength & courage which in my case has overcome any and all obstacles that are always before each of us especially during these difficult economic times. I as you have found the public much more accepting than my relatives in which you would think just the opposite. Anyway I congratulate you.

    As always Love and Hugs

      Thank you, Coming out to my family has been the worst, especially my two adult children. They still haven't accepted me. Surprisingly, I have found much more acceptance in the community at large. I belong to a TG veterans support group at the VA hospital, and still shop at the same stores he once did. Everyone call me Teri now and I love it

      Wow that is remarkable. I am studying to be a therapist and have considered working with the VA. I had never even thought about TG issues within that population. It is so enlightening. The DSM differentiates between gender identity, sexual identity and transgender fetishism. If you are comfortable sharing with someone that is probing for inquisitive reasons, which do you feel you fit under? (not that this requires a diagnosis - just for definition sake)

      I would love to chat with you anytime. For me it is a matter of gender identity. Not sexual identity, If I were much younger I would probably opt for surgery, but I don't want to lose time living as a woman to become one. The VA has issued a mandate to support TG veterans, nationwide. I am in Minneapolis, and ours is one of the first programs of it's kind. Soon they will be everywhere. Please feel free to ask me anything

      Oh my... that is so fantastic! Thank you, I will certainly. I'm going to look into doing my internship with the VA here. Maybe I will get to peek in on something new and amazing transforming right in front of me. :)

    I am most interested in that I am awaiting the letter of readiness from a shrink who is taking longer than I had expected to make a decision any information if you also had to get that to proceed with HRT? I also have added you to my circle. Any information will be greatle appreciated. Hugs

      Yes, I have a shrink too who approves of my taking hormones. I am also working one him to approve me for an oerectomy so I can have my testicles removed. I have no need for them any more and I will respond to HRT better if my body stops making testosterone
