Around my 64th birthday, I started to have a compulsion to be feminine. This was out of nowhere for me. I did some research and thought (maybe hoped) well maybe I'm a cross dresser. I experimented a bit with makeup and underdressing. I found a makeover /photo service reasonably closeΒ to me and worked up the courage to have a makeover. I still don't know how I had the courage to get dressed and full makeupΒ then have pictures taken in front of people I had never met. After selecting outfits and having the full makeover, I get dressed for the first photo session. I saw myself in the mirror the first time being fully dressed and knew right there I was meant to be a woman.
I have been doubting and denying myself for over a year but recently came out to myself that what I felt is the truth. I don't know where the journey goes from here. I have been married for 41 years to the most wonderful person I have ever known and I am struggling with the future.
I am Miranda and I am a trans woman, so proud to be here. I hope to share the ups and downs of this journey with you.
I started on CDH so you may have seen some of my posts.
Affectionately,
Miranda

Greetings Miranda.
Welcome. Read your bio. We are the same age, though I have been aware of my gender incongruity since I was 5. I am still not sure where it will go from here. Here is a good place to get guidance from those who have gone before.
