Hi, I’m 62, I’ll be 63 in October. I started dressing in women’s clothes almost 10 yrs ago. Just after my wife’s funeral I was sorting and boxing her clothes, 3 boxes, to female friends, to donate and rags&trash. I never knew she had so many! I was almost halfway through her hanging clothes and the next one was a dress that she looked Fantastic in. I decided to hold it up in front of me and looked in the mirror and thought I would look good in this! I put it on and thought This isn’t right! I took it off and then stripped naked, put on her panties, stockings, garter belt, bra and filled it with My socks then put the dress back on and as soon as I looked in the mirror, I was bigger and harder than I’d ever been. I dumped out the boxes and spent the next few days trying on everything she had and if it fit, then I decided if I would wear it or not.

Understanding that our gender identity may be different from what we originally thought is not an easy thing to do. It goes against the grain of just about everything that we have been told. You have a start, but where that may lead is an unknown. For some, dressing is enough. Others need to be in the world from a feminine perspective. Still others need to transition. It all depends upon where all this sits for you.
Many here have found that working with a therapist is helpful. There’s a lot of fear, shame and guilt that happens for many transgender folks and it helps to find ways of dealing with those things. Also, understanding what’s going on with you will be useful for figuring out what you need to do going forward. However, it is important to find a therapist who is experienced in gender issues. Not everyone is.
So, a couple of housekeeping things:
