Introduction from a 1980s-1990s Transitioner

[Barbara Berra]

I don’t know for sure but since I started being an active transitioner in the late 80’s with Estradiol in 1991, F-T as Barbara just after my 38th Birthday and almost 3 years later in 1997 had my GCS & BA 1 month exactly after my birthday (my Rebirth-day).

BTW – I knew at 13 I was transsexual.

Barbara:

Glad to have you with us! Many folks have a lot of worry about transition in that it represents a MAJOR change in ones life. Your being here, many years after your transition, is a data point that life goes on and things get better. Great for others to know that!

I encourage you to complete your Profile page as I believe other members would find it helpful.

Thanks for being here!

Yah ! early 80’s and mid 70’s – I didn’t know who the hell I was back then – became a hermit really – no dating and didn’t try in my teens and basically until 60 in rehab again in 2018 to finally acknowledge I am Trans female a blasted transexual hard core – never liked the word transexual , the word transgender I can deal with – I new young around 5 but just couldn’t explain a natural sense of Self – lost a life time of normalcy staying away from dating all these years , maybe I’m more “A ” sexual , It’s possible I might try the normal as can be at 64 now being post op SRS 2019 – mid to late 70’s thought I had a revolutionary thought maybe surgery could be done – scared the hell out of me so my thinking was I better be a closeted tranvestite back then Ha ! , no way was I going to do such a deed as surgery but I did it with No regrets – I’m dateless , never learned what most take for granted but I’m much better off than before being pre op , anyways it’s done , the options today make me feel ripped off and jealous of a life lost because of biased thinking and I new not to challenge this thinking 50 plus years ago as a child and teenage years wanting the physical body and just enjoy being a girl that I couldn’t be back then  – times have changed now – for the most part I’m accepted and don’t have to hide anymore and just be me .
