Blame it on my SO.
She said this evening "You are not a cross dresser. You are woman to me. I wonder what label the world gives you - genetic male, not wanting gender reassignment, all bits functioning as designed, but living 24/7 as a woman and accepted as such". All said warmly and followed by a hug.
I am not one for labels, but she made me think. . . . (actually, she made me into who I am, or more accurately, facilitated me being able to choose how I want to relate to the world).

Actually - being feminine embraced me! . . .

congratulations, you are one very lucky girl.
when in doubt, dress
She definitely has a point! Can't argue with strong logic

Wow! This is terrific.
Mirani,
I want to say I'm jealous but I'm not---I'm just very happy for you and wish that that someday happens to me.
This is great news Mirani. You are so very forttunate to have such a wonderful SO. MY best wishes go out to the both of you.
Congrats and nice photo, great wife. Pardon me, but is Brighton, Mich. ?
What a wonderful story Mirani! I'm very happy for you, and you obviously have a very, very special SO.

Hi Mirani,
I have been following your posts for a while and have enjoyed reading about your experiences. Keep sharing.
What a beautiful comment from your SO. You're both an inspiration to us all!

Do something special for yourself today. You deserve it!
Congrads what a luciky girl
Yes, Congrats Mirani. You and your SO are very special people.
I am tickled pink for you. (wondering where that term originated)
Three cheers for your SO!!!
warmly, Linnea
Sigh . . .
Waking up with a smile on my face . . . .
I think stubble is God's way of reminding me who I am . . and I am lucky enough to hate the stubble (wasted £800 on IPL . . didnt work) but happy to be me.
It was Amanda's birthday a few days ago - I asked her what she wanted . . . she said "a happy you" ... . needless to say she got something much more than that (a gliding lesson . . to see if it matches her dream of what she thinks gliding will be).
Thanks for all the good wishes. I DO realise that I have landed on my feet. Being loved and having someone to love is a wonderful gift.
Amanda chose me - knew who I was before we "got it together". I have found out since that she "had a thing for me" way before I knew. Blamed my underdeveloped female intuition
Anyway - time to get ready for the day. I dont go mad with the makeup anymore. Just some tinted moisturiser, a little smudge of eyeliner, mascara, hint of blusher and my lippy. What a change from the early days! (makes it easier too when I need to have a quick shave and reapply the face if I am working late or we are going out from work for a drink or two with the girls from work).
(Someone asked about Brighton. Its the bottom right corner of England

That's great to hear!
I'm fortunate to be adequately comfortable with myself and confident in my appearance to date while expressing my femininity from the beginning, and typically dating bisexual females assists with overall compatibility as well.

In a perfect world, your story would be common. What makes it extraordinary is that you have a very uncommon wife who loves you...YOU as you are without expectations or limitations. If we could just spread that word.

Aaaah. A situation to die for.

Good for you, glad you can be your true self, and your wife loves you for who you are.
She sound like an amazing woman, but you must be as well to have such a warm relationship. You girls have fun
Find the people who accept you no matter what, leave the ones who do not.
