    Getting Older

    As I get older I find that my urges to be Ruth are getting stronger does anyone else feel the same?

    Yes, the older I get, the more I want to live as Karyn. I know it will never happen, but the urge is getting stronger.

    When I turned 50 I found the need to dress became even stronger. Now at 60 I feel my wanting to dress is at its highest peak.

    In a word, YES! As we age our testosterone production diminishes, leaving our estrogen levels proportionately higher. Add to that a history of dressing plus the stresses of male life (not so say that GG's don't have stress, too) and the ingredients are in place.

    I can't really say for sure.. Yeah I'm older and yeah I'm crossdressing more that in the last 3 decades but the resolution of my unknown medical condition is mostly to blame for the reawaking of my hobby..

    So if your telling me that it gets worse that this as I get uber old....... I might as well just sign up for SRS right now!! Lol

    What Tommi said. As we age testosterone level, which was probably at or near the break even point for girls like us, otherwise why would we have had these feelings all this time, tends to go down and the good stuff takes over. Of course there are so many other factors and variables that figure into it as well. Anyway, never a dull moment.

    Count me in. I don't get the chance as often as I'd like, but the desire is much closer to the front of my mind now than it has been in the past.

    Being transgender isn't a lifestyle choice. How you deal with it is.

    Testosterone level !!! funny thing about that my doctor has a thing about it, says that its heathy to have a high reading, so he checks for it in normal blood test. Guess what mine is very high for a man my age. He says it explains my high risk behavior when i was young. He doesn't know about Ruth so what do you think about that Tommi. Can't figure it out.

    There's always an exception! But, you have the history working for you.

    Absolutely. And i agree about the testosterone. That and having had my prostate removed(cancer). I guess that makes it even lower. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise I'm alive, 2 years cancer free and very happy.

    Quite frankly, I've been on fire for the last couple of years. Wow, it's hot in here.

    I also have a high testosterone level but I also have a high DHEA level (a precursor hormone, which can become T or E, as needed). My body appears to be a battle zone. Love is a battlefield, you know & I'm loving where I'm at.
