Oh yes ! I lost control , my deepest secret is no more !.....

[Angela d'Evial]

Within one week my confidence grew so fast writing with the ladies of this site that I decided to tell my son. He was visiting the weekend for fathers day and my wife away for 2 weeks, I told the whole story of 45 years. All the narrow escapes and the signs like ear piercing and long hair when I was young.
It took about an hour and he was very supportive. He found it a huge task to keep a secret so long and said that telling his mom wil improve the relation and he even offered to support me with telling her. I am so glad and releaved. Hopefully it will go as easy as today next week.

I thank everyone supporting me and giving me the confidence that I needed to do this step.

This is very good to hear indeed. I've always felt that the truth can never hurt you, but a lie will every time...I hope it continues to go well for you.

I agree, to a point, that kids are more open about sexual expression. My daughter had a party at my place (she lives half time with me and half with her mother). She had her boyfriend in a dress, with a bra and makeup. One of the attendees was an openly gay male (unheard of in my high school days), and my daughter got out a dress for him to wear. I did not interfere with any of this, as none of it was too coerced (the boyfriend had agreed to "wear a costume" and the gay kid asked...) Nobody was made fun of or giggled at. To me, it was just kids being kids.

On the other hand, my daughter is not aware of my cross-dressing (I think... I suspect her mother, my ex, suspects). My daughter still asks when I will regrow my mustache, but has not yet noticed my shaved legs.
