My hypothesis fits for me as a late-onset of gender self-realisation due to repressions caused by life situations and shaping events and epochs. I wanted to see if folks would respond with "i'm late-onset but happy with cross-dressing", whether others would respond with "I'm late-onset and wondering if I'm TS", and any other variations. If I'd been asked 10 months ago I'd have replied the former, now I'd say I know I'm TS; time allows us to change or to allow more to emerge of the true self.
