I am approaching 60 and although I am rather passable enfemme,I find myself being increasingly less concerned about what others see. I'm just a feminine person enjoying a day out and about as far as I am conerned. By the way older mature ladies rock! No one trips my trigger like Helen Mirren!
[SIZE="3"]I very much agree with Emily01 about looking much younger when enfemme. I was at a transgender meet last week and a couple of young new members who I had not met, commented how young I looked and would not believe them when I told them my age.
Did'nt some one say " age is a thing of the mind " or something like that.
Go for it girl, your only young twice.

Im 71 and enjoy dressing. What age do I look?
Amen, sister! And when I dress my (75%) gender I feel years younger. I should get an Rx from my doctor to take to the shops.Quote:

Samantha48328,
Hon for 71 you look great, now I know I'm not the only who is young and spry:battingeyelashes:
Well...getting old certainly is a bummer ..most of you seem to think that being over 50 ; I shouldn't be wearing black PVC mini skirts and 6" high heels then ? LOL:D
...because not only do we have a far better sense of who we are compared to when we were younger, we also tend to care less and less about what others may think in the event that we get "read". Whether it's the "grumpy old man" syndrome kicking in or we are simply becoming as sassy and as irreverent as the "Golden Girls" on television used to be is hard to say, but it is incredibly liberating!
Age has its other benefits as well, and not only do we tend to shrink a bit as we get older (I've lost about 3/4"), but our feet also get a bit smaller on average (down from a Size 10 to a Size 9 for me), which brings most of us closer to the size range of the average GG's and thereby enhances our passability. Our beards also get increasingly gray or white as we get older, making the dreaded "blue shadow" a thing of the past, and I now find myself able to get away with minimal make up if I want to. Of course, that also means that we must become more aware of those areas of our bodies that get MORE hair with age such as our noses, ears, and eyebrows, and to keep these trimmed at all times
I'm also going to go out on a limb here and perhaps draw the unfettered ire of some of the GG's on this forum:heehee:, but as aging males, it's a known fact that we also don't need to worry about cellulite, sagging breasts, "bat-wings", bunions, and hammer toes the way they do.
And just like many other CD's here have discovered, "Leslie" looks a good 5 -10 years younger that her male counterpart when she is all dressed up and made up. Whether or not it's the stylish clothes together with the make up or the mere fact that "she" just radiates that much more happiness and contentment in girl mode is hard to say, but dressing up just seems to melt away the years along with the day-to-day stress.
Well, I have to tell you, I am over 80 and have been told I don't look a day over 60. I still wear five-inch heels on occasion and usually pass with no problem. I agree with what others have said. The older we get the easier it can be to "pass".
I didn't dress for years and when I did start again, I couldn't believe how much more feminine I looked at an older age.
Just go for it and don't worry what anyone thinks. At my age, I don't.
