I have been struggling with this issue my entire life. It has only been recently that I’ve learned to come to terms with it. What I have figured out is my fem side is a part of my whole self. Can’t have one without the other. My fem side makes me a better person. I am more understanding, don’t fly off the handle, I look at things from different angles before coming to any conclusions.
Dressing is also comforting, relaxing and just feels right. I have gotten a late start with this but I am okay with that. I’m finally doing something. And for the first time in a long time, I feel good.
