I enjoyed TG fiction on the Internet 25 years ago, and the pre-marriage gender discussion was about TG, not CD.
But, even with advances in gender equality in society, there are obvious benefits to staying where I am.
The most significant is health issues. My wife passed away due to health issues. I've also been taking very good care
of myself for the past 20 years, so I look very good for anyone with salt/pepper hair. My skin looks very good because
of that.
I easily pass as female anyway, so why do anything risky
Then there are the benefits of being a guy, such as the strength to maintain a very large flower garden. GGs often
need help planting large bushes. With patience and cleverness, I can often do stuff bigger guys can't.
It is also nice being able to get out of the house in 15 minutes, either to go to work, or, as I did this morning, see a movie
and eat out afterwards,.
