Thanks girls for the responses, and keep them coming.
I am curious about how some of you feel that you have changed over the years. I wonder if upbringing and social and familial backgrounds had anything to do with that. For me, I knew I liked to try on girl's clothing from an early age. I knew I was gay when I was 16 (I suspected it before that, but for other reasons...didn't put a label on it) I came out to myself as gay, in my 20s and finally to pretty much everyone in my 30s. These days, I am openly gay and proud to be so.
What's odd, is that I never really ever felt the need to "come out" as a crossdresser/transgender until more recently. Several people knew I crossdressed for many years (sister, boyfriend and a couple other friends) just not the extent of my need to do so. So I never ever felt the dichotomy of personality (dysphoria) that some of us experience. I do find my desire to suppress my feminine side to be rapidly disappearing of late.
For those of you, who find yourselves attracted to men...is it because you feel you are a straight woman? I am a bit curious about that too
thanks all,
Chrissi
