| Lauren Patrice Gable 2017 Before gender affirmation surgery |
How different life would have been, had I been able to have gender affirmation surgery when I was young.
Many people conduct their male to female transition when they are thirty.
Of course, for me, growing up in the 1980s, this would not have been possible.
I know transitioning from male to female after 49 might be intimidating but it ended up being simple for me. As a grown-up with no living relatives, I was free to choose my own path.
Transitioning after 49 was easier for me because my two long term relationships with women had been over by 2013.
When you are older, you need to look like a woman from the beginning. However, that was not a problem for me since I had cross-dressed for twenty-five years and lived as a woman for four years in Burbank before my gender affirmation surgery.
I never went in for sexy clothes because I wanted to be a real woman.
Soon, it would be true.
