I hated being male back in the day

I did not fit in the world as a man. I detested being male and aspired to somehow become female with the wave of a magic wand. 

On 2018, after my gender affirmation surgery, I began my life as a woman after 49 years as a man.

Now I am happy to look like an adult female. It's magnificent. It is delightful to wake up and realize I am female.

One day after my 50th birthday, I began working again. As a woman.

I love the emotive freedom I can express as a woman. I smile a lot more. I love my clothes, my shoes, my bare legs, and my breasts. I love being me. There is nothing immoral about desiring to be an adult female.

I can be satisfied and contented because of my choice to live as the gender I am.  

I am a woman. I am so happy.

Being a woman in public in Florida

Oh, my. The exhilaration I felt in 2019, passing totally as a female in all conditions since my gender affirmation surgery had been so successful. 

I looked just like the unremarkable women I met as I appeared in public around the Tampa Bay area, shopping for groceries and paying my bills.

I was concerned that my mother could not accept me as a woman, because I was now a much more genuine and self-assured woman than I had ever been as a man.

When people say they “feel like a woman” this is a mild generalization because transgender women cannot accurately describe exactly what it is that makes them a woman. 

Being a woman is not a “feeling." 

Being a woman is a fact.

Gender is a fact, not a feeling. 

Keep in mind, having breasts and other female attributes aren't feelings. They are facts.

It is an identity.  You can’t explain why you are yourself; you just know you are.

So, I don't just FEEL like a woman. 

I simply AM a woman.

I am an Aquarius woman

Born on January 25th, I am an Aquarius woman. We are known to be honest, creative, passionate, unselfish, sociable, mysterious, and spontaneous.

Although, priding myself on my progressive spirit and curious mind, I live under the melancholy shadow of second-guessing myself and pointlessly wondering if I am good enough.

I resist falling in love because I cannot eagerly change even if it benefits me.

I am single since I feel trapped by the needs of a relationship. As much as I love the idea of a link, I find it more pleasing to be alone.

Those born under this Aquarius sign are blessed with self-assurance about who they are and what they want in life. 

I do not pretend to be somebody I am not. With me, what you see is what you get.

An Aquarius woman.

Being a woman all the time

What delights me at age 55 is that I am a woman all the time.

I'm not an imitation, as I was for 25 years as a crossdresser.

I am not a male, which I was for forty-nine terrible years.

I am a vibrant, joyous female adult.

Most days I take it for granted, and that’s a shame. It's a miracle!  

There was a time when I would daydream about how nice it would be to be pretty. 

How nice it would be to look like a woman in any clothes, even a button-down shirt. How wonderful it would be to have curves, to have smooth skin, to have breasts that were real.

Being a woman is amazing. It’s an incredible, magical journey across the gender frontier.
