Hi Ya'll. I'm Bulldog from Ohio. I'm an older man. Happily married to a beautiful woman; we have a son [deceased], a Gator daughter,grandkids and OMG- great grandkids [ told you I was ancient :D ]. Avid Ohio State Buckeye fan. Live for football in the "Shoe". Lovedd to watch ole Woody Hayes coach. I am a college graduate. Hopefully, I may be able to help the younger folks on here in their decisions on whether to transition or not.

KellyGirl,

Thank you for the kind compliments. The best advice I can give anyone is that-if you know in your heart and soul that if your brain and body do not match. You have to make the effort to match them up. Granted family and friends may go weird on you. But, you have to be happy with yourself. No one else can live your life for you.

It is amazing the older TSs that are now going through their transitstions in their 50s & 60s, because they are sooo tired of living a big lie. They can no longer take the stress of being pulled in 2 different directions by society. So, I say GO FOR IT!!! before you die. For once in your life make yourself happy and screw the rest of the world. Ya know, we only have so much time on this earth and we have to make the most of it count for something. :D

hi Bulldog, welcome to the forums :) i'm a buckeye fan myself...even if my family hates me for it :P

Hey Drew- my fellow Buckeye :D I see you're from down in Cincy-nice city. I used to live up 75 in Fairborn. But, I live over in the beautiful hills of SE Ohio now. Wouldn't trade it for anything.

Man, our family is really divided in football. Our daughter and family are Gators. We have an Auburn grandson and his family. The others are All ARMY.

Mary Ellen, thank you for welcoming to the forum. See that you're from Boston. Whata town. ;) Years ago, I used to come down there on the weekends and party like a madman. Life was young,good,crazy and mellow-yellow back then. But, I haven't been back in 35 years.

Other than wild parties, no one back here could understand a word that I spoke. Guess I picked up ya'lls accent while I was up there. Still have a little of it left [slips in sometimes]. :D

      No. I am not at peace. I am going through an awful emotional season at this part of my transition.    I am so grateful to have a therapist to talk to.    I am SO very grateful for you all and this space. Especially at this time.    Thank you.    -Timi

      Hi everyone Thank you

      Thank you for the intro. Where are you located?

      Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. These are my go-tos for those times.    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQD51FSH?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details   Funny thing is that Reebok mens briefs look more like panties than Reebok women's hipsters (which are also one of my favs. Vanity Fair Body Caress Hi Cuts being my absolute favorites).    -Timi

      Happiness is singing this song with my wife in the morning over coffee on our 30th anniversary. Desperately trying not to dilute the coffee with my tears.

      Good afternoon everyone,    I hope you’re having a wonderful day. @Birdie I love the good morning picture. I have an open door policy for coffee.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I threw away most of my male ones, kept a few just in case (Dr appts etc). I had almost thrown those away to until this issue came back up again. Perhaps your right, over time hopefully I'll get more used to it. Having to switch back to regular male undies made me sad. I think going up a size may help to. It's not always sore, only when I wear them for long stretches. I don't feel myself in male undies. Thank you for the advice

      There are so many unsung (no pun intended) musical giants we are not aware of.

      Over time, the stress continues to lessen -- as well as the euphoria that accompanied my coming out and beginning HRT. And as those milestones recede in the rearview mirror, it has allowed me to feel much more normal,  and to find my own expression of "non-binaryness".  My clothes closet is probably 80% female items, and will likely stay that way for the forseeable future. Were I young, I doubtlessly would find a different expression, but at 75 I am happy with what I achieved.   Another +1 to what @KathyLauren said regarding the worrisome and hateful behavior that we are witnessing. I can hope that this cycle will diminish over time, but to aid in that, each of us and millions of cis voters need to be involved in local as well as state/provincial, and national elections.    Kind regards,   Astrid
