Hi, I'm Carla

I'm a 56 years old transwoman. I began my transition recently, after that denied the woman inside of me, the whole life. I had a rough childhood and tried to be a good boy, later good husband and father. But now all my children become adult, so now it is my time to live my life as a woman. It's going to be a tough journey and I feel myself rather alone here in Sweden, but I can't give up. I'm looking forward to learn from yours experience here.

Welcome to Trans Pulse, Carla!  It's nice to meet you.  I'm glad that you're in a place in your life where you find the freedom to be the woman you were always meant to be.  That is a wonderful feeling.  I started my transition at almost the same age and the last 10 years or so have been very happy and fulfilling.

 

I don't know what the process is in Sweden, but hopefully there are gender therapists you can access.  Seeing one will surely benefit you.  Please look around the forums and see the variety of topics you can ask questions in.  We'll be here for you.

 

HUGS

Welcome Carla.  You are certainly not alone.  Many of us are older, finding that it is time to be honest about who we are.

Glad you've joined us.

 

Hugs,

@Carla1965  Welcome!  Our gender journeys are seldom short, sometimes there are pauses, but not giving up is a good attitude to have.

Welcome @Carla1965 Glad to have you here as a member. Like you and @Carolyn Marie, I too started my final transition at age 56. Now at 59, I’m happier than I’ve ever been despite several recent setbacks (and covid). It is never too late to start living authentically. It’s very difficult to live otherwise as we’ve experienced in our past.

 

I hope your journey is a smooth one and hope to read more about it as it is experienced. Please feel free to share what you’re comfortable sharing. So many of us can learn from successes and even the difficulties in one’s journey.

 

Warmest Regards,

Susan R🌷

Just a quick reminder of the forum rule #7:  All posts and conversations held at TransPulse must be in English. Our staff speaks only English, and we must be able to effectively moderate all content.

While i am sure what has been written here is not counter to decent taste as a fellowship we share with all in one language understood by all.

 

Hugs,

Sorry, Charlize.  I'll remember!

 

By the way, does that apply also to PMs? 

 

Thanks,

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Who, precisely, are "they"?

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
