I’ve observed that many crossdressers and transgender women recognize their gender identity at a young age. For some, it’s an early realization, while for others, it unfolds later in life.
I’m curious about your experience…
When did you first realize you were female or had a feminine side? Was this something you felt as a child, or did it develop over time?
I’d love to hear your story! Feel free share your thoughts in the comments below!
Love,

I started wearing my mothers corsets, make up, ear rings, when I was about 10, I think. But I didn’t want to be a girl and couldn’t understand what was happening. I thought, and still think that I love women so much that sometimes I really want to be one. My present wife is very, very helpful and I now cross dress, and go out with her, whenever I feel like it. I’m now 72 and so happy when dressed.
I have began feeling I was a girl when I was 12. I always felt more female, my mother would even comment on my sexy legs,”if you were a girl”, had she only known. I feel so natural in my “girl” state, am now 50 and way to late to attempt sex change and have grown children who I would never do that to. I dress as often as I can and have even tried natural breast enhancers. I would love to be a woman and have always felt that way.
Hi theré.
to answer your question; I am neither a Girl nor a man.
I am one of the rare genetic variations of nature who is both.
i am what was called a Chimearic hermafrodite.
that means a male and female twin who grew together and form a bigendered body.
i was partially operated as a baby (they closed me up 1962) and ‘forced’ to live like a boy, until (1999) i got very very sick by the male hormones they gave me, but which had partially changed my more feminime appareance into a more masculine (puberty).
i was 108 kg, hairy all over(2000), now (2011) i don’t use anything anymore, i am 69 Kg and healthier and happier than ever. no more fake trying to be what i am not. and i prefere my feminim side although i never will neglect my male side. i am what i am, day and night and reflect that whereever i go. never hiding my treu me, never, anywhere.
i know this is different from most of you TG persons. but it is what nature/god made me. respect and strength to all of you.
I’d have to go back to when I was 5 or 6 years old that I first had feelings that I wasn’t a guy. I was playing hide and seek with some of the neighborhood kids and one of the girls and I were hiding in a shed and she and her sisters had soem toy wigs. She and I put them on and I felt really really normal and that’s the first time I realized I may not want to go thru life as a guy. Years later I was able to be more feminine and I don’t see that ending too soon.
I didn’t fully realize it until later in life (I was 44), but, on looking back as I came to terms with my startling revelations, I came to realize that there were more than enough signs, inwardly and outwardly, right from a very early age. Like so many of us, I just became remarkably adept at sub-consciously repressing it, and ignoring the signs.
I wouldn’t wish my children away for anything, but if I could’ve had both, then I would wish that I’d realized, come to terms with, and transitioned to my real gender many, many years ago.
I have known I was a girl since about 5. MY mother told me I was a boy and insisted I wear boys clothes. I wore girls clothes whenever I got a chance and learned I had to hide to hide it because I was a boy and it would be “shameful” to dress as a girl. It wasn’t until I was 48 that I finally got over the “shameful” stigma and started being myself. I now take pride telling people I am going to have a sex change and I take pride wearing makeup to the shops or a dress when I answer the front door. I hope to rid myself of the rest of the shame feelings so I can become a female on a full time basis, and hopefully marry a nice man.
I was 7 years old when my stepmother begins to grow my hair.She told me that i’m not like stepbrther because i was skinny with delicat featuers and shy.I couldn’t say no because something inside me was happy about that decision.when he becomes till y shouldershe begins tied it 4 me in a high pony tail and take me to hair stylist.Then when i become 9 years old so told me that she wants 2 take me to party as a girl.She dress me and she style my hair very girly.I liked the comments that i got there and i liked the dress.I liked the silk fabric who touch my skin.Then i begin to like it and i asked her if we can make it again.I knew that i’m not like other boys because something inside me was happy in evrything and needs more.Nowdays i’m still dressing in secret and i’m thinking 2 be myself and get out.i got some problems through my puberty.I teased a lot but i was happy.
Thanks for alowing for me to share you a litlle bit from my life and all the best.
I have feeling like a woman as long as I can remember.My mother said I look like a girl grow-up. My father would beat me if he caught me in things like that,I would cry not toget in any trouble with him. As I come to relive that I weren’t born as a boy,but the girl my mother wanted. I love the person that I became. I dress as a woman 24/7 and love every minutes of the day. I just want my breast to be a little bigger. My dream is to have them and myself will br half way complete,except the hair that come on my hair. I totally get tired of shaving or use cream to removing the hair. My family love the person that I hve become. Please help me with those two things if you can, THANK YOU.
