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,
Lucille
since 5 years old have been dressing as a female since have bought some also pick up cloths in some places will in time to live as a women full time
When I was about 6, my parents took me and my sister to my aunt and uncle’s place. They had an apartment, in a block of several buildings, all 3 stories high, all separated by a lawn with a narrow sidewalk running between them. The sidewalk had railings on both sides, so that you’d have to turn sideways to let someone pass, coming the other way.
I was coming back to my aunt’s place walking along that sidewalk. A man eventually came towards me, the other way. And as we both turned sideways to let the other pass, he looked at me and said, “excuse me, little girl.”
Now I always had long hair, since I’d bawl my eyes out whenever my Mom tried to cut it. So I guess it makes sense, at that age, that he’d make that “mistake”.
But I’ll never forget how happy his little apology made me. I guess I’ve “known”, ever since.
I was 5. Mom bought a dress for the daughter of a female friend, and tried it on me; and I loved it! I wore dresses in secret since I was 10. (I never got caught.) Although I discovered that I was attracted to women, and not men, at age 12, I was “every inch a girl” whenever I could get away with it.
Since I was four. My Mom said that if I dressed in my sister’s clothes again she would have to tell my Dad and we didn’t want that, shaking her head from side to side. Let’s not forget the effect of the synthetic estrogen that the FDA, the AMA gave to pregnant women from 1947 to 1975
Back in 1957 there was no option. Its still not great.

I realized at the age of 5
Well, my mother always wanted a daughter and said when I was about two that I should have been born a girl. I loved my mother and in those early days WWII she had heard about LIli Elbe and the whole schmear about TG and never convinced me that I should follow suit. I was lambasted and even humiliated in so many ways to the end that I silently rebelled at these notions. I always wondered why I never developed a lot of body hair and remained skinny and androgenous for a long time in my development but the kicker was my post puberty dreams of being the other gender. They never bothered me then but after I started to take finasteride for BPH they came back in spades and now they manifest as GD but only in a vicarious way I think. The crossdress and TG world isn’t pressing me yet but it could so I am becoming educated with help, you included. Thank you Lucille.
