Age is a popular topic around here and I’m occasionally asked…
“Am I too old to crossdress?” or “Am I too old to transition as a transgender woman?”
My response?
NO, of course not!
Whether you are a so-called mature crossdresser – or an older MTF woman beginning her transition – it is NEVER too late to be your true female self.
I believe that the true desires or your heart are meant to be expressed – no matter how long they’ve been buried.
Is it true that your age may have an impact on hormone therapy or surgery? Yes, that’s possible. But a good doctor will guide you on your best and safest options.
The fact remains that you can transition and/or present yourself as a woman at any point in life.
In fact, embracing your feminine side can give you a whole new lease on life…
I see it all the time: People seem to grow years younger when they make the decision to be themselves fully.
Having the courage to express your true self also inspires others to do the same. The world needs more of this!
In the words of Laverne Cox:
“It is revolutionary for any trans person to choose to be seen and visible in a world that tells us we should not exist.”
I’ll say it again: You are NEVER too old to be your true female self.
So, I encourage you to take that next step and do whatever it is that you’ve been holding back on.
You deserve it. And it’s not too late!
Do you agree that age is just a number?
Now I’d love to hear from YOU on this topic…
How old were you when you decided to fully embrace your female self? (Or are you still waiting?)
Let’s continue the conversation in the comments below!
Love,
Lucille

Hi Lucille my first time was when I was in my mid teens when I put on my older sister clothes I did that for about a year then I stop. Then in my mid 30s I started to put on my wife panties and need I say more I fund myself put her clothes on more I came across your website and started browsing I found myself buying your book and now I’m growing my girls this year I went out and bought my own panties and Bras this summer I bought my dress and went out for the first time as a woman
It took me over 60 years to come out as TS to my wife and family and another 2 years to tell my friends. Far too long! I will regrettably never be physically the person I would love to be but my heart and soul have always been feminine, since my earliest memories. At least now all the abuse, secretiveness, deception, self-harm and guilt have gone. Almost everyone said, “so what, we knew all along”. I have had Psych. Therapy and I am taking hormones and my beard removed but that is for me! Will I dress up and appear in public yes but only if I am happy with my appearance.
Would I ever like to be a real man, absolutely not.
love to be dominated
A question to the other ladies, did we leave it too late because we would be considered gay. The real question is, does one have to be gay to be transgendered to transition.
I am not gay, I have a wife that I think the world of, she knows what I’m doing.
But I’m enjoying the transition, to have near “B” cup boobs
and wearing a bra to carry them, wish I had known about the
herbs years ago.
If women can semi-dress as men & get away with it, why cannot men semi-dress as women. It is not the clothes that make you a human, it is what is in-side you, your values & etc. If you are going to transition, do it as young as you can, the hormones, even the herbs will work better on you.
What do others think?.
I used herbs for years and years and discovered it was a useless waste of time and money. When I got my blood tested, the doctor told me my testosterone level was off the charts, that most men would die to have those high levels. that was the reason the herbs weren’t working for me! I began HRT several months ago, my T-level is about nil now and the hormones are working great! Get a doctor’s advice and get on HRT is my best advice.
What herbs? would really love to have bigger breasts, Love seeing nice breasts on a man.

Yeah, I am 48 and extremely masculine, rough, hairy, bi curious, middle class, blue collar family man.
I have had very hot sexual fantasies and occasions of very deep longing and even at times a remorse or mourning feeling or loss for the impossibility to ever realize my dream of experiencing for myself the full mystery to fully feel attractive and SEXY as the type of femininity that my male personality finds so desirable.
My lifestyle , aging, and livelyhood make even the most basic of closet crossdressing improbable. Merely just crossdressing in female clothing is nothing too nice, as I am simply a bear of a man dressed in a womans article of clothing. Rather humiliating and hard to take too seriously. It feels rather silly and far from sexy. Of course I have rarely the opprotunity to even carry out the most rudimentary of this experimentation. The furthest I have ever experimented in this vain has been wearing a girlfriend’ or wife’s panties, stockings and heels a couple of times while seeking self sexual gratification and self hpynotic suggestion and imagination.
Surely not a pretty sight squeezed into heels and panties two or three times too small! As I grow older I get uglier in my masculinity and lazy in my upkeep with the profusion of hair growing out of every orifice! I wish I could just go and get my whole body waxed and go smooth. But it would be such a drastic change to my daily man appearance that it would OUT me to everyone I know! My kids, my wife my employer/coworkers and friends. I wish I could experience smooth soft skin manicured hands and nails, pedicured feet and feminized features! I envy the young teenager that hasnt fully realized the full implementation of testosterone on their young and easy to feminize bodies. I could have pulled it off so easily at 18yrs but was too concerned trying to prove my masculinity akt that age!…. For me I would totally love to spend a couple weeks of fun and debauchery en femme. Just once if I could go to a salon and shed all my hairy features total wax punishment masochistic treatment. Pedicure and manicure too. Then off to a total transformation makeover and professional service to make me sexy hot passible in eveningwear before heading out escorted for a night on the town hitting up all the clubs as a woman with my high heels clacking on the floor as I attract attention of men. I want to be picked up and hit on and ultimately leave to spend the night with a confident strong man that knows exactly how to fully give me the ultimate womanhood experience . I want to be a real and sexy woman in the world for a day1
Joann Dahl, is there anyway you can use Lucille’s
herb programe, changing your thinking inside may
change your outlook on the out-side.
Using the herbs as hormones will change your inside thinking, but may/will make you start taking pride in your-self on the outside.
Where do you want to be?, do you really want to be there?, if you really want to be there>you’ll get there, don’t leave it too long!
I first became aware of my femme self during myteen years, when most of us began discovering the opposite sex. Did not fully embrace it until I was much older…married with a few kids. I really wish I could embrace being Lindsey more often or even full-time, but will take what I can get. I can certainly relate to repressing these feelings well into adulthood, but my hat is off to all my sisters who have held on until reaching a more mature age. I am so happy you are able to embrace your femme selves and wish you love and happiness in your endeavors.
Good on you.I’m over 50 myself.You’re so lucky to have a partner that’s accepting.Maybe one day someone will come into my life like that but for now I’m single and loving it.Take care Abby 🙂
I have recently turned 60, and I am a cross dresser. My first experience with cross dressing was when I was 6 or 7. I really don’t go out en-femme but do wear panties, pantyhose in winter, and a cami under my work clothes. I wish society would be more accepting of our unique perspective on life, but sadly there are still too many individuals who deem it their responsibility to police how others should look or dress in public. My wife loves me en-femme and she picks up little items for me when she’s out shopping. I love her with all my heart, not just because of her accepting attitude, but because of her unconditional love for me.
You are a lucky person to have a good partner.
You are right Laurie, but it took 2 tries to get it right. The first non-accepting try took 27 years of my life. This time around has been 10 and a half wonderful years. I guess the message is don’t give up on yourself. Be open and honest with your partner or potential partner, but remember, you’re the one that has to die when it’s time for you to die.
