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

it is NEVER to late to express your feminine side, sure some people may laugh at you and call you names, but GET OVER IT!!!!. These people are ignorant fools, and have no life of their own. They watch Jerry Springer, and think that he is god almighty, No he’s not!!!! his show is staged, the people on this piece of garbage are PAID actors!!!!.
I started cross-dressing when I was five, but my parents made me give this up.
I started again when I was a teenager, but sadly, when I turned twenty, I quit again.
Now that I live on my own, during the summer, I cross-dress all of the time. It really pisses some of my neighbors, who hate cross-dressing faggots like myself.
I go to extremes when I cross-dress, and have even gone as far as almost being naked. I said ALMOST because nudity is against the law. By the way, I’m fifty now, but have been cross-dressing for four years.
the urge or knowledge that you must express your feminine side never goes away. like so many i surpressed and purged a number of times thinking that that would change things. it didn’t. now at nearly 60 i have accepted that as a part of me and express it as often as i can. personal acceptance is the first step to personal happiness.
My journey to womanhood was long and arduous. When puberty started, my gender discrepancy between physical and mental changes created many nightmares and dysphoria. To protect myself, I went into denial; a phase that lasted 16 years. When I finally accepted myself as transsexual in the late 1980’s, my career had taken me into a high public profile work.
While I found comfort in knowing who I really was, not being able to transition continued to cause some stress. Maintaining a conservative hormone regimen helped me through this period. Three years ago I had my name and gender legally changed and I am looking forward to completing my transition with Gender Alignment Surgery in fall of this year. I am 63 years young… 🙂

In my young age I begin to CD at about twelve in mid 50Th’s. I stayed in the closet with myself up to 63/64. Now I am 71, my wife of the last seven year knows and help me to be more en femme with make-up counseling, colour and type of clothes that fit me better.
I love high heels plus my 5’11”. Once in a while, we (my wife and I) go in restaurant, Shopping Center, etc. Sometimes peoples give’s a look, but was never insulted by nobody.
Since 8 years now, my nails are always transparent shinning, wherever I goes, and am very much implicated in all kind of associations within my small town or area.
I deeply loved my beautiful wife for her understanding and support.
I wish that support for every existing cross-dresser.
Best regards

Never too late. I started HRT at 58. Now at 63, I’m fully socially transitioned and very much out. My small city community is very accepting and I’m very happy that I’ve finally realized much of my dream.
Age may be an advantage.
– People just do not really see older women, certainly not like young women. Huge advantage in passing especially when there are a few masculine tell-tales.
– Eccentricity is better tolerated in older individuals. People assume you know what you are doing even if your actions are surprising to them. Very few question my choices and most are actively supportive.
– I know myself and there has been very little of the self doubt that troubles many of my younger transgender friends. This is a great blessing.
As a late transitioner (63) I fianally realized my lifelong dream. Started HRT in August 2016. Been living full time since same date. Did it cause the failure of my marriage? Yes, but that wasn’t the only issue. Sure there are challenges, but I’m truly happy. Just wish I could have done it earlier.
