Introduction
Hello. My name is Richard and I'm a 19 year old male.
About a year ago I began experimenting with cross dressing. I had called an MtF friend of mine and told her that I was just more comfortable with the thought of a feminine frame that could match more feminine mannerisms, but at the same time I didn't have the urge to just damn my penis to the fires of hell. She suggested cross dressing as opposed to transitioning.
I gave it a healthy shot and I have to say, I'm happy with the results. I feel better in woman's clothes, though of course I'm nervous when people see me in them for the first time. I never wanted to be Manly and Strong, but I do love being Pretty and Feminine.
Recently I began re-entertaining the concept of transitioning. I don't hate my penis with a holy fury, but I'd just rather be female.
I have to admit I'm a little doubtful. I know from my experimenting that I prefer to be referred to and treated as a woman (being called a "she" or "Rose" always sends chills up my spine. I"m addicted.), but the fact that this came to me so late in life and the fact that I don't have the same kind of angry regret over my body that my one real-life TG friend has towards her own both make me wonder if this is legitimate or if I'm just a poser. I know how I really feel, but I don't know if those feelings are *enough*.
Regardless, this community looks great and I'll be gladly watching it.
