Hi,
My name is Charlene, and ever since I was 15 years old, and saw my first picture of a shemale/sissy boi, I have known what I was inside. Even as early as the second grade, I knew I was different from other boys. I liked playing with girls, and even had a Ken doll that I played with side by side with my sister and her Barbie dolls. Though the school years, I realized that I was different from other boys, taking gymnastics and cooking classes, never caring for "locker room" chat. Lost my ass virginity to a guy a few months before losing my regular virginity to a girl at the age of 16.
As fate would have it, between the military, wives, and kids, and PTSD suffered in the military, I was never able to pursue my true self. In 1997, I tried, at the urging of my counselor, to pursue my true self, with little success. At the age of 48, I started counseling, and with the support of a loving wife, have been slowly becoming feminized. Now, as my 50th birthday approaches, I have decided to take next step of having my body more closely match my true self inside. Since I am not wanting to become completely female (having my penis removed), I am hoping that with Transfemme, I will find the balance of a feminized male body I have been searching for.
