[The First Aria]

I read this article, and of course this theory is accepted by a great many.  I must admit that it leaves me wondering what, indeed, it means for me if true.  I lived about half a century rarely, very rarely, imagining being anything other than male.  Then my thinking slowly began drifting in another direction.  More than a decade later, I think about it almost all of the time when I am not focused on something else.  I finally started to do something about it, with a certain amount of uncertainty I must admit.  I know I am happiest when taking estradiol, and wish I could snap my fingers and have family, friends, and the world in general accept me as whatever I might become.  

So, if transgendered people are "born that way," what does that mean for me?  I do not know, and would greatly appreciate any insight.

I to, was a "Late Bloomer".  I have been playing around with Cross Dressing since I was 30ish.  I would volunteer to go in drag to costume parties and once in a while wear panty hose even on a work day , tights for those in the U.K., .But, it increasingly got more difficult as I got older and especially after my heart attack that ended in me retiring at the "old" age of 52.  Wow, then the girl half of me REALLY started to scream....
