It is a peculiar irony that at the same time it gets to be the easiest to convincingly crossdress, many t-girls are hanging up their heels.

Making It Hard on Ourselves

Women and men look strikingly similar at a very young and very old ages, and yet, it is commonly during the time of life when it is most difficult to appear as a convincing version of the opposite sex that most tgirls are active.

I have heard from some of the sexiest girls, who vow not to persist past their “Best Before” date.  These are girls of my own ilk – in the sense that they are dressing for enjoyment and not out of a sense of need or psychological distress.So, it got me thinking about my own all-too-rapidly increasing age… (I mean 27 is right around the corner! 😛 )

And, respectfully, I don’t feel that’ll be the appropriate decision for me.

Depends What You Get Out of It

I understand that some of us are all about turning heads and scandalizing society at large, and most delightfully, tourists from small parochial towns, typically from the Midwest…

…but, while I can still appreciate that kind of fun, being a girl has turned into something that I value for many reasons beyond the highly sexualized lark it was when I began.

The vast majority of the time, I dress to be feminine but not slutty or provocative; I dress to be attractive but not attention-grabbing.  I want to be taken seriously as a woman (ok, also, I want to be taken, as a woman – seriously! 😀 )  I want to be treated as a lady and romanced rather than seen as a sex object.  Usually. 😉

Of course, my dress and my demeanour have to say all that for me, and I hope that they do.

It will be no different, I imagine, when I get older.

I assume that just as my standards in terms of behavior and attractiveness for myself and my companions has changed since I was a teenager, so too will they change into senior citizenship.  As long as I am a vibrant and attractive individual within my cohort, why should I stop?

There are so many variables that it is a fool’s game to try to predict what I will do that far into the future.  But, the way I see my womanhood, I can’t see giving it up until I’m giving up just about everything else I love… hopefully only a very short time before the end of a very long and enjoyable existence.

… and let us say… Amen.
