A Toe in the Water

 Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to read this.  I'll keep the intro brief.  I'm a long-time crossdresser.  Either it has shaped my life or, more likely, the underlying nature of who I am emerges in many directions, and this is one facet.  I've been ashamed of this part of me for my whole life. It was a primary reason for my divorce, and the loss of a long-time lady friend.  They couldn't deal with it, and only added to my shame.

I'm in a new relationship now, with an amazing woman. We've been together for over a year. I love her more than I ever thought it was possible to love another person. I would endure all the hardships that led me down the road I'm on just so that I could find her again.

I was upfront with her about my past, and also about my crossdressing.  She has been incredible.  She told me that she loves all of me, the whole package.  It's as though she recognizes that so many of my other characteristics are intertwined with this one.  

Not to sound braggardly, but I do have some good qualities, like kindness, respect, empathy, and thoughtfulness. I'm submissive, an attentive lover, and a feminist. I find more joy in my lady's sexual pleasure than in my own. I'm a reasonably intelligent person. I love to learn, and to change and grow as I do.

I do not believe there is a god. I think religion is man-made (i.e. made by men, not women) and while it may have started out in pre-scientific civilization as a way to explain the unknown, it is now mostly used to sustain patriarchy.  I do not belive there is a heaven or a hell, other than what we make for ourselves and each other here in this finite existence.  I do not think humans are all that special among the living creatures. I believe animals have the capacity for many of the same emotions as humans; among them love, fear, happiness, sadness, anger, and grief.  All animals feel pain, not just cats and dogs. Thus, I am also vegan.

So, this is a story of my new life, the one with the love of my life, who loves all of me.  I guess that's enough for now.  

This is my private blog, and what I say here are my thoughts and mine alone.  If you're a kindred spirit, I'd like to hear from you.  If you're not, that's ok too, but let's not argue about it.

Regards,

Jennifer
