Yes. I lived as a woman for over a year, working as a reporter for the infamous LA Star. I covered the music industry and wrote reviews for them. Living as a woman was a requirement for sex reassignment surgery,m which I was seriously considering.
I passed in public just fine. In fact, I could look pretty darned hot. I was 5’ 10” and 128 pounds at the time.with naturally bland hair that I let grow out. It later turned dirty blond, but the white coming in now is getting me back to square one. Soon, I;klk look like a towhead again.
I only backed away from sex reassignment surgery when I thought it through and realized that I am just what I am, a man that has some distinct feminine thought patterns. I realized that no surgery could give me XX chromosomes, and that I might as well make the best of the hand nature had dealt me.
That said, I certainly don’t want to suggest that other transgendered people who decide differently are wrong about their sense of self. I just realized that the surgery would not fix my own sense of who I really am. I’m now quite comfortable in a male body. I work out daily and am pretty ripped for a guy my age. I even sport washboard abs. And with a close-cropped full beard, I’d make a lousy drag queen. Go figure.
