I never doubted that! Shame you had to resort to this.
@ReneeT I wish I had her support as a daughter but I don't. She is of a generation far too set in their beliefs to accept me. We don't talk. Share as I have no siblings and she is all I have.
I am glad you relate as you do here. There are those that understand us and those that never will.

@ReneeT Thank You She can be mean. I grew up in my grandmothers house with two aunts and my Mother. So 4 women. I was NOT welcome there and it was hell. The youngest was 21 years older than me. There was never any fascination with any clothing or garments of anyone. However that may play into this but I think not.
A friend of mine is an American Indian Shaman and she said I was female in my last life(maybe last two) and my greatest joy was being a MOTHER! She believe I am trying to get back to that on some level. I agree. I am very mothering--even with total strangers.
We both believe I had to be born male to fully understand discrimination, double standards, societal expectations, and so on. Now that i DO---I am free to be me---again.

@Elandra77 I so do believe in past lives and I am sure that I was a woman sometime before. Even though the male role feels a little different than it was maybe 100 years ago there is still that double standard around. I am so glad you feel free again. I am happy to have a friend like you here to talk with.
