I've shared before that my wife isn't on board with my desire to feminize myself. We had a frank discussion a few weeks ago where I confided that had today's resources been available to me as a teenager that I may have chosen the transsexual route. That alarmed her greatly, but I assured her that at my age and with so much family involved I felt it is no longer an option for me.

She's still very concerned (I didn't reveal my gender dysphoria to her until last spring). At the time of our last discussion about three weeks ago I was looking for some middle ground -- maybe the opportunity to express myself as a woman at least privately. We didn't get very far on the subject and I didn't want to rush things lest they "blow up." We have a great marriage and family and neither one of us wants to lose that.

My experience on PM, however, is profoundly changing what I thought I wanted. It seems that introducing substantial amounts of estrogen is indeed "re-wiring" my brain, and as some others have already said the desire to express oneself as female and thoughts of possible transition are disappearing.

I'm going to continue the PM and see where this leads. As for now, though, the future looks happy for me and my family!
