Hey! YOU young(er) Girly BoysI feel old. I scroll through tumblr and see so many beautiful young ladies dressed how I wish I could dress. I see young crossdressers absolutely nailing it. I see young people coming to terms publicly about their identities. I often wonder, “Was I born a generation too early?” There are plenty of times I also wonder, in the words of Danny Glover, “I’m too old for this shit.” If you have no idea what I’m talking about then you’re most likely of the younger generation. lolI want to say something to you younger girly boys. I also wish I could actually put into words my thought and feelings; to articulate it in the way I really wish to get it across. And let me tell you, it’s so much more than, “You’re incredible.”I want to tell you younger guys, or however you wish to refer to yourselves, live YOUR life as soon as you can. Don’t sweep it under the rug so you can get married. Don’t have a special bonfire to symbolically burn your girl’s clothing during a life-changing moment. Don’t hide away your passions in some proverbial closet so that you spare yourself the inevitable “conversation.” Be you NOW. I can tell you without any hesitation that if you let life roll on without letting yourself be you, it’s only going to get harder. If this means telling your girlfriend or fiance now, do it (or boyfriend). If this means meeting some of the raised eyebrows because of your feminine appearance, it’s better now than when you’re older. The older you get, the more of a mold you end up carving out for yourself. Don’t get me wrong. Anybody can make significant changes at any time in their lives. Lots of girly boys have done that and I salute them. But I’m coming from someone who is in a trap–a mold that has already been cast. Fully being who I believe myself to be would be more than detrimental to myself and family. But if I had been up front, honest, and chose paths in life that complimented who I am, then I wouldn’t necessarily be in this trap.I get it. It’s scary. Oh so scary. And I completely understand if you end up following a similar course as my own. I totally get it! But if, by any chance, you have the balls to push your true girly self forward, I really believe that you will be happier and live a more fulfilling and free life 20, 30, 40 years from now than if your kept it all to yourself.Honestly, I almost deleted all of this. I feel like such a hypocrite telling you to do what I failed to do. At the same time, I feel like my wisdom is something for you to learn from. I want you to gain from my losses because I believe in a bright future for boys who want some form of femininity in their life. Whether that’s full-on transition or being as I wish I could be: a girly boy for life.I love you, girlies. Seriously, I love you and am proud of who you are.CandieHart -- source link
