Hello to all, I seem to have gotten side tracked and neglected to introduce myself. My self given name for these sites and such is AlissaMurray. I've been a crossdresser for fourty years and I've never gone out of the castle dressed. In my younger years with the right help I think I could have passed in public for a woman and gone mostly unnoticed. Have my doubts now but on the flip side of that coin I care a little less now what people think. I may or may not ever be seen in public as Alissa, I've been going back and fourth for years on this. Like many of you I live in the heart of redneckville and live each day as a male, as a dad, as a boss, as a LynyrdSkynyrd lovin', pickup truck driving country boy. Most of the people in my life a truly good people but not the most open minded if you know what I mean. So I just stay hidden, just seems like it's the thing to do. My lovely wife and I have discussed a road trip to Chicago or GrandRapids for a make over and some sort of event. Time will tell I suppose. I would like to say "thank GOD for the internet" because I thought it was "just me" for a very long time. Now I have some grasp on just how NOT ALONE I am. I've read so many storys over the last several years that sound as if some one was reading a chapter out of my life, so many of us have been through the same things, wondered the same thoughts, got down on ourselves, purged, only to start over again later. I myself have gone through "the purge" several times in my life. Always comes back, we are who we are in life and some of us want to be girls, some of us are happy being men we would simply rather present as girls, some of us just like the clothes, it goes on and on through every variation one can think of. Preaching to the crowd I am so allow me to sit back and shut up. Thank you for allowing me to become a part of the Crossdressers-Haven community. I look forward to making many new aquaintances.
