How is the move to Oregon coming along Birdie?  From what you've said before, I thought you were pursuing that possibility.  Texas obviously works for many folks, but certainly not for everyone... I guess we could say that about most states but Texas seems to be going out of its way to insert themselves into people's bedrooms and their lives in a pretty aggressive manner.  Life is too short to play those games if one doesn't need to.  Good luck my friend.

Nothing new and exciting... in fact, last night I wanted to experiment sleeping with an underwire brassiere and chose a very old favorite that is now on the tightest hooks.  It worked but I took it off in the middle of the night... and put it on again this morning for old time sakes.  I even took a photograph for this very thread... this Lilyette unlined brassiere is still up to the task...

My FOURTH former wife called last night and asked if I'd be willing to spend time with her to write eulogies for ourselves to be read by the one who survives.  I mention that simply to say she and I have a very intimate relationship though we have not had a sexual relationship for decades.  I read this thread and feel a great deal of sadness simply because the sexual trauma I experienced as a boy really messed with my sexuality.  It has always been feast or famine and the famine was always associated with fear of intimacy... a remarkable thing to understand when one has been married four times.  I always longed for intimacy and seducing women was about as close as I could get.  When that stage of the relationship was over, so was my ardor.  I wish I'd had the capacity to work through these end of life issues of physical intimacy with a partner but that was not to happen in this lifetime.  But emotional intimacy seems to have come at last.  My fourth wife knows all about my confusing sexual journey, including the fact I've at times turned to crossdressing.  I've mentioned gynecomastia within the last few years and she is doubtless aware of how my breasts have grown.  But I don't share my participation on this website, or my adventures with brassieres like the one I'm wearing at the moment.  I believe I've worn an unlined bralette I occasionally sleep with on one occasion... never an underwire brassiere.  So we love one another probably to the end of our lives, but the rest is ancient history.  I'm so happy that those of you who are in relationships are finding ways to share intimacy with your partners.  Diminished libido and atrophying genitals are not a problem.  Meanwhile I WILL enjoy my breasts.

Very nice! Which Torrid brand is that?

I think it is a XO Plunge push up bra. That one is a 44 triple D.

Acceptance / Re: I love having boobs!

In all cases either a thicker golf polo or relaxed fit dark shirt was worn and felt it camouflaged things well but after that made me feel insecure again.

That happens a lot to me too. Just remember no one’s really looking.

A pullover still has definitive lining to them as the neck and back go down further than a man’s tank top lining would. But still feel it provides enough middle ground to not be seen as such on a guy.

Totally agree!

I love having boobs but if this is another growth spurt there’s gonna be a line that gets crossed in their appearance I feel.

Trust me, as someone with a bit bigger chest who also wears the pullovers and dark shirts, no one seems to notice or care. Yeah, I’ll occasionally get the glance down from coworkers, but no one’s said or asked a thing. People will accept that that’s just Dude and that’s how he looks. Al long as you don’t go full on bra at work or with your social group you’ll be fine! I’ve been there and done that.

Oldguy, Sometimes you get lucky and find a great partner or sometimes God smiles on you and gives you a gift.

For me, I have never been well endowed below, just above. And as time has marched on, and things increased up top, below has slowly receded. Cause and effect of a life time of elevated estrogen.

All going well, I am 75 & been married 40 years. Lots of water under the bridge.
The orchiectomy was due to the syndrome.

Intimacy is the most important
remnant of wild youthful exuberant sexuality we shared. Dang, we both had libidos that took control often.
Age can be a cruel mistress but we manage joyful moments still .

I hear you.  No surgery, so still active.  I get this will change at some time.  Steady at 17 and married at 21.  Still the love of my life.  Sometimes, we get lucky.

All this gives gravity to the axiom ‘ It is what it is’. 

The work to find new ways to enjoy and satisfy a partner’s needs & wants is minimal in a strong relationship.
I say this because it has been our path.  For us it was not frightening, but then the future became obvious early on. 

Our journey is unique , as are others, in that we understood the medical issues were profound long before the doctors and the diagnosis was made.

I pray & hope others will understand that the path they are on get the clarity they need to be accepting and happy.
Stay strong, all.
