Question
I’m heading quickly towards the big 50 and I always wonder if there will be a time to ‘retire’ Sarah.
I don’t want to be an old wrinkly T granny.
How old would you say is too old??

There is no retirement.
The dressing does not go away.
You can try to fight it but you will be back to dressing.
You’ll be just as old as a guy.

you will know when its time to retire,
I am 60 and still enjoying it.

We don’t get older. It’s just the makeup takes longer.

Do what you want but I’ve got no intention of retiring any activity I enjoy as long as I am able to do it.
Why give up something you enjoy if you don’t have to?
Alternatively, if age is a worry for you,
why not consider packing it all in now,
just to be on the safe side?
At the end of the day, the choice is entirely up to you but I know what I’d prefer.

Thanks all of you for your contributions,
all looking amazing which makes me feel good
I guess I’m not getting my attic back for a while
but I might stay off the heels until I get my new hip

I’m into my seventies but still enjoying the thrill of being dressed,
if you choose your wardrobe,
makeup with care and not turn out as mutton dressed as mutton you will still look attractive,
so what are a few lines,
how about Sophia Loren and the late Honor Blackman!

Hi Sarah you look fabulous so any retirement on your part will be society’s loss.
Ultimately it is your choice and I don’t enough of your personal circumstances to guide you one way or the other.
However, I will say i turned 52 yesterday and these last two years as Debbie have been as good as any that went before them.

It only takes a few minutes of research using the search engines to show that membership in crossdressing does decrease rapidly in the over 60’s.
This might be because the closet TVs can’t hide their internet activities from their wives now that they are retired.
It’s a similar problem for alcoholics, before retirement their wives had no idea how much booze they drank but in retirement everything is apparent.
I became retired a couple of years ago and gave up most of my dressing activities,
my wife has always known that I was a TV but she doesn’t like to see me dressed.
Both of us are at home 24/7 and I rarely get a chance to dress. Pre-Covid I did visit local TV venues or have makeover days.
So in retirement, it is likely that many girls have to give up dressing because the opportunity to dress is much less than it was when they worked.

I don’t know whether to be offended or perhaps put this down to a badly phrased question?
It has been previously posted
Be a wrinkly old grandad.
Or a stylish, if wrinkly T granny.
My choice has been made,
I ain’t hanging up my bra any time soon.
Age is just a number.
If you are thinking of giving up your trans lifestyle,
what else are you going to surrender to time?
Hope this helps.

Having visited London clubs in the past like sweet Wednesday and legs I can confirm the majority of girls were ladies in their fiftys and up,
sometimes you could even see white-haired ladies who must have been in seventies.

Well I’m 67 and can never see me being able to stop, quite the opposite actually!

I remember reading a post in the general forum a few weeks ago, from someone in Devon or Cornwall who’s in their 80s and still banging dudes left, right, and center.
I was seriously impressed.
Ignore the numbers and just do what feels right for you.

Many of us may dwell on age and getting older,
it is quite a common trait regardless of gender.
But worrying about age can have a damaging effect on our lives too,
busy worrying can lead to not enjoying and being happy with ourselves.
Never too old to still love the things you love.
Never too old to be who you truly are.

Everyone gets wrinkly as they get older.
It’s not desirable, but just life.
If you’re a ‘tranny’ for genuine reasons you’ll just have to accept the wrinkles as everyone else does.

I thought this very question a couple of years ago.
I questioned how much time I’d ‘have left to carry on.
Now I realize it’s something that will always be with me,
I’ll never let go.
I was inspired by an incredible lady I met at an event one time who was 70 plus and still rocking it.
I hope one day that will be me and many more.
