Thanks for sharing this. I'm 74 now and gender dysphoria is something I struggled with my entire life. (I'm also married and it's don't ask / don't tell around here.) At this stage of my life, it doesn't much matter anymore. But 60 was the age at which it really hit me hard for a period of time. And I've read, on transgender forum websites, that this is not an unusual experience. Anyway, thanks for sharing your situation. Hope your music lessons are helpful!
