There’s something so beautiful about discovering new layers of yourself — especially when it comes to femininity. For many, the desire to express that softer, more sensual side doesn’t fade with age — in fact, it can deepen. Once life slows down and expectations lift, there’s finally space to explore what’s always been quietly calling inside.

Today’s question comes from Marc, who writes:

“Hi, my name is Marc, and I’m a 60-year-old man. I’ve been wondering — am I too old to start exploring cross-dressing? I must say, all the different breast forms are absolutely gorgeous! I think I would love to experience the weight of a pair of breasts — and, of course, to look down and see them too!

I am a little hesitant because I’ve never considered myself very handsome, and I feel I might need to put some work into my face to feel beautiful and sexy. From what I’ve seen on your website, the ladies at the store seem so kind and knowledgeable, which is very encouraging.

Hugs and kisses! P.S. I’ve always been interested in and intrigued by all things feminine.”

You’re never too old to have fun exploring these things! I’m friends with plenty of folks who are even older who dress up regularly (probably more often than me, in fact). I think most of us who indulge in the pastime have come to accept that we’re probably going to be doing it on some level for our entire lives! Have fun experimenting with the different forms too. I’d recommend starting small and modest before working your way up to slightly more extreme sizes or high quality models if you’re new, just so you can get a feel for what they’re like to wear, either in a bra or via adhesive to the skin. The BF Store has a load of great resources to help you with sizing, etc, if you’re not sure too. Enjoy!

Never too old! Go express yourself and have fun! I have a pair of the Hera and a Gold seal Naked! They both have different functions but the weight is real. And it’s definitely a new feeling having something that you’re not used to having!

Hi Marc! Thanks for asking this, you are never too old to do anything, whether it be sky-diving, changing a career or in this case, crossdressing! No one is perfect in the looks department (look at me 😂) and you’d be surprised what makeup can do. I do hope you get some breasts, the BF store has loads of options to suit any budget or look you’d like. Hugs and kisses back❤

No. Of course not. As long as you have a body, it’s never too late to dress it however you please.

As we age, our bodies and face tend to evolve based on our genetics and chromosomes and hormones. You probably, well, look like a 60 year old man. I look like my age, and I look like someone who has XY chromosomes and testosterone. I have never taken estrogen or done anything medically or with medication to alter who I am. When I want to present en femme, I have a LOT of work to do. Or rather, my makeup artist has a lot of work to do.

There’s no correct way for a woman to look like. All women have different facial structures and shapes and body types. There is no outfit that will flatter EVERY human in the world. Some clothes are designed for certain body types and clothes that minimize or enhance different features.

When it comes to makeup, there are countless options for shades and colors for foundations and lipstick and concealer and bronzer because all humans have different skin and different skin colors. My wife and I have completely different face shapes so we have completely different makeup techniques.

Learn what works for YOUR face and YOU skin. If you can, schedule a makeup lesson at a salon. They can teach you techniques that work for you and recommend products for your skin.

Love, Hannah

Marc, you are definitely not too old to explore this side of yourself, and I promise you’ll have so much fun with it.

Breast forms are a fun place to start — I recommend getting in touch with us so we can work together to find the perfect size, look and the weight you’ve been dreaming about. Once you’ve got that foundation, slip into lingerie or something silky that makes you feel sexy — it’s amazing how quickly those little touches can transform how you see yourself. (My personal favorite secret weapon is a good corset). Wear it as lingerie, or pair it with a pencil skirt for a vintage-inspired, sexy look). And don’t forget to invest in a high quality wig that makes you feel beautiful and feminine!

This journey is all about discovering what makes you feel feminine and sexy, so give yourself permission to express yourself! There’s no right or wrong answers. If one of these things doesn’t speak to you, then change it for something that does!

There’s no expiration date on self-discovery — and no age limit on beauty. Whether you’re slipping into something soft for the first time or simply exploring a long-held curiosity, what matters most is how it makes you feel. Confidence, joy, and sensuality aren’t bound by youth; they’re awakened by authenticity.

So take your time, experiment, and enjoy the journey, Marc. You deserve to see yourself the way you’ve always imagined — beautiful, feminine, and entirely you.
