My name is Lauren Patricia Crews.
I am the author of an new book FEELING FEMALE,
One man's desire to feel like a woman.

Now I am an elderly crossdresser woman. I am a heterosexual male lesbian: I adore women.

In 2000, Lori and I were on To Tell The Truth, Season One, Episode 79.
We portrayed Lynne and Louise Oxhorn who had written a book about being Stepmom’s together. I played Lynne and Lori played Louise.
When host John O’Hurley said I was a female impersonator the crowd burst into applause.

Working from home allowed me to pose as a woman for two years 2000-2001.

Because I dressed as any woman could have during my public 2000-2001 sojourn, I passed in stores, the post office, in Lane Bryant. I must admit it was fun. Lori and I often went out to eat, just a couple of middle-aged women.

If I needed any proof of passing in public in 2001, Lori and I joined 30 other women at Richard Simmons Hollywood location. He kissed me as he entered and we did an hour of exercises.
No one gave me a second look. I passed in a roomful of women.

When I lived publicly as a woman in LA in 2000, I had long hair which helped me look feminine.
I got a red formal dress and went to The Magic Castle six times. I was even called upon the stage to assist a young magician.
Some old men flirted with me, which I found hilarious.

Got some Carly Simon on Spotify. Put on dark blue leggings and long-sleeved top.

In 2016, I not only dressed in public, but I was a speaker at the Transgender Support Group. Even transgendered people had mixed feelings about crossdressers.
I walked in a park by the Truckee River every day. Because I dressed as a regular woman might dress, I passed in all conditions.

I have never felt like a real man. I am glad I never had to fight anyone or participate in sports.
All my experience so far was as an actor and a writer, both things that women do extremely well. It felt natural to me.

I must apologize to those who happened on my site by accident. I’m not crazy.
I am simply an elderly crossdresser feeling like a woman in my old age. It’s private. No appearing in public. And I am not suggesting crossdressing for anyone else.
I'm just Feeling Female.

I was married to two different alcoholics.
In 1979, Rhonda was rough and tumble when drunk and caused an accident that put me in the hospital.
In 1998, Lori was a sweet and adorable drunk but still a problem because I don’t drink.
November 24, 2025 at 7:23 PM
From the beginning I was shy, emotional, kind, and worshiped women in whom I became interested.
I grew up reading and watching TV. I was not interested in sports. I felt feminine but I was certainly not interested in boys. Years later I realized I am a male lesbian.
(Not me. Representative photo.)

My first sexual experience was when I was 24 years old.
I didn’t really know what to do so I was comforting, gentle, kind and anything but a typical man.
The woman who bedded me seemed put off by that.
Said I was “like a girl.”
November 24, 2025 at 7:18 PM
2009-2010, I sublimated my desire by acting in TV shows, student films and the 2011 horror film Insidious.
We also moved to Florida one last time returning to the west in 2013.
However, in 2016, I went back to dressing in public and private for about a year.
November 24, 2025 at 4:06 PM
In 2002, the doctor, Lori and I all agreed that the hormones would do me more harm. Also, I was 52. So, I accepted my fate.
A few years later, 2008, with another work job at home I crossdressed for a year but had to wear a wig.
November 24, 2025 at 4:03 PM
When I moved to LA to marry Lori in 1968, I confessed to her before the marriage.
She accepted me and we went to a gender professional to see if I was ready for the transition to female.
Since I had a job at home I lived as a woman in the public for two years.
November 24, 2025 at 4:02 PM
After I had a bout with cancer in 1982, I sublimated again into a career as a writer, published books and all.
But the desire came back in the early 90s, and I dressed in secret. Sure enough, my second wife discovered it and divorced me.
November 24, 2025 at 4:00 PM
By the Seventies, I sublimated by desire to feel female by appearing in more than twenty productions in dinner theater and community theater.
In 1980, I went out in public dressed as a woman my age would dress, and I was not discovered.
November 24, 2025 at 3:58 PM
Finally, in 1967, I left grandma and went to live with my mother Dee and my stepfather, Dale.
What the first thing I did? Dress up in my mom’s clothing when home alone.
A girl I dated thought it was funny and accepted it. But after we married she divorced me two years later because of it.

I’ve seen the original 6 seasons of The L Word, six times so far. This long-running Showtime series features intertwined stories about the lives and loves of a group of lesbians and bisexuals in Los Angeles.
I love it because it is almost all women in the cast.

I just got all three seasons of The L Word, Generation Q on Prime, starring Bette (Jennifer Beals), Alice (Leisha Hailey) and Shane (Katherine Moening) for just $25.
Ten years after The L Word, the original group of friends continue their journey through the trials of life and love in Los Angeles.

My mother, Dee, was a ballroom dancer. I dressed up in her dress and shoes and felt a feeling I had never felt before. But that summer of 1958 ended, and I began school in Wooster, Ohio. For most of my high school years I could do nothing but dream of feeling female.
November 23, 2025 at 5:29 PM
I was raised by my grandmother for 20 years.
My mother had a career thousands of miles away and I saw her only in the summer for two weeks.
There was no man in my life for 20 years.
So of course, I wanted to be a woman.

In 1958, An elementary school teacher asked Larry Camfield “What do you want to be when you are grown up?”
He said, “I want to be a woman.” Everyone laughed.
But at 11 years old my fondest wish was to be a female or at least feel like one.

The Judges were Meshach Taylor, Paula Poundstone, Robert Hays and Cindy Margolis.
Since two of the judges believed we were the real woman involved, we earned $1,400.
Two other women were also on-stage portraying Lynne and Louise.
