Hi, my name is Rikki and I am a 66-year-old pre-op transsexual living in Southern California.

I have come to adopt the term "gender-fluid" to best describe myself. I also like the term "bi-gendered" in this era of more gender inclusivity.

While I still live primarily in the role of my assigned birth gender, I enjoy expressing my feminine side when the opportunity presents itself. Now that things seem to have stabilized in this Covid-impacted world, I plan to take steps to live and work full-time as a woman. hopefully, 2021 will be my year.

I am a hard worker in my profession—I am a writer, editor, and photographer, call me a photojournalist—with a playful personality. I would like to explore 55+ modeling opportunities where my age and gender fluidity are not an issue and could be an asset.

As I get a handle on how things work here, I plan to update my profile once it is approved.

As distance is listed in the profiles here, I just noticed that I typically live more than 5,000 miles away from most photographers. That means that the possibility to work together is... extremely remote. But I still love looking at the profiles, getting inspired, and enjoy when other members here leave comments on my photos.
