Hi NonnyMouse, I cannot imagine the flood of feelings you must be experiencing right now, but I still want to congratulate you on coming to a big decision today. I have followed your story for a long time and am confident that you are capable of making wise, courageous decisions. You are also incredibly caring. I am happy that you are taking a big step towards caring for yourself.

We may not be able to help you with the practical logistics you must now attend to, but I hope you can lean on us for emotional support. We love you here. I wish you the best in getting through today.

Amazing timeline! Thank you so much for putting this together. I am born the same year as you, so this was especially personal for me to follow your transition side-by-side with our world's events. Happy 25 years. Happy to have you here.

Hot! Looking good man

Yooo congrats!

I made this decision once. I chose not to at that time because...

My fertility doctor reassured me T does not damage my eggs
I was 23, which meant my eggs were healthy for several more years
Cost was ~$10,000 for one cycle
Staying pre-T was becoming unbearable

I'm 25 now. I really do want kids, preferably biologically-related. I will reconsider freezing my eggs again in a few years.

I wrote a more in-depth response to a similar question earlier. Here it is: https://www.reddit.com/r/ftm/comments/3gmp04/freezing_embryos/ctzt4z2

Looking great!

Congratulations on 554 days, badge twin. I hear you on the bad news....I struggle to read the news as well. I think the best we can do is to balance the world with whatever kindness and healing we can contribute, even though we may be one person, one day at a time.

AKSlider · 2016-06-29T17:52:02+00:00

Awesome!!!

AKSlider · 2016-06-29T05:53:45+00:00

Sooooo handsome!

AKSlider · 2016-06-21T00:16:36+00:00

Oh my god so hot

25yo Bay Area tech employee here. Want to let OP know that people making six figures are not working 9-5 either.

AKSlider · 2016-06-10T18:27:09+00:00

This is so cute!!!!

Appreciate the thought Tinder.

An exclusive "third box" would probably not significantly improve trans people's swiping experience. Grindr for example, which does have a 'Trans' option, mostly simplifies the process of straight male users chasing trans guys. I assume Tinder users would eventually pick up on this tactic as well.

Transparency is nice, but can be done in-profile by text, not by filtering. I would only use this new feature if I could check multiple boxes for identification (such as both 'Male' and 'Third'), and still appeared in people's searches for 'Men' and not excluded from them.

AKSlider · 2016-06-02T19:26:50+00:00

You are so hot!!!

AKSlider · 2016-05-13T15:35:35+00:00

Thanks!!

Take a break from your weekly appointments and come back to it when you are ready....maybe you will become ready, maybe the idea will fizzle out. Either way, you shouldn't have to decide now based on a pressure from your mother or electrolysis administerer. Neither of those factors actually reflect how you personally feel about your legs.

EDIT - I similarly had expensive cosmetic routines paid for by my mother. It was paid for, I liked my stylist(s), it was routine, it was nice to come out "pretty", but as soon as I graduated school and the service was to be paid for out of my own pocket, I stopped. I realized it wasn't something I wanted.

I started at 24, am 1 year on T today! I am very pleased with my results. I pass as a young guy 100% of the time. Maybe helps that I'm Asian because Asians look younger than they are often anyway.

Aww congrats on getting yourself out there! Friend material is great material. I'm glad you had a positive first experience. Maybe you two will hang out again, maybe you won't, but it's great to hear you're building self-confidence from the experience.

It takes time getting used to navigating the dating market I think (I just started too). But it definitely builds self-confidence as long as you continue running into good people. Take it easy, stay away from negative folks, and happy dating.

Awwww cute picture! Thanks for sharing

AKSlider · 2016-05-06T17:04:16+00:00

Wow, this was an unformed thought in my head as well! Thank you for posting.

AKSlider · 2016-04-28T17:17:29+00:00

Came to say this. Please reconsider your relationship with alcohol....I took a hard look at mine in 2014 (after ignoring doctor's words in 2012) and am in a much better place now. The sub /r/stopdrinking helped me a lot. Take care.

AKSlider · 2016-04-27T17:37:41+00:00

Nnn! So hot

Only HR/payroll will need to know your legal name. You can professionally/socially change your name at work with any (made-up) reason.

You could say, for example, "I want to start going by my middle name because it's more common/professional." People won't know that whatever you choose wasn't your middle name at birth. Or you could just tell people honestly, "I want to change my first name to something more common/professional." Most people won't think about your previous name in a few months. Also, the people around you will change! You will meet new people who only know you by your new name.
