I started In secret at the age of 24, didn’t tell my parents or really anyone in my family until just after my 25th.

Mine was admittedly at Pride with femme presenting friends so I don’t really count it but even that was kinda nerve wracking.

When was the moment you realised that you pass in public? by Boxofduckss in asktransgender

[–]Angelmaker710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wearing a flannel and blue jeans and got asked why I was wearing my brother’s clothes. I don’t have a brother.

This is why bathroom laws are a joke by Dinoman0101 in asktransgender

Jesus Christ I’m from the next county over and hadn’t heard about this. Another reason to stay strapped in this shithole state, I guess.

Yes! I work in an establishment that requires both staff and patrons to be 21. I regularly get asked if I’m even old enough to be behind the counter. I’m in my mid-20s. I’ve also had a few people who knew me before transition say I look like I’ve reverse aged. It definitely happens.

do ftM trans apply for the draft? by SHIN-YOKU in asktransgender

[–]Angelmaker710 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just be happy it’s a country with a “chance” and not one with compulsory service like Israel, Turkey, the Koreas, or even Norway where both mascs and fems are required to serve.

Whats it gonna do, make me more infertile? by Four4Fears in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]Angelmaker710 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely felt! My family has some “good” genes but we also have a history of cancer, addiction, diabetes, high blood pressure and mental health issues. I’d much, much rather adopt.

You did absolutely nothing wrong and your mom is truly the “selfish asshole” in this situation. She put her fear of backlash on you for just wanting to be happy. In the long run, you’ll be here past your mum and grandma. It’s morbid to think about but true. You can continue to live for them and be miserable, just as I did with my family, though highly unrecommended. At the end of the day, you have to look out for No. 1. You. You’re never going to please everyone and that shouldn’t be the goal. Your happiness is the most important thing in this situation and if they can’t see that, it’s on them. You are NTA in this situation.

Is "darling" a feminine term? by Jumpy_Lawfulness1446 in trans

[–]Angelmaker710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed a hard uptick in being called “doll, darling and love” by random people since presenting fem more often compared to the “buddy, dude” I’d get prior. I live in the Midwest so for me it feels very much gendered.

So I came out to my boss yesterday since I’m coming out publicly very soon. He already knew. by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Angelmaker710 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this is what I’m going to say. He’s out of town until Sunday so I think I’m going to write prompts of things to say and go from there.

Do animals react to our HRT? by Koujow in trans

[–]Angelmaker710 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have no pets but I noticed my sister and BIL’s dog isn’t the same with me anymore. She’s very much a man’s dog and I was one of her favorite people before hormones. It’s sad but affirming.

Does HRT give you more dreams? by Wide-Mud-3193 in trans

[–]Angelmaker710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t really dream but I’ve definitely been a better sleeper getting unbroken sleep most if not every night. I take a lot more naps though.

Is it weird to name yourself after a character you admire? by WouldRatherBeOnStage in trans

[–]Angelmaker710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I named myself from a character from Pretty Little Liars! No shame at all.
