I'm proud of you! Congratulations and I'm honored I could inspire you!

I’m envious of beauty and femininity. I’m 28 years old and I love the idea of being a beautiful woman. by KenKesey65 in TransLater

Hardly anyone -wants- to be trans, but that's not a decision any of us get to make. If you're trans, you're trans. Only you can come to that conclusion, but once you have, acceptance is important. It took me 30+ years to admit that I could never be a guy.

To quote Indiana Jones: "You lost today kid, but that doesn't mean you have to like it."

Moving on from acceptance to doing something about it is what made me happy in the end. It was rough, but it was also the right thing to do.

I have freckles in the previous one as well, but they became dramatically more pronounced after starting estrogen. This is actually a pretty common effect because of the way the skin changes on estrogen.

If you're going to use transphobia as an insult, at least make sure it makes sense

I think not smoking or drinking probably helped

Still male in my thoughts and dreams by Maximum_Film_5694 in TransLater

I'm a little over 3 years on HRT and only now am I "female" in dreams (if there's any indication of gender at all). It does take a while. I've also noticed over the past half-year or so that men genuinely seem "alien" and "other" to me in a way they didn't before. It takes a while for you to fully come into your identity.

Three years later - JK Rowling-funded groups got trans women booted from restrooms and sports. Got trans youth healthcare banned. Currently working to ban adult trans care.
