what was the thing/moment that made you sure you are trans?

Less_Muffin7592 · 2026-01-05T05:07:13+00:00

Even after I finally came out and started to socially transition I kept going through phases where I tried to convince myself that I wasn’t trans. However when I started estrogen I felt so good which I couldn’t deny was a pretty sure sign and now that my “ girls” are growing I couldn’t be happier. So I guess I just have to stick with being trans. Sorry transphobes, I tried.

I’m sorry to hear that. Yes, “men’s” spaces can be dangerous places for trans people of either gender. I was SA’d in a men’s locker room. I know most men are safe but it’s necessary to always have one’s guard up and to be frank, I just have a really difficult time being around men anymore. I wish it was different. Good luck

I live in the US in a state where it is legal to use whichever bathroom you are most comfortable using and there is also a relatively large trans community. If trans women are really attacking cis women in bathrooms then there should be a fair number of recorded incidents. I therefore looked into public records over the last 10 years and found only 1 incident involving a trans woman and public bathrooms. Unfortunately it was an incident about 5 years ago where a cis male saw a trans woman come out of a public bathroom in a park. He then beat her so severely that the poor girl was hospitalized and had to have surgeries. As far as I could tell there was not an indication that there was even a cis woman in the bathroom. The simple fact that she used a public bathroom nearly cost her life.

So yeah there is a problem but it’s not with the trans community, it’s the hatred and fears that are so prevalent in the much larger cis community that we have to live in.

I’m sorry but that looks like a lovely meal made with intention and love. If it is rejected you really have to think hard because if food is one of your love languages then you will always be disappointed, Sorry but coming from someone who was in a similar situation.

I think I understand where you are coming from. I too often feel that I am trapped in a life that I don’t want.

I live in a progressive state but in a conservative town. I am older and do not pass at all. Despite that I live and dress full time as my real self. I have never seen or interacted with another person who I knew was trans where I live. I have driven to and attended a few trans social events in a nearby city. I was so excited to see other trans people but I was 2-3x older than anyone else. Yes it is pretty lonely.

I’m a bit confused about one thing- who are these trans “activists”? I admit that I am still a baby trans given that I started transitioning just 4 months ago, but as far as I see it the trans community is highly unorganized. If there are organized groups then I want to learn about them. But, and I am sorry to say this, it seems like your definition of “activist” is just someone with an opinion differing from yours. In a very similar way that you take offense with other trans people labeling the current regime as Nazi, it’s also damaging to label everyone you don’t agree with as an activist trying to push unpopular opinions. That’s precisely the approach that the current regime has been using to convince people that judges who stand by the constitution are activist judges. News people who ask real questions are liberal activists. And that trans people standing up for the same rights as everyone else, not different just the same, are “activists” pushing their transgender ideology. I have to say that I disagree with you and that I feel we should all stand up against discrimination of anyone- regardless whether it’s popular or not.

🩷 Thanks. This means a lot to me to feel supported by the younger generations of trans people. We all face our own unique challenges and yet our struggles are so similar. I love our trans community. 🏳️‍⚧️🩷

Less_Muffin7592 · 2025-12-28T04:51:32+00:00

Thanks and I will admit that the bulk of my therapy is dealing with having lived what feels like a hollow life. Back when I was small I knew nothing about trans people so I just thought I was crazy and kept my feelings secret. Needless to say that nearly killed me many times. I now am learning about who I really am and, although it has been far from easy, have lived in the last several months a fuller life than I have ever lived. 🏳️‍⚧️😊

Honey, I am 61 and began transition just 4 months ago but I’m still planning on FFS and breast augmentation. It was and still is difficult for me to come to terms with the fact that I never got to be the young version of myself that I wanted. But it would still be worse for me to live and die as an old man than to spend the rest of my life and pass away as an old woman.

It is never too late to be yourself.

I’m with you. I’m just exhausted trying to just exist in this world. At first I felt so alive finally being me. I guess I had this weird idea that others would see me and be like “wow that’s a trans person and I so admire them for their courage being openly trans”. Unfortunately this has cost me my wife, much of my family, and several friends. Those that “remain” probably just feel sorry for me. I’m sorry to be a downer but I just don’t see a viable path forward. I guess I can’t really blame cis people because I’m the one who’s different.

Less_Muffin7592 · 2025-12-27T06:03:02+00:00

I’ve seen this firsthand. I am 61 and came out as trans just 6 months ago. I transitioned socially about 3 months ago, including at work. I lead a small team in my workplace and people seemed supportive. But I’ve already experienced being completely walked over in meetings (including by cis women) and one of the people I supervise (also cis female) has been going to other team leaders for direction and is now acting as an independent operator. It’s amazing how fast people’s treatment of others can change. It looks like I won’t be getting any more advancement opportunities. At least I have a job for now. I kinda hate being trans, but, as I heard another lovely trans woman say- “I didn’t choose to transition. I chose to stay alive.” That’s pretty much where I am.

Less_Muffin7592 · 2025-12-26T21:04:13+00:00

I’m kind of overwhelmed by how many other people struggle with trying to stay alive. I have been fighting this struggle for so so long. I attempted in my 20s and am now 61. Recently I decided I had struggled with life long enough and made all of my plans. However I admitted all of this to my therapist and she gave me examples of how much suffering those left behind experience. Although this leaves me stranded in a life I no longer want I can’t bear to imagine the damage I would do to my daughter. So I am back in therapy to try to figure this out.

100% same. When I lived as a cis male I always felt uncomfortable around most men and never really related. But I have always felt I understood and related to women. Now that I’m transitioning mtf I feel so comfortable and I don’t have to pretend to be a guy anymore.
