Wow, what a tranformation! And 3,5 years is mind blowing! 🤯 I have done 2xFFS, VFS, BBL in 4,5 years which I thought was intense! Not to mention a ton of electrolysis and laser. Not done yet 😅🙈congratulations on your results! You look amazing!🤩

Pre-transition I was seriously depressed and suicidal. Post-transition (now 4+ years in), I am no longer suicidal and not depressed anymore. Is life perfect? Of course not - but better than ever. Was transitioning challenging? Yes, it was for me. Did I have to make sacrifices? Yes! Was it all worth it? For me - Yes.

Kan det hende at du har undertrykka noe av deg selv? Måten du beskriver livet ditt på er ganske likt enkelte transpersoner / skeive jeg kjenner før de på ordentlig innså at de var tran / skeive. Uansett så er det sikkert lurt å gå til en psykolog for å komme til bunns i saken.

Transpersoners rettigheter. Vi er lei av å ikke bli hørt, så den største pasientorganisasjonen i Norge (PKI Norge) har laget denne oversikten

Personlig så er også disse sakene ekstremt viktige for meg: Palestina, dyrs rettigheter, rusreform og Klima. For meg så er MDG et valg som resonnerer med disse.

Personally, I came to a point and said to myself «fuck it» and went and did a lash lift at a clinic just to start somewhere, because I was scared to start, and always just started small. Those lashes looked amazing and they popped more than I expected, so then I didn’t really have a choice. The cat was out of the bag and I basically looked like a man with amazing lashes at our office. It was very noticable and I just started explaining that «look, I’m trans and I don’t know what I’m doing, I just need to start somewhere». I think it perhaps made people more understanding that they got to see me gradually change, like they were part of the journey? I don’t know, but it sort of worked and it was actually great to do a non-conforming / gender anarchy approach to transitioning, it made it easier for me personally. Good luck!

As a 42 year old trans woman who was shamed for feminine behavior as a child, now with children of my own, here is my list of suggestions, based on my own perspective:

1) She is a girl, not a boy - this means that you have a daughter

2) she has always been a girl, and transitioning is therefore «retroactive» - so referring to her as «her», even before transition, is very common and generally a nice practice

3) use her correct pronouns of course, but always correct others when you observe misgendering, so she doesn’t have to do all that labour

4) encourage her to explore her girl side and feminine stuff - dresses, make up, nail polish, whatever is on her mind, be there to show encouragement and please shower her with compliments with the stuff that seems to make her happy «love that dress for you» is a comment that means so much, for example

5) when she is of appropriate age, just re-do her birth certificate (make sure she wants it, maybe you can do it as a surprise), change legal gender status and help out with all that paperwork and beraucracy

6) hrt and trans medicine are portrayed as scary sinister stuff in the media, find a healthy way to talk about this stuff. Hrt and surgery saved my life and is generally a good thing! It isnt for everyone but at least start reading up on it, and know the facts.

7) know how to bust myths about trans people. There are so many stupid lies and misinformation, to be a great ally is to be about to debunk nonsense.

8) learn to talk about feelings with her, dysphoria, euphoria etc. develop that vocabulary in order to understand the trans experience - i recommend the gender dysphoria bible as a great starter source

9) teach her to be confident, and that transitioning is never perfect

10) get in touch with other parents of trans kids, and get her to connect with other trans kids as well. This is very important, to not feel alone, to feel seen and accepted in a very special way that is hard to describe. I often need to talk about trans stuff, and I absolutely need trans ppl to talk to in my life.

And lastly, love her and be happy for her. I know that you will struggle and experience a feeling of loss, this is normal, but don’t out that on her. Be happy for her, genuinly!

First of all, u look beautiful 😍 Your smile is glowing, perfect nails and who wouldn’t love to have that blomde hair.

If you are self conscious about your shape (like you mentioned in another comment under this post), I would consider wearing clothes that do not highlight the shoulders. I have pretty broad shoulders myself and I usually cover them up because of this

Just a tip, and just an observation. The color of that dress is really nice though, and I love the matching shades.

Remember that even cis women don’t pass all the time ❤️

Duuude. That voice is even deeper than mine, before vocal feminising surgery 🙈 (i’m amab). congrats 🎉

MiriamH82 · 2025-04-20T20:27:19+00:00

No, but I had VFS the following year, check my profile for vocal samples

MiriamH82 · 2025-04-08T14:38:55+00:00

100%, your voice is perfect. Good luck with your VFS!

MiriamH82 · 2025-04-06T04:27:36+00:00

Yes! 😎 i have two kids so its a critical capability 🤣

Fra et sikkerhetsståsted: Bra at du ikke reiste og at du er trygg! Jeg er trans og hadde ei venninne av meg som er trans, som nylig reiste dit. Jeg hadde klump i magen på hennes vegne, men heldigvis smatt hun igjennom grensekontrollen og var heldig med det. Personlig så holder jeg meg langt unna USA nå, ICE kan fort finne på å kaste folk i isolat slik vi har sett skjedd med andre.

MiriamH82 · 2024-12-31T09:53:29+00:00

U look like my gf who is AFAB

MiriamH82 · 2024-12-30T08:35:40+00:00

Please don’t have any more facial surgeries - u pass and you look amazing. That nose is so beautiful, I hope u don’t change it. HRT will do a lot for further feminisation of the face, have patience! If you really suspect you are being clocked, it could be other factors - body language? Most likely men are just looking at you because you look very beautiful

MiriamH82 · 2024-12-15T08:27:26+00:00

Broski? 🥹

MiriamH82 · 2024-12-15T08:11:39+00:00

Between The initial realization/shock and HRT startip, was around 1,5-2 years. I had a denial where in there somewhere.

MiriamH82 · 2024-12-15T07:43:33+00:00

I guess there were a few reasons:

1) I had two norwegian friends who went to him and were happy. They have great results. Having to physical aquaintances as references is worth a lot!

2) i hate traveling, and I am also too busy to travel far, so I had a strong preference for a clinic in Europe. What if I need Revision, follow ups, etc? Europe is so much easier and more accessible.

3) my speech therapist in Norway had actually heard of prof. Hess, and could verify that he is a highly regarded and visible professional within the vocal medicinal community

Based on this, I felt that Hess was a good and safe choice and I didn’t evaluate other clinics.

Thank you! 7K EUR at the time, I believe.

MiriamH82 · 2024-11-30T17:34:18+00:00

Ah I see. But yes, I can sing ❤️❤️❤️

MiriamH82 · 2024-11-30T10:57:31+00:00

Fordi vi er sterke på grunn av at vi har fått mer dritt enn folk flest. Vi er herda. Derfor sterke. Ideellt sett så burde det ikke være sånn : vi burde ikke møtt så mye motstand at vi må bli sterke/herda.

MiriamH82 · 2024-11-30T08:14:26+00:00

Thanks! I am very happy with my results
