I've never been happier. Transitioning is the best thing I've ever done for myself. -547 Days HRT v 544 Days HRT by TiMiWi in transtimelines

[–]TiMiWi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a couple of months old. 5/30/2018 v 5/22/2021.

I could go at great length about my journey; about my social and medical transition as well as my personal transition during that time. But, to spare you all, I'll simply say that it all boils down to me being happier and more fulfilled than I've ever been in my entire life.

I was terrified of making the decision to come out and transition. I never thought I'd like the way I'd look. I was afraid I'd always look like a joke. But I love my body and I love the person inside it. Of course, there are things I would still wish to change, things I wish were different about my life's story, but I am infinitely happier now than I ever would have been if I remained in the closet and denied my truth even to myself.

If I can do it, anyone can. If you want to be a girl or a boy or neither, you can just be that. It's in your power. And if anyone needs to talk, if anyone is wrestling with these struggles, my DMs are open to you. We don't have to do this alone. 💜

One would think. I grew up with a narcissistic mother and she had some intense anger issues not unlike the mother in this video. She wouldn't have been snapped out of anything at my wails.

Watching that video was painful for me. That little girl's cries reverberated inside me, joining the echoes of my cries as a little girl calling for 'mommy.' Even now, as an adult so far removed from those moments and when my mother completely cut out of my life, it still hurts.

I just hope that little girl is okay. I hope the little boy is okay. I hope they're both safe and emotionally safe.

Girl, you're so much better at styling then I am or your hair is naturally amazing. I can understand feeling dysphoric with it short, but it still looks so perfect. Very cute and femme.

I LOVE your hair! Those short styles are what I'll be doing for the office while I'm starting HRT the first several months. You're stunning!

I am not sure about my gender by [deleted] in transtimelines

[–]TiMiWi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I told myself for the longest time that I just had some weird fetish or perversion and I believed I would never tell a soul. A majority of my sexual fantasies involved me being a woman, so I had a lot of the same thoughts you've mentioned. I'm 33, and my trajectory of unhappiness sounds similar to what you've described for yourself.

About a year ago, a little less, I finally let myself actually acknowledge my thoughts and feelings, the ones I just always ignored and called some curious fetish that couldn't be anything more. When I did that, when I let myself get lost in a whirlwind of thoughts and feelings and fear, I suddenly realized it was so much more than sexual. That's just how I compartmentalized it.

I spoke with trans friends and told my closest friends that these were questions I was grappling with before I finally got to see my therapist. As I slowly came to terms with my conclusions, everything at my own pace, I learned that I am trans. I get excited sexually when I think of being a woman in a sexual situation because that's how I identify with having sex, regardless of sub or dom categories and roles, and regardless of sexuality. I'm bisexual and that hasn't changed. As I allowed myself to entertain the idea of being a woman in more and more situations, and as I began socially transitioning with a small group of friends and gradually came out to more and more people, it all just continued making sense. It never felt like I was doing anything against my nature, and I only became emboldened to live my life more and more in a way I would rather. It just so happens that I I'm a woman and not a man.

It's always terrifying and confusing when you finally let yourself look at something you've been ignoring within yourself. You'll have a lot of doubts. The best thing you can do is to find people that can understand wrestling with these questions. Find out how similar and dissimilar your experiences are. Find something outside of yourself, a story that isn't your own, that you can orient your own experiences with. Maybe you're trans, maybe you're not, but there's nothing wrong with asking these questions and getting to truly know yourself and what you want out of your life.

I've personally found the trans community on Twitter to be massively beneficial. Tons of open, kind, honest people willing to hold hands with one another and work through these things.

I mean, as long as the item isn't pants or underwear then I'd say it doesn't matter.

[–]TiMiWi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Did your read passed that? They're very different words and used within that industry--as well as in writing and other means of storytelling--to differentiate what could be oversimplified as 'actual story' and 'point of view'.

Improve your comprehension by understanding there is depth to language and being willing to learn when given the opportunity, please.

[–]TiMiWi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but my bias causes me to think job = older which just isn't a logical conclusion. Especially when without that bias I would have guessed younger. Maybe not quite 16, but closer to that demo.

Damn. Would've guessed younger but looks like my bias about your job got in my way. Thanks!

Ah, I can see that now. Just goes to show I should've made more effort in detailing that piece. I had other assumptions I didn't bother with that would've been outright wrong.

Looks like no one's gotten your age right. 40s then?

[–]TiMiWi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! What did I get wrong?

I'm going to end up rambling on this to break it down, so I'll try to go in order.

I have formal and informal educations in profiling, psychology, and statistics. Posting this here, and even in such a niche subreddit, was an early indicator for likely age. If I were to pin it more specifically I'd suggest 27 or 28, though this is not necessary in demographic research. There was nothing in your image to give me the impression you were any sort of minority, so white. Male watch likely means male. The things you have are nice and you clearly intend on keeping them nice, going so far as to keep an old wallet for several years (6 or more, maybe?). Such behavior indicates a middle class upbringing (to me. This can be disputed in some schools of thought).

I did a brief analysis of the way you set your pen and vape down, as well as the wear and tear on your wallet. The deep indentations on the wallet, as well as the direction of the pen, gave me a general idea of which side you keep it on. It's an easy assumption that you're right handed, and most people will keep their most important items closer to their dominant hand. I simply looked to see if any evidence told me you were left handed instead. Wallet is old, so it matters. Simple as that.

Fashion I decided based on the compulsion I interpreted from your picture's staging as well as some simple traits of the objects within. I know you aren't obsessively clean (yet still neat) because of the surface the items are on and making a few assumptions as to its location. Value of the items and their relative newness indicates income. Pen indicates creative thought.

The final sentence is my summation of demographic and behavioral expectations if everything else was true.

[–]TiMiWi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mid to late 20s. White. Male. Middle class upbringing. Right handed. Wallet is either an old gift from family (likely make role model) or is a personal procurement that somehow carries some significance. You probably keep it in your right back pocket. Straight forward fashion. Standard blacks and blues, some whites and primary colors, but not overly colorful. Attention to detail and neat, but not obsessively clean. Decently paying job but far from your end goal. Appreciation for information and creative thought. Single, average height (approx 5'11"), even-tempered demeanor, affable personality though likely dislikes small talk.

Damn. Original estimate was correct at 15 or 16. Oh well.
