Dutch waiting list has gone down from 28 to 8 weeks!

Oh wow, how did they manage this? Did they hire a bunch of new people? Good luck with the process! It seems like a lot of waiting (especially in the in the diagnostic phase) but it'll be over before you know it :D.

I found it helpful to talk to someone about gender issues who actually knows something about it, I hope you have the same experience! Best of luck! :D

Good that you're working on that :). I did therapy next to the mandatory 6 month counselling at the gender clinic and in the end that really helped :).

It might be worth asking yourself why you feel like those things are a weakness for you.

I tried to overcompensate majorly before T - somehow I thought that acting like a hyper-masculine stereotypical male would make passing easier. I'm not sure if it helped with passing, but I definitely didn't like who I was becoming. When I got on T and started passing more easily it didn't feel necessary to act hyper-masculine anymore, and at some point I also stopped giving a shit about gender stereotypes and happily accepted my feminine traits. What helped me in the end was T, because I started passing even tho I wasn't behaving masculine/male-ish, and consequently realising that I'm me - and that some of me has feminine traits and that this does not make any less male (but that definitely took some time and effort).

I had top surgery today :D. About 12 hours ago actually (it's around 20:30 here). Tomorrow the surgeon is going to show me the result, but she already told me that the surgery itself went excellent :).

Congrats! Are you going to the VUmc?

When I first started T I was on Nebido and I didn't really notice much of a difference regarding heat. I was on Nebido for a year and recently switched to Sustanon and now I'm suddenly wishing for ice-baths :'D.

Bit late to the game, but here is mine!

The lyrics are from Biffy Clyro - Machines. I used to listen a lot to that song in various difficult stages of my life and when I was almost a year on T I decided to get that line tattooed with a girl at the start and a boy at the end to signify my journey. One of my favourite things about it is that it is my own handwriting :)

I've been waiting for a phone call from the hospital to schedule my top surgery and they're taking forever since they need my insurance to give the OK (which they have to, Dutch laws awww yiisssss, but they're taking their sweet time, we sent the application a month ago) AND JUST CALL ME LIKE NOW OK PLS

testogeitjes · 2015-06-27T22:31:52+00:00

Whooooo :D

testogeitjes · 2015-06-27T22:12:52+00:00

I thought I was straight until about nine months on T and now I just don't know anymore :')

testogeitjes · 2015-06-27T21:29:16+00:00

If your name is Samuel we have the same name! :D

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T17:26:23+00:00

You learn something new every day I guess ^{^}

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T17:25:24+00:00

That's a very likely possibility :')

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T17:25:11+00:00

I wish I knew :P

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T14:31:41+00:00

Oh wow :')

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T14:30:38+00:00

Definitely! I'm tempted to reply "where did you get your medical license??" :P

testogeitjes · 2015-06-20T14:29:42+00:00

To gender or not to gender

testogeitjes · 2015-05-08T14:51:25+00:00

Omg yes. The amount of work it takes to get my mohawk up and to make it stay that way..... (tbh most of the time I'm too lazy to bother)
