Pro-tip I wish I knew earlier: If you don't like your gender you can just leave it.

chokers are so cute. how did I go most of my life without wearing them?

I think the cure to my dysphoria will be shooting fascists

Just thinking today about how trans people have been more friendly and helpful to me than my own flesh and blood family has ever been. Imagine being a transphobe and punching down on people that have beautiful hearts. Couldn't be me (plus kill all transphobes).

i feel like a she/they except that i actually don't like they/them pronouns and this will never make sense to the cishets

I couldn't get a trans flag in my name, so I got ~~five~~ seven pronouns instead.

Pronoun maxxing.

down with cis

yeag im definitely a girl thing

For my entry in the girl rot championship: my dad had to yell at me to shower today

friendly reminder to wear sun screen

I know it's a dead end but some days more than others I really resent that I wasnt just born a cis girl. Like I know I've felt this way for so long. Like since I was a kid. But it really does just kinda suck. I like being trans for sure though it's just.. it's so much work and I feel like I missed so much

i know this is old news but she is SO precious to me

going between extreme girliness and "make me a genderless cube"

Just celebrated 1 year on E last week by getting myself some beautiful boots and getting a bunch of (mostly) trans friends together for dinner. First time I have ever felt like I was part of a community. It made me so happy, ya’ll.

I can't wrap my mind around someone being wierd about a trans person being a lesbian. Like who wouldn't want to be femme and date femme people?? That seems natural to me. I can't understand why someone would want something else. So you like how women look but don't want to look that way yourself? Oookay.

Today was a fairly rough day for me. Haven't had this rough of one in quite a while.

Might have been "yes ma'am'd" by someone for the first time since starting HRT? Funnily was someone whose known me since before I started. Pretty sure they were just used to reacting to my boss though. Also I didn't hear it, but just overheard someone else pointing out they said "yes ma'am". Anyways, all honorifics are all unwanted, so not something I'm exactly happy about. At least I don't think I've been "yes sir'd" this summer and only "mister'd" by like one person.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I FIGURED IT OUT!!! TRANS FLAG IN NAME

What are the chances FromSoft is brave enough to make Miquella actually trans, instead doing the weird "trans in every way that matters, but not trans"-trope again?

Doing voice lessons while driving around for work is like being paid to trans my gender.

Pride coinciding with the southern hemisphere's darkest mouths means myself and everyone i care about is really going through it right now. Yay

Learning to draw so i can draw guys smoochin other men

wtf it happened again? Some guy at work called me "ma'am" before taking a closer look at my name tag. This is like 2 weeks after some other person had to ask my pronouns?. I guess I'm more androgynous than I thought? I've barely done anything to "transition" and I'm closeted at work, but apparently I'm making some subconscious progress?

Going out in a cute outfit today.

Hope nobody mistakes me for a girl. That would be SO embarrassing~

Took my first e shot saturday and I'm feeling great so far, though I do get that it will take awhile before I really start to notice anything. Next step is getting my body hair under control.

I should post more often. I still have unbearable posting anxiety so maybe if I challenge myself to make one post a day here, I'll actually follow through. My therapist wants me to journal more and this counts, right?

In other news, I go to the HRT Dr in 48 hours. It's a bit of a drive from my house, but it's a trans/NB owned clinic that employs nothing but trans/NB people. It's taken 4 months to get an appointment, but the day is nearly here.

I love how a discussion post on i saw the tv glow can hit the front page of this website, god the culture here fucks so hard

So my visit went great. That clinic is incredible and the Dr was amazing. It was overwhelmingly queer hahaha. Several different pride flags were hug up, and the fence outside was painted in pride colors.

They also run a tight ship. Which was great since I was extremely anxious. I had to be buzzed in, they had a strict no phones out in the lobby policy, and I'm guessing the appointments are staggered because I didn't see any other patient there. Though I could hear other patients come and go from other exam rooms. They even had a separate, secluded parking area and entrance from the rest of the medical building complex thing they are attached too.

I did the usual front counter check in stuff, then I was immediately taken to an exam room to wait. All of the staff introduced themselves with pronouns, and they were so nice. All in all 10/10 worth the wait.

The day has finally arrived. I'll have to leave soon since it's almost two hours by car to get there. Even with the distance, I'm still incredibly grateful to hav a clinic like this close enough to drive to.

proud of all of u

being trans feels like i'm the child in a divine custody battle between Mars and Venus

Dongers out for the megathread

oh how many years of my life i wasted not being on E, this is the best thing I've ever done for myself

All my friends are complimenting how much I am improving at doing my makeup. Really feels affirming, as I only see what I can do better.

I got my septum pierced it looks so cuteeeeee

just got all my trans girl essentials in the mail: Skirt, panties, bralette, IPL, Julia Serrano literature, cute tank tops, the works

i have too much pride

when is shame month...

I shaved my chest and omg what used to be hated moobs are two cute little boobies and I am in love with them. Now just gotta figure out my back and buttcrack and i'll be dolphin smooth :)

Been eating so healthy and good and working out every day so they might say bye for a bit until the e kicks in but they are a sign of good things to come!
