I finally bought a bra today; after my 3rd trip to walmart to buy a bra I finally just did it, and quess what? I got it right on the first time! Well nearly right, fits well but still kinda uncomfortable after a few hours. That is normal with bras right?

Also got called mam again by a random person; first time a few weeks ago buy one of the self-check out helpers and today by a fastfood worker taking my order. I swear either it is my looks or that pink hello kitty book bag I carry around that gets them XD

All in all a pretty good day, feel a bit closer to actually starting transitioning! (Tried to get into contact with a local trans group but haven't heard back from them in a week :( )

Good for you! Unfortunately bra sizes are all over the map. What fits you comfortably may feel like a harness of torture for the next girl give the same frame size. I usually try them on over a t-shirt or camy so I know they fit. I have never had a custom fitted bra, though I would like to. In a bra all day long can get very uncomfortable sometimes. I do have some very comfortable bras too. That's what I know. Hug. JodyAnn

Sounds like a casual confident approach - I find beeing relaxed helps a lot - take it as it comes - life is much more enjoyable

It is very good to hear! :)

I hope you have many more days like that

Hi Luna_Luv,

Congratulations on your first bra and being "mam'ed" :goodjob:

It only get better.

The more you go out and are not mistreated your Self-Confidence will increase drastically. :)

I do not know which Transgender Group you contacted, but the CTTGS in Texas may be helpful.

They also have many local resources that may interest you.

Central Texas Transgender Society http://www.cttgs.org/resources/resourcelinks.html

There is no timeline, so take your time and enjoy everyday to the fullest.

Local Transgender Support Groups are very helpful and a good way to meet new friends.

I wish you Success and Happiness when or if you decide to Transition.

Hugs,

Carla

Congratulations on your first bra purchase! I know it won't be your last.

I am now just looking forward to having something to put in them that's not removable. ;-)

Each time you step out it will get easier and you will get more confidence. The first is always the hardest.

Hugs,

Diane

Thanks y'all, I actually really like this one since it is padded and already gives me a good bust without adding anything else to it. Bit annoying I only get mammed when I have that bag with me, but I will take it anyway (-:

The group I was talking about it the san antonio gender association, they answered me finally so I think they are just busy or something but I will look into that other org mentioned (-:

      I do spoken word acting, and give Trans 101 talks and other public speaking.  I wear make-up for those occasions.  Sephora is easy for me to get to, and has a foundation that does a good job for me and the sales folks there are Trans Friendly.  Their eye shadow pallets are also fun to use. Another source of my foundation is Ulta which carries Dermablend that does a consistent job of my lower face and chin.   I just use good old Revlon lipsticks because I ruin them by leaving my purse in the hot car too often.

      I'm not interested in makeup, jewelry or nice clothes or girly stuff.  It's made me wonder at times.   It saves some money.  If I wore a skirt it would likely  be denim.  I thought about a woman's skirt suit but nah.   Neither of my sisters are into that stuff either.  One likes peasant chic (still a 60s flower girl)  and the other - the only time she has ever worn a dress was at her wedding.  Jeans at all other times.   Jeans and t shirt here.  Content being a girl.  Weirdo. Weirda? Never mind.

      @Ladypcnj Before posting links to other group's websites, PM one of the Staff (preferably an Admin) and have them check that site out.   We have specific rules here regarding age appropriateness and would need to know that the other site is in line with those rules.  We do have members here between 13 and 18 and other sites need to be safe for that age range, legally and otherwise.  Also, we are not a dating or pick-up site, not do we allow people selling things to advertise here.  As I said clear the link with a moderator or admin before posting it.  Mod's and admins do check out posts and if we find problem links we will remove them and notify the OP of a rules violation.  Go to https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules to understand where we are.

      I raise my hand in the group, I have a question and a suggestion... is it allowed to share other new lgbtq+ website links here? 
    • Ladypcnj
      Yeah, ELF is a good brand, another brand is Revlon ColorStay last 24 hours.

      Sir is good, as well as mister! I don't mind Mx. but my brain's first thought is a mixer.

      giggles..sounds much more comfy   I'm on 5 minute break outside n wondering if i can open my blouse..oops..maybe not ..laughs

      I really don't think that's a good idea. The unity of the LGB and T community is historic and has been central for both groups rights. And the vast majority of people advocating for splitting the two are transphobic LGB's who are broadly condemned by the community anyway.

      Congratulations, and best wishes as you move forward.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      A bit late in updating, but I've had the draft of the official diagnosis and have (as yet unconfirmed) an endo consultation next month.   Next to arrive will be the supporting documentation for my new passport application for my correct gender.  This will then be my official ID for all the other updates - bank, tax, payroll etc.   It just feels good to to be proactive again rather than waiting for other people to move at a leisurely pace.

      I like ELF brand cosmetics, I can pick them up at JC Penny.    I wear makeup everyday, but mostly just very light makeup.

      Charlize, Mindy, and April Marie, thanks so much for the warm welcome!!  I can already tell that I am going to feel at home here and I look forward to interacting and getting to know everyone!!                                            💗 Cynthia

      Hello & welcome, @Ali_Genderlfuid! Look forward to learning more about you.

      Hi Mae Be, whenever it comes to makeup, there are so many different bands to choose from. Picking out the right makeup comes with trial and error, until you find one that works for you and blends well with your skin tone, some makeup products can leave the skin feeling oily. It's a good idea to look at the labels on the makeup product to know what the creators put in the makeup, just in case skin allergies. Once you found the makeup brand, you can add it to your shopping list, good luck
