Transition Progress


Guest

Hi All,

Just thought I'd share my former self and how I am progressing in my transition.  I have been in transition for a year and on HRT for 7 months.

Wow....  I really did not see the changes really until now that I've done this post.  This was fun!  And I thank the old me for paving the way to the new me!!!

You look lovely dear and the smile lets me know you feel right as well.  I found HRT and simply being myself with time gave me a feeling of happiness and comfort i hadn't known before.  Storms will (and do) come but i love today.

 

Hugs,

Takes about 3 times being True Gendered while you still see yourself as too masculine (feminine) and in your old grundgies of prior life before you can start seeing the changes.  Its when you are shown an old picture from pre-transition days, and you have to think who it is in the picture for a minute or two that you have really arrived.

Wow yes interesting. I suppose In the future when I look at my most recent pic, I will find myself saying the same thing :-)

I had to look really closesly to match the facial features to compare the before and after Milani. If you hadn't said I would not even think. Two different people.

You look beautiful :)

Thank you Tracy!  My signature marking that can identify me is the beauty mark at the bottom of my neck :-)

Well that's no giveaway except to someone who knows you really well :D

Side by side it is easier to see matching features but in my opinion your earlier photo could just as readily be FTM. There is only a slight hint of Adam's apple giving a male slant.

Very true about it not being a giveaway except to people who know me!

A more current b4/after  :-)  So happy with my HRT results.  I don't even recognize the old me anymore...

Pre-transition, from your first pic with friend Becky to the pic of you in your late 20's, I see a pretty significant change.  If I knew you then and saw you later, I'm not sure I'd recognize you.  You had a baby face then!  LOL 

You made a significant change in more ways than one for sure.  I think you look absolutely wonderful and the happiness shows.

      I attend a medical day-centre in Texas for needed medical services. It's religious oriented, so not gender fluid friendly. I of course dress 100% in female attire yet androgynous to keep both "them happy", and I really don't mind.    I of course am imposed rules that no other participant is bound by. The examples are the allowed size of my backpack, or how many visits per day I can see my Representative payee.  The gender neutral restroom use was a compromise that all off us have agreed to.  Not being able to wear tanks tops or shorts that aren't "Bermuda length" are other examples of where I am restricted more than any other participant. "Bra talk" is strictly forbidden, even though their doctor and occupational therapist were the ones that told me I needed support due to neck pain.    I found myself being reprimanded by staff three times yesterday for very petty details, and they have constantly pushed for me to remove myself from the program voluntarily. I am of course someone not welcomed in the program, but federal discrimination laws prevent them from removing me. They instead are just making life miserable with the hopes that I will leave on my own.

      Nope.  I live in a rural area.  Pride events are for city folks.  The normally quiet LGBTQ+ club kind of changes atmosphere during that time, and things get a bit political.  As a non-Democrat, I avoid it.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      For me, definitely the size thing.  I'm 5'4" on a good day, and 100lbs.  I can pass as a teenage boy, but never for my real mid-30s age.  And since my husband looks older than his age, I'm often assumed to be his kid.  Or folks think there's something illegal going on.      Also, my lack of the typical aggressive "masculine" demeanor.  I don't really desire the typical masculine social role, nor could I do it even if I tried really hard.  I'm usually quiet and kind of timid.

      I am sorry for your struggles. I cannot empathize, but I can surely sympathize. I wish only the best for you! 
    • Birdie
      No, they are the only provider of services I need an my area. 😑
    • RaineOnYourParade
      My size. A lot of guys aren't 5'3" at seventeen. My hands. It's a less noticeable one, but my hands are very "feminine"? If you know what I mean. My voice. Very high-pitched. I don't just sound like a female, I sound like a little girl sometimes My chest. I've had to stop binding due to frequent aches doing so, and it's not nearly small enough to just cover with baggy clothes My family. They still call me she/her, so that's an automatic out. My anxiety. I might be able to pass better if I had the courage to correct people. Instead, I'm too scared to speak up, so I find it hard. My lack of men's clothes.   Anyone else have these problems, or other ones?

      From what I have read and heard most people are so.busy with their everyday lives and either looking at their phones or in a hurry to notice you out and about. 
    • RaineOnYourParade
      This exactly ^^^   I actually really liked games where I was required to play a male character. It felt homey, in a way. 
    • violet r
      I been play texas chainsaw massacre game most recently. It free on game pass right now. Just need a good team
    • violet r
      Anyone play war and order on their phones?  
    • violet r
      I can relate.  I have always played a female character when given the opportunity. Not really and reason except I just alway pick them since I was young

      Yes, our little town is having its 3rd annual Pridefest. I've volunteered the first two years  from setup to tear down (though I do take an hour off to eat and drink in the middle).     Then I attend a bigger one a couple towns over that has had some decent entertainment from some semi-famous folks (Laura Benanti, Patrick Wilson, Carmen Carrera, Judy Gold, etc).    This year I made sure to ask off of (weekend) shifts to attend a 3rd one where a group I'm in is in the parade.

      Hi Vicky, I agree with you, so far since the time I've been under the new treating doctor's care, she prescribed me medication, but it's for children lol  luckily  my pharmacy warned me from a phone call not to take the medication.
