Well I finally hit a salon.  It’s not fancy, but I love it.

Your hair looks great @Lenneth! I hate it that my thinning hair means wigs - but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!🥰

Agreed lenneth, your hair look like it frames your face well compared to some of the before pics.  How was your experience?  I LOVE getting my hair cut. The whole growing it out thing for the last couple years has meant only 2 trips a year to the salon though.  I do have one next week.  YEA

Katie- those shoes are adorbs!

Would look great with capris or shorts as well.

For as much hair as I have, there is a noticeable thinning in the back up by the crown. I can mask it with a messy bun or if I style it just right but alas, I started HRT a couple years to late. the FFS helped with the receding temples.  I don't think my hair has continued to thin though.  I've considered whether it's worth it to do a light hair transplant procedure. I benefit from being tall so most people wouldn't notice anyways.

Good morning everyone! I finally came out recently and have started experimenting with more gender affirming looks, like a little bit of makeup (eyeliner, mascara and lip crayon) and women's shirts, etc in public and am really feeling more like my true self. I am calling to make my initial appointment today to establish care with a gender care services MD that will start my journey to transitioning. I still don't know what all I plan to do, but at least I'm taking the first few steps finally. I hope you all have a blessed day! ❤️

Everyone looks lovely as always!  Soooo jealous of your hairline @Lenneth!

 

Well, I did it, I shaved the mask I've worn for almost 19 years!  I have sooooo much more nose than I remember!!!  Lol

Now: sadly I'm "boy mode" here...  The closet comes at a price.

So today I went to the mall, to the library, to our local Wegmans and a liquor store looking like this. This should have happened yesterday for Trans Day of Visibility. It felt so good just to be me.

Guess I'll pile on @Lennethas well. Love the look. Next Friday I will have my first hairdresser experience. Haven't cut my hair at all in 2 years.

 

I don't have any pictures of what I'm wearing today, since I'm on day 3 of 4 having to wear non transgender visibility clothing. Depressing, actually.


Well I hope you love it!  And @Elizabeth Star, I took a page from your style book!

It does fame it more!  My stylist did that on purpose and layered the back more.  She did fight to straighten it, but it’s easier to lean into the curls now.  I am much happier!  Thank you!

I literally just threw his together to go visit a friend after work. I stopped at a smoke shop on the way over. As I was walking across the parking lot a random car stopped next to me and woman who was driving said she was obsessed with my outfit.  When I was in the shop the cashier complimented me on my outfit as well. Although I think she may have also been hitting on me.as well. I'm still a little too dense to pick up on these things. Regardless, I got two unsolicited compliments in less then 5 minutes.

That’s great! Remember that you will always be your own worst critic. I promise you won’t miss the Bearded Mask.

@Lenneth @Elizabeth Star Gorgeous boots!  Both of you!!  I've been having a real problem finding shoes in my size...  that I like.

We are indeed!  Thanks I needed the reminder.  All I see is NOSE!...  and brow ridge.   I was however, pleasantly surprised by my chin and jaw line, I hadn't realized how much I was shaping my face with the beard.

That was me too.  It was a big deal to me at the time.

Kept some of the hair to burn from time to time when I feel the need.

See?  You got style!   I got some compliments on my boots, but for just "throwing that together" I'd say you've got a gift.  I love the casual "bad girl" look you have going on there too.  Sort of a "Yeah, I'm cool and I know it" vibe.

Shaving mine off was a big step.  I'd had it since I was a teenager.  I'd shaved it from time to time but more just to see what I looked like without it rather than wanting to get rid of it.  As a teen I looked much younger than I am which was a blow to my ego and problematic when trying to attend certain events.  I grew the beard so people saw me as older.  I remember thinking if I was afab, my breasts would have done that without hair being on my face.  But I got so used to it it became a part of the whole "male" persona.  The battle to keep it off while I try to get more permanent solutions is a hard one, but worth it, I feel.  I'm glad you took the step and I'm totally behind you!

heading out to see a sister trio band called "Joseph". I got this crushed wool "moto" jacket the other day when I went to the consignment shop.  Wearing a mock wrap plunging top underneath. I love it when my hair comes out exactly the way I wanted it. That is not always a given with this mane. lol

Spent the day road tripping with my local bestie down the Chesapeake coast to pick up a 20 ft boat trailer with my SUV for him. Wore this outfit plus my cute fleece coat as needed. Got down there and the seller was ultra cool, had some nice questions and we were all talking boats and planes and fun stuff for like an hour. Not uncomfortable at all, even working on the trailer without getting dirty lol.

 

What blew me away, was when I was driving home with the deal closed and in tow my friend told me the story of the deal. He was talking with the guy a couple days prior and said "just so you know, my mechanic friend is transgender. If that offends you I will be willing to call the deal off with no hard feelings. If it does not bother you, then we will see you saturday." The seller responded, "I appreciate your honesty and of course you both are welcome with me. How's about taking the price from $800 down to $600 because I don't want to have to deal with the rednecks that would be inline for it otherwise."

 

That made an already fun day even better :)💯

Out at my favorite snack bar in Naha, Okinawa, Japan. The bottles in the back are called, "Keeps." Regular customers--like me!--all have their own bottle. You pour your own drinks, and only pay for the bottle. When I'm lucky, I'm invited to other people's table and can drink from their keep. Actually, that happens a lot. LOL.

      If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me).  That seems suicidal.
    • Ivy
      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far...

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.
