It doesn’t take a lot to make me cry these days but this one got me good.

Real.

This is so lovely to read, thanks for sharing Cily. I think i got lucky starting on gel and cypro, instant effects 💖

ah this is so beautiful, thanks for writing it out

Thank you, its a nickname my wife gave me based on my IRL name :)

Cute!

how its going?

After 2 weeks I knew I that this was what i needed, and that I’d couldn’t survive going back to the way things were. I could cry, i could actually feel things. I’m now at 6 weeks. Physical changes starting to happen. I’m looking forward to the 3-6 month stint, since a lot of people are telling me that’s where the body changes start to really take hold.

If the only thing i got from HRT was the emotional changes, I’d still never stop taking it.

[EDIT: probably worth saying, im on cypro so that explains why so much changed emotionally in the first couple of weeks already. T got nuked from orbit]

I’m the friend, it’s me. Hey Eskee xx

Hey Cily (that’s such a gorgeous name). Welcome!

Me too sister. Life got better when I self accepted, then it got way better when I started hrt.

You are so very beautiful, the light in your eyes is so clear and bright. Life will still throw all it’s shit at you but you know you’re doing the right thing for yourself now. Transitioning is life saving. Now you get to live the life you saved.

Never played as a man even once if there was any choice at all.

Either way, i think I’m okay with it. I don’t mind if people see me as a trans woman, as long as they see me as a woman. The only people who think those things are incompatible are ass holes.

That’s so sweet, thankyou. Trust me the camera angle is doing me a lot of favours.

My nails have been painted constantly since my egg crack. I love the way they look painted. Haven’t done trans colours yet though.

Kindof love being able to cry ngl. It was one of the effects I was most excited for and I really love it. I cry so much now. Mostly happy cries but today was a big sad. I’m through the other side of it now mostly. Night night Brooke (from UK timezone)

Thank you sweetie. I’m trying to keep reminding myself that I’m going through puberty again right now and big emotions are a part of it.

So glad we both made it xx

Respectfully… God damn. Gorgeous photo.

I woke up this morning crying, thinking of the time I’ve lost transitioning at 38. It’s something I will always feel a deep pain about. The only thing sadder would be waiting any longer. I’ve never been happier than I am now.

Cuuuute! You look great in it

Berlin mayor: “this is an attack on our cosmopolitan society”. No it was an attack on queer people you stupid zionist fuck.

2500 cops, deployed to “protect” the parade, let this happen. Because we all know that they were really there to police Palestine advocacy and bash the shit of any queers that got too uppity.

Yo me too! I think you started like a week or two before me. Sending love!
