I did my best from the 60s up to 2020. It was pretty quick after starting HRT that the regret over all that waiting kicked in.
Almost all the time, the question is more how well do I do it? Pretty much only wear the old pre-egg crack clothes to mow the lawn or shovel snow.
Not objective about my own face, but I did a lot of FaceApp when the egg was about to cracking, and found that a few years of HRT and some makeup got me pretty close to the same look I got from...
I had similar patches of lost hair on my legs, don't know why, so a no-filter in-law would comment on that once in a while for no good reason, the only real way to get rid of that situation is to...
The first (sports) bra I purchased in person was at the self scanner register and of course it didn't want to work, I played it low key but was a ittle nervous
If that happened now I'd just be...
My wife gave me a couple sportsbras a while back, later I said something about her getting them for me when discussing something related and it was then she let me know that she had picked them up...
Mine are still small enough to hide easily enough, if I felt something needed hiding just wore a sportsbra. But see plenty of presumably cis men out there in the world with bigger breasts than me.
Presumably physicians are aware of what 'normal' levels are for the age of the patients they see?
The appointment was part of the process of going on HRT, had to get a routine physical to be given the go ahead. He's in the same group as the endocrinologist, so I was being openly me, he just...
Didn't have them tested until the realization I was actually trans, the doc asked me if I was already on HRT when the first results came back since they were not quite in the 'typical' range.
Had another experience of getting gendered the way I like but wasn't expecting when going through security for a redeye flight, was in raingear, no makeup, masked, with a passport that hadn't been...
We have a fairly low key Pride event in our town now, and I had such a good time volunteering and such at the first one that I came out to a couple people I sorta know who don't follow me on facebook...
When I came out to my wife she did ask 'what else are you keeping secret?' and I said that just the one big secret was plenty to deal with.
I wouldn't have self identified as trans to a survey until I finally accepted it, but when I was believing I was 'just a crossdresser' I'd put myself in the T category in my own head, would not doth...
If you asked me in 2019 I'd have probably say no, not me.
Cut to 2022, almost 2 years in on HRT wondering why I denied myself so long.
One of the many thiings that led me to my 'journey' on the way to deciding to transition was joining the online community and reading stories of underdressing or being happy as a man who just wears...
Visited a college friend maybe 10 years after graduation and wondered if the Victoria's Secret catalog that was in his mail that day came for the same reason it came to my bachelor pad.
I had troubles when covid had us all at home and my crossdressing time virtually vanished. Ended up just playing with genderswap on FaceApp and Youcam makeup app to try to survive, and somehow the...
It was another work from home day, but I did a post on facebook outing myself to a few people who are too far away for me to have had that in person discussion. Hearts and positive comments, nothing...
Sometimes if someone glares at me I remember that I sometimes may be giving people a look if they're looking at the exact section I want to rifle through, maybe they're just annoyed I'm in the way.
I'm thinking now about how I went looking for a specific bit of shapewear at a local Macy's showing the SAs that it was showing up as 'in stock' on their website on the phone and that was a modern...
Kept it hidden from both wives. Until summer 2020 when I came out as trans to second wife. Her (incomplete? grudging? evolving?) acceptance I am guessing is more than first wife would have given, but...
Good to know, I ordered 12s since my male size is 11, but they were too long as well as too wide. Some trans women say that their feet dropped in size on HRT, maybe that's happening here, or it's...
I got some shoes from them online, they were too big, took them back in person, was asked something about why 'she' needed to return them and I said 'she is me' and the SA immediately switched to...
"Never accept criticism from someone you wouldn't go to for advice"
I try to remember that overall I'm happier out in the world getting the occasional odd glance or weird verbal interaction than I...
