Hi Everyone,
What is/was the first step of your transition? Over the years I've heard people say it was electrolysis, the first visit to a gender specialist, first time out dressed, first time to a support group, first dose of estrogen, telling your SO, telling your boss, etc.
I think for me it happened yesterday. I shaved for the first time in almost a decade. Hadn't seen my own face in that long. Still getting used to it. Is she in there? What do I have to do to get her out the rest of the way? My wife seems stricken/gone silent from it. Perhaps when I look back the first step will be remembered as something else. But for now, it was an encounter with a razor and some lotion.
How was/is/will it be for you? What constitutes the beginning of transition?
