Happy mothers day!

Not a mom but getting cute to celebrate with mine! I was adopted and VERY luck to have a loving Black mother for at least the later portion of growing up <3 I appreciate her so much!!

Also Im insecure about my legs- but then I remind myself that I just have toned calves like Serena Williams

Don't mind the clutter. We're moving <3

How do yall feel about “too masc/fem to transition”

I was just meditating and thinking about my insecurities when it comes to my fear of committing to the transition. My main problems id say is feeling like

A. I’m physically too masculine/ugly for it to make sense for me to transition at all (though I’ve been making some progress on this one bit by bit, especially with the help of some beautiful people here)

B. That my… mannerisms? Personality or speech etc is hyper masculine or something? Id say I’m not very feminine personally. Or like i can be sometimes ? But my hyper masculine persona is like way more prominent.

I want to say it like doesn’t matter? I know i won’t pass in a million years and I’ll get “clocked” by people who don’t matter regardless so like logically i cannot control it so it doesn’t matter right? I’m just curious how you all think or deal with these thoughts if you had them too.

I feel like transitioning in any form is better than being a male as i am now. But my brain feels fried from fear logic and i process things from every possible angle lol.

I know by cis standards ill never “pass” my face i feel is aggressively masculine and definitely would be “clocky” lol. But im doing my best with what i was given. I just want to look how i feel yall. Ive been learning makeup one step at a time and i mean one step, i just went from that stick foundation and a sponge to liquid foundation and bought my first blending brush set. Im practicing eyeliner but i know i still look a MESS. I’ve tried everything and i cannot get rid of the hair/shadow on my lip and chin….🥹 Im trying to get all this learning out the way before i get my hrt plans going. What are some tips to make my face lean more feminine and less “this is just bro in makeup” or have my natural genetics doomed me? I have like zero cheeks on my face yall smdh. 🥲

I think if i got a gender affirming hair style that would help? but maaaan is it hard to tell people what i want without getting looked at crazy or interrogated. Around my city there’s like very little lgbtq presence and a LOT of hate. How do you find black, inclusive salons or locticians and stuff yall? 😭 if i had nice hair on my head i think seeing it would move me to tears tbh lol.

Not sure how I feel about my eye look today😭

Or maybe I'm just not feeling myself overall today but I thought I looked a lil busted and couldn't find my lighting or angle today

So I am 31 months into HRT, I have been on injections for almost a year, and now I have been on progesterone for 1 week.

I am super excited because I'm kinda worried about my breast development/size, but I also don't know if I am being impatient.

Ladies, how long did it take you to finish growing!? And how long before you noticed a difference being on progesterone? And what changes did you notice?

I have noticed some things that are different, but those changes are mainly orgasm related and I think it is because I'm still adjusting.

I would love some advice, thank you all!

!💕🫶🏾💕!

The thing I love most about transitioning.

Well first off I regret that I be on and off since I was young . But things and factors of life and acceptance wasn't strong to support coming out .so after loss of love ones and failed relationships because I didn't fit the norm of my identity to the persons I dated I drowned in working and eating and drinking .I had a health scare a mild stroke then a weak heart muscle not giving up I realized I'm so much more I'm me I need to be real with myself .I looked at myself and said I'm trans not a cross dress not gay I had never had attraction to men but had a very feminine aura and nature of caring myself the neat clean well groom from head to toe type I hide my crossdressing in shame letting a few I trust know I go out I hang out with the girls admiring there confidence and longing and learning what being transgender was .I got line a shop clothes shoes make up I wanted it more and more then toys came I wanted find what like I'm older and I'm ready for my life to blossom and transition .
