This is horrific!


How dare you wear a My Little Pony shirt >:VVVV

In all seriousness though, you go girl!

I'm not into MLP like many others are, it's just a fun shirt to have :P

Thank you, I appreciate the kindness :3

if only I was about 20 years younger and lived in the US .you are a fine looking yang lady and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.i have respct for the ts ladies out there and unfortunately a lot of times people don't realize it.thanks fotr taking the time to share your Personal self..

Is there something wrong with where you live and your age?

Thanks, ever since I upgraded my look it's been the one thing people mention wherever I go.
(In a positive way)

I am finding it more common that people either appreciate me, think I am brave, think I am a young girl (loving it!) or just that I am a beautiful women in their eyes.

There is a lot more to do but I am moving forward each day with a better outlook :3

On the other hand, the hormones make me feel very feminine and entirely different from my old male self... it's interesting yet very emotional.

in some ways you remind me of somebody I knew a few years ago he jest had to grow his hair and gate nice feminine frontal adornments from takin hormones. took her about a year or so to actually realize that she had become a person she felt she was visually.i aam straight but i don't think one minor piece of anatomy defines who some 1 is gender wise.i addmit looks don't mean a hell of a lot to be in the grand scheme of things but if some 1 gos too the trouble of being a woman on the outside and fees there a woman on the inside one particular piece of anatomy or what they were born under gender speaking doesn't make any difference.if some 1 looks like a lady and sees himself as one I see no problem with it. As for where I live I'm way over and Canada and i am 39! not to mention I'm not the best looking model on the lot lol .if i stay above ground another five years I'll be doing quite well.i am too old for a 20too 22 year old full of pep and vinegar.hell I think the days of younger ladies being attracted to older men are far and gone and I think that is especially the point with Asian ladies despite it used to apparently be part of their culture lol. And for the record a lot of us don't get more mature with age I admit I'm just as much a blockaded and immature as I was when I was in my teens. Very few of us actually mature much with age. Big part of why I'm single is I'm pretty up front about a lot of things guys like myself tried to hide or outright lie about.i joke alout and hit on the art/ characters a lot of people post work of ;) but faked is I mostly mean it strictly in fun.iin reality terms most women younger than myself would be board of me pretty damn quick.ironically the same goes for most women my age lol there are a lot of people around like myself I'm literally one of what you might call a Endangered species.hell people like myself are harder to mate then getting two pandas to pop out cubs lol.
if any 1 gos trying to put things in a negative direction when it comes to the fact you obviously put a lot of work into appearing on the outside way you feel on the inside in my personal opinion there either jealous or more so than not jest compensating for something.guy who bet me up in high school and a guy who was quite popular with the ladies and used to like to say things like it was guys like me who made guys like hem popular with the ladies a few years after high school I happened to bump into them in a shopping mall and quite surprisingly found out thay wear a couple;). Ironically the way I found out was the pair of them at the time looking me over like a couple of wolves eying a piece of steak. I suppose I should consider myself evil that I got a personal kick out of pretending like I didn't notice what they were doing and proceeded to walk up smile and take my glasses off lol it was at that point the pair of them got this look of sheer terror recognizing me lol. I am pretty sure that they despite quite apparently being a couple weren't exactly open about things over all and didn't want somebody who might be popping up at a reunion down the road outing either one of them the when it came to high school reunion lol. Frankly it didn't mean much to be one way or the other and it just made me think of that whole psychology thing when it comes to the majority of people who are very anti-ts or anti-gay in general.i am not attracted to guys but ive got no problems with guy on guy as long as they know the boundaries and keep their hands to themselves.i go fuyger am just as attracted to ts as i am regular women and frankly don't view them any differently than I would any other woman. I suppose that makes me broken or a hypocrite

Congrats are meant to be given. The know the feeling, (a little over a year now). Make you happy that you can finally be who you want to be. I wish you the best.

Thanks :3

Trust me, you looks already realy pretty and don't listen all that stupid people.

I've 2 transgendered friends (one of each gender) and I know isn't easy each day.

And nice t-shirt!! ^^

Thanks, and each day is a challenge I love taking.

Recently though, things have been very weird and I am trying to understand things.

My friends say it's the brain who make sometime a mess.
Courage! *hug

True, most of us make both good and bad decisions :3

If you're happy, that's the most important ^^

Looking good (also fantastic and beautiful) and that desire to encourage and inspire says you're doing good as well.

Keep it up, and if you ever need any encouragement, I know there are a ton of us out here who are more than happy to provide it.

Thanks, this is just the beginning and more is to come.

I plan to do an update later when there are... more obvious changes.

My encouragement comes from people like you and others confirming my suspicions of me being me... If that even makes sense lol

Thank you so !much for sharing this! It's very encouraging to see, and I hope to start this journey soon myself

What's holding you back?

Personal doubt, more or less

Hate to break it to you, but age, procrastination and when you take Hormones has big disadvantages.

Have you seen transwomen transitioning at an older age due to problematic situations?
It might change your mind.

The longer you wait, the more difficult the transition will be.

While I was presenting as my male self, due to family issues at the time, I spent a majority of my time doing years of psychological and self journeys that were meant to explore who I was.

Eventually, I had enough of it after the amount of bottled up lone self exploration was just too much to take.

I moved to a new State, had a few jobs as my male self and had a miraculous stroke of luck at the current place where I work when an open minded supervisor noticed something different about me and I told her I intend to be a woman.
She encouraged me to come in as Janet and the rest is history.

The kindness of someone else opened a small door that contained more possibilities than I could ever imagine.

To this day, I consider her the spark, though no longer there, that okayed my transition at work and I am fully supported.

As an added benefit, I work primarily around women, so I have had plenty of time to understand how women think, talk, walk, move, behave, etc. and adapt to it.

According to one of my biggest supporters at work, when I started out I didn't behave like a woman at all but as time passed by she noticed I behave more like a woman than a man and she is happy to correct my mistakes or point me in the right direction.

To me, my job is a mix of decent work and female behavior and psychological training that I would never get on my own.

To be fairly honest with you, transitioning at a job full of women is the perfect way to observe, practice and improve on your behavior, walk, voice and more.

Working at a job will give you unique perspectives that you alone will never understand without the aid of a natural woman.

Also, the hormones I am taking and it's effects recently became stronger and I am beginning to develop more 'feminine' feelings and feel more feminine.
Hormones have a way of replacing your 'male' thoughts and psychology and turning it into 'female' thoughts and so on.

My breasts are growing each day, bigger and bigger to the point where I may actually need an actual bra, something I was not expecting so soon.

My advice to you is to start as soon as you can, because once you mature enough you can't get that youth back.

I have this same shirt. I wear it to the gym and some guys look at me weird, but a 5'3" guy who can squat 425 usually keeps them silent.

I've always had this fear of going to a gym because my body hadn't reflected what I see myself as.

Recently, these hormones are changing that fear.

One problem is the fact that developing too many or bulging muscles is a common fear among transwomen and myself.

Transmen seem to love going to the gym to build that male body, but I fear it completely lol

Let's put it this way. It takes bodybuilders, and serious gym rats months and years to get shredded. It takes strict dieting, copious amounts of protein, and daily gym routines, pushing yourself to the limit until you can't lift your arms, move your legs. Going to the gym and doing some work on a machine, jogging and light weights will not not magically make you Armhold Musclehugger.

Going to the gym(especially with a friend) will help you feel better, improve your self mage, and change your outlook. Eat healthy, don't jam pizza in your facehole every day, and you'll do just fine.

I've thought of going to a gym to only get in better shape, not sculpt my body to look like Arnold.

You seem serious in your regimen though :3

I'm 5'3" and bench 175(I have carpal tunnel after being a truck driver for 17 years, and have to be careful with my wrists), I squat 425, and deadlift 300. I weigh 145lbs and wear size 30-30 jeans. I turn 41 on Saturday, and I have no intention of letting the white slowly creeping into my hairline slow me down. :)

Anything left to do once you're done with the hormone therapy?

Hormone therapy is done for the rest of your life, it's not a set amount of time.

Biological men cannot produce Estrogen on their own, so hormone intervention stimulates it's production due to Testosterone over-shadowing anything Estrogen.
This is why Testosterone blockers are practically a requirement.

I'm going to continue my life as normal, as the woman I envision myself being.

Thanks for the clarification.

You are welcome, but I do suggest doing some research too... it doesn't hurt :P

As one who has friends in the LGBT community, to include some of the artists that I commission, I have a boatload of respect for someone that wants to be the person that they feel they are inside.

I hope everything goes well for you in your transition to become the woman that you are, and that you want to be.

nice, I want an HRT

I'm not good with words so all I can say is good luck, I hope everything goes well.

Looking cute! Keep being awesome!
