    Tale as old as time.

    “I’m cool with being a guy, I only think about being a girl sometimes I guess. It would be interesting though…”

    “Heh, I look nice with this Snapchat filter… I kinda wonder how I’d look in some girl’s clothes?”

    “Wow… I think really like how I look. But like, I’m okay with looking like a guy in public. I just crossdress for fun. Though… What if I didn’t have to ‘go back’”?

    I’ve not even hit 3 months of HRT and I’m utterly astonished at how much more I give a shit about myself overall.

      Yisss this is the power of E. Only downside for me was/is that because of the missing obvious disphoria I sometimes feel like an impostor. But I am dealing with it :]

        I’ve known people who were basically ready to do DIY bottom surgery, and yet still feel like they were/are an “imposter/not really trans” at times. I think one of the best pieces of advice I’ve seen is, “It doesn’t matter that you weren’t sad with your old self, just that you’re happier with your new self”
