    I’m pretty happy, aside from my voice. I’m three years in at this point and the HRT has done it’s magic. I can tell I at least sometimes can pass visually because men online have started condescending to me and being kinda creepy sometimes. I wanna lose more weight so I can fit into more clothes etc, but am otherwise pretty happy with my appearance (at least on a good day, I still get intense dysphoria sometimes).

    My voice sucks. I’m not exactly outgoing and talkative, so getting the practice in to improve my voice has been hard. I’m pretty sick of the weird looks I get when I give my name in my still-masculine voice. Ditto to the staring oldies and the eshays intentionally “sir”-ing me. On the upside my social transition has gone well, my family and friends are pretty accepting, something I’m certainly not taking for granted!
