>>44992452Heres what you gotta do. >Lie to people and say your 6'0 or 5'11. Cis guys do the same thing but in reverse >remember Taylor swift is 5'10 without heels >your only one inch taller then Taylor swift
>>44992464Bro 6'2" is fucking big among males and improbably titanic amongst females
I'm 6'3"I can relateAll I can say is, it gets betterMaybe you won't be your ideal womanly self to a TBut it gets betterHugs from the state of Ohio
>>449924705'10 guys get away with saying their 6'0 all the time theres atleast 2 - 3 inches of wiggle room to lie about your height.
>>44992475When does it get better? I've been on hrt for 5 years and I'm running out of two more weeks.
>>44992475I live in Ohio and know a 6'7" hon
>>44992452I did the same thing and I'm 6'2. It's not even over, it never even started.

>>44992489It gets better after circumstances improve, not because of years passing. If you're transitioned but you're stuck in your room between degrading shifts being treated like trash...it's not going to help your mental health or your physical health.You need hobbies, friends, a community of those who share your passions and your traumas. For some it's not easy. For many it winds up being a long-distance online thing that only barely scratches the itch. But you gotta journey out there and meet real, flesh and blood people.Your bodily dysphoria doesn't go away on its own. No trauma goes away simply with time if not confronted and laid to rest. And I know...puberty was traumatic for a lot of us. When you look in the mirror I'm sure you still feel pangs of it at least once in a while. But you've got to work through that feeling and get out there. Live your life, build positive memories as a woman and gain the confidence to see a woman in your photos and in the mirror.I'm nowhere near you, nona. But I've met many people who are in your position and longer. I've met 50-year old trans women. I've met married transbians who came out after marriage. I've met DnD nerds and college students and content creators and political activists and even government contract negotiators. They've come a long way, and so many of them are truly happy and out of the tunnel. You've got to talk with those people, learn to see yourself in them, and work to internalize that the trauma is ended. You're not in the car crash anymore, and you're safe.I'm not there yet. I repped for so long that now I'm nearly 30 and only just got on an HRT schedule, and even that's DIY because of the chronic homelessness I suffered through this decade. But I'm finding my feet. I'm finding myself. I'm connecting with people who can guide me too. And while I do look in the mirror and see this godawful facial hair with disdain, I can also say, it's getting better, and will continue to do so with work.
>>44992595did i stuttersorry i won't suck your cock
>>44992602This is too much hopefuel for 4tran
>>44992452It only works if you actually got anamode. Did you ever hospifail?
>>44992608maybe at this point I don't belong on 4chan at all anymorebut if I have to choose between hope and 4chan I'll pick hopeand the shartyfags can sit and spin
>>44992579hope you die
>>44992602oh you're a babytrans, that explains it. I have a husband, close friends, but none of them matter because I don't pass. There's no amount of support or escapism that can make up for the fact that strangers on the street will never see me as the correct gender. I feel like I'm at a crossroads where I either become the Gamestop hon, a hermit, or suicide. All I need is to be a cis woman. Being a cis woman would fulfill me. It shouldn't even be that difficult a request since it applies to 50% of the population. But nooo, 6'2 heighthon that will get sirred for the rest of her life
>>44992638Well I'm sorry nona. But you're not getting anywhere wishing you were cis. That ship's sailed. I've lived a difficult, strenuous and fraught life, even for a babytrans. If dozens of trans people ranging across all age groups, races, sexualities and lifestyles can't speak with any authority about the fact it can get better, then whose statement would convince you? What are you looking for?
>>44992665They like being miserable you shouldn't engage with people like this you cant help them
>>44992665Sorry, I'm usually not that mean. I've been in your shoes before and gave my own pep talks to trans friends. I'm just having a bad week. I just want to pass, or at least get surgeries to make my life slightly more tolerable (where I live I'll never be able to afford any surgeries). I shouldn't be taking this out on one of the few people trying to make 4chan a less toxic place
>>44992674I know I shouldn't. I know that many tranons are beyond helping. But that doesn't mean that all of them are. If OP won't listen, maybe someone reading this thread will.I'm not letting this shithole site break me. It already did once and it's not going to do it again. *I* choose when I'm done arguing my case. *I* choose when there's no point in talking. *I* choose when a hardheaded person is beyond my reach. But until then I'll still give it a shake.
>>44992703Gotta respect the perseverance its a trait very very few people have. Including me
>>44992629hey, i just wish we could switch bodies. height wise anyway
>>44992700Hey, don't worry. It's alright. I came into your low point voluntarily, you didn't demand my help and sympathy from a freeway bridge during a work commute.I'm not hurt by what you said. I'm just passionate and I want to make sure that if the thread falls through, it wasn't for lack of trying.>>44992711When you've hit enough rock bottoms, you start to find solace in the fact that it isn't over until you quit. I've met people who have threatened to kill themselves over a fraction of the things I've done and had done to me. I didn't think I had it in me to make it back from that. I didn't think I could scrap together any semblance of a career or education after seven years of car life and couch surfing and nearly thirty failed jobs. I didn't think I could make friends anymore after my last relationship fell through, when his superiority was held over my head and everything I had to say was an embarrassment to him, and yet, now I have a whole circle of people who understand these feelings and have wisdom to share.I'm gonna make it if it kills me. And I hope you'll join me in that, in these tumultuous times.
>>44992464>4 inches taller than taylor swift
>>44992740>only 1 inch taller then Venus Williams
>>44992731Rn I live in Texas and I can't afford to move for several years at least. Do you have advice for being out even though I don't pass in a red state? This is the number one source of my social dysphoria.
>>44992772I admit that I don't have any advice for that myself. I can't afford clothes and makeup yet, dipping into my credit just to get my lease going at this new place, so I'm doing the face-lasering and HRT for three months as I prepare for coming out properly. That being said my managers and most of my coworkers know by now what I plan to do. But I will say, I've settled in Columbus after all my travels, and, well....you've seen how politicians talk about us in Ohio, no doubt. I've had my fair share of "jesus what if that guy knew what I really was" moments with angry and loud customers. But at the same time...maybe an anecdote about something else will help.When I was in my car in summer 2020, I was deeply afraid of repercussions for being like this. I was worried about police harassing me from my car, I was unsure where I could park legally, I never knew where I could feasibly change clothes, and I had trouble sleeping. Everyone I met felt like they were above me looking down, and I felt afraid to even be seen by others, even outside my car.But time passed. I worked jobs under the table and above board. I scrapped together enough from working to shower at motels or truck stops due to gyms being closed down, and when they reopened I got a Planet Fitness black card membership. I got a roll of fabric to put in my windows like a curtain when I slept.(1/2)
>>44992840I came to realize that, even though elevated emotions would lead to occasional incidents, especially in 2020 when I had to wear a mask just to be in public establishments...everyone was just trying to get by, and didn't really notice or care that I was homeless. What I thought was so blindingly obvious and clear to the world was a shock to people. Nobody noticed that I would sometimes have to use Walmart restrooms to wash off. People would look at me and say, really, you're homeless? But you're so clean shaven and so well kept, you don't stink, you talk so proper. Police would knock on my window when I parked in the wrong lots or something, but when I explained myself, they would let me leave in peace. Nobody thought I was drunk or drugged out, and wished me well.Once people see you're not a threat and you're not some demonic child groomer, the majority of people will ease up. Everyone I met locally said similarly, that once they were confident in themselves there was nothing to be afraid of.So, since you've been transitioned for 5 years now, you're doing pretty good. A little honfidence will go a long way. I don't know exactly how your transition is going obviously but I can at least say, if you have the self-consciousness to ask if you pass then you're not an opticsnuke. Just bee yourself, nona. :>(2/2)
>>44992860I actually have a trans friend who moved to Columbus last year, and she claims its a lot more accepting than Texas, or at least the clubs she frequents are. I had a few months of girlmoding when I first started hrt, but then my parents kicked me out and I got stuck in a cycle of couchsurfing and boymoding for survival. Earlier this year I managed to get a stable apartment for the first time in my life, but I still feel stuck in boymode. 5 years hrt and I've never had a single malefail, which makes it feel impossible that girlmode could ever work for me, especially in a red state. Not sure what the average height is in your area, but I feel so guilty for towering over everyone. At least if I was short I could pretend I wasn't intimidating to people.
