I hate my life and I should have trooned out in high school

>>43596169
>QOTT
Not at all. My career has stalled, and what I once thought I wanted has really come into question.
I'm also pathetically a repper, so there are some biological/psychological components in question.
That all said, I might be coming into money soon. No idea what to do with it, natch...

>>43596524
This but to be fair there were no “trans kids” back then. I wish I went to college instead of military coping, I could have had a shot at not repping.

>>43596563
Time to transition

I'm 36 years old and I'm about to start university so no, not where I should be

honestly i expected to die before 25 so it wasn't what i was expecting no
being 30 sucks not just because im an ugly unemployed neverpasser but because you age out of the world, everything seems like it's poisitoned towards young adults, gov schemes and policies, charity and peer resources, etc
you're basically expected to have it together once you're 30 or fuck you otherwise

On the plus side, I trooned at 30 and miraculous starting passing at the 1 year HRT mark. I also have enough money for surgeries, so guess I'm going to Natalie Mars path

yeah true, i think most of use are one crisis away from everything falling apart, or perpetually miserable and barely outrunning it
it's sad and i don't really know how to feel about it apart from deeply pessemistic and cynical which is the antethesis of happiness - humans need hope or whatever, especially when you're expected to pull yourself up by your bootstraps after falling out the rat race

The flavor of "no" depends on how far back you're talking, but no in any case.
Transitioned late due to a late egg crack, still can't tell if my spouse accepts me as a woman or not eight years on, questioning my marriage & entire life, and it's getting harder and harder to imagine a future.

>>43596751
>most people's lives are still a house of cards.
You're telling me. I got laid off from my job in tech a little over a year ago and haven't been able to find anything in my field. Everything relevant to me is listed in big cities where I am not and can't move to, and the boomers that be have decided that working from home was such a tremendous success that we should never do it again, for some reason. I've apparently been fucked out of my entire career, we're completely out of money, and we'll soon lose the house. The last year and a half have been a recurring theme of "and then, things got worse." There's only so much the antidepressants can do to make me not want to kill myself.

Feels bad, ma'am.

>>43596941
>I kind of hate you but also genuine congrats.
I get it nona, honestly I die a little on the inside whenever I see younger trans people, even though I'm happy that they didn't have to go through the repping that I went through. The only reason I was able to pass was because I put effort into voice training, makeup skills, fashion, mannerisms, and skincare simultaneously over the course of the year. But anyways, if I can give some hope to lateshits and nonpassing youngshits that it can get better and you can make it, then I think I can be happy with my life.

>True and doesn't get less true from what I've seen.
It doesn't until around 60s, and even that's assuming you still have good relationships with people (which is extremely rare given a lot of these people spent all their time working, and in the process fucking up their kids and getting divorced along the way).

>>43597039
One of the biggest life regrets people have is working too hard. I could honestly make double my current salary, but the cost would be me losing out on a lot of time I could be spending with friends and people who genuinely care about me and understand me. The rat race is such a scam, just stop racing once you feel happy enough, and enjoy your free time.

Fucking boomers with hating work from home. It's like they legitimately think it's still the 1950s. Most unproductive group of people I've ever seen. We literally need a trans collective that can provide employment insurance and employment resources to each memeber. It shouldn't feel like our life is over if we lose 1 job, especially when we are willing and able to work.

>>43597355
It depends on if your life is in order. If it is, then 30s are actually a bit better than 20s. If it's not then it feels like the world is starting to collapse on you.

>>43597374
There's nothing wrong with transitioning after having kids

You can't really blame them, they usually wait due to external factors. Simply put, if being trans was completely socially acceptable, then you probably wouldn't get nearly as many John 50s

>>43597555
I shouldn't have been so insensitive to unemployed people, but do you really listen to yourself? What person with a pile of money would say, yes, let me risk my pile of money insuring that trans people, of all people, might one day become unemployed and make claims upon my pile of money? I mean seriously now. They'd may as well light their money on fire in a bonfire.

>>43597749
I honestly thought it was going to be harder, I still remember explaining to my then 5 year old and she just said "Ok Daddy can we have pizza" and that was it.

>>43597789
Unemployment insurance already exists in the USA, and the unemployment rate is like 5%, so your only offsetting for a small group. Charitable organizations are also tax free, so a donation made to the org would reduce your taxes. Contributions would be completely voluntary, and moral hazard managed by an employment resource network attached to it that would reduce the amount of time anyone stays unemployed. This is really not that odd of an idea, considering farming co-ops are created all the time to smooth out variable harvests. People just seem to misinterpret the mechanism for how this would work and be set up, while also being sustainable in the long run.

>They'd may as well light their money on fire in a bonfire.
Might as well say the same about all insurance. I mean, all of us are always healthy forever, right? Why waste your money on insurance, it seems irrational.

>>43597911
Lol, ok troll you got me to bite again.
>unemployment rate is 5%
Of the entire population, not trannies
>contributions would be completely voluntary
Oh, so what unemployment insurance policy just has "optional" premiums? Just dont feel like paying, but make a claim anytime... sounds right?
>all insurance
Ok, you're slowly getting warmer. Young, healthy workers who pay into the system offset the older sicker claim makers. Without that pyramid it collapses...especially with voluntary contributions.
Would you create a life insurance pool for Stage 4 cancer patients? How long do you think that would stay solvent.

>>43597825
People forget that kids have much higher neuroplasticity than adults, its just easier for them to understand it.

So 7.5% given my calculations.

Claims get denied

>Ok, you're slowly getting warmer. Young, healthy workers who pay into the system offset the older sicker claim makers.
False equivalency, older workers make more than younger workers, and there can already be a 5 year employment threshold to qualify for the org.

Honestly you just dont get how the numbers work. Now go spend about an hour or two cherry picking google searches, or stop talking, your choice.

>>43597374
I thought it was optional and it turns out that it is not. The choice is now between troondad and a dad with horrible mental health and suicidal ideation.
>>43597477
Yes this exact scenario used to play out with gay men all the time, they’d marry women and have children and wouldn’t come out for decades. Now it hardly ever happens because gay men usually feel comfortable to come out by college.
>>43597514
Thanks Nona that’s reassuring

tfw came out to my mom at 15, she was supportive and said she had trans friends in college so she knew getting on HRT was important asap.
I said nah, I want to finish running cross country in high school.
From 15 -> 18 when I finally got on HRT I had grown from like 5'6 to 6'1 and I gained a lot of masculine facial definition.
I lost a life because of sports and I want to kill myself for it

I wish I had finished with buying a house but we're on track with that too. Career-wise idc that much. I make decent money and it's not worth it to work a lot harder for a marginal difference and for the line to go up.
I certainly got a lot more from my list of things than I was told I would. Definitely not bad at all for a "fake" tranny who also committed the "crime" of avoiding the retardation known as "college". I will turn 37 in a few months.

Trooning out was unironically part of my midlife crisis.

37yo perma repper

Everything going well desu. Good job, good income, own my house, financialy secure. Several good friends and close with my brother and like being an uncle. Just have never had a relationship because intimacy makes me dysphoric so I pretend I'm asexual.

>>43596581
Honestly fucking youngshits have no idea how good they have it trannies were so fucking hated that they either passed, or didn't exist. I was thinking to myself how did I wind up trooning out at 29 instead of when I was a teenager oh yes.... trannies were so fucking taboo they were never spoken about, never showed, never mentioned the concept of transitioning was NEVER PRESENTED. First time I met a trans person was when I was 19 in college, and even then I thought they were intersex, and the doctors just worked some magic to nudge them one way or the other at birth. I didn't know anyone could transition. Then one day I was like wow, I always hate myself for looking like a man why am I like this, so I started doing some research and learned about gender dysphoria, and I was like oh wow that sounds like what is going on with me. Then I found out what transitioning is, and that you can transition, and at that point I was 26. Basically it took me 4 years to troon out from when I learned you could troon out. I would've trooned out way way sooner if I knew I could troon out. I think the concept of trooning out was hidden away unless you were like chimping out and being sent to the psychward as a kid for wanting to be the other gender... and then this arcane concept of transitioning was presented to you...

Does almost 30 counts too?
t. Almost 30

May as well you are basically there if you are 29, the zoomers already call you unc.

>>43605017
Not even hrtrepping? I don't know how you do it, but power to you man. I'm kind of afraid I've set myself up for failure for unrepping myself because now I'm all in on trooning, and if I don't make it after like 2 years hrt + ffs + effortmaxx I'm gonna have to rope.

basically the fact that the concept of transitioning was thrown in people's face enmasse at a young age turned the tide for a loooot of little trannies. If they told me in school when we had the birds and bees conversation that trooning was a thing I would've 100% trooned out before I ever got out of the public education system.

>>43601608
Ehhh, I'm not down with that. I've known some prettyboys that are content with that being a phase in their life (which boggles my fucking mind), and they look forward to true manhood. But the option should be given.

>>43605075
I mean HRT repping only works for a year or two untill you start to look uncanny and you need to just commit to it. It needs to be all or nothing and commit to the choice I think.

Having said that it depends on your environment and who you know. Trooning is the right choice if you're in an environment that accepts it I think. Like I dont think there is any winning move with this condition its just about which drawbacks and issues in life you feel better dealing with.

>>43605145
Naw I've seen a prostrat. There's some gatekeeping tranny on this board that larps about being a twink that looked fem just off of pio, truth is they are on E, but they had keyhole surgery super early on.

>>43605145
Honestly it hit the point where it was like, I am miserable and I want to rope every day, so I may as well try.

>>43605176
which is completely fine yeah. You need to do what feels right for you in your situation. All choices have positives and negatives and its about what issues you feel more comfortable dealing with.

I think I'm living the dream. But I'm insane.

37 years old bi m married to a woman who doesn't know I'm bi. It's not like I'm some down low closet case with an insatiable craving for dick and pussy though. I'm monogamous. I figured these things out about myself too late in life to act upon them. The more important part of it is being honest with yourself you know? I could be the other bisexual stereotype and constantly tell people that's what I am. Even though I've never been with a man. But I can finally admit to myself that I find men attractive too.

Strange times

I never thought my transition would go this well. starting life over at 30 is difficult (forced to leave and NC very abusive family situation) but I now live a completely different life: I have friends, party, hang out, book clubs I'm going to start my masters and sex work is going well ish so put an ease on financial stress.
it's been hard, was homeless, struggled for years to make it by while manmoding etc etc and I'm prone to trauma crash outs still but it's less and less like survival mode

>>43606511
It just seems like a very competitive, territory, environment. You have other sex workers looking to take you out , their pimps and Johns maybe crazy psycho. No to mention all the STDs , in the USA they will arrest sex workers.
Doesn't sound stable , that's my opinion don't get me wrong there's a lot of transgender sex workers out there.

Nearly 30 and I practically demolished my life transitioning at 18. Now I live in a shoebox apartment with my boyfriend of 7 years, and we barely scrape by. I live in the tiny town I grew up in, and although I pass pretty well, everyone knows I'm trans, as it was quite the public scandal. I haven't been able to get a job in 4 years. Burger King won't even hire me. My boyfriend is very handsome and charismatic but he has bipolar and epilepsy, so it has been a struggle for him to keep a job. Last job he had he built a pretty solid rapport with his coworkers, but as soon as they found out he was dating me they all started avoiding him lmfao.

I am 35 and I will NEVER get a bf it's so fucking over for me

No. My life is better than I could have ever asked for, holy shit. I thought I would be rotting in the gutter by now.

I don’t have kids; they were never a priority, but I think my younger self would have assumed I would at some point at some point.

Honestly I think it’s the state of the world and the US in particular that’s more fucked than I could have imagined as a kid.

Honestly, no. Mid 30s, married and first child on the way, plus owning a house. Wife knows I'm trans and has been nothing but supportive and continuously pushes me to transition because she can't stand seeing me unhappy with myself. Shame about my egg cracking so late but I had to deal with a mountain of childhood trauma and what little time I didn't spend partying or sleeping I spent distracting myself and dissociating. Life's pretty good right now though. Working on your mental health is hard but can be worth it anons and nonas

My callouses are beyond comprehension. Even after a 15 minute hot water + epsom salt foot bath, my pumice stone crumbles against my heels without doing anything at all. Luckily I have my foot cheese grater.

That sounds like stuff’s going well for you. Glad you’ve got a supportive wife and family. Gl whatever you end up doing :)

Same but 36. People have only ever wanted to fuck me. No man or woman has ever wanted to be in a relationship with me and at this point, I think it's way too late

I blame transphobic breeders for forcing people to repress and have kids instead of being themselves

>>43605112
I was obviously half joking but yeah, I meant the option should be available.
I'm not a tranny, just a very femfag (very technically speaking). Got myself on AAs at 14 and E at 17. I was lucky that I could access the grey market and my parents signed off later on (17 was the lower limit in my country at the time).
Now at 30 I'm looking at srs lol.
>and they look forward to true manhood
Oh, I get that. But just wanted to be a very cute man. I got what I wanted but too many won't/can't.

Going through old photos before I trooned, and I just naturally look like a tranny. I trooned because I felt it would give me a more balanced apperance, I would never be able to be chad I have big feminine lips and eyes, and tiny tapered chin. The masculine parts of me are my nose and browbone that is it.

kek even claude ai agrees I'd objectively look better getting rhino and brow work done because of how weird my face is even if I didn't have gender identity issues.

>>43610916
Are you sped?

>>43610955
Not sped at all are you? AI isn't inherently bad, and it would line up with people insulting me in the past by saying I looked like a tranny with bad plastic surgery in the past before I ever trooned.

>>43596169
>QOTT: Is this where you expected to be in your life right now?
no but i had the advantage of expecting nothing since it was foolish to think i had a future since... as long as i remember
could be a lot worse
biggest problem is the executive dysfunction and emotional instability secondary to it, but that also means im dysfunctional enough to not be able to get an impulse-friendly method to off myself, most likely

Maybe you should use it to generate a more thoughtful response, you already lack originality.

>>43611153
You don't deserve one. I already know there's no getting through to mouth breathers like you so I'm just gonna tell you what you in a way that you can understand
I mean since you need an autocorrect bot to tell you something as obvious as if you're ugly or not, you'd probably need one to tell you what any thoughtful response would actually be saying

>>43597435
I mean why does it have to be literal insurance when it could just be a tranny cabal that helps get members into jobs and the regular system takes it from there
Or is that just so-called “mutual aid”

>>43596169
30, decently happy and am trying for difficult stuff so not stunned the sky hasn’t opened (yet), got some super solid friends even if they’re too spread out for my liking
Main thing is not having a partner, been out of the game a loooong time (since before covid) due to family health crises and don’t really know how to get back in
And that partner was before trooning

I am watching right now "Queer as folk" (the american version from the 2000s) and it is making me ponder about my lifestyle as a bisexual. I am in my 30s , and I feel like I am missing something in my life.
I have friends in a small city I live, but none of them is LGBT (Except for one that lives like 500 miles away from me). In fact I am the only LGBT person in my family.
Apart from the people I dated, I have never done anything LGBT in a social context, like going to a gay bar/nightclub, or using apps like Grindr, or karaoke, or watching a musical or a Pride Parade...
Is it normal to feel kinda incomplete?
Sometimes I wish I had gay friends to socialise on weekends.

for a certain type of overeducated/overthinking person, yeah

Everyone hug your pets extra hard for me. I just had to put down my 18 year old cat tonight.

>>43604790
>you can be a youngshit or a midshit who just transitioned a while ago

I feel like back in the 00s, we mostly had the good sense to not create this much useless hierarchy and then police it. I wish more of us would realize we're all in the same dumpster.

Maybe i'm just hopelessly old-fashioned. I still see even the most irritating and bigoted trans people as basically family--just family I don't like that much.

>>43613789
I'm so sorry it's always hard :(

>>43613789
>Everyone hug your pets extra hard for me. I just had to put down my 18 year old cat tonight.
I'm so sorry, anon. Sounds like you need the hug.

41, trans’d 19 years ago. I have no money but I’m pretty and happy lol. I could use to have more friends, but I’m very blessed to have a bff who gets me, and we have fun every week. The only thing I truly feel that I’m missing is a partner. Seems straight mtfs never luck out. At this point I’d settle for an ace woman just for the romance.

I'm 24 but I have a question for >30 anons

I've been in and out of school since I was 18. Right now I have an associate's, I just got out of a year of studying computer science at a university. I've just changed my major to social work. My life feels so aimless right now. I haven't achieved any of the things I wanted to do when I was 18. I haven't recorded any music that I'm proud of, I haven't finished university, I just got out of a nearly 4 year relationship earlier this year so now I'm back to sleeping around with whatever other trans women will sleep with me. I keep looking around and finding people who are as old or younger than I am having much more passionate and fulfilled lives than me. I feel like I am more mature and intelligent as I was at 18 (not to mention more comfortable in terms of gender dysphoria, having been on hormones for years now), but with that loss of naivety comes a loss of passion and wonder, and my actual material conditions (living with parents, no career, in university) haven't changed. I'm scared that I'll reach 30 and still feel as aimless, anxious, and unfulfilled as I do now.

Does life make more sense as you get older into your late 20s/30s, or was I supposed to do that when I was 18-22? Have I already lost my chance at growth? Do you ever get the passion that you had when you were 18 back? Am I just in some sorta mid-20s slump that I'm eventually supposed to come out of, or is this genuine failure?

tl;dr - I'm a mid 20s burnout troon, am I ngmi?

>>43614111
As a gran-tran, I’ve had several bursts of motivation and creativity through the years. Almost like different lifetimes. I now think that’s normal for people. Trajectories are kind of important when it comes to a career, but don’t think that applies to anything else. I’ve seen people meet their forever guy/girl in midlife. And some of the greatest literature etc was made by seniors. Instead of the mantra ‘it’ll get better’ assure yourself instead that the future will be different. Be happy to be surprised.

>>43612317
>Is it normal to feel kinda incomplete?
I thought it was fairly common for bi people to want to have experience with both "sides" of their sexual orientation, and queer culture (given that they are a part of it). I don't know though. Sounds like a very nice and harmless thing to want.

>I am watching right now "Queer as folk" (the american version from the 2000s) and it is making me ponder about my lifestyle as a bisexual.
that show was one of the contributors to cracking my egg as a little gayden in 2003 or so. my sister had the VHS tapes.

I turn 32 tomorrow, I'm unemployed, and my st4t broke up with my last month, because and I kid you not
>I'm afraid of next steps :(
I'm still upset about it. Like I didn't choose to get laid off you fucking asshole. I explained to him I would help around the house while I look for a job, and he said it wasn't alleviating his anxiety. Genuinely such a pussy.

>>43614503
St4t seems like a meme to me tbqh. Do you pass? There are tons of 30+ year old dudes who want a trans gf

>>43614524
I do pass. He does as well, he's also been on T longer than I've been on E (11 years for T for him, 8 years of E for me, but he's also a little older). I'm mostly interested in ST4T though because there is that shared experience of dysphoria, and helping to overcome it.

>>43596169
I should have trooned out sooner. 30s have been relatively chill bc I got lucky in the height department. Basically a govt funded trad wife bc I'm a neet and my bf has a good job, so I just clean out apartment. I got neetbux bc I'm such a turbo autist that it's just easier to gibs me dat than have me fuck everything up at every job forever

How is your dating life in your 30'? Any chance of marriage?

>>43614911
Yes! 30 year old girls are the only ones deserving of marriage!!
t.25 year old

>>43596524
I know how you feel so fucking badly I repped until 25 and I'm 32 now I don't look awful but the fact I don't look awful starting at 25 makes me realize had I started at 18 or found 420chan and self medded when I was a teen in general I would've passed well

>>43614911
I got one partner for 2 years at age 30 and I currently found another partner for like a few months so far at age 33 I fucking pray someone loves me for the rest of my life and things work out it would make me so unbelievably happy and I still think it could happen even though my heart has been broken a few times the worst was a 5 year relationship in my 20s

There there

Anons? I will turn 30. I'm a NEET and I'm getting neetbux from the gov. I wasted my 20s... I miss the good old days, where I could hookup with other boys, without fucking dating apps. We had so much fun. I was never good with girls, at least I tried it once, but I actually hate pussy.

Everything went to shit. I miss sex so bad

>>43614911
Depressing, as it is for all people.
>Babytrans are infuriating since they fetishise older trans women looking after them, keep having babytrans meltdowns, and are probably going to join a polycule and leave for your local queer state anyway because all modern babytrans are either mental breakdown trans or hypersexual ruination trans
>Straight cis people are often single parents. You are also now in a demographic where every cishet person is either an outright bigot, trans accepting, or supposedly trans accepting but never ask how they treated LGBT people in highschool
>Older women online propaganda means people 18-26 look up to you for maturity and stability since they have none in their life, you are a sexual trophy to them as long as you pamper them and cook for them
>By now you are likely stealth (if not, you should be), the moment you reveal you're trans to date anyone, people will know. You'll just hear sly boymoder jokes or 4tran memes, and gradually your social group starts transitioning and acting mentally ill because everyone thought they never had a chance until they met you
>Every man you date who insists they aren't trans and goes through the song and dance of being offended you'd suggest such a thing when they reveal their feminine aspects to you, is now a legitimate risk of discovering they/their gender identity and dragging you into babytrans hell a few months or years into the relationship
>Cis lesbians are well aware of their privileged position relative to a trans person. Knew a trans woman who was beaten in front of her daughter by a cis lesbian partner. The cis lesbian bit the trans woman's breasts so hard, the implants / her breasts ruptured, and she had to go to hospital. No custodial sentence.
>Everytime you're in any kind of social group for 30+, the admins lack a spine and the age barrier begins lowering to let in the first 28 year old "old soul" and then slides down to like 22-24 and now it's just a babytrans zoomie group
