i came out in 2024 and I've been on estrogen for almost 2 years. I feel like i pass as female now
>>44043941in 2016i'm getting old
>>44043947same, 2013-14what are we doing even here
>>44043976damn, your transition is as old as the board
>>44043976remember the days when it seemed like things were getting better? good times...
2017 but I kinda stopped HRT for years due to lazy (had orchi however so it wasn't remasculinising)
>>44043991nta but yeah, then somehow the people everyone all agreed were retarded became the mainstream right and all the rich people joined them
>>44043987Yeah, I began on like /cd/Kayla was already a thing back then lol>>44043991They really did get better I thinkuntil they got worse lol
Being trans for over a decade sounds tough. its a good thing im a newfag
>>44044017Idk, I used to be a lot more neurotic about my looks and passing and shitNow I'm older and uglier but I just worry less and feel happier so I suppose it's a win
>>44043947>>44043976>>44043991>>44044000What was it like being trans or discovering you were back then?
>>44044026I envy older trans people they seem wiser and more stable
>>44044026i'm super neurotic about how im presenting. But i do feel more fem and pretty now Sometimes i feel so anxious that its hard to go out in public
i came out to my parents in 2018 but began hormones in 2029 bc i did not know about diy...sadi have been living as a woman for the last four or five years but once i have had srs i want to completely degender myself. being mtf really stresses me out
>>44044055>2029t. from the future
>>44044028It was a lot harder to find information about this shit, like self-medding was more difficult to find. Come to think of it, interesting how it was called self-medding back then but now it's DIYOn the other hand less people were aware of what was going on, looking back at it I confused a lot of people with my boymoding then>>44044040>>44044041Yeah, I think it comes with time and age, I was more neurotic too. Or maybe survivorship bias, who knows.
>>44043941fate of all sharty users
>>440440282016 nona hereThere just wasn't nearly as much discussion about us back then for better and worse. I wish I had known hrt existed so I could be a youngshit but oh well. 2016 was the year the first bathroom bill hit the scene and there was massive backlash against it. Nowadays they could build the camps and nobody will even notice tbhon.>>44044040Thanks I try to help the babytranses where I can to pay it forward. Sometimes they are really fucking annoying though.
>>44044065>>44044075What was the board like 2013/2016 if it existed at all
>>44044125Couldn't tell you, I only browsed intermittently until recently sorry
>>44044125Less tranny, although we definitely started to take over by like 2016, thats I think when /tttt/ was coined to begin with. I feel like attention whoring and tripfagging was more common before than it is now. Less tourists posting, I think people were more concerned with the trutrans shit and how valid they are. FtMs were basically nonexistent, along with any of the memes concerning them
>>44044058>took 11 years to find out about diythat's rough nona
>>44043941Started estrogen just over two years ago and I still have to slather orange color corrector and concealer on my face every day bc I'm a poorfag
>>440439412019Started AA's and E at different datesI pass, I'm just unhappy with my body and looks for being ugly and no ffs
>>44043941>When did you transition2007
>>44043976>>44044005same, been on the board almost since its conception and been trooning for even longer though i didn't use /cd/ beforehand
>>440439412011 I just turned 17 when I started E, I miss /cd/ a lot. Been a wild ride though.
>>44043941started e last year. fml
>>44043941Started Jan 2025 at 32. Was just on 2 to 4mg sublingual monotherapy for most of that time (job reasons). Started patches and aa a month ago. Still boymoding, but feeling hopeful.
social transition 2004medical 2009-2011
I started hormones January 15th 2015 and never missed a single doseI've been living fulltime as a female since July 22nd 2018Trooning best thing ive ever fucking done ever. I'm literally just a normal woman now.
>>44045134Lol wow do you remember me? I miss /cd/ tooI can't believe I've made it just thinking about how afraid of transition I was and looking now im literally a completely different person. It's like I even have a bf and he's just a normal straight guy. I have a date with him tomorrow I'm so excited I think I love him
>>440439412022, started hrt 2023.it could've been so much earlier in 2019-2020 but that "trap mode" image made me think i could be cute without hrt and with just exercise.i look like a twink, i could be more fem if it wasn't for me being a unemployed neet.
>>44043941started hrt in 2023I'm an oldshit but I had fairly lucky genetics; I don't pass but I do give femininity
started in 2024 at 18, should've been two years earlier but oh well
>>44047631Nta but I miss /cd/ too
>>44047599How did kayla get to this point before me I've been on hrt longer
>>44047631I remember your chasing days and how you forced anon on the board lol. I low key kind of hated you for some of the shit you said to me early on, but it’s in the past now.
>>44043941Probably don't, most trannies enter a horrible state where they convince themselves they do at around that time, until they realize they don't.Few of us do without surgery.>>44047599march 19 2012, i'm now 28, i'll never pass.
>>44044165/tttt/ was later iirc, we were still legbutts in 2016.
>>44048705What is this?>legbutts
>>44048736What /lgbt/ used to be called, in the early years.
>>44048657Hey I was never a chsser. I've only ever had sex with men with me in the role of a girl
>>44048787Probably we’re not but you gave the vibes at the time, I don’t hate you now btw, hurt people hurt people and all.
>>44048803>you gave the vibes at the timeHow, anyone who's not an idiot saw i was a tranny deeply in the closet. What did I ever do to come of as a chaser wtf
>>44048874Tbf that’s a lot of chasers there was always a deeply closeted chaser > happy tranny pathway and some repressed it for so long that it was over while you actually started transitioning, I still remember the amount of unfair shit you got from other trips early on.
>>44043941I started secretly taking bicalutamide and sublingual E that I got from inhouse pharmacy in 2014, I remember being insanely terrified that my college mailroom would find out and get me in troubleAfter I graduated I moved to a progressive city, got injections from planned parenthood, told my family I was trans and publicly transitioned.
