Thanks for the detailed reply. Regarding the leg to toe line. I’m planning on displaying dominance with my ass and thighs. I recon an aggressive regiment of squats, deadlift s and cupcakes will do the trick. Also if people are staring at my ass they won’t be staring at my feet.

Thanks that’s really helpful. I favour boot cut jeans usually, so it’s pretty easy to hide most of the time. But I also live in the arctic, so I need something that goes a fair way up the leg in the winter. So I can’t rely on the cut of the trousers.

You’ll still be able to own ammonium nitrate and diesel. Just saying.

I have very malleable vocal chords. I’m currently trying to abuse them into sounding like Eivør. It’ll take time but I will manage it eventually.

I’d start already but if I go through the official channels then a lot of the non hormone related stuff is at least partially covered by the government. Also my SO is somewhat freaking out so waiting until she calms down might not be a terrible idea.

You’re still just a baby girl. I’m a little over twice your age and a literal “dad” (as far as everyone else is concerned) and just stopped lying to myself recently. I’m planning to get on E as soon as the medical system allows for it where i live. Do I regret not coming out and starting sooner? Sure, but I also know that even if I’ll never pass (and let’s face it at 188 cm with size 49 shoes it’s a bit of an ask) I’ll still look and feel a fuck of a lot better than I do now. And from what I’ve seen, E can take years off your appearance. So I’ll be getting both hotter and younger. There’s always a silver lining if you’re prepared to look for it.

It’s great that you were able to find it so easily. I never really gave it much thought until recently. I kinda like Kara and Robyn but I wouldn’t use them together. I’m going to try both out for a bit and see if I can get used to either of them. I also like Sarah, but I know way too many Sarahs to be comfortable using it.

Pronouns are extremely important to some people and not at all to others. I’m not sure I care, but I might after I’ve actually taken steps to physically transition. Maybe I feel like a he now but a she after a couple of months on estrogen? Who knows.

Either way I think its great that you have fond memories of being a boy in your childhood. If you have good memories you should hold on to those no matter how you identified at the time.

But what you’re describing seems very familiar to me.

All my highschool nicknames were the product of bullying :(

Yeah, I’m not asking my partner. She’ll suggest a bunch of lotr names.

I’m half considering stealing Joanne from the f**King terf. It’d be the ultimate act of trolling.

I just spat coffee. But… That would be hilarious…

Not really an option when I’m so close to inheriting a house from a man who undoubtedly beats his meat to a picture of jk Rowling.

My girl!

Also if you have Photoshop skills, you could put your face on an idealised female body and an idealised male body and see which one feels right, if either do. By no means a diagnostic test but might be interesting?

It sounds like you need to talk to a psychologist/therapist who specialises in gender dysphoria. They would potentially be able to help you arrange your thoughts on the matter. No-one is going to be able to give you a definite answer on the internet and nor should they. I can tell you that I am going through the hatching process at the moment and am experiencing something similar. I’m a long way past puberty (old enough to be your parent) and the thing that bothers me is that I didn’t adress this sooner. If I had investigated my gender identity at your age I might have enjoyed my adult life and not spent every day depressed and angry at everything.

It’s possible that you aren’t transgender or that you are. But even if you aren’t it’s still useful to know that. If you know any trans girls IRL you should talk to them about it and see if your experiences align with theirs. Also, I don’t know about your family situation or political environment where you live, but if you could see a therapist, it wouldn’t hurt. Just make sure you address it soon because you don’t want to spend the next few decades of your life miserable. Again I’m not saying you are or aren’t trans. Only you can figure that out.

That really sucks, I’m sorry 😔.

I’m also from a rural place where everyone knows each others business all the time and it’s exhausting dealing with it. I haven’t actually started transitioning in any meaningful way, but I’m 100% not going to present as female there. At least until my very transphobic parents kick the bucket. After that I’m just not going to go back.

Just try to stay positive and keep going. Civilization isn’t that far away. You can do it!

In a survival situation I believe the raw ovaries of animals would be a good source.
