That last ceicocat kinda fucked me up tbh.

Yeah, that was an emotionally difficult one to watch, though it was really, really good at the same time.

Not sure if you’d also be into these, but here are some that I like:

Trans Ancienty History

YukkoEX

Ashley Adamson

ICKY

For me, a lot of my dysphoria comes more from my age than my gender. I’m closer to 40 than 30 these days (much older than Arai when he transitioned), and sometimes I can’t help but think I’m a man playing dress up or that I missed my window to transition or that I’m going through some midlife crisis to make me look younger.

I’m in the same boat :( I recently decided to start transitioning only at the beginning of this month, and this weekend will be my 3rd weekly e shot. I think all the time about transitioning and how big of a mountain that is to climb this late in the game, or this is at least how I usually see it. Maybe it will be tough, maybe not, but at least it won’t be as terrible as reaching the end of my life having never fully been the person I really wanted to be. Anyways, it makes me feel better to see others in the same situation with the same fears, but going for it anyways.

If you think that’s bad, wait’ll you see Tomato Stalin from the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes cartoon

This is me rn but with gunpla kits

A well done live-action Gundam film would be pretty cool.

If I had a time machine, I would simply go to the future and pick up some cool weapons first, then go back and give Rosa Luxemburg a mech suit and a badass plasma sword.

Thanks for the correction. I did think it was legit but probably going to delete this post now.

Scarlet Johansson?

It does!!! It was huge weight off my shoulders just admitting to myself who I really am and how I want to live my life going forward. The shot was my first concrete step in that direction, and so that by itself makes me extremely happy.

Took my first e shot saturday and I’m feeling great so far, though I do get that it will take awhile before I really start to notice anything. Next step is getting my body hair under control.

I hate it D:

This is amazing!!! Thank you for this, and awesome work!! Looks like you’re already doing exactly what I had in mind, so maybe I’ll start posting things I find to your thread if that’s alright.

estrogen is not a controlled substance in the US.

That’s great to know (especially since I’m on the “DIY” route right now because I didn’t want to deal with doctors and waiting). Haven’t some states recently criminalized helping minors out with gender affirming care? I’m wondering if someone might try to go after people who put the info out there.

unfortunately, testosterone is schedule 3 so there are probably some potential legal issues with sharing transmasc DIY HRT suppliers.

Had no idea about this, so also very good information.

if anything you can include a disclaimer that you should not attempt testosterone therapy without a physician’s approval and say something like “some estrogen vendors sell other hormones wink wink”

I agree wording on this stuff would be important, as I don’t want to directly encourage anything illegal of course.

I’m totally down. As I mentioned, I’m new to transitioning and kind of clueless still about everything I should know, but I’m going to document as much as possible as I go along. Any suggestions on what I should use for my own notes? I’ve used Joplin for note taking stuff but it seems pretty useless as a collaboration tool, and google docs is a big security risk. Also sounds like cryptpad.fr might not be the most usable option out there.

These are some fantastic resources. Thank you! There’s probably a lot more stuff like this out there that I’m just not aware of and need to find. In the meantime either way I plan to collect and compile as much of it as I can.

Where’s some kick-ass woman pride or mature woman pride?

This is where mine comes from: https://youtu.be/kyu8CCw5t-k

Sometimes I too want to be a cute anime girl though and I think that’s also valid.
