I want to get an idea of where we all are in transition.  Thank you kindly. :)

Hormones, full time, about 2 years now for both... Not seen a therapist yet... which is rather frustrating, especially as i cant even begin to wait for grs till i do...

Oh hormones, been full-time for seven years, my driver's license says "female."

On HRT for going on 8 months. Living full-time for the most part except for those rare moments that I have to "boy it up a bit" Even then I never wear mens cloths.
Finally arrived... mostly.

I went for other, because I'm undecided as to whether I will ever transition. I don't have the balls.  :P

I chose other because at times people think i am a FTM because i am so comfortable in my body and self that i don't dress up or wear makeup and I wear whatever i want that people seem to think i am a tomboy which is fine by me because well i don't want to excite men and so i dress down and don't play all girly  been full time now 10 yrs and 10 months

I marked other because I am not on prescription HRT I use other means for estrogen (no not DIY prescriptions either) but I do live fulltime.
I would rather die as who I am than live as who I am not

I put other

I haven't started hormones but I do pass. Everyone I meet assumes I'm a guy, unless somebody (usually my sister) outs me. So I'd say I'm full time in casual social circles, I can't be for official stuff, obviously :P
