In my imagination I see a fair world,
Everyone lives in peace and in honesty there.
I dream of souls that are always free,
Like the clouds that fly,
Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.

Hello! Nice to meet you my name is Alex, im 32 years old and an artist and live in Cambridge England. Because of this amazing thread, and Emma B's inspiring video, and many other brilliant videos on youtube, I finally decided to take the plunge!
So not much of a before and after (yet!) more of a before before and a before! See what you think!
As you can see I have a face like optimus prime in drag, or if you somehow combined Mary Poppins and Dick Van Dyck into a single horrifying person.. and I dont care :)
I feel very excited and happy and proud for.. the first time ever! I dont really care too much about coming out, my family seem pretty much fine with whatever I do so long as Im happy and not making anyone else unhappy, and the friends Ive told have been super nice so.. who cares what anyone else thinks? I actually think I have it easy because all you brave girls did it already and paved the way.
Im going to see my doctor next week and apply to begin proceedings. I just got a great job so Im going to save up for some FFS and so on and start my life!
Im sure this will be a long tough road but compared to.. before, which was horrible, i think itll be a breeze,


If anyone is thinking about going for it, but is nervous, or worried theyre too tall (im 6.2) to manly (check out my chin!) or just feeling trapped or lonely (i know that one!) or anything like that well, me too, but email me and maybe I can help!
x alex!

Ps sorry for my rubbish laptop camera/phone pics, Ive asked my friend to help make me pretty and take some better ones when she comes back from holiday
Here goes!
Before before (very sad)



before (nervous but happy)








oh dear


So thats before. Im looking forward to after, but in the mean time, woohoo! For the first time I can look in the mirror and not feel silly an horrible. Ironic huh!
Oh, here is some of my art if you would like to see (not just a bony face!) https://aj-brady.squarespace.com/home/
And again, if you need someone to talk to, well, as you can see I dont know much but maybe I can help, so hit me up.
x Alex

Alex, you appear so much happier now that you've decided to do something about how you feel.  Your most recent photos look somewhat feminine already; you have great hair, big eyes and high brows - three things I'd literally kill for!

Let us know how the appointment with the doctor goes.  I'm sure it'll be a very positive experience, but please follow up and post details.

Glad to have you here.

(Wonderful artwork, by the way. :))

Welcome, Alex!! Good to have you here.

Your art is stunning. Some of it reminds me a bit of Chris Foss who happens to be one of my all time favourite artists.
Stooping down, dipping my wings, I came into the darkly-splendid abodes. There, in that formless abyss was I made a partaker of the Mysteries Averse. LIBER CORDIS CINCTI SERPENTE-11;4

I. Love. Emma B!  She's so cheerful and happy...makes me feel hopeful.

And welcome, Alex.  I look forward to getting to know you better.

I guess we both need to eat more or something.
"What do you think science is? There's nothing magical about science. It is simply a systematic way for carefully and thoroughly observing nature and using consistent logic to evaluate results. Which part of that exactly do you disagree with? Do you disagree with being thorough? Using careful observation? Being systematic? Or using consistent logic?" --Dr. Steven Novella
