I need your frank and dead honest appreciation

[Cristal Lecter]

I wouldn't even guess and I'm pretty good at guessing. Based on just the photos, I'd say you are very pretty. If you are beautiful inside, that will only make you that much more attractive. Far too many fail to understand that it is the beauty inside that radiates too.

Thank you Cindi, I think you're right about the inner beauty but at some stage you need to reflect that on the outside.

Pshaw, why stop at 4?  How about

5) girl to write home about

Sorry I don't get what you said

Hmm, confidence. That's a tricky one. You look way better than I do, I mean that honestly.. But it seems I have way more confidence than you do. Go figure?

I'm not going to claim therapy was a complete answer for me, but it was a partial one. It got me to the point where I didn't hate myself any more. That enabled me to get out in the world and exist and love and live - and that's how I came to love myself and gained the confidence I now have. Early on, some days I had to fake it, I'll admit.

You look gorgeous, Cristal.

Not everything can be fixed by therapy Ms Grace, having gender dysphoria since I was 5-6 years old and living this ->-bleeped-<- for more than 30 years has put its marks on me, you can't suffer, being in pain for such a long time without consequences, I've succeeded to survive 2 suicidal attempts, my transition has been blazing fast (only 17 months total)  but still remain the memories of what I've been thru during my childhood and the years that has followed, remember it was the 70's and 80's in France I was living in 50 000 inhabitants city where transsexuality was not even mentioned....I can surely feel the attempt of kindness of your comments, I really do, but therapy is NOT a magic wand (btw I've been in therapy before, during and after the transition for a total of 3 years and half, and I've accepted to be hurt by my past, since I couldn't find a way out)

Fair enough.

If you were to be confident about your appearance, how would that change you? What would you do that is different to now? How would it affect your life?

[PhoenixGurl2016]

Honestly, I am jealous. You are rocking it girl. Way to go

[lostcharlie]

Cristal, reposting after seeing some of the other replies since my first post. in my humble opinion you are truly beautiful and I hope your able to find inner peace with yourself.

[Cristal Lecter]

Fair enough.

Physically, may be a correction of my vagina, and losing 17 kilos
But most importantly, having different parents, or at least that they could accept me, I've given them 40 years of my life and they still misgender me
Finding someone to love me, who accept my past but who can clearly see the woman I'm and little girl I was already.

[buttertly]

Well worth the effort.

Are you kidding? 
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4

Sorry I don't get what you said

Oh, I meant "a girl to take home."  If I was single, I'd probably chat you up.

No reason to be insecure. You're orgeous. Please find what you need to know that for yourself though. Life's too short to let garbage beat us down. best of luck to you.

I've always wore jeans and "young" stuff, sorry I don't think I look anything like 46 years old and as long as I've no winkles on my face I don't have to dress as grand ma....My question was not on my fashion style, but on my looks

EXACTLY, Cindi. Yet again, you've got it right! I applaud almost every single comment I read from you. Thanks for writing such nice comments on here!

Cheers

I'd say between 3 and 4, but that's mainly b/c you're just not my type. :-P In pictures at least, you look great to me. Try to be happy, I'm sorry that you're having self confidence issues.
