Another baby step

[Saira128]

   So, I came out to two of my friends and they were very accepting of me.
    Today, I decided to take another step towards my transition. I know, it is nothing big, but it is very important for me, and the image I have about my body.
     So, I bought a hair clipper, and trimmed all the hair on my hands, my forearms and my arms. Also, I shaved them afterwards. They feel so smooth. I put on some lotion, for the dry skin. It smells so nice.
      I know, you must be thinking, this is such an insignificant thing, but I know, I was so conscious of my hairy arms that my wardrobe consisted of only full sleeve tees.
 
   I feel so euphoric.

    I guess, sometimes, its the little things that we enjoy the most.

I look forward to so many more experiences like this.


Love,
Saira.

Yays!  I'll never forget the what-the-heck-am-I-doing feeling I had the first time I shaved my legs. Post all your milestones, your words may become someone else's "Aha!" moment. 

Hugs, Devlyn

Hi Saira,

I know what you mean about the little things.  Yesterday I painted my toes (and shaved the hair from my feet) but although I wear socks, and no one can see them, I know my nails are a gorgeous sparkly red (for Christmas) and it makes me feel good.

Have Fun,

Izzy
