Before & After

[NatalieRene]

After talking mostly with my female voice the last few days, I did my Voice App test again

General Average was     210 Hz
Minimum was               125 Hz
Maximum was              296 Hz
Minimum Average was  169 Hz
Maximum Average was 248 Hz
And the judgement was: your range sounds mostly      female

125 is a little low. Practice not dipping down quite so much and make sure you also maintain your resonance.

They are exclamations to the word wow. So wowzer is a big wow so like jaw on floor wow. Like for instance me walking into the UPS store a town over so no one recognizes me and I have the notary clerk make copies of all my documentation because I'm a incredibly slacker apparently and with the wave of anti trans people right now I figure I should have my birth certificate from California fixed while I still can. So now tomorrow all I have to do is get a cashiers check from the bank for $23 and send it in to get my name and marker changed in a new birth certificate and seal the old one. As you can imagine not looking or sounding trans but yet here I am going through the hoops. Hopefully it's the last time I have to put myself in the system. Once I have that done I can get my license in Texas without having to worry about them calling me sir and putting a M on it.

I wish you lot's of luck mastering this bureaucratic hurdle without any problems!
I plan to takle it in the near future, and once I have Florida done, I have to fight the US government to change my naturalization document, and after that i have to takle germany with the same stuff! to get my German passport changed!

That dipping is still my problem, If I don't watch it, I am still falling into that frequency hole!

Thanks and good luck to you too.

Hopefully this shouldn't be too bad. I have a letter all written out that cites the codes in my request that my lawyer helped me prepare so I should just have to wait the 28 days.

You definitely have a female voice.  However, here I sit and have no idea what wowzer or wow-whee means.  This is the first time in my life that I came across those words, and I speak English way longer than you do!  Must be words that are not used in the upper Mid West or in Florida.

Dear Dietlind:
By context only you certainly can figure out that my much used and home-grown words of Wow-zers and Wow-Whee are exclamations of rejoicing and jubilation over hearing extremely good news from friends and acquaintances.  I usually use those words when being supportive and encouraging to others in their good reports that I read and then reply to.   I picked those words up as a young child and have used them ever since....   almost every one here on the forums is very aware that I use those words frequently in my posts and replies.   
I have no doubt that your command of the English language is much better than my unskillful knowledge of Deutsch....   but for sure, in any language there is slang and casual informal words that can be a mystery to many, even native speakers.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Meinung.
Umarmungen und gute Wünsche,

Danielle, gerne geschehen!
I raised child here in the US, my ex wife of close to 40 years is a linguist, and she started her working life out as high school teacher, one should have thought I would have run across those words, but I did not.

I know the expression wow, but without the extra emphasizing syllables.  I think it must have not been used like this where we lived.  My young friend, who did my contouring, is 35 years old, and she and her husband are not using wow in that way either.
That is the reason why I asked what it means!

Ich umarme dich auch, und wünsche dir auch alles Gute!

So how do you like the two countries?

So how do you like the two countries?

I live about 1/2 of my life in each of the two. Each has it's advantage and disadvantages.  As a trans person it would b way better in Germany,  because they officially recognize a third gender, an everything we need in medical services (surgeries included) is paid by the health insurance system.
As a medical research professional I had way better possibilities in the US (and that is why I came to the US (the government invited me to work on some programs).  I am way to long gone from Germany to still feel at home there, and I have nobody left there (my sister die 5 years ago).  My son and spouse live in the US, my es lives here and all my sisters in law and nephews and nieces.
If we would have know how he system here developes, we all would have moved to Germany.  But hopefully, the nightmare will be over soon!

I just got finished up with all the paperwork and red tape. It's in the post office collection box now waiting to go out tomorrow. Hopefully within the next 4 weeks I'll have my new birth certificate with my name and my female marker on it. Then I can get myself a new passport through the normal process. I also have to get off my butt and get my high school and college transcripts updated to my name and pay for a new copy of my college diploma.

and the after

I really like this photo ( even though the lighting is a bit dark) work shirts look really smart and IMO cute and femme.

Looking great Natalie!

Take care,

Sonja.

Thanks. I went ahead and edited the exposure with my phone.

You look great and your voice is fantastic.

Thank you sister.

I see in your signature that you just started hrt. I don't know your body type or age but for best results don't smoke. You are in for one wild roller coaster of a ride. Hang on and don't let it buck you off.
