Hello my dears
What do you experience as the gift and joy of being trans?
Heres mine
I can understand what the heck my daughters are talking about
I can sense other peoples needs
I don't buy into the deception of gender and find life amusing in that aspect
I can wear anything and like it
Shopping on line, heels, lingerie, all the goodies, without guilt
Having Dear friends of trans for life
Special connectivity with anyone of trans orientation
Unlimited sensual and sexual possibility
Hormonal euphoria, new color perceptions
Appreciating flowers, incense, walks, sunrises, fabrics, all the sensory things, and becoming romantic again
The healings of therapy and the recovery of the past memories that are special and nice
unlimited hairstyles, whether wigged or not
Nails, nails,,, nails
Freedom, total and wonderful, if I can only allow myself to feel it
The gift of making a difference
Finding a fountain of untapped and wonderful love.
Forgiveness of self. Forgiveness of others, for they have no clue.
The end of deception, self or otherwise.
And finally, the joy of the unlined underwire bra and having something that goes into it, after all these years.
That's the mtf nonbinary take on it for me. Now my dears, what are the wondrous gifts of trans for you, that which brings you joy?
Love to all here. I pray this thread brings joy and encouragement into your hearts.

For as long as I can remember, I have always felt this way...
I thought of it as different things over the years, the lack of knowledge was great.
I went through a lot of different things, denial, the man-up phase...
Sexuality has been all over the place as well. I can't deny that the variety of sex has been wonderful.
Finding this forum helped a great deal with ideas and terminology, something that grew and then retreated to non-binary.
I think finding the people I have here over the years has been good for me.
The ready to fight or argue sense that I always carried with me has subsided, to a point of almost gone.
Life has been an adventure, one that being non-binary has always played a role, even in denial...
Sometimes it's a really good thing on my journeys, other times not so much.
Gift? I don't know how to answer that, it is and it isn't. It wasn't given to me, but I suppose it still could be...
The joy has been the most in the last three, maybe four years, finding low dose certainly helped with that, but then it also allowed me to be more stable and interact in a better way, which is truly the joy I've had lately in the last few years...
It's a given to me that whatever is happening in my life that being non-binary is a part of it, whether apparent or not.
It's something that just is.
I think that is the greatest joy of all, just knowing it is and coming to terms with it.
Hah! It's a gift of joy that just is, non-binary style.

Ooooo! The joy of being a trans woman!
I love that being trans sets up an automatic dating filter that permits me to date only the most open-minded, adventures lovelies out there. The bigoted, insecure, small-minded meanies out there can't handle the trans woman!
I love that even after 16 years full time, I never, ever take for granted beautiful long hair, the joy of makeup, sexy heels, my closets full of soft pretty clothes, and especially being recognized and acknowledged every day as the goofy, girly, Barbie-Doll-wannabe that I was born to be.
I love pushing girly, anime-inspired hairstyles to the extreme limits everyday!
I adore perfume!
I love that I am simply a woman among women in the all-female workplace in which I work, and I never, ever take it for granted!
I love being able to flirt and charm my way out of a traffic ticket (yup, did just that 3 weeks ago. :) He was awfully cute!)
I adore that I get to wear a stunning 1 karat solitaire diamond wedding ring along with a band of channel-set diamonds beside it... boys don't get that!
I love, love, LOVE my beautiful 36DD breasts!!! And again, I will never take them for granted!
I love being a girl with extensive knowledge of car and truck troubleshooting and repair (I use to own an auto repair shop.)
I love that being trans kind of pushed my life down a path of outrageous adventure and spectacular intrigue... yeah, seriously; you have no idea!
I adore my unique story; it's kind of fun being different (hence the pink and green hair :) )

It brought me great joy to read this thread, my dear...you have touched me emotionally, which probably wouldn't have happened prior to my starting micronized progesterone and estradiol valerate 6 weeks ago.
You also just got a +1 applause.
"Hormonal euphoria and new color perceptions"
YES YES YES YES YES
Wow, my dear, are these female hormones powerful. I never DREAMED of such hormonal euphoria and new color perceptions. I am viewing much of the world differently, just 6 weeks in...
My nipples and areolas look ready for a baby to nurse on...my always protruding nipples are very obvious ALREADY in just 6 weeks, poking though my shirt if my shirt is pulled tight...
No more body odor problem in just 3 weeks...wow, so many problems caused by testosterone eliminated.
Nearly has totally eliminated my facial acne.
My hair, even though I am 56 years old, has a new shininess to it, and liveliness, and is of already higher quality.
I feel SO SO SO SO SO right.
This is AMAZING!!!!!
Huge hugs my dear,
Johanna.
:)

There are just so very many joys and benefits. For the first time the dysphoria has gone, leaving me with sufficient peace and clarity to define and to express just who I am and how I wish to connect with others.
I feel blessed in so many ways. Yes discomfit in others can occur as I travel further on my MTA journey but a lot of this is nuanced presentation and I will continue to improve and to refine my expression and presentation. However the richer and arguably more important emotional benefits (at least to me) are all mine to share. I now have a better relationship with my self and with others. I now have a richer, more empowered life. You can't say not to this can you?
Not looking for a blue box or a pink box, perhaps I will choose a many hued cloud to call my home.
Safe travels
