Kia Ora,

::) Just so others can see it's not "too late" or for that matter "too early" to transition...

::) Also just to clarify things "Full Time" means 24/7/365 [with or without surgery ] in other words you"NEVER" repeat "NEVER" revert back to your birth sex identity...

Closet door well and truly bolted shut, padlocked and key thrown away... :icon_yikes:

BTW I might have done a similar thread but what the heck..............................

Metta Zenda :)

I don't see an option for the thirties but mine is mid-thirties.
I don't consider my transition complete yet because there's more surgeries I want, but I live full time now and I'm legally male. No turning back now. ;D

You missed an entire decade...you went from twenties to forties!

I completely transitioned this year at the age of 36.

I object to the idea that starting to live full-time is the same as completing your transition. I've been full-time for nine years, and I still haven't completed my transition. It won't be complete until my passport and birth certificate are correct and I've had GRS.

Kia Ora Lisbeth,

::) I see your point, and how it could be misleading, my apologies...

It should have just read/said "Start to live full time".....

Hopefully I've corrected it now...Thanks for pointing this out...

I've not begun HRT, had any surgeries, nor have I had any legal changes. But clothing, binding/packing, hair, and introducing myself by my real (male) name started halfway through 8th grade when I was 14.

I just realized I've only been fulltime for a year now (feels like longer, damn you time XD), since I went into 9th grade "dressed the part" and am going into 10th now. (I plan on asking the teachers to call me Christopher. I didn't get the balls to ask for "Chris" until 2nd semester of 9th.)
