This is aim at the MTF (who were never males to begin with), but what is your meaning in life? Not exactly the purpose of life, because that could be different an every era. The meaning is more like, a broad definition of your life.

I'm okay with no meaning too. Because I think as humans we give meaning to things that don't matter.

My meaning in life, what makes me most happiest, is making others happy. That's it. I love helping people, who really need my help (not just anybody).
Good question. I have spent so much time protecting myself that I have never considered it until recently.
Will try to let you know if I figure it out.
Up to this point, my life hasn't had any meaning or purpose. I just was. One major part of my journey is to find that meaning!
I've always considered my meaning in life is to confuse others and make them think.
To raise my children to be kind and successful. It is not exciting I bet for many people but it is my meaning.

More than me, at least.
Time is infinity.
Looking back at the way my life has gone, and how it all affected me my purpose is to hate. I'm pissed off 99% of the time, and keep people as far away as possible because I want nothing to do with them. There are a couple people I love, but out of the 8 billion people on this earth they are it. As for the rest of them, I would laugh if I saw them get hit by a train.
But hey, at least my tolerance has increased.
To be awesome to myself and everyone else ;D
Peace and love and all that good stuff,

I'm not entirely sure anymore. Before HRT it seemed that I enjoyed making people around me a miserable as I was. I enjoy "jokes" but my sense of humor doesn't usually go over very well(crushed up cherry Alka-Seltzer in a dish of holy water at a church while dressed in all black and with goth face paint) . I tend to go towards service oriented jobs, so I help the older generation a lot, it actually bothers me that so many in a nursing home are just dumped there by their families and never visited. Yes two extremes.
Personally that is difficult but in part for me it means to live a life where the impact on have on my world is a positive one.
...and the answer to the other great question "What is the meaning of Life, the universe and Everything"
Simple.....42
For me the meaning of my life is at the moment...simply to be myself and try to enjoy life while I am still here... (what is not really easy)
I don't care too much about getting married, making friends... I mean... I would like to have that utopic happy life we see in movies, having a companion, a daughter, having a dog and tons of friends to hang out... but this kind of life isn't for me.
I have learned that people can be the worst thing out there.
So I don't want to have anything to do with people... I don't like humans... most of people I see are awfully sexists, machists, transphobics, homophobics and such.
So... I have chosen a lonely life... not exactly by choice... but I don't mix very well with people.
However I love the nature...
I can enjoy the little things of life. Small things makes me happy and help me to connect with the nature of this world and of the unniverse... I like looking at a beautiful flower and I often find myself amazed with a nice sunset. I like to watch the clouds moving as time passes... I like to watch the leaves moving with the wind... I get happy playing with a cute kitty or taking care of a hungry dog.
Small things...
So if my life should have a meaning... I would like to help the animals... I would like to care for the abandoned cats and dogs we find everyday.... they need just a bit of love, food and a place to stay safe and in return they will be your best friends and love you forever (as opposed to humans).
My meaning in life is to push for a more liberal, inclusive, sustainable society. To bring justice to those that were wronged. To remove conservative ideology from existence. To fix the unequal distribution of wealth. I was an alpha male before transition and an asskicker. I will continue to transition, get into the best shape of my life, finish school and be a asskicking transwoman that's going to make things right. If any conservative, alt right, red neck, trump voting, radical Christian ideology, gun waving loser gets in my way, you can count on me to give them an asskicking! That Is all.
In my professional life I was a Change Agent dragging management to recognize they could grow their profits by redesigning the shop floor and employing computer systems. In private life, my family is everything. In spiritual life, I believe in a higher power, but I do not believe in the church. Too many divergent interpretations that have nothing to do with "The Word"
My meaning in life involves happiness. Personally, I enjoy making friends, and having somebody to love. I enjoy volunteering at the local food pantry. I like making people smile, and laugh. I enjoy a good friendly conversation. Without that, my life would have no meaning for me.
