Title: Took my "first" steps out
Post by: Sophiaprincess2019 on February 10, 2019, 12:38:40 PM
Hello everyone so happy to be here. Couple nights ago I went out in full girl mode.Keep in mind I start HRT in 2 weeks (super excited to say the least) I live in a small(er) town in Wyoming and I have no breasts or girl curves yet. I laughed when a 20 something y.o man did a double take as I walked in to have dinner with friends! After the usual stares from a few people it was business as usual and we drank, laughed and had a very nice evening. Can't wait til I start passing.

@Sophiaprincess2019

Well Done brave girl!! It can been nerve wracking and yet so affirming to be seen in public as we want to be seen.

Stay brave,

Sonja.

Thank you Sonja. Just got back from my Endo Dr. appt. She prescribed me HRT pills. I take my first E and Spiro meds in the morning. Yes, I'm more than excited. Probably won't sleep much tonight!

That is exciting!  A first for each of us!  You on HRT for the first time, and I will loose my balls fr the first time!  >:-)

I hope you can deal with spiro better than I did, the stuff drove me nuts!  But everybody is different!

Sophia,

  Congrats on getting out and especially for starting HRT.  HRT has been a great move along my path (2 years).  My changes are very slow on the outside but inside have been great.  Clear mind, happy and feeling good, less body hair and softer hair and skin.

Good luck on your path.

And keener sense of smell and now it takes a lot longer to climax and instead of the local area only orgasm its like a head to toe buzz of wonderful - ness.  Which takes 3x longer to reach.  And I have the wife who doesn't care for too much foreplay SIGH

I agree, the orgasm has been great but it does take a while to get me there.

I just wanted to say that the positives of clear thinking and a positive mood is pretty huge.  Glad your getting some relief!

Congratulations on beginning your wonderful journey. Wyoming can be a difficult place to find support in, do you have any community locally? We live about an hour south of Cheyanne in northern Colorado, we could venture up towards your direction if that would be of any interest. Let me know via pm.

OMG congratulations on going out enfemme. I remember the first time I left the house dressed all in womens clothes. My nerves were a wreck and at the same time I was alive for the first time in my life.
It's been a little over 2 yrs since I was reborn and took my first step into this wonderful new life and each and every day I am so thankful I wasn't one of the many who lose the battle with suicide while trying to find themselves.

I am so happy for you I could just squeal with excitement. Again congratulations.

I found this on the net and I love it.

"Despite the fact you grew up being told you couldn't and shouldn't be you, by a blatantly transphobic society, you figured out who you were anyway.
Even with all that pressure and those odds against you.
You did that.
You are a freaking badass."

Wow - first time out is a huge milestone for all of us. It was about 30 years ago for me, and I remember it with so much detail today. On my first outing (to the local shopping mall), I had a couple of women give me a knowing look near the beginning of my day, and a bunch of teenage boys giving me a different kind of knowing look.

I'm in awe at how much conviction you must have to start HRT without a lot of time out in public.  I've spend so many days and nights in girl mode with a pretty high pass rate, yet I am no where near to the point where I could contemplate HRT seriously.

Go out and get 'em, girl!

Christine, looks like we are polar opposites! I'm using HRT to help me pass and blend in to society which is my goal yet I have little RLE to assist my confidence. I am enjoying my "girl" life as much as possible.  Unfortunately I cannot dress in girl mode for work since I work in the oil and gas industry and we all wear the same fire resistant clothing at work, so it really doesn't matter much. Maybe I should buy a pink colored hard hat?,,,,,LOL

Thanks for your encouragement.
