Ok, so you know, I am watching That Awkward  Moment. If my transcription, ends up being too sappy, you know why..

Ive said so often,  that we have a choice. I have said that we are born this way. Those two statements are incongruent. Truth is....

We arer born this way, and it is scary. We truly, can't help that we want to be them. It's not new, we have been around since the beginnning of time.  They all made rules for us, they didn't accept us. Look, dearhearts, we are not new.For the first time, we have a chance to be...

Us.

Do you know what that means?? At three months into hrt,  I have boobs. I am scared, I am so old. What if I can't get there? It doesn't
matter at all.  I know who I am. When I hear friends say, why? Why would they do that knowing that they would never pass. Why?

Why? Why?!?!?

Truth is...

We know. You know, don't you? You know.

It has become no longer, are you female. We have only become afraid that the world will not see us for what we are. Sisters, we are.

We are normal, if not the norm. We have been around since time first started ticking.

I know that now...   We are EXACTLY what we are supposed to be. And we are in a time where we can be.

At my age, in can only hope. Sure, with my boob growth I can hope, There are those of us who have given up hope.

I KNOW who I am.Yet...

I am afraid.

To those younger, it means that you can just be you. To those of us who are much older, it means that we have to fight. Forever is just a moment, this moment..

This moment forward,  I am female.

I am scared. At three months I have boobs. I am scared,  I wasn't expecting that to happen this fast. It's ok. I am me, for the first time, I a me.

I KNOW who we are.

Night all. Mikaela

I am not sure how old you are, but I started at 47 and am 49 now. I suppose you could call my transition successful even though I am not a stunning drop dead gorgeous girl. I do not feel a sense of fear, but sheer happiness. I feel hope for the first time in my life and get up each day ready to explore the world. I hope you reach that point yourself some day and have the freedom I have found in my life.

wise words
very poetic
I dig it 

A nice chord struck, the music it made soothes, 'every' string completely in tune.... maybe not, can those strings be brought into balance with the others, certainly they can.

Thanks.   Dani

I am 42 at 5 months, at about 3 months I too had significant breast growth. I was like oh crap, I am a man with boobs. But I am still loosing upper body mass, so it gets better, the hormones just take time.

Look for compression tank tops on amazon, I bought this and it works pretty well and just looks like a tank under clothes:

Well I agree we are who we are.  I tried three times not to transition.. and now that I have well I am happy but its overwhelming at the same time.. Its much simpler to be a dude..
Takes me over an hour to get ready now...
I am 55 almost 56 and a friend asked me.. isnt it a little too late in the game to change now..and I was like dude I have no choice I am done..

I very rarely listen to others unless it's the police or someone who knows what they're talking about
