My name and gender change hearing is this Friday, so once I've finished sending off the judge's writ to all the proper places I'm done legally [emoji19]
I'll still be going through other life transitions though, even when I'm done with the surgeries I'm considering. So I guess never, and Friday night? [emoji6]

I'm still currently working on legal documents and stuff. Even though I am planning on surgeries as I can afford them I would consider myself personally transitioned when I am able to look in the mirror every day and I don't see him every once in a while. Luckily those days are fewer and far between since going full time.

When no one clocks you no matter how at ease you act and you feel in peace with your mind with all surgeries you think needed to be done.

In Australia we get a telegram from the Queen.


Oh wait, that's when you turn 100...

Hello Everyone, I finished my transition to full womanhood on the day I underwent SRS.  Now I am a transexed woman dealing with everyday woman issues.  Hate my face, hair, can't find shoes, guys don't like me, need bigger breasts, do I look fat.  You know regular woman stuff.

Thank you,
Anne

Hmm... that is a tough question.

Right now I don't know if I will have GRS or not. I consider myself to be maybe-op. I began living full time in September 2013. I received my name and gender change decree and began HRT in February 2014. Began my first job as the real me in November 2014.  I am fully accepted and a woman by everyone except my mother.

So maybe I will be fully transitioned when she accepts me?

Once I was living full time and legally changed my name and gender (so about six months after I came out at work, in my case). I did have GRS, but what marked the end of transition for me was the moment when I never had to worry about presenting male ever again.

I feel good about my progress , but I'm realizing from things everyone is mentioning I have a ways to go . I think when I legally change my documents it will mark a giant leap and the only other thing would be GRS and a beautiful black lace knee high low cut dress with white peal necklace .

In a way I am still evolving. The major dividing line in my life was SRS because when I first woke up, all doubt was gone from my mind and it never returned. I am still evolving because I am improving my social skills that weren't developed before surgery. I am taking an interest in my appearance and working on a cleaner image. While I vowed that SRS would be the last non medical surgery I would have, I discovered voice surgery and have vowed that will be the last non medical surgery I will have. For now transitioning will consist of improving that aspect of my life that was still born due to the intense dysphoria I had in my younger life. Will it ever end, I don't think so but it also will never occupy a major portion of my life again.

For me, I will consider myself fully transitioned when I am out at work and dressing full time.  I don't know when that will be, maybe 6 months, maybe a year, maybe more or less, who knows!  I can't be full time though without a proper wardrobe at the very least.  Longer hair, improved voice maybe, maybe not, and at least a reasonable smattering of physical femininity.

My journey will not be over though, probably never.  I still want to get SRS and someday fit into a sexy bikini, but all women desire to improve themselves in some way, and I don't presume to be any different.  I just want to be seen on the outside for the woman I feel like on the inside.  That will be when I have "transitioned".
