What were you doing?  Where were you in your life, your career, your family or even your transition?

Oh Miss, please Miss, I was just about to have my surgery and then my birthday in the same week.  The most  ecstatic  moment in my life that had ever happen to me and the best present I have ever given to myself.  My life.

Fond memories, how can I ever forget that time and to top it of my friend of 22 years is coming to visit me and celebrate those two special occasions.

Kind regards

I was in my second year of undergrad school....still coming to terms with being attracted to girls.  Had not even considered the possibility of transitioning

Dealing with pre K kids, ages 5,3,1,1, as a single parent. I also was working full time in a cannery.

My daughter was about 1.5 months old, my son almost 3. I was 22 and my wife 21. At that time, I was working midnight shift at a bank data center.

Lets see 20 years ago. My ex and I had been married for three years and were living Indianapolis.  I was working in an auto parts store.  I was in a mellow period of dysphoria and doing well.

Unbelievably 20 years ago I was already well on the way to being 10 years postop. I had also been living with Alison for over 3 years.

At around this time today twenty years ago I was sitting in Transmission suite one of BBC Television Center in London lining up tapes and pressing buttons to transmit BBC1 to the grateful nation.

I was 13. Way before starting transition since I didn't really have an exact idea of what was going on in my head. In August of 1991 we moved from MN to OK. Getting off the plane sucked. That level of heat was completely foreign to me at the time. I also had my first girlfriend not much later. She wanted me to grow my fingernails out, so I did. I never cut them short after that, so they're basically almost 20 years old.

Funny ... in 2005 we moved from OK to MN

I feel young...

I was two years old with a brand-new baby sister and I was having eye surgery done.

I was twelve. Those were not very good times, but still not quite as bad as it would soon get. Age 13 was when I learned to be utterly ashamed of my gender, as well as when puberty started to kick in. That was probably the worst year of my life.

I was in 4th grade and ironically that's when I first told someone I wished I was a girl =P

I was busy being 10. It's a trying time really.

I was in high school. This time of year, I had just gotten my cast off from when I broke my wrist & I was trying to heal and recover muscle strength to compete in the season before it ended.

Also, the Giants won the Super Bowl. Woot.

I was in my mommy's tummy growing the wrong stuff. Thankfully, I can't say I remember that tragic accident. 

I just live with the scars from it.

This topic makes me feel really young.

20 years ago I was utterly obsessed with these gamebooks:



And I'd just started high school.

I was non existant

2 years old and lovin it!

Just about to turn 18, still had great visions of the future, was with my first girlfriend and had just learnt that FTM's existed.
