Totally stole that one dude's thread.

They can be comments you received pre-transition or now.
Anything that just made your day.

I got a few comments pre-transition that made me hopeful and happy for when I finally got to start hormones and transition.

"Wow you're way better at makeup than I am."
-Several cis-girls

"You're hotter than 90% of the chicks at my school lol."
-some dude on my Facebook wall a long time ago

I remember these coments because of how happy they made me, not because I'm that into myself, haha.

Let's hear em ladies.

Showing a pic of me in girl clothes (mini skirt and then another in skinny jeans) to a couple of friends. They both went "Lol wow, your legs look completely female and your feet are so small." Made me feel good. ;D

 Mostly just the people who see me/pictures of me, and get all surprised when/if I tell them I'm trans. People don't really point anything out... I just sort of ghost into society as is my lifelong habit.

In high school (before I ever even thought transitioning was possible), I can still remember my friend K.B. saying, "<Birth name>, I'm insanely jealous of how you were born with the perfectly arched eyebrows that so many women crave."

Superficial, I know, but it made me smile at the time.

"I'm not going to take any advice from you about how men think any more!"

I had been trying to explain to my close friend why some men did certain things, based on my own 30+ year experience of living among them and living as one. To have her doubt that I could ever possibly have known the ways of men's brains made me feel extremely feminine!

Someone really nice told me that she likes to read my writing. That made me feel very feminine... I can't explain why.

There are many, but the one that sticks in my mind is the little girl who exclaimed... "Look mommy, that big lady over there is sick" - Yes, it was embarrassing to throw up at the supermarket  :P
The main things to remember in life are Love, Kindness, Understanding and Respect - Always make forward progress

Superficial fanny kissing friends are a dime a dozen, a TRUE FRIEND however is PRICELESS

This was about 5 years ago, when I was pre-hrt.  I was out for a walk at night, wearing Adidas women's running gear.  I was wearing a wig and was wearing breast forms, lol.

Walking by the bright lights of a plaza with a convenience store, there was a guy standing there with some girl; I think both were teenagers.   The guy said, "nice bum, where ya from?"  The girl was appauld by his rude question and said I should slap him.  I walked away without saying a word, as quickly as possible.

The comment sure made me feel like I was passing though.

One other time I was on the bus dressed as a guy but was almost 4 months on hrt.  The hormones were already making it very difficult to pass as a guy at that point.  Anyway, There was this little girl who lokked at me several times and asked her mother why this woman, (me) was dressed like a man.  The mom said, I don't know why she is but keep your voice down.

Three times this week I have been told that my hair looks great! ;D

I have a ton but the most recent one:

I went to a friends house that I hadn't seen until about 2 months post HRT. While I was there (which was the first time I'd met his wife), they (especially her) kept bringing up ->-bleeped-<-. I told them I'm transsexual, and their faces weren't even surprised. I was in boy mode, and she said "You pass REALLY well!", and then I found out that she is a psychologist that works with transsexuals in the VA.

My favorite was when me and a friend were at a gay bar. I went outside to greet one of his friends that was going to meet us here, and when I came back in everybody was staring at me. Come to find out, a lesbian in the bar told my friend "I want some p***y" - talking about me.  Well he outed me to everybody, and the entire place was just shocked. So shocked, that one said "OK so I'm confused, is your other friend (who is cis) the same way?" ... lol! I'm straight and all, but that's a totally "wow you must be lookin good!" moment.
To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are.

Long ago when I first grew my hair long, my grandmother told me "I always thought you'd make a pretty girl". Of course, she had never heard of transgender or anything of the sort.

Uhm, at the restaurant, two weeks ago, my mother, who has some kind of psychological blockage with praising me or expressing emotions (it's genetic really --'), told me "you won't have trouble blending in with the other girls. You have airs" (dunno if that makes sense, but I think she meant my behaviour / mannerisms). It made me feel good, because usually, she's a little discouraging when it comes to such things.

There were also all those times on the phone with the bank, cable/Internet company and tax agency where they told me: "with the voice that I hear, you could not possibly be [male name], and as such, I cannot complete your request. Please tell Mr. [male name] to call us instead." I'm almost thinking of inventing myself a wife or sister with my future name and add "her" on my accounts, haha. But usually, I can get away with immigrants who aren't sure if my name is sometimes used for females.

Oh, and there's that old story from high school. In the bus, my friend told me, one day: "Look how masculine I act, and how feminine you act. It's like we've been swapped in some way" or something similar.

Uhm, on the negative side, there's also this online game player from the first time I voice chatted for that game, when I was 14 or 16. He, convinced that I was a girl, playfully said: "Haha, you almost sound like a guy who's trying to sound like a girl." That hurt me. But well, I guess it was an occasion for me to try harder.

I have been  told that I have really hot legs.

One evening I was getting ready to go out and my friend arrived and I was still putting the finishing touches to my makeup and still to put on my earings for evening.

I was wearing a long dress, which had a slit going up the left leg to my knees.. I was wearing black pantyhose, with black 3 inch heel and I sat at my dressing table (Yes I got one... I bought when I started HRT) very lady like of course... and she noticed my legs and she said wow... you legs look better than mine.
I do look after them... I keep smooth and alway mositurise them after shaving... In the summer monthes I wear an ankle braclet to decorate them a bit.


I also been complimented on my bum in a jeans... A friend told me that I fill out a jeans just like a woman should.
Enjoying ride the hormones are giving me... finally becoming the woman I always knew I was

A couple days after I came out to my mum we went out to a restaurant and our waitress called me "lady" and "miss" the whole evening. Me in boy mode, pre-hormones and whatnot. Not that that was the first time, that had always been pretty common for me. But that time my mum NOTICED. Last time she noticed was when I was 5 on my first day of kindergarten.

Oh and just a couple weekends ago, an adorable 4 year old girl telling me that "yes, it's okay coming walking with us, 'cause it's (pointing to each in turn) 1... 2... 3... girls." Normally I kinda hate that gendered ->-bleeped-<- these days. BUT SHE WAS SO CUTE, OMG!

I've been whistled at a lot lately... which I can't believe (when I was male or female) they think is going to work... but it makes me feel good in a way.  (even though I think "Wow, you must be my dream guy, whistling out of a car at me!" LOL.  Still very sarcastic as a lady)

It seems like when I wear my hair in a high pony tail, it gets a lot of whistling responses.

Being told by my wife I look better then her
Being told I have a pair any guy would be happy to have
Being told I have great looking legs

Any and all are really insignificant when compared to "I cannot imagine you as anyone other than Joanne"

1st - When I saw the title I wondered if you stole this from us or if we stole it from you, haha. 

2nd - It's so funny when I pop over and read these messages and just seeing the complete opposite haha.  All of the things that make you guys smile about being feminine were the things that made me cringe and were huge dysphoria, haha.

Congrats on all of the comments ladies! :)
