Quote from: Stottie Girl on October 14, 2026, 05:15:54 PMYou have looked good in all of them Emma but I do like this one.

I agree.
And then one day you stop to find,
10 years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run,
you missed the starting gun

Thanks for the compliment, Sarah, Petunia, and Davina. 

I have a strange need to post my photos here.  I think I need regular positive affirmations from my friends here because I am trapped with constant self-criticisms in my head.

Gender dysphoria has made me very needy...so alien to the male socialization we all grew up with, "Just suck it up."

This is so hard to handle, at times. That voice that doesn't have many nice things to say but that seems to have endless ways of expressing everything from a bit of doubt to a formal rage of self-criticism.

That said, I think you look really good in your pictures.
💕
Why not think about times to come? And not about the things that you've done.
If your life was bad to you, just think what tomorrow will do
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow.
Don't stop, it'll soon be here.
It'll be better than before.
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone

Same. I find I need that validation though I did not know I did until I posted my first pic here. I need to know that I'm not fooling myself, that I do look female and I'm not suffering some sort of mental delusion! The comments on here really do help and I am so grateful for them as I'm sure you are.

I do not have the capacity to "just suck it up" anymore. I can get very emotional now and sometimes I just can't control it. I do really like this aspect of transition in particular though.

Sarah, you are 100% femme in your avatar, so if that is a real picture then you are...a woman!

Thanks Anna, It does not stop me from feeling dysphoric though.

That is 100% me, albeit with my full make up on.

This is me with virtually no make up on:-


You can see what a difference make up can make!!

No I'm trying to convince Anna that I'm not using AI or anything, that the avatar pic is really me.

But thanks like!😁

Truth be told, I went to high school with a girl who looked very similar to you in that pic. You have natural beauty, and your personality just brings it home. Never stop being you.

Sarah, makeup or not, you still look unmistably female.

I really don't know how you boymode when you have to.
I know presentation is more than just how you look, and you have a good wig, but still....
And then one day you stop to find,
10 years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run,
you missed the starting gun

davina61

Defiantly female my dear, you dont need makeup.

Bloody hell I wasn't expecting all these comments! Thank you ladies I'm incredibly flattered. Just remember this is Emma's blog you know!!

Sorry Emma! You have a way better smile than me by the way, I love it in all your pictures. I think it's a tie between you and Danielle for best smile on Susans!

Oh stop it now! I'm getting embarrassed 😊 Thank you Emma, I'm sorry for the blog invasion!

I wish I could see what you lot see but that's the horrible thing about dysphoria, you zero in on the silliest details and then that is all you can see. That's why posting pictures and the wonderful comments we receive keeps us grounded and gives us those little boosts in confidence.

I love this place and I love all of you!
