A community for transfeminine people and experiences.

This is a supportive community for all transfeminine or questioning people. Anyone is welcome to participate in this community but disrupting the safety of this space for trans feminine people is unacceptable and will result in moderator action.

Debate surrounding transgender rights or acceptance will result in an immediate ban.

Posters may express that they are looking for responses and support from groups with certain experiences (eg. trans people, trans people with supportive parents, trans parents.). Please respect those requests and be mindful that your experience may differ from others here.

To make such a request, at the start of the body of your post, not in the title, the first line should look like the this: [Requesting Engagement from _________]

It took me a few months and I still hesitate when gendering myself sometimes, but it's hesitation now, not correction. It helps that I'm out full-time now, though and have been for over a month. You'll get there, girl. Just be kind to yourself.

Thank you. it's hard to change a lifetime of habit, but I still want to kick myself every time it happens.
