Whoa, that’s awesome! Once you start getting read as “girl” when you’re out and about, it is such a lovely change. You can look forward to a lot more comments like that in the future!

I’m doing well! Had a lovely Halloween with my friends. For work, I dressed up in a witch costume, and then at a party I went as Gretchen from Cuckoo, had a blast wearing both. A few friends told me that using she/her with me feels very natural, and that made me happy :)

Very funny, the people who were saying “good luck losing your customers!” Uh, it’s FOSS lmao. What customers?

My week was great! I took some sunset pictures with a friend and wore a dress I like, and made my first facebook post in over a year with them. My last post was from before my transition, so I was nervous that I’d get a lot of shock and negative reactions. It’s Facebook, after all. However, everybody was SO kind and just had lovely things to say, and some people reached out to me in private to ask how they should refer to me. That made me happy

Heck yeah, congratulations!! The wait is finally over 🙌

Wow, those are absolutely breathtaking. Great photography, too!

Pretty good! Just got back from a trip with a transmasc friend and we got matching tattoos

Edit: srry, I was boarding a train when I read your response and I thought you said your day was good, whoops! Why was your day bad?

How was your day

My transition’s been going decently well. I’m only about a year into HRT, so I have some physical changes yet to go, and possible surgery on the horizon, but socially things have been going really good! I am out at work, at home, and with all my friends, and it’s been nice to be called Astrid by qll the people in my life.

More often than not, I look in the mirror and like the person I see. Sometimes I worry that I am still visually exactly the same when other people look at me, but what can ya do 🤷‍♀️

Aw, thank you! They have really helped me feel like myself ♥️
