What the fuck? Why complain about you trying to get there as fast as possible? It makes zero sense.

Argh, I dunno, some people just think its funny to be assholes sometimes

I think your feeling is very valid and common amongst trans women... I often feel the same way.

Yup. I totally see other trans women and I'm like "am I faking that? That real thing she's doing, am I faking it?

That is a super common feeling. Also ew at anon.

You haven't had a history of being transphobic. I can tell because I don't allow that shit on my dash, but I'm still following you. :)

Thanks lovelies, I'm glad I wasn't completely mistaken with that; I'd hate to think I was offending people when all I was trying to do was vent a little about how shitty I was feeling from a big wardrobe disappointment and some crappy ongoing identity issues.

Looks fine to me, awesome nails :)

They took ages. It was the first time trying either nail polish; the pink ended up needing four coats, and the white a further two. With undercoat and top coat, that was eight coats totally xD So you can probably guess they're not too stable - they keep imprinting and smudging, even now. Plus, the way I did the tips left lots of annoying marks.. They do look good from a distance, I'll agree :D But if you look at all closely that's another story..

Just be as calm as you can, he'll probably be more nervous than you, ultimately, just be yourself!

Thanks guys, you're all superstars :D He just left, and after I stopped hyperventilating it actually went pretty well :D After I calmed down it actually felt really right, which I guess shows how sick of hiding I am - and at least he got to meet the real me on a relatively high note too

Wanting to see your true self in the mirror isn't vanity. Everyone wants to, but not all can.

Very true. I guess you play the hand your dealt..

It's really disgusting. It's in such bad taste but the worst part is that people think it's okay.

That's because media continues to portray us that way, and in a society where media portrayal is the only portrayal that people will internalise, the general public will continue to see us that way unquestioningly.

I always look in the mirror: "why so serious?"

Look on the bright side; should you need it, you'll have a kickass joker cosplay at the ready! Seriously though, it's just about practice and finding the right tool to suit you, as far as I can tell :D
