yeah that was me lmao
I know people say you’ll be about as good-looking after transitioning as before, but that’s nonsense. I’ve not seen a single trans person who didn’t look way better afterwards.

Feeling well in your shoes does this to a person. Happy people are shinning.
Not only that, but it’s wild how much actually caring about your appearance makes a difference. Like, I don’t exactly have a beauty routine or do my makeup, but I do actually put some effort in now and people definitely notice.
can confirm. I am basically invisible to people now. I would rate myself a 3/10
i wsh.,
You’re such a good girl Maria! You will do it <3
I mean, back before my hairline decided to start trying to imitate Vegeta…
Oh I absolutely did hate having pictures taken of me, was quite bashful… eventually got away from my very traditional/rightwing family that had imbued me what I can only describe as an ‘anti’ fashion sense, started to develop my own, even did some gender bend cosplays and such, yeah, I was hot, people told me unprompted lol!
But for myself personally, its just fun, occasional tourism, I am quite ok with defaulting to identifying as a dude who is just queer/heteroflexible/considerably more open minded than the average straight cishet dude.
Also, my more or less straight dude presenting, fuck, even ‘are you an undercover cop’ - passing looks have definitely blindsided a few bigots and misogynist sex pests that needed to get thrown out of bars! >=D
Now all that being said… do what makes you happy, be who makes you happy, dress such that you feel incredible, be who you really are.
Hahah, don’t let the man keep you down, hahah!

Alternatively:
Yeah, I tried to see if I could crack my own egg, really did…
gravely cigarette voice:
Turns out I was just hardboiled.
My brain:
Hey yeah I’m here about the pipeline. Is there a queue or something?
Yes, please collect your thigh-highs and preferred Linux distro up at the desk.
Actually they’ve just informed me that they no longer have copies of arch. So anyone wanting to run it will need to download it themselves. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Due to unexpected user activity volume, we can only provide a single printed LFS tome at this time… please share and collaborate for the time being, while we restock the wallpaper repository sources.
Yep, here’s your dash of heavy cream, a spatula… please also take not more than two sample packets of spices from the spice rack, in the event that eggshell integrity is comprimised.
Store these in your pockets, satchel, backpack, handbag, whatever, then please move to the next que’uwu’e of your choosing:
You may choose the ‘hovercat’ line if you wish to procede with the operating system determinism test.
If you wish to proceede with one of the anime character vicarious identification tests, please find the lines identified by either bocchi the rock, neco-arc, madoka kaname… as you can see, there are a large number of potential choices, I think it goes all the way down to sailor moon… that way, you see the signs, that way.
If you wish to proceede with the post apocalyptic residual self image based interactive simulation test, please follow the folksy securiton on my left toward the sound of distant gunfire.
If all of these choices sound overwhelming, thats ok, thats valid, youre valid, please feel free to head to the squishmallow lounge zone, an attendant will be with you shortly to ascertain whether or not you would prefer an affirmatory headpat, as well as a single complimentary comfort snack from our selection.
Before You Leave!
Please remember that you do in fact already have an egg, and other food items on your person; please do your best to not break of otherwise spill or lose any of these items, each different station will have specific, further instructions for what to do with them when you arrive.
divebombs into the squishmallow lounge
I hope you remembered the egg in your pocket…
I AM the egg in my pocket (am a bit borked)
flips through guide book
You… you and your pocket…are inside your pocket?
… You put a pocket dimension… inside of another pocket dimension… which is itself?
flips furiously through guide book
Uh…yes, indeed you are “a bit borked”.
Please roll a saving throw.
… if that is still physically possible / comprehensible.
Oh boy.
I’m literally the former. Am I an egg?
edit: /j, because in retrospect, it was slightly ambiguous
Order some thigh high socks and see how you feel
unironically already have them
Maybe try other traditionally feminine bits and bobs and see how they make you feel? Its your journey, you might come out of it as a super masc traditional man, you might find you’re a femboy, you might find you’re a transfemme, or anything in between or outside that spectrum!
… So? How do you feel?
Fully cis without even a trace of feminity /j
I now go shopping from time to time in skirt, wig, heels and high socks. What now?
How cis does that make you feel?
I second this advice.
Enjoy the introspection. Have been that way all my life. Ask the questions. Explore yourself.
For me it has ended up being needing actual connection after some neglect. never felt called to anything so I’m what I was born as. But wouldn’t have known that if I hadn’t tried some shit. You’ll know.
Healing process of self esteem can then make you like yourself. But asking those questions is very important.
2nd this, x100, x1million.
It is of course fine and good to ask others for advice… but at the end of the day, you are you, and only you can really truly know, explore, and define you.
We can only show you the button. You have to press it for yourself.
whoa, that’s a fun site! Was also pleased to find out the existence of https://turn-me-into-a-boy.com/
No one’s going to break the prime directive. Go do some research.
Haha I was only joking. While I am insecure about my looks, I’m fully certain that my self-esteem issues don’t stem from any dysphoria.

Lmao egg irl always goes half and half for me on shitpost. Either jokes or real shit so sometimes I’ll miss lol
That’s only for you to discover and to decide.
Actually, I’ll have you know that I just pull a stupid face in all the photos of me.
(Not me)
