CW internalized transphobia, gender dysphoria

To be clear, I understand there’s no cutoff on the age of transition. But I swear to god I keep coming across this talking point made in the worst way possible. They’re trying to reassure young people who are insecure about having gone through their first puberty already but they’ll say some shit like, “I didn’t start transitioning until I was 24 and it still turned out well for me.” And you look at their before pictures and they were conventionally attractive and had other advantages like being transfemme with minimal natural body hair growth. Like goddamn that is not reassuring.

    I’m too far for irl but even virtual can confirm these are awesome, and you can learn so much about resources available, methods of taking hrt, etc.

    I wasn’t able to start HRT until I was basically 30, but I knew since childhood, there was just no way it was happening any earlier and even now its a challenge.
