Something that I think beautifully captures my pre- and post-transition mindsets is that my favorite season has changed.
I didn't have one before, but I logically deduced that it was Autumn because it was cold enough to wear the baggy and concealing clothes that I wore all the time without suffering from the heat.
Now, though, I'm seeing how beautiful everything is for the first time in my life, and I think Spring is my favorite season. The rain, the colors, the summer wildlife starting to wake up again...
I just find it poetic that my "favorite season" was apathetically chosen as the one where everything seems to die, back when I wanted to die myself. But now that I want to live, my favorite season is the one where everything else feels like it's coming back to life as well.
I don't know how I want to finish this post, but I know I spend a lot of time all-but-bating TERFs and engaging in The Discourse. And that might make it seem like anger and controversy is the only thing pervading my thoughts, so I just wanted to say something a bit more positive.
No amount of transphobia can take away what we have when we hold out just long enough to see the world for what it's becoming instead of what it has been. I know it's generic and corny to say at this point, but I really think it does get better. We're going to be okay. Don't forget that, it's easy to.

i'm a pre-transition trans man, closeted in public but out to a few close friends. i don't have the guts to pack in public but last week i realized nothing is stopping me from packing in the privacy of my own home. now i do this regularly and im considering trying to sew myself a packer since i can't afford to buy one (and i don't know what i'd do if someone found my dick by accident or if i had to get it through airport security). just the thought is exhilarating and boosts my mood 10-fold.

Pretransition Pride Flag
Tumblr media
Pre-transition: describing the time when someone didn't transition yet; someone who didn't transition but is going to or willing to transition someday. It could be either for social transition and/or medical transition. Usually someone who socially transitioned already, they may also use "pre-t", "pre-op", "pre-HRT"... Someone who didn't transition in any way may also use "pre-everything".
Based on the transitioning flag. It shouldn't be confused with nontransitioning (non-HRT, non-op...), which is the state of someone who isn't willing to transition.

2004 Yarn Drama
Wolsey’s in the paper for knitting This is me pre transition. I’m not sure I have thick enough hair to take dreads these days. Such is the price of testosterone, but it’s a price I happily paid. Funny enough I went to a little yarn shop in my small town and the older boomer-aged ladies recognized me from the paper, probably the dreads, and were MAD! I was told I didn’t deserve to be in the…

I tried on a dress for the first time. The waist is too high, it doesn't go as far to my ankles as I'd like, and quite frankly, I look like a man in drag. But I feel like a queen.

I feel bad for being non-everything trans person. Why would I complain about my dysphoria if I'm not doing anything about it? It's my fault. Why do I act surprised when everybody notes that they look for a partner who's at least on hrt? After all, what does my gender mean when I don't express it through my appearance. Misgendered? Well, doesn't it happen for the same reasons I myself feel my mind and body not aligning?
I don't want to explain to everyone I meet why I don't transition medically. It's like making up excuses. At this point I don't even know if I'm queer enough to hang out in lgbtq+ spaces.

Something I love that some trans people do is talk about their pre-transition selves with no context as to their transition.
Like, if a trans woman talks about her past by saying, "when I was in Boy Scouts..." and never elaborates that she's trans and that there was a time where she was a boy scout. I just think that kind of normalization is great (and honestly, it can be funny when others are like "a GIRL in the BOY scouts?????? My life is changed")

pre-anything | 1.5 years on t | 4 weeks post-op
looking at these pictures side by side like this really puts so much in perspective. all the hard parts of second puberty and surgery recovery, all the fighting with my parents over the steps it took to get here, all the hours i worked at an awful job to save up for it, all the years i spent waiting for any of this to be possible…it’s all so worth it to be where i am now.
two years ago, if you had shown me the picture on the right, i probably would’ve said that even t and top surgery could never make me look like that, no matter how much i wanted to. that was the kind of person whose pictures i would look up to as some sort of wishful thinking, never as a realistic goal, and now here i am. now that’s my body and i feel like i can relax in it and just be for the first time.
being trans is so fucking cool man.
