      Yay. Me too. Started transitioning just after my 42nd b-day this year. Seems like there's a lot of us that are finally doing what we needed to do now that the toxicity of 80's/90's culture is behind us. I also can't believe I made it this long without having done so. Repression and masking are veeeery strong (and unhealthy) tools that I used.

    As an adolescent, I had this sense that things were a bit 'off' with me.. but I didn't have the knowledge or words to describe what I was experiencing. My egg finally cracked at 29, and at 30 I just started HRT to begin my medical transition. Things are slow going.. but I'm happy to finally feel a lift in my chronic anxiety and depression that's been ever-present since puberty blindsided me. I appreciate your honesty and raw emotion displayed here. ♥

    Princess, I think you are wonderful. Many of us have shared very similar stories as yours, to varying degrees. Your video is so authentic and vulnerable, it is a service to others like us, and the world at large, to show that we are real people, our existence is not dependent on the acceptance or understanding of others. My mom completely rejected me being a girl when I transitioned socially. I envy you being able to pass, I probably never will, but I'll also never go back to living as a boy, and what a relief, to just try my best to be myself. Blessings to you, and thanks for your channel. Cheers!

    Just a reminder for new people to the transitioning stage. Make sure you have a safe support area to start. Don't come out to those who might be a possible risk of you being in a toxic environment, especially if you are not old enough to support yourself! Things take time and I recommend people to get their education while being under the roof of their parent/guardians. This world is cruel, so waiting will help you in the lond run.

    OMG 🥹 Thank you for sharing this authentic experience. It's so dehumanizing when people like Blaire White and Marcus Dibs make themselves and their extremely privileged experiences out to be not only the norm (which they're not) but additionally the only true transgender experience. I think it's far more common for us to be discouraged and do all we can to fit in and "be normal" until we reach a breaking point.
    I very much bought into toxic, masculine bitterness until my co-parent had the good sense to divorce me at 32 and release me from the self-destructive pattern I had embraced. My life may be a lot stranger and less socially accepted now, but at least I'm no longer the villain in my own life story.

    but i feel like if someone is more fem thats just a plus for me personally. like, if we click, i don't have to sleep alone at night and i have someone i can cook dinner for.
    if we don't, why should continue to care?
    oh and blaire white is living cancer. she is the reason i didn't start my transition 5 years earlier.

      probably the best thing for you is to ve out on your own.... but might i suggest finding a friend who you trust (and who trusts you) to help balance the load for the costs of rent, utilities, and such... not only that, having someone else around at your place can be helpful for both of you in having someone to talk with when you need to.
      Either which way... best of luck for you as you navigate these treacherous 'waters' of life and society. Have confidence in yourself and the decisions you make, but never allow yourself to deny or fail to learn from a mistake. Making mistakes as you go through life... they are easily turned into learning experiences that will help you when faced with the same or similar situations later.
      Again... all the best to you, hopefully getting your transition won't be delayed much longer... we all need to live our lives and be our true selves.

    Many people would say you do not become trans. You are born that way. You may repress it, even for many years, but being trans is basically who you are. My own view is we can never really know. When I analyze my own journey I see aspects of my transness, so to speak, that were immutable from the day I was born. However, I also see aspects of my life experience that may have made me trans. Probably, it is a bit of both, at least for me. Now, after accepting I am trans and being in transition a little over year I do not think as much about the root of my transness. I know I am trans and am glad I am doing something about it as hard as that is.

      Exactly, it's something you just know and learn about at some point in your life. You may be born with it, it may just develop somehow due to circumstances but at the end of the day it doesn't matter how you became to be trans. It only matters is that you can be yourself. I hope everyone can learn more about themselves and learn to be comfortable in your own skin. It's the best feeling in the world. When I learned that I was trans, it was like the world opened up for me. I finally found a word to describe who I am. It wasn't an easy journey, but was able to get their in the end and then learn to accept it. I'm so happy that you were able to take action on it and learn to be yourself

      There’s still time to say screw everyone for making it impossible. As a male, I have a feminine mind and have always been too creative to fit in with the guys in high school and was very happy to graduate only to find college to be a similar boat. No one ever wanted me on their team in gym, and it’s very hurtful to get shunned out of literally every social environment and group project as I had no friends. My parents and brother don’t know about me wanting to transition, but would most certainly call me a freak and I don’t have anybody to support me, but I’m going to transition to a woman anyway because I feel like it’ll benefit my own mental health positively and the best thing to do is to shun out all the things that others believe and do what’s right for yourself as it’s your own body in the first place. The last thing you should do is end it all and it’s never impossible, you just need to fight back against everybody else’s standards because they don’t own you as an individual as you have full control over your own life and need to do what’s best for your own self…

      @@orangejacket4551 Thanks for your comment! The problem is that I still have to rely on my parents, and they already dislike me, they'd probably force me to leave, so I guess I'd be homeless if I came out or started transitioning. I live in Hungary which isn't a good place for people like me... Even if people would say that they accept me, I still don't think I'd be able to be around them. I've always kept to myself, so revealing something like this seems impossible, even in an accepting environment. If I could have one wish, all I would want is to be a girl from birth. If I lived my life as a girl, I would be so much happier and better now. I really just don't see the point of living like this, by the time I could properly transition, it will be too late. I just have to hope there is an afterlife or something where I can be myself. Good luck to you, I hope you succeed.

    Pretty powerful stuff here girl... I transitioned 28 years ago in 1996 at the age of 46. Like you I didn't have the words but I knew at like 6 that I was different. I couldnt find any information in libraries and in fact, trying to look a subject up in the card files at the time when you didn't know the name of that subject was a losing proposition. Finally the internet was born and I began to understand there were others like me. I saw a path forward and I jumped off the cliff hoping I could fly. Its been almost 3 decades now and I'm still flying. After transition I went stealth up until a year ago because I felt that at 73, retired with no job to lose, it was time for me to fight against the goons of MAGA politics. I wanted the people I was friends with to know that transfolks are just regular people with a little twist of lime. I've had a good life, one I am proud of and I would bet on you having a great life ahead of you too. Stay strong and remember you are loved, you are valid, and ignore the harpies that nip at us. ❤ (ps If you don't mind, I have a rather large social media presense at a 1/4 million followers. Yeah mostly it's guys who like my boobs {LOL} but there are a bunch of us transfolks in there too so is it okay if I highlight this video? I think you have a voice and a story that could resonate with people...)

    Hey, PolarWaterPrincess! I love this content! One piece of constructive criticism to clean up your editing - the snap zooms distracted me from your story. Instead of snapping in and out, slow zoom as the emotions get stronger and hold that zoomed in frame to give the sense of intimacy and really punch your vulnerability to the audience. Again, this is still a really powerful thing to share! Love it!

    I so remember being so enthralled with the Christine Jorgensen story. I knew that I wanted to be girl and wanted to do what she did. My parents were totally aware I was "different" and whispered about my "illness". My father hated me and I think mom was on his side.

    I know what it feels like to never be affirmed, even when I tried my hardest to be the "son" they wanted. All I have ever known is criticism and living in constant fear. I also had controlling parents (still are), but I'm in college now and now I'm living on campus! I know the road is going to be long and difficult, but at least I can finally be myself and that's something I've never had.

    Thank you for being willing to share your soul with all of us. It is one very beautiful soul. I know that we all feel the affirmation from our parents could be the most important thing to hear. But in my mind I feel like if you lived yourself, you were affirmed. I think you would greatly benefit from this book I read last year. It's called, "the subtle art of not giving a fuck." It's a pretty rough book but it teaches you some pretty good skills on not letting other people's thoughts dictate your own.

    Thank you for this video. I cried. A LOT! Bawled like a baby (or a Little, so no surprise 😜- but i feel that Little state in some of us was DUE to the CORRECT childhood being vehemently denied to us - something missing 🥺) i experienced much of what you speak of here, and i suffered far longer into later in my life than i care to admit here.
    I really wish that such experiences were never part of any child’s life, but unfortunately that is just not how reality treats us even back in my day. I always knew i was not in line with my body. I WISH now that i had (oh so many decades ago) the resources and general acceptance and relative safety that is available these days.
    By the way, i am so jellyz of your beauty too.

    I came out to myself and later my family around 20 y/o as well and also dropped out of high school (later finished my credits and my diploma). I didn't know what being "trans" was until around that time, and growing up in a rural community I wasn't even really sure what being gay meant--other than people would call things "gay" in a derogatory way. I still spent 3 years (shoved) back in the closet after coming out due to living with my unaccepting parent, but finally managed to get out of that situation after a few additional hardships (not trying to overshare)
    Anyways: I'm really happy for you and hope you get so much joy out of this life. (I feel like I phrased that in an odd way)
    Uh, congrats 😅

    I would like to ask a question if you don't mind:
    Your experience seems different from the dysphoric trans people ("transexual"), but it also seems every bit as authentic (not "just a fetish"), can I ask what you feel like the best classification is for people who are closer to your experience than a highly dysphoric trans person (who seem to be gravitating to the classification "transexual"), is it transgender maybe, or something else?

    Just want to start out with an "OMG" you are beautiful! Thanks for sharing your story, I know it isn't easy to talk about, but I really needed to hear from someone who has had similar feelings and thoughts like I had when I was really young. I however suppressed all of my feelings and desires when I was about 6 years old my mom caught me one day dressing in her clothes and trying out some of her lipstick. I blocked out everything for decades, I was feeling a horrible sense of shame and I was forced to try and fit in the box called masculine. i have spent most of my life not know why I have this deep feeling of depression and self loathing and it wasn't until a few years ago that I spoke to several therapists and they started explaining Gender Dysphoria. I am 53 years old now and I'll just say, I don't think there is ever an easy point in your life to reveal your true self with the people you love and then the people you work with. I explained things to my Wife and kids, the kids took it surprisingly well and were very supportive, however my wife completely freaked out and has no idea how to move forward. I am not interested in men at this point, I really just want to stay with my wife, but things are very awkward. She never wants to talk about it and I just keep getting more depressed about it and I have started getting thoughts of suicide which is kind of scary. I think about it and then I think about my kids and my wife, they are really the only thing holding me back. Having revealed myself to my family wasn't easy, but now I feel like if I transition I might embarrass them and then how can I live in the same world once I transition? I will probably get fired from my job, kicked out of my house, disowned by my mother and my wife and Family.... It is very scary to think about what may happen when I start presenting as Feminine and anything else feels like a dream that I need to wake up from. Anyway, Just wanted to say Thank you, it wasn't easy but you made it! You transition appears to be a huge success and I wish I had the courage you did to take that step and go through with the transition.. (Being a bit older, I always buy myself a couple girly things for Christmas ;)

    I figured it out very young. I knew what I wanted to do but did not know it was possible until I was 10. My step dad was always on my case trying to make me manup. He had me go to county asylums Stanley Royd Mental Hospital Wakefield to be cured back in 1977 when i was 13. Obviously they failed to change or deter me. I was then thrown out the family home at age 15 by my step dad, no clothes just my school uniform, no money & nowhere to live but at last I was happy and free to take charge of my own life and destiny. I went on to complete my SRS in the early 1980's & spent the next 31 years with my late partner/husband.

    If we met, i would get you something. A true friend would boost you and never let you stalemate or stew on stagnance. Things take time to switch from one identity to the next for us, but years/decades longer for others to realize what is actually happening. Times are are cruel, but it was much harder in the 70s-80s when it wasn't all mainstream. Keep your head up, and I'll ask santa to bring you a gift.
