This is a new thread for the gray hairs of the trans world. MtFs and FtMs both welcome. Are you over 30? Over 40? Are you in your second, third or more decade since transitioning and settled in? Then this is the thread for you. Haters who think we all hero ourselves at age 30 BTFO.

Some things I've learned in my old age:

Stealth is good, but don't take it too far. You're still trans and it can be good to be out to at least some friends so you can be yourself around them and not have to worry about being outed.

Keeping some trans friends in your life is good. No one else really understands what we go through, and we have to support each other in the face of an often cruel and hostile world.

Don't let yourself gain too much weight! It's sooo hard to lose, and we need to be healthy and look our best to compete in the world.

Share your experiences and nuggets of wisdom here.

21, meaning that I was forced to transition myself back when it was basically culturally impossible. Why?

>Don't let yourself gain too much weight!

Man, I went from 140 to 180 after getting married, trying to lose weight in my midthirties is fucking shitty, OP.

How are my fellow senior 4tranners doing on their life goals and bucket lists?
>>
>>8314604
Because I didn't expect to see any early transitioners on this thread. It would have been pretty unusual 8 years ago, I believe. How did you get started?
>>
>>8314614
Congrats on getting married. I started going up in weight after SRS, but I'm working hard on losing now. I'm down 10 but I have a ways to go yet.

I'm reworking my life goals. I never got established in a career, so at this point I'm just concerned with having enough money to retire. I need to rebuild my social network too. I got caught up in helping out my aging parents so I've had less time and energy for my own personal life than I'd like. I'm optimistic for my future but I can't afford to waste any more time.
>>
>>8314540
Keep in touch with friends even after they/you move, and maintain a list of good job references. Social networks are important. I don't know if you're introverted, but if you are keeping up the networks is harder and more important. It's great when other people treat you as cis, but trans issues always come up in life, and it's nice to have some people to talk to that you don't have to hide anything from and who know what you've been through.

hmmm well then maybe you should have """realized you were trans""" earlier than 14, you stupid piece of shit.

HI GRANDMAS

>>8315746
Fuck off cara you're not an early transitioner, you waited until 21
Nice """dysphoria""" lmao

Wish I lived closer to mine, 17 hours by car.

Now that "the dust is settled", we get on well.

>>8315765
I've gotten along with my mother a lot better than my father. The issue of my being trans is still touchy so we kind of ignore it for the most part.

I transitioned(mtf) at 22 and am now 32 and happily married. I pass as non offensively trans, but still noticeably not cis.

However, I've accomplished absolutely nothing outside of that and am now having a bit of a "wth more do I want outta life" crisis.
>>
>>8315801
Congrats on being married. I still have hopes of finding a husband. I'm getting to an age where even ciswomen are unable to have children, and a lot of them have let themselves go, so the playing field is a bit more level. I'm not getting my hopes up too high but there's no sense in giving up.
>However, I've accomplished absolutely nothing outside of that and am now having a bit of a "wth more do I want outta life" crisis
32 isn't too old so you still have a lot of time to figure things out, but time does start going by crazy fast as you get older. I really wish the average lifespan were 200 years or something. Then we'd all have more time to figure out life.
>>
>>8315801
As the other poster said, 32 isnt all that old, I am 35 and went back to school at 32/33. Hard to understand my classmates some but easy to connect with the instructors, and theyre the ones grading you or slipping your name out to industry contacts, right?
>>
>>8315883
Why did you go back? What did you study?
>>
I'm 25 but I've been living as a girl pretty much my whole life. I've had srs and breast implants and the only people in my life who know I'm trans are my family and my bf.
I'm an RN also.
>>
>>8315907
Went back because I do not want to work minimum wage in retail anymore.

Animation is my major, a lot of Game Design for electives, focusing on 3D character sculpture this final year.
>>
Bumping thread. Any more oldies out there?
