I’m here for the transmen who are soft and sweet and kind.

I’m here for the transmen who are rough and stern and fierce.

I’m here for the transmen who want nothing but to help others heal their wounds.

I’m here for the transmen who want to know what it’s like to get in a fistfight; who want bloody knuckles, broken noses, and black eyes.

I’m here for the transmen who don’t mind still doing makeup or painting their nails.

I’m here for the transmen who work out daily and achieve muscle tone that hides every hint of “curves” they ever once had.

I’m here for the transmen who want to date girls but might be scared of being told they’re “just a confused lesbian”.

I’m here for the transmen who want to date boys but are scared they won’t be taken seriously.

I’m here for the transmen who don’t mind the gender of their partners but just as nervous to make that step.

I’m here for the heartbroken transmen who’ve been told they’re “insane” or “possessed by demons” or “freaks” by their families.

I’m here for the lonely transmen whose family “loves them” but doesn’t respect them.

I’m here for my transmen just coming to terms with themselves.

I’m here for the transmen who need reminders even after years that they are so strong.

I’m here for the transmen who don’t want to leave one box to be shoved into another.

I’m here for the transmen who just want to be themselves.

You’re loved.

I’m almost 7 months on hrt and I just wanna say…

Everybody’s transition is different. Some changes might feel like they’re overnight and some might feel like they’ll never happen. Changes occur at different rates, that’s normal and okay! I didn’t expect my period to stop happening for at least 3 months after I started testosterone; one month in I got a very light period and that was the last time it ever happened. I thought my voice would start cracking within a month of starting, but it didn’t start until about 4 months after. I’m only just now developing facial hair, and some guys get it almost immediately.

Everybody is different. You shouldn’t compare yourself to other people because your body is unique in so many ways. Give your body time and respect.

If you’re worried your transition is happening too slow or not at all, take videos and/or pictures! People tend not to notice slow changes with their own body, and making records can help with that.

And if you aren’t on HRT yet ~ don’t worry! Some day you will be, and it’ll absolutely be worth the wait.
