Ooooh I am an official asset and or sleeper agent, how exciting.

That starterpack was so good I showed it to my therapist recently, she really dug into each item and we discussed how exactly it relates and at what point I first had it apply etc… I would not be surprised to find her show it to people who are questioning ^^

For real though, I did research on the topic of gender identity as part of my BSc in psychology. I had a bunch of ‘this trans specific experience is relatable to me’ moments but I always put it aside. I finally started to ask myself at some point how many ‘relatable’ moments do I need to have for them to be statistically significant … so I started questioning joined the instance here and was totally not trans. Just working things out and I was quite sure I might just be non binary.

A meme you shared was an egg_irl starter pack, made it onto my local feed.

I thought okay show me what you’ve got and marked all the things that I felt I relate to. It was all but two of the items. That combined with my rateable moments finally did crack my egg for good. I have started the process and long road to HRT and can now finally put into words what I have been suppressing for the last 20 years.

PS: I only wish you would have done that when I was 12, when I was experimenting being a girl in secret, alone in my room without internet 😅 took you long enough :3 😜

Now I am left with one question, what are you gonna make with all the eggs you have cracked? Omelette, pancakes or something else? Do you just collect them like Pokémon?

**edit for time line corrections and adding of the meme post in question.

It’s because the difference between “fem” and “feminine” is taken literally in terms of spelling but not meaning and thus it is “inine”. It’s like asking what’s the difference between “top” and “topping” and someone says “ping”.

I hope my attempt makes it clearer.

Ooooh that makes sense, thanks for providing me with memes and explanations when I am confused! I appreciate your work :3

It took me 6h to understand what you mean… but I finally got there and now I can appreciate the dad joke.

I keep seeing this connection, I never played the game (and don’t really intent to) but I was wondering, how is this game related, what sets it apart or how come this connection exists? Like what’s the deal here? 🫣 could you enlighten a girl?

Okay, good then the post isn’t linked to any specific ”because of today’s incident”-incident and it’s just the regular everyday doom.

Little tangent: I read the headline as ‘rejected’ instead of ‘respected’ got mad, read the article and was yelling ‘that’s the opposite of what you said!’ Then I read the commends and was all ??? So I re-read the headline and noticed my mistake…

I am happy that you are happy!

Hope the laser does it’s thing well for you!

I hope they stay rare, better yet don’t return at all. Hopefully you have the support you need if they were to come back, also note, that you can always reach out to me and probably to others here as well if you are feeling down!

Yeah something like that 🤭. I give it a proper watch when I am not on mobile.

PS: The 4 adds within 10min killed me, I haven’t been on YT without blocker for years didn’t realise it’s that bad…

Me trying to work out if you work for big laser or are not:

Asking for a friend, what are the effects of a moderate amount of that stuff on the skin and does it leave the skin smooth :3?

Also what have they done to deserve a free bath special?

Oh god that must have been quite painful, I only engaged in some plucking and that was quite irritating 🥹 can’t imagine doing my whole face.

I’ve got an appointment today to potentially get that whole HRT thing on the way. So maybe, fingers crossed, in half a year, at the earliest, I may be able to start that. Hope it will help with that.

But I swear the cupboard now tempts me like the green goblin. Saying that big laser doesn’t want me to know about it, I only have to try 🤣

Bit late to the party, but this is a German internal culture war. Basically each village has its own name for those. Some names make more sense then others… Berlin calls them essentially pancakes other places call them Berliner and no one is giving an inch on what to call them.

Congrats! I am in a pretty similar situation. I just started the process to get HRT. In terms of clothing I just bought a few things I liked. The style I always liked on women and now I walk about as a semi alternative pastel sorta pastel goth. It’s great fun and I love it. One day I might share some pictures. No promises though.

In terms of make up I asked a while ago and pretty much it is self learn via the platform of choice. I also went into a store and checked who of the ladies working there wears make up I love / would want myself. Then I asked her for advice and what to buy. That has helped greatly.

Asylum means that you get refugee status, you do not have to be in a refugee home. It would however prevent the authorities from sending you back at any point. Because you are protected.

I am just trying to help you…

I am so sorry, I hope you find a way. I would not stay in Russia I don’t think things are going to improve any time soon.

You had two avenues to leave 1. Apply for asylum in Germany or other European Union members.

I would not take Hungary or Poland at this time possibly others from the Balkan I am not too informed there. But Germany and the Baltic states are good. You could get asylum because you are trans and Russia is a threat to you. This path is difficult, and requires a lot of paperwork.

The less elegant version is you apply for a travel visa, take a few day vacation in the country and just don’t leave and claim refugee status. Nod advised because of the unknowns but it may work for you because you are trans.

2. Visa route Easier might be to apply for university or jobs (doesn’t matter what) in Germany, France, Spain or Baltic Countries. Once you have the visa for working or Study you can migrate over. Then you apply for a permit to stay.

In both cases in these countries should HRT be offered to you as basic health care need. You might have to pay for it you might not. But it should be possible to get it. It is difficult to give blanket advise and if you were to ask for a specific EU country it would be easier.

So overall I’d say Germany, Spain, Baltics are your best options.

I am kinda aiming for instant, 100% complete effects. Though I am not sure whom or what I need to bribe for that, or with what but if I get there I let you all know.

Welcome and happy to meet you!

I myself started this journey just a few months ago. I long had the same experience, to keep my wish to be a girl confined to games and fantasies.

Growing up in the 90s as well, there was (and still is) a lot of homophobia in my home village. So as a kid I figured anything more exotic surly would mean social suicide. In a small village of 5000 people not really a good option. When you can’t leave or change schools. So I pushed that part deeeeeeep down but I also had several occasions where I really should have noticed that it does not work like that but I didn’t.

Besides as a 13year old to wear your sisters clothing and feeling amazing is a totally cis boy thing to do… :3 but also don’t tell anyone about it.

I told my wife last December that I have these fantasies and we are working things out now together. It is good that you have your wife’s support, to me it has been invaluable! We were visiting my family in Germany at the time so I am extra curious to hear more about your journey in my old home! I also will have too look into these things myself as I am still a German citizen.

If you need someone to talk to just sent me a DM I just happen to have just finished my BSc in Psychology and embark now on a mission to find a job! (Meaning I’ve got some time on my hands)

Welcome again,
