I was planning to write a longer post for this mega and then Silksong happened so... oops?

Short version is this week is my 9th tranniversary. I don't remember which day exactly so I like to say it was 9/11 so I'd never forget. What ultimately cracked my egg all those years ago was not the deep yearning when looking at women that I couldn't identify as envy or the increasingly intense and umm horny dreams where I had the power to instantly change my gender. No it was that fucking faceapp gender swap filter. I just kept staring at that pic like it was a mirror into an alternate universe where I was happier and suddenly everything clicked into place. The first few years were hit or miss with a lot of other life changes happening at the time that interfered with getting properly started so in some ways it's more like a 5 or 6 year tranniversary but whatever. vivian-shrug

It's weird to say I'm almost done but I really am so close to making all the changes I wanted. I'll never stop being trans, but I'm definitely moving from trans(itioning) femme to trans(itioned) femme and that's quite exciting. And maybe a little wistful looking back at the journey.

Have a good week everyone!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

DANCE REPORT:

Preliminary results:

  1. The "feminine" dance class my uni offers for some reason don't accept beginners
  2. One of only 2 guys that know looked at me today and started asking me how the fuck did my parents not notice that I'm transitioning. This is a good sign?
  3. I was really satisfied with the look I made. It could be on the very of androgenous if I had longer hair and a girlie face. It's the best I can do right now without raising questions

Main event:

  1. I did the dance. TWO OF THEM! This was supposed to just be a hangout so most of the event consisted of the expert dancers dancing with each other while us noobs chatted in the corner.
  2. I'm not good at dancing.
  3. Holy shit dancing is so horny.
  4. 2 of the newbie guys told me that if they have to pay for classes there is no way they will accept dancing with a male partner. Kinda fucking cringe imo. Maybe I just lack the bias cause I'm bi, and also I'm here to dance not to find romance.

It sucks that some guys use this as a way to pick up chicks. I do pole fitness and there's sometimes one guy in a class of 12, and its a crapshoot if hes gay and funny or if hes gonna be a creepy asshole that paid to look in a room of beginner pole people. Wish cishet guys could take a fucking break sometimes, cause they can be hot ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Yeah, this shit is wild to me. I can't imagine paying for a class just to ogle people. And everyone can tell that they're not actually into what they're supposed to be learning. Side note: I really want to do pole fitness but I have no fucking time.

Back when I did dance lessons with my mom I'd ask her to alternate back and forth between lead and follow (come to think about it this is almost certainly egg shit lmao) so a lot of the people in that social circle knew I could do both and sometimes one of the guys would dance with me when there were a lot of guys at an event. Most of the guys were weird about it though. Like chill out I'm wayyyyyyyyy too young for you anyway I just wanna dance doggirl-tears

One of only 2 guys that know looked at me today and started asking me how the fuck did my parents not notice that Iโ€™m transitioning. This is a good sign?

I'd take it as a win.
