A lot of us experience dysphoria about a lot of things. Personally, one of my biggest points of dysphoria is my facial/body hair and masculine sounding voice.

We believe this should be a community where all trans people are welcome to give and receive support on their journey.

Feel free to rant about what’s been bothering you and try and comment on someone else’s comment with some encouragement! It can really go a long way to brightening someone’s day!

Love to all my trans brothers, sisters, enbies and all other flavors of people who live as they are ❤️

    Congrats on cracking the egg! Freshly shaved legs are just a vibe 😍. I totally feel you on the dysphoria 😭 It helps me label it: okay yeah this is major dysphoria, it sucks, let’s move on brain. It’s still freaking hard though.

    But ughhhhhhhhh

    Wait, are you me? Girl, know you’re not alone and please be kind to yourself ❤️

      thanks for the kind words! i’m quite proud of my province’s stance on lgbtq+ issues (we even removed/are removing gendered language from our legislation!) but i was raised by a conservative family in a conservative part of the province, so i was quite bigoted (especially transphobic) for a good chunk of my life. i’ve worked on it a lot but i would not be surprised if it affects the way i view myself. i’m still not sure what my identity is, i just know that i want to be less of a guy

        That’s so cool to be in a place where it’s accepted! Btw sorry for assuming your gender! I’m proud of you that you’re allowing you to discover yourself ❤️ It can be hard to let yourself feel the way you are if you have suppressed your inner self for so long because of the environment you grew up in. It takes time and that’s totally fine! ☺️
