A community for transfeminine people and experiences.

This is a supportive community for all transfeminine or questioning people. Anyone is welcome to participate in this community but disrupting the safety of this space for trans feminine people is unacceptable and will result in moderator action.

Debate surrounding transgender rights or acceptance will result in an immediate ban.

This community is supportive of DIY HRT. Unsolicited medical advice or caution being given to people on DIY will result in moderator action.

Posters may express that they are looking for responses and support from groups with certain experiences (eg. trans people, trans people with supportive parents, trans parents.). Please respect those requests and be mindful that your experience may differ from others here.

To make such a request, at the start of the body of your post, not in the title, the first line should look like the this: [Requesting Engagement from _________]

I've been closeted for years now. It's not safe for me to be/express who I really am, and I have no idea if or when I'll ever be able to develop into an actual person. I intend to survive anyway, if only for the hope that I might somehow, someday make existence a little more bearable for others.

I find that I'm a bit more motivated to keep going when I've watched/read/listened to stuff that reminds me why I even try. Stuff that's beautiful and/or believes that it's worth it. Stuff that reminds me that I'm not the only one to do this, that I'm connected to everyone who came before and will come after, and that we're not alone.

What helped you survive what you went through? What helps you now?

Can be anything really, as long as it's something I can get my hands on via the internet. Preferably stuff without too much of a time investment (neurodivergence means I effectively have very little productive time), but honestly, I just want to hear from you.

Hello fellow closet resident! Umm… I have been watching a lot of Americas top model because I like to learn beauty stuff and practice poses that are more feminine.
