hi there, the world is kinda spooky scary right now. I didn't look very hard but I've been fairly active on the forums the past few days and despite seeing a lot of trans people, I haven't seen anything directly like this so I thought I'd make a place to talk about trans stuff among likeminded homestuckly individuals
a little background: I'm transfem and nonbinary and I've been on estrogen since my 15th birthday. I've had it honestly crazy easy because my family has other trans people in it and i've gotten really lucky with the medical system. but not everyone has had these opportunities! and so I've tried to give my support where I'm able to those in bad situations, and the world right now is just in general a pretty bad situation
I'm hoping this thread can give people a place to share their experiences and ask for/give advice and stuff. can also apply to people questioning and even just some good faith questions from cis people.
much love to all of you, hope you're staying safe
the epilogues are the best part of homestuck
I'm a transfem system of over 30 members, all with their own gender stuff going on. I couldn't tell you the words to describe how we all do our genders, because we've never checked. Ever since coming out my life has gotten fantastic, I have a wonderful polycule and I've recovered from a lot of traumatic experiences. I've been on HRT for... almost 2 years? My wife gets jealous that I have bigger boobs despite starting later which is fun to tease her about. It was actually the positive reception to June getting confirmed that gave me the courage to come out, so Homestuck is pretty important to me.

I've been falling under the trans/nonbinary umbrella for a few years now!!
Although, I personally struggle with labeling myself and prefer to just refer to myself as an androgynous queer, since every time I've tried to put a label it only ends up lasting about a year-
I do kind of lean to a more transmasc approach and appearance more regularly, and I'm trying to get set up for top surgery in the future!!
(although I'm having a hard time figuring out everything I need to get done to apply for it in my country-)
But good news is that I recently sent out legal documents for an approved name change that will hopefully go through all right and I can be known for the named I picked instead of the name I was given!! :]
aw yeah, awesome signature
Transfem, I've known for a good portion of my life; (10-ish years? I think??) and have been out for a considerably smaller portion of my life: I live in a conservative state, but most people I've outed myself to have been treating me as well as they can, which is nice atleast! Reading through this page and seeing people talk about their experience of transgenderism has been quite a pleasant experience and I am thoroughly pleased to know we're all together in this :^) You're all very cool!!! Keep being cool!!!
wishing you the best
i have been exploring my identity for a long time now and i don't think i've found a box i cleanly fit into. i don't really have anyone irl that i could safely talk to about this stuff, which sucks, but what can you do. hope you all are doing well today
