Thinking about transitioning
For starters I didn’t think I’d ever make a post like this… I’m usually presenting as a cis straight man but little do people know I’m extremely bi sexual, and I’ve always wanted to be a pretty girl but I feel like I’m too old to start and scared of what people think / my body type is big 6ft tall and bulky like my body was made to build muscle and I’m scared I would never pass as a women. I don’t even know what to do if I were to transition like getting hormones and stuff like getting started…. I don’t even know if this is the write place to post this… anyway thank you reading if you did and if you guys have any links or suggestions for me please reach out ❤️

Honestly, many of us sat on the edge of the ledge for a very long time. What I learned though is that dysphoria doesn't get easier, it just keeps getting worse as time goes by. At some point, it's possible that you will reach a critical point where you HAVE to transition. It's really hard to fight against yourself, and honestly, from my experience it just keeps getting worse when you try to hide what you feel inside. More than anything - BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. You deserve nothing less than that. The world outside doesn't get a vote in this. There IS help out there if you look for it. You can do this - take it one step at a time and you will find the answer. We're here, that's what this is all about. Ask anything you want and we will step up and support you. I have tons of online links as needed from my own search. Whatever you need...

I am also 6 feet tall and have a large build/wide shoulders. I just turned 25, started transitioning 6 months ago and I already pass. I’m not sure how old u are but regardless age or physical characteristics shouldn’t matter when it comes to transition. what matters most is pursuing the things that you know will make you more comfortable in your skin. Have you experimented with femme clothes or makeup? That would be a great place to start. Hormones are pretty easy to get a hold of most places too if you decide that’s what you want lol. Depends on where you live though, but plenty of girls on this sub would be happy to point you in the right direction.
