Slowly developing a crush on them

The education ministry issued a landmark notice on Thursday, urging local education boards to ensure that schools do more to cater to children who believe they were born the wrong gender.

The move, which comes amid rising sensitivity toward sexual minorities by Japanese society and officialdom, will oblige schools to pay greater attention to the needs of transgender students. The measures include, for example, paying heed to students’ gender identity as much as possible by allowing them to use whichever bathroom or locker room they prefer.

It also says other sexual minority students — gays, lesbians, and bisexuals — deserve greater accommodation, the first such notice of its kind.

Some schools have allowed transgender children to wear the uniform of the gender they identify as, but the latest ministry notice will encourage all schools to do so — from elementary level to high school.

Today is my official 1 year on T! I’m still feeling pretty dysphoric cause I don’t think I’ve changed that much, but I’m trying to stay positive.

Here’s hoping for better days and a long life ahead of me.

I am so grateful that I have been able to transition successfully and from a young age. I have never been happier than I am now. :) And let me just say I am so happy to see so many fellow trans* folk on my dash today, I want it to be like that everyday! We are all so diverse, it is literally the most inspiring thing. Happy TVoD <3

if you're wearing a binder right now

it’s time for a stretch to get some blood moving

reach for the sky, arms pressed against your ears

let your body stretch up, feel your torso unfold

now lean gently to the left

then to right

relax your arms and hold them to your body as you twist left, then twist right

give a little shake

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!

For my contribute to TDOV I want show you that things can get much better in just a year. In march 2014 I was just about to start gender therapy and I was a wreck from all the dysphoria and anxiety. I worked hard during the year and I do no longer have anxiety, I still have dysphoria, but working out has reduced it a lot. I´ve learned to live my life in a way that works for me, even though I´m not where I want to be in life. 

The left photo is from the day I got my diagnose, I was so happy that I got the information that I´ll hopefully get treatment within 6 months. Hormones is not the only way to happiness for a trans masculine, it´s inner peace and working on yourself as well. Though I long for the day my voice and outer self match the inside much more.

Stay strong my friends. I´ve made it this far throughout my 24 years and it will only get better.

In honor of trans visibility day

Here’s to the young people just starting to explore their gender. The ones who feel “too old” to just now be figuring things out but “too young” to be certain. You’re valid. No matter what decision you come to, no matter what label you end up using.

There’s no age restriction for gender exploration. There’s no specific age range where you “discover” that you’re trans. Everyone discovers themselves in different ways and at different points in their life.

If you’re 13 or 30, you’re still allowed to explore your gender. You’re not too young or too old. Have fun, explore yourself, figure out who you are!!

[lamedudeconnor]

I am proud of the woman I am becoming. I can finally say that I’m happy with myself. It’s been a long road but I still have so far to go. I am excited to see what the future brings me.
