things I've learned, transitioning late in life.

Things I've learned, transitioning late in life:

1. pantyhose are evil. so are stockings.
2. I will get called "sir" until I die.
3. my face absorbs makeup in minutes, making it look like I didnt put any on. Even if I used a paint roller.
4. shaving as a woman is much, much worse, if only because I'm expected to shave a larger area
5. nobody can tell what gender you are when you're wearing a parka
6. I'm not the most endowed girl ever, but boy, bras are useful things.
7. Trans PMS is a thing.
8. much like before I transitioned, I can only admire high heels from a distance, and cant wear them.
9. I messed up bad, and cant have gender confirmation surgery. It sucks, but that's life.
10. despite everything, I'm glad I've done as much of a transition as I have.
