I don’t ever really see myself having a decent job. FFS feels like Its off the table.
I avoid FFS not because I can’t afford, but because I don’t think the pain and stress of getting a surgery there is worth the change in appearance. My planned alternative is kigurumi.
FFS means Facial Feminization Surgery, for anyone who hasn’t heard of that acronym.
Thank you. Why do people use acronyms everywhere, without any context ?
Because this isn’t without context. It’s a commonly recognised term in the trans community, used by a trans person speaking to other trans folk.
Of course, not all trans folk know the term even then, but still, the vast majority of people this question is intended for will understand the term
I was able to access FFS, but only because I transitioned late in life and was able to spend my superannuation (something like 401K for those in the US)
If given the choice between FFS, or transitioning at your age, I’d choose to have transitioned at your age.
How late did you start?
41
That gives me lots of hope. I thought I was starting too late at ~31.
No such thing as too late. There is later than we would have liked, but even that isn’t too late :)
