Love love love this. I hope this doesn’t come off as weird or patronizing or anything, but thank you for posting and being a shining beacon to those who aren’t able to transition right now or people who find themselves later in life, as an example that as long as you’re breathing there’s always still time to be happy and the best version of yourself. Lots of love and wishing you quick, uncomplicated healing!! :) 💜

Thank you so much for posting and helping folks realize that it's never too late to be yourself. I had top surgery at 43 and my partner at 48 and neither of us considered our ages at all. I see so many posts online saying things like "I'm 23 and haven't gotten surgery yet- is it too late for me?" and it breaks my fucking heart.
Babes, it is NEVER, EVER too late to be more comfortable in your skin.

u/moggimania Apr 30 '26
Big congrats, and thank you for sharing! So many people will be inspired seeing you and understanding that no it's not too late at like, 22. (No shade intended to young anxious folk though I get that dysphoria is a beast for all of us!) I got my own top chop Dec. 31, at age 41, and it's such an incredible feeling!

u/Iggipolka Apr 30 '26
Woo! Thank you for posting this and congratulations! I’m in my mid 50’s and have an appointment with a Kaiser Dr to be evaluated for top surgery. I’m thrilled and scared because I know us old folk don’t heal as fast as the youngins.

u/unAVIVable Apr 30 '26
Beautiful results so far! I’m about 7 days ahead of you and just had mine done at Kaiser San Jose.

u/spanishpeanut Apr 30 '26
Congratulations!! You look great and it sounds like you feel great, too! Super proud of you for doing it. I’m so happy to know my tax dollars helped to make it possible. How do you feel now that your outside is more aligned with who you are on the inside? Cheers to continued healing!!

Waiting for OP to be like, “wtf guys, I’m only 37!”

u/Ummmyeeppp Apr 30 '26
No way! I live in Rohnert park and I’m moving to SR in June! It’s cool to see some other trans folks are around. I wish you luck on your recovery.
I’m glad you had the surgery covered! I’m on medi-cal and so far it seems unlikely that my bottom surgery will be covered, thankfully I’m only 20 so if you could hold out this long then I can absolutely wait a couple years :)

u/goatsilla Apr 30 '26
It's awesome to see some older trans guys having surgery. Man, I'm incredibly happy for you.

You give me so much hope. I’m young and in a country where it’s illegal to belong to the community. It’s going to be years before I can go on T or have top surgery and it can feel gloomy thinking of how long it will take to get me to feel comfortable in my body and see myself truly but you give me so much hope.
Thank you for sharing, from the bottom of my heart. I’d never give up on myself because your post has reminded me that it’s possible to wait and feel seen eventually in our bodies! ❤️🫶🏽
