trutranssoulrebl: This is the last before/after photo I will ever share. On the left is the last picture I ever took pre-transition. At that point, I had already made the decision to be who I really was, I just had to work up the guts to do it. I took this photo in the bathroom at work on June 25, 2014 — 8 days before coming out and living as a woman full-time. On the right is me as of November 10, 2015. I’ve been out for over a year, and I’ve been on hormones for about 7 or 8 months. I have met some wonderful, supportive people. I have endured my fair share of hostility from bigots. Not once have I ever looked back. I have no regrets. For the first time, I love myself. For the first time, I don’t want to die. This is me. This is who I am. This is who I’ve always been. That sad, lost little boy is gone. Devon is dead. He’s never coming back. My name is Laura Maureen Syvertsen. I was born on July 3, 2014. I am a proud transgender woman and I’m here to stay. #transgirl #transpride #lgbt #translivesmatter -- source link
