Speaking as a slightly older-than-tumblr-average trans woman (I’m 41), we’re out here. It’s just that most of my peers don’t hang out on Tumblr, they’re on Facebook or Twitter.

I’ll be 37 this year. Wow … that hurt to say, a little. But yeah, we’re here. <3

39 here, and quite proud of it. Also not on Facebook for what it’s worth. I like the peers I have here on Tumblr. :)

*sigh* fine. FINE. 

i’m… 39. i just turned 39.

i’m only owning up to it because i was terrified of transitioning at 34 and i would do anything to alleviate that fear for someone else. 

we are NEVER talking about this again tho

35 now (just got home from a shoot and an outcall when this was taken)

… the women above me give me lots of hope and joy

THIS IS MAKING ME SO HAPPY OMG

It’s always really nice seeing pictures of older trans people, because quite often on here it’s the transitioning teenagers, and it’s scary because it makes it feel like we don’t have a future

y’all are beautiful and amazing, please keep being you!

I will be turning 40 in April and I  am just getting ready to start HRT.

This is just a list of people my soon-to-be 37 year-old self should be following…

Always reassuring to be reminded that I’m not the only 35+ y.o. transwoman on here!

40 y.o. here. Started HRT 6 months ago.

Beautiful!! It’s comforting to see any older trans people online, tbh.

I’m 37 and counting! If I look younger, it’s because I have that whole autistic baby face thing going. Check my #autisticselfie tag to see more of my face!

Cheers!

Wow. This post has quite a LOT more re-blogs and likes than when I added my picture a few months ago. I just looked at the tags, comments, notes. I see all the young trans folks out there who write about how seeing us older trans women being alive and well gives them hope that they too can go on to live fulfilling lives. Honestly? I was teary-eyed going through the messages. If putting my silly face out there has helped someone in any way, then I am so happy, and so proud. I wish I could hug all of you. Seeing this much love has made me so happy.

please share thread with all the older trans women you know!! make other marginalized trans women feel like there is a long future ahead of them and things do get better!!!

35 years old, ~3 months on HRT! It’s so good to see other people like me and my age on this weird blue hellsite.

34 years old and nearly 4 months on HRT. I cannot wait to see what happens next!

This thread was just me losing it @ girls i know and love
