Hi there. My name is Nadia. I’m a neurodiverse transgender woman of color living The Netherlands.
I was assigned male at birth, but for most of my life, especially since I started puberty I’ve been suffering from crippling dysphoria regarding my gender. Along with my ADHD, this led to me developing chronic depression, anxiety and agoraphobia in my late teens and young adulthood. Eventually I couldn’t take it any more and realized that the only way I could ever be truly happy is to transition and start living as my most authentic self.
I’ve lived in this body for 31 years, of which only the last 3 I’ve been on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). This, along with things like permanent laser facial hair removal has gone a long way towards helping me look and feel like the woman I know I am. But there’s only so much that hormones can do. It can’t fix the parts of my body that cause me the most dysphoria. Only surgery can change those.
When I first started transition, I didnt want to rush into any surgeries. After all, they’re scary, permanent, invasive and very expensive. I was hoping HRT alone would be enough. But over the past 3 years the pain I feel regarding these specific aspects of my body has been constant and persistent regardless of how much self love I try to practice. It’s not something that’s just going to go away on its own.
Deciding on getting these procedures isn’t a decision I made lightly. It came after years of deliberation and trying everything else I could think of to make this feeling go away.
Over the past 9 months especially, my mental health has gone down the drain. A lot of the time I’m too scared to go outside by myself, because how transphobic society can be to someone like me. My loved ones, family members, and partners have noticed how much worse I’ve gotten. I’ve been feeling hopeless, gross and most of all stuck. Like I’m unable to move forward in any way.
Just like my decision to come out and transition, the decision to get rid of my facial hair using laser hair removal, the decision to go on HRT, having these surgeries really is the best option. It’s the next step I need to take in my transition.
Please consider donating if you’re able to. It would mean the world to me and you’d be helping me out in a big way. If you’re unable to donate please share the link as much as possible.
Thank you. ❤
Wow! Thanks to everyone’s generous donations, I’m already 20% of the way there! You’re all incredible, and I’m so thankful for everyone’s support.
It’s my hope that people keep sharing this page as much as possible to hopefully keep donations coming in and getting me all the way to my donation goal.
Again, thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and generosity. ❤️❤️❤️

I finally made a YouCaring for my transition. Please boost!
I’m really bad at talking about myself, especially for stuff like this, but if you all could share this it would mean the world to me.
Like I say in the fundraiser, I’ve been dysphoric for fifteen years,and that’s fifteen years of depression and anxiety and hoping and praying and working toward that horrible feeling going away soon. My life has been so chaotic that “soon” never came, and even now that I’m a more stable person and in a more stable place, that “soon” is still out of reach.
I can’t really deal with that anymore, so as embarrassed as I am to be asking for money and drawing attention to how unhappy I am with my body, I really felt like I needed to do this.Please help, if you can. Sharing this is a huge, huge help, and as cliche as it sounds if this fundraiser reached its goal it would be life changing.
Thanks for reading. ❤

Hi everybody!
This is Ami Angelwings, the creator & owner of Escher Girls. I said I would drop the link to my LiberaPay after I finished it, and it’s finally up. I decided to go with LiberaPay instead of Patreon because of all the problems with Patreon lately.
If you like Escher Girls & the other stuff I do (such as video game streams, reviews, skits on YouTube, etc) and want to support and help improve them (such as being able to move Escher Girls off of Tumblr, get a domain, make a full glossery, etc), then subscribing to my LiberaPay would really help (:
I made a more detailed list of what I do, what I plan to do, and links to my other sites/videos in my LiberaPay profile if people want to check that out too.

If you don’t want to/can’t subscribe, but still want to support me, I also made a Ko-Fi for one time donations :3

*bows* regardless, thank you all so much for your feedback, submissions, and support throughout the years I’ve run this site, I keep doing it for all of you :3

This Web Series Is Elevating The Lives And Stories Of Trans Men
A popular web series ― one of the only projects of its kind that tells stories of transgender male experience ― is returning for a second season.
The excellent first season of “Brothers,” which has been compared to “Girl” but “with trans guys,” is currently available on Amazon Prime, Vimeo On Demand and SeekaTV. For its second season ― the first episode of which has already been screened at several film festivals ― the creator of the web series wants to continue provide authentic, rich portrayals of the lives and experiences of trans men.

Click here to support Please Help with Annie’s Sex Reassignment Surgery!
Hey y’all. My name is Annie and I’ve been medically transitioning from male to female since October 7th, 2015. Here is my channel’s Youtube playlist.
I’ve come to the point where I want to start the process for bottom surgery. So far I have a consultation on April 10th. Surgery is incredibly expensive despite the insurance I have. Not only do I have to pay for part of the surgery (~$2000), anesthesia (~$2400), hair removal (~$900-$1200) but also living expenses for the 12 week recovery (~$7500). I am definitely going to need help, and anything helps.
I’m starting the fund at $5000 and adjusting according to how much I can save on my own and as more information about costs becomes available. I’ll also leave the fundraiser up until I’ve cleared my debts for the surgery once the final cost has been established.
Thank you for your time and help! Please donate or share/reblog!
