Great video, I really enjoyed it :) We're actually the same age & around the same stage I guess. Isn't it a great feeling finally being on "that road" Good luck & thanks for sharing your story!
I'm so happy for you Nicole that you are finally living your life the way that you want to. Also I totally get the mirror thing and don't understand the negative comments about it. Clearly it's meant to be I think not a only a symbolic symbol of who I see in the mirror now when I look at is who I really am, but also an affirmation type thing to say this is who I am. I'm also a trans woman, and so yes I can totally relate to you about how wonderful it is too finally live your life the way that makes you truly happy. The only difference between us is that I knew from my earliest memories, and by 6 was praying every night to wake up in the morning female. It was also when I made the decision to try and be the best boy\male I could be. Because I was born in 1982 and had no idea that there were millions of people in the world that felt like I did, and it never occurred to me that there was anything that could be done. Plus at that point I had seen how the world treated effeminate males and my mom's opinions about gay people, and so I lived terrified for years even all the way up to the day when I finally came out to her at 24. I do wish I could have transitioned at 5 or 6, but you are right it is nice and very interesting to have experienced life on both sides of the binary gender fence, which being a straight woman makes it so much easier for me to understand my boyfriends, male friends, and acquaintances. But on the flip side I've also dealt with sexism and misogyny, and other societal issues that females have to worry about that males don't. However, still nothing is more interesting than comparing and contrasting how the world\society treats me differently when I was perceived as male versus being perceived as female. That's definitely an experience that someone who transitions very young won't get, but I am really lucky that my male puberty didn't do much to masculinize me, and so it was very easy for me to change my voice to be perceived female. Which I am thankful for not being visibly trans and I wish it wasn't this way, but trans people who are visibly trans have to deal with so much more negativity, harassment, violence, sexual violence, and even murder that a non-visibly trans person doesn't. I wish it weren't that way, and that's why I want to say thank you for sharing your story because the only way to make things better for all trans people is to raise awareness, and educate people about it. They need to understand that it's not a lifestyle choice, and that's it not a choice period even when it comes to making the decision to socially and or medically transition. That's it how we were born, which research is proving more and more everyday. Again I just want to say thank you, and I wish you all the best in your life. And P.S. oh yeah after I started to transition and allowed myself to see males in a different light as well as having them respond to me physically and emotionally as a female that I went from thinking I was bisexual because like you I only dated females as a male because the fake male gender identity I had constructed for myself was a straight one to now I'm 99.9% certain that I'm heterosexual woman. It's funny because the girls and women that I dated were always ones that admired and wanted to like don't know if that was also the case for you, but for the longest time now I haven't found other women sexually or romantically attractive in a really long time.
Wow!! You remind me so much of myself it's not funny haha. I too knew something was up when I was only 6 years old. And every night I prayed that I would wake up as a girl. I was also terrified to show who I truly was and just like you I tried to be the best guy people will ever see, like in Dean supernatural, but that only made me more miserable. I tried my best to suppress, myself for so long and now I am finally embracing myself ^.^ I only came out to my sister and mother. They love and support me no matter what. The only issue I have now is my brother. Also living in south Africa makes it harder for me. :(
Nicole you look amazing !! this is 2016 well i am seeing this in 2021 and i would love to see a new video and see how you have changed ...anyways i wish you all the best !! live your life and be happy !
U R Beautiful! Love the tats! I’m 54 and have just started socially transitioning presenting in feminine clothes just the removal of both body and facial hair as well as wearing feminine clothing haven’t gone out in makeup yet that will take more practice so I’m nowhere close to passing but that’s ok even if that never happens be they self! Thx
This person is a man imitating his idea of what a woman is. At no point are we even told what " I realised I was transgender" means. How self- revealing.

Ah yes, it's a long road, but I'm very happy to travel it :)

🌹💖👍
I envy you 💋💋
Cool video and u look very sexy
1:20 Why should there be anything gender identifying in the sight of those hands? Ain't both/all genders entitled to have hands looking like that?
She is nervious nothing more.
