Hiiii can I ask a personal question? It's okay if you don't want to answer! My partner suspects they might be a trans woman, but they're a bit scared to transition bc they're 34 and they think they're too old for it. I'm being very supportive and telling them that time will pass anyway and that you're never too old to transition, but idk how else to really help. I started my transition at 17 so yeah... Got any words of wisdom that I could give them?

My advice is that I just hung out with my friend who transitioned in her thirties starting last year and she's literally the happiest she's ever been in her life. I can see the light coming back to her eyes every time I hang out with her and she is so filled with joy and love that it makes my heart full whenever I get the chance to interact with her.

It is never, ever too late to make a change that will make you happier. Maybe the best time to do it was yesterday, but the second best time is right now. The only true deadline for transition is death, and lemme tell ya, spending between now and then as a happier, more true version of yourself is the best thing you can do. There's trans people who started in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and hell, even 70s. Probably some people who've done it in their 80s and 90s too! And those people are happier than they were yesterday. I think we should all pursue the happiest version of ourselves, and even if it brings some hardships we wish we could avoid, god, it's worth it. It's so fucking worth it.
