Hi all! I made an intro post towards the start of the year on my previous Piefed account, and just realised I haven’t reintroduced myself on my new account lol.

I’m 34, m2f trans, not on hormone therapy (currently, maybe later on). My background is I’m half Filo and half Australian.

This pic is from last night, where I went out to a couple of bars by myself, and genuinely got treated like a lady on a night out, not a single odd stare or glance (that I noticed anyway), and I didn’t get misgendered once!! I was so happy just being a part of the crowd and fitting in. Even had a few guys try to pick me up throughout the night haha, 2 of whom at least acted surprised when they found out I’m trans hahaha.

Anyway, thanks for reading if you made it this far. After seeing many of the pics of the other ladies on here, I’m fairly self conscious about posting pics of me on here too, but hey screw it right lol. Glad to be a member of this fantastic community <3

          Thankyou!

          I’m thinking Abbotsford at this stage, but also super open to Thornbury and Coburg (loved the vibe around Thornbury and High Street)

    Hey and welcome back. Hope you had a great time in Melbourne.

    Going out alone as myself is so exciting and it’s so affirming when strangers treat me right and gender me right. It sounds life it was a really nice few nights.

      Thank you so much!! I love these shoes too, but after a whole night out in them I’m definitely paying the price today haha.

      Nice to meet you too

      Seriously? What’s giving off Eddie Izzard vibes?

      EDIT: Well if your goal was to make me feel shit, congrats

        I love Suzy Izzard and think she looks great, but it’s fucking insane to say that you look like her. She’s like 64 and she has a completely different face and body and style and presentation to you. The commenter above is a complete idiot.

        You’re so beautiful. Don’t let that shit get in your head.
