Just wondering what moments of gender euphoria or joy you have experienced, was hoping we all might enjoy hearing some positive stories!

I'll start: today, I went to my laser hair removal place to reschedule an appointment and nobody was at the front desk, and after waiting for a while I went to use the ladies room and ran into a woman even taller than me who immediately called me gorgeous and then proceeded to compliment my makeup, earrings, and hair. I was like a deer in the headlights, simply stunned as if I had slipped into an alternate universe where this complete stranger was actually a close friend and I had forgotten. Nobody is that nice to me, let alone a stranger.

Anyway, women can be so wonderful, and this moment made me grateful to be a woman. ๐Ÿ˜Š

That's too much gatekeeping for sure, but at least it seems like those are hoops you can jump through - wishing you luck with the urology visit!

Have you talked to any other trans women have been through this process, who have written the three pages for a psychiatrist, etc.? It might be helpful for anticipating curve-balls they might throw at you, esp. in case they operate under outdated care procedures like the Benjamin Rules.
