About r/TransLater
While /r/asktransgender and other trans groups are great, some of us have families, partners, careers, and all the other trappings of not being in our 20s any more. Here's somewhere to talk about these things and the issues we face in transitioning. This is not a fetish group or a place for chasers, crossdressers and posts attracting chasers are highly discouraged. Please be aware of our rules. Note that all new accounts will be moderated. Onlyfans and thirst traps are not allowed here.
