I know you're out there! If you're part of /c/TransLater, make yourself heard!
Maybe some questions will help.
Tell us your name and where are you from? Maybe a bit about yourself
What do you enjoy spending your time on?
How have things been going as you navigate the combination of "Trans" and "Later" in your life?
What's a question you have for other folk in the sub?

Hey everyone! I’m Michelleshe/her, from Berlin. I’m a 44 year old trans mom (3 kids), I started transitioning just shy of two years ago. “Currently” (since 2020) getting divorced – an awful and tortuous process. But hey, I’m out, and I’m finally starting to enjoy life. For me, coming out as trans was a sort of precondition for making real friends, and my happiness levels have shot up as a result. It definitely sucks getting older but oh well, I’m still a million times happier than I was four years ago (when I was totally isolated and depressed and generally in an awful way). I’ve been really lucky with HRT… I just love it, it’s that simple.
Like seemingly every other transfem (programmer at least!) on the planet I have ADHD… I’m a little chaotic at the best of times.
I enjoy programming (C++ and Python mostly)… I’m into programming languages (I just wrote a pratt parser for an extensible, whitespace-sensitive language) and ML. In a past life, I was a quant, a failed musician, and a failed entrepreneur.
If you’re in Berlin or Germany and are just getting started on your journey, message me – I’d be happy to hook you up with relevant telegram groups and regular events. Berlin is the queer capital of Europe imho...
I was a quant
Now I'm curious. What is a quant?
it stands for "quantitative analyst"... they're the (numerate) programmers who sit on the trading desk, and create pricing models and risk management tools for traders
