Fellow MTF here: for anyone confused, it stands for Mobile Task Force. But srsly good luck on your journey, and congrats so far! It always feels awesome to see more trans people online!
@@SnowTheKitsune i just imagine you sitting there, reading like "at *redacted date*, SCP-317 breached containment. The Male-to-Females were deployed" 😂😂
I haven’t been back to the channel in a while, a lot has changed since then and I’m so happy that you’re on your way to becoming more of who you are. I hope you keep well in the ever changing world and find happiness with your body
I think it's really cool to show the cosmetic stuff as "yeah I know it's not inherently related to transition but it makes me feel more comfortable" because dysphoria (idk if these are dysphoria related or not for robin specifically) can happen about weird things that a lot of ppl wouldnt see as mattering to gender but it does to the person. Ty Turner has a great video about strange dysphoria triggers
I’m really enjoying being on this journey despite the trails and tribulations and I’m just so happy to see you going where you want to go. Thank you for sharing and being an amazing role model! ☺️
Robin: "So we watched Guardians 2..." Me: Oh I know exactly where this is going So, basically you're going through PMS constantly and as a woman I feel that. Welcome to being an emotional hormonal mess lol
About the nose comment: we who are trans know what surgeries we need to help lessen our dysphoria. I just got a hysterectomy, and while men/afab enbies CAN have a uterus and ovaries, having that shit gave me dysphoria. Anyway, Robin, you're beautiful and I hope the surgery goes well!! I feel like we've transitioned a bit together in a sense since I got both my surgeries after I started watching you and I'm just sooo proud of you!! Much love from Enby💛
Honestly, getting the plumbing taken out was one of the best things I've done as far as alleviating my dysphoria. It's been a decade of not having to worry about all that downstairs inner business, and I'm so much more happy for it.
What sucks though is that the more cosmetic surgeries that would alleviate dysphoria are almost never covered by insurance. So it's great if you have enough money to just pay for those yourself, but not many of us do
@@anthonyislate yeah that is the sucky part, my surgeon had to peer-to-peer review to get insurance to approve it after originally denying it (the hysto, my top surgery thankfully wasn't as much of a hassle)
Makes me so dang happy to see the progress you're making ♥Might feel like there's still a long way to go, but you've also come SO far already and I'm just so excited to see things keep changing. Also your makeup is fantastic and you're gorgeous. Also also that was a *flawless* outro :P
Robin I've been really loving these update videos! They're very educational, I'm genderfluid personally and biologically I'm comfy where I am but I have a good handful of friends who are trans and I always feel like a dingus asking them questions, but I learn a lot following your journey. Also just super wholesome hearing you "suffer"? Lol that sounds terrible, but come on that hair removal sounded like straight up torture
Don't know if you'll even see this, but I can see some changes towards the positive in you. It warms my cold heart seeing the happiness on your face with each update as you get just that much closer to your true authentic self. I'm "holding my thumb" that the UK script works out for you. Thank you for sharing your journey!
I am so happy for you and I hope the rest of the transition goes well. Wish you only the best. You got this. Also your videos are always so calming and entertaining. Can't wait to see future videos and more updates!
If you're considering going international for trans surgery, may i suggest Thailand! MTF surgeries are super easy to get there, they've been doing em forever. Idk the process tho, but i do have a friend flying there for a revision next week
Congrats on how far you have come! Deep breath cause you got this! I get really nauseous during that time of the month but I just sip on warm ginger tea and it seems to help. Also, for the sore nipples, a warm compress might help soothe them. I hope this helps! Hugs!
Wow good for you!!! I really pray your transition goes well!. I am so happy for you and love your content all these years and will def do my best to support your journey and channel as best as I can this year!
So I havent been around since you announced your transition, just life stuff keeping me busy, BUT YOU SEEM SO MUCH MORE CONFIDENT AND HAPPY. Im sitting here smiling so hard and about to cryyyyyy
It's so good to hear from you again. I've been away from your channel a long time now, but I have been keeping up with your transition. I'm so happy for you and I'm sending you well wishes.
Wow, you have made so much progress already. Prepare yourself for the "it's finally done" moment. From what I've heard, that's going to be a lot. Emotionally.
You’re so sweet, Robin, I’m so glad things are going in the right direction for you! 💗 Also side note - I had no idea about the “thumbs held” thing. Gonna start doing that 😆
Happy for you Robin!!! Big progress on the way, always fun to see that you can be discouraged by the time it is taking, but still be hopeful for the future. You can do this. It is a journey that you will be proud of when older .
Woah, I remember starting hrt right around when you did, and hearing you say "almost a year" made my head swim, yeah it has been! We're doing so well!!
Wow, Robin! I'm so happy for you and so glad you're getting to where you wanna be! It's always weird but fun to find yourself enjoying the parts that aren't intended to be happy moments, and I'm grateful that seems to be the case for you too. I hope HRT gives you everything you're wishing for, it's amazing seeing the boost in your mood :-D
damn, time flies! although you have to wait for so much bureaucratic shit, you'll see, this new year will be over in just a blink of an eye! happy for your progress! 💜 also, you already have a very smooth and pretty voice, so I'm sure you'll manage to achieve your goal successfully! u go girl 💪💃✨
to each their own. it takes courage to make a change, whether it's for the better is always up to the individual. I wish you the best going forward. :)
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO!( It's so funny and informative) Seriously though I am soo happy you are seeing the results you are after and things will work out in time . Good luck with the surgeries whenever they come up!!! ❤️❤️❤️(thumbholds for luck I suppose 😅)
Robin, it's so good to hear that everything is coming together! Even though it sounds like you need a T O N of patience, so I'm sending good vibes and more patience for it all (it's stackable, don't worry, it'll last for at least the next months)
12:00 it honestly saddens me that how much us as trans people have to hold off, wait and go through just so we can _prove_ that we _really_ are trans to cis people who have almost no idea what we experience because our transitional facilities lay in their hands
I get pmdd and it's basically extreme pms, so every month I've the joy of depression, nausea, severe headaches, eating like I'm pregnant, painful body parts and crying over everything 😅 Welcome to this world Robin! This side of it sucks, but I'm glad you're there 💜 Ps: good luck with the rhinoplasty! I hope it goes well.
Last time I checked this channel was like... Idk man back when the box headed Jacksepticeye animations were vaguely recent. And now I'm happy to see this stuff, bless you
Wow, you already look so much softer! On multiple levels. How cool! And as somebody who is has been on hrt just a little bit longer than you, I absolutely recognise the "weird" happiness about little inconveniences that correlate with who you are and what you feel like you should be experiencing. It's kind of a childish happiness/belonging feeling to me. And being someone with severe depression, that's saying quite a bit. Though I'm sure you might like the "you're so cute" comments that I'm sure you get a lot, because you are, a bit more than I currently do :D
I am 17 years old and are going through hormone therapy FTM. I would absolutely rather applying gel than getting the shot into my leg muscle every 2 weeks (for now, will be getting a new one soon) but my country doesnt have gel. its super painful for me but i feel so good after. I feel manly but it means i cant walk well for a few days until my leg stops aching. I was aware that it would take years to get onto a waiting list for bottom surgery so i started early. i got diagnosed with Gender Dysphoria a year ago and i have to wait another year until im the legal age to start getting top surgery.
i say this every video but it just keeps getting more ture: watching these videos of your transition process makes me so damn happy I'm so happy you're getting to do all of this for yourself and I know it's hard but I'm happy for you anyway
That ending...oh my goodness you're adorable. 🤣 But geez, you're going through a alot, I'll be so happy for you once all of this is done and over. (well, I'm happy for you now cause of how things are going currently..but i'll be MORE happy in the end? haha) I could never be strong enough to willing go through pain/discomfort like this, so I'm very much rooting for you ☺ I lost feeling in my limbs when you talked about the needle shock part, at first I was interested to do it for myself, theen my body tapped out on the idea lol. I'm good at dealing with pain, but I'm not good at willingly seeking it out even though it might help me mentally/emotionally in the long run. 😑
Robin you are always so adorable. I am sorry to hear that there is still so much nonsense ahead of you , but I am happy you are finding your way along through it. Keep it up 👍 Be well and I hope you had a great holiday.
Transman on hrt since March 2018 here~ Having had to have lived as a person with breasts my whole life (still pre top surgery) i can tell you, you gotta be careful with those puppies! Could try keeping a hot pack or bottle of hot water, or if you prefer cold for helping your discomfort - an ice pack or a bottle of Frozen water - to cuddle for chest soreness or discomfort. You might need to start massaging the area. D; I have frequent stomach issues so I have to figure out how to deal with nausea and other stomach problems - I keep something called papaya enzyme around and it helps almost immediately with nausea. They taste like candy and are chewable so they're quite palatable! Usually can be found near the vitamins in pharmacies/supermarkets. For medical bills - would it be possible to ask for an itemized list of the charges? Sometimes itemizing can knock off unnecessary charges or ridiculous rates by getting the exact amount that they spent on exact materials and labor. For voice training - (I was in choir throughout my grade school years and I learned a little trick to expand my vocal range and I thought I'd share it with anyone else who needs to change their voice for any reason.) it might feel kind of silly to do but what I would do to hit higher or lower notes - which granted singing is a little bit different than talking but it should still help to change your pitch and expand your range - is I would sing along to either high-pitched vocalists or even instruments. For example singing along to you Pentatonix or literally Lindsey Stirling's violin. Gradually you can hit higher and higher pitches and then using those pictures you can start trying to talk in those higher ranges. And the voice coach or anything but it should help?? I am so happy for you to be finally feeling things and seeing some changes! I know those goal posts seem far off but i hope they will pass quickly and be behind you sooner than you know it! ☺️ Wishing you the best on your journey! 🙏
I haven't checked in for a while but I'm glad your transition is going as well is it is. It sucks about the Gender GP prescription thing but that's navigating the UK trans healthcare for you to be perfectly hones- especially with Brexit. My girlfriend is actually in quite a similar space as you in terms of her transition so watching this and comparing notes with her is really interesting. It's really nice seeing people share their experience her eon RUclips as well,. Good luck to you for the future!
Oh hey! I'm so glad everything's going well so far! Congratulations and keep hanging in there !! We love you! *Also fingers crossed the doctors over here in Canada can give you a hand! Good luck!
I now have another reason to dislike Brexit! Hopefully though you can still get the prescriptions *held thumbs!* Great to hear that things are gradually coming along, even though painful and emotional... Yeah get use to bawling your eyes out at sad moments in shows/movies etc I'm glad to hear it's slowly coming together. Also really hope you get good news back from Canada too so you don't have to wait longer for it. And good look for the nose surgery, I personally don't think you need it as you're beautiful but it's not my decision. You want it done so I hope it turns out great! Much love always Robin! 💜❤️
T shirt bras are a great help for your chest bc that’s just the worst pain (this is coming from someone who’s afab but damn when they sensitive they *hurt*) and it’s always better than when they brush against your shirt material for some reason.
I so happy about these update videos since I rarely can make it to the streams atm. I don't know how you do it but your skin is glowing girl and I'm here for it! As for the nipples, you could try some mama nipple creams/gels. They are for sore nipples while nursing (so fun! .... ) Maybe that helps a little? Also, congrats on feeling all the feelings! Hormones are one hell of a drug when it comes to feelings, it's kinda crazy but in a good way. Anyway, I'm happy you finally making some progress in that department and I'm very curious about the whole nose situation.
I saw a video from Ellbat here on RUclips where her sister did the feminisation in Korea. Don't know the price difference, but they seem to have a shorter waiting process! I love the way you present and talk about your journey! Thank you for sharing it😊 my niece is going through their trans journey and you sharing yours helps me being a better aunt and support in their life! 💛💚🧡💙❤💜
14:24 Oh yeah, we're good compared to Sweden, it's a breeze even. From the moment I first talked to my GP about getting testosterone, it took a little more than 1 month in the public health system for me to get it. I didn't need a diagnosis for that, only a referral to any endocrinologist. Granted, she was 1 hour away from my place, but every pharmacy will fill the prescription. And it took 4 months for me to get an hysterectomy, still in the public health system, still no need for a diagnosis, only a referral from my GP to any gynecologist, and I had it done in my own town 5 minutes from my place. I haven't started the process for top surgery, but I don't expect it to take long either, especially if I go to a private sexologist for a letter of recommendation for the surgery. Even in the public system, I don't think I'd wait more than 6 months. I'm not sure what that letter entails and if by letter they mean a diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Then I just have to ask for a referral to the gender clinic in MTL, meet with them and wait for a date of surgery. Canada does transgender care on an informed consent basis. I'm pretty sure it would be legal for you to get SRS in MTL, how much would it cost, I have no clue. Not 100,000 though. More in the ballpark of 10,000 to 50,000, maybe? 12,000 to 15,000$ would be what it would cost me if I decided to have top surgery in Ontario instead of Quebec (where I live) and the government didn't cover it.
Wow I haven't been back here in a while and I haven't really seen you with like Jack or Mark in a while. But I'm happy for you girl, I hope that your transition is smooth and that you can feel like your perfect self if that makes sense. ❤❤❤
so sorry you have to go through this i cannot even imagine. After adding up the number of months it would take in the timeline you mentioned it came up to be roughly 7 years of this basically waiting game. I cannot imagine how stressful this is but know you have a lot of people on your side and here to always hear your stresses. This video towards the end (after all the seriousness) made me laugh and during all the informational stuff made me realize how hard it is for someone to transition in different countries and that is coming from a cisgendered self identifying American female. i cannot imagine how hard and how discouraging it would be to someone who was transitioning,. Hope everything works out well for you!
As a fellow trans person i find these videos you make so intresting! Especially bc im transmasc so seeing how it works in reverse is cool imo. Its also intresting how difrent countrys have difrent rules. Here in belgium you dont need to be legally the gender your transitioning to or take hormones in order to get bottom surgery. However transmasc bottom surgery takes multiple surgerys... im personally not looking into bottom surgery but i have a friend that got uh, a bottom surgery done (but they are gonna get another one but that one indeed takes several year just bc the waitlist is super long) Im personally only looking into top surgery and the removal of my reproductive system (thats only surgery wise, ive been on hormones for almost 3 years now and dont see myself stopping anytime soon) The hormones also are, waw! Since i started testosterone ive been more asertive, got angery very fast and i simply cant cry anymore. Its rly not great, i be sitting here super sad and just nothing comes out lol. Also lowkey jelous bc testosterones primarly intake is with a shot (most ppl get it in their arm or leg and for some reasen i need to get it in my ass?? idk whadup with that but considering my voice change and being half wherewolf now its safe to asume it works) but i have a fear of needles lol. I know in belgium there is other ways to take testosterone but that would take waaay too much money thats not paid back. And now its just one shot everymonth that costs like 10 euro full price! (paid back is only 2 i believe)
I miss your animation videos. You inspired me to start 3d modelling and hopefully soon I’ll have time to get into animation. For now I’m modelling for a game my friend is making
Fellow MTF here: for anyone confused, it stands for Mobile Task Force.
But srsly good luck on your journey, and congrats so far! It always feels awesome to see more trans people online!
You have no idea how long took me learn MTF in SCP is not male to female...
MTF-Alpha-2B please refrain from commenting on RUclips videos, 682 has broken out again and we need you at your station.
@@SnowTheKitsune i just imagine you sitting there, reading like "at *redacted date*, SCP-317 breached containment. The Male-to-Females were deployed" 😂😂
@@Jesse-ej6jo It took me some time gto get used to SCP meaning!
What’s FTM then?! Fobile Task Morce?
I haven’t been back to the channel in a while, a lot has changed since then and I’m so happy that you’re on your way to becoming more of who you are. I hope you keep well in the ever changing world and find happiness with your body
I think it's really cool to show the cosmetic stuff as "yeah I know it's not inherently related to transition but it makes me feel more comfortable" because dysphoria (idk if these are dysphoria related or not for robin specifically) can happen about weird things that a lot of ppl wouldnt see as mattering to gender but it does to the person.

I’m really enjoying being on this journey despite the trails and tribulations and I’m just so happy to see you going where you want to go. Thank you for sharing and being an amazing role model! ☺️
I loved the “my manliness is too much to be contained!” You’re so positive about your transition and i love this for you hon 🥺
Even though I'm FTM, just watching you and your progress gives me a lot of hope. Glad to see how far you've come
Robin: "So we watched Guardians 2..."
Me: Oh I know exactly where this is going
So, basically you're going through PMS constantly and as a woman I feel that. Welcome to being an emotional hormonal mess lol
I blocked that scene from my memory....I cry every damn time lol
@@Tattooedgaymer Same! Every time I'm like "ok, keep your shit together" but it never works.
I was expecting her to take about Drax's sensitive nipples
@@batnacks hahahaha yeah, that too

So interesting to hear about your progress :) very proud of how you're handling the ups and downs (also your hair-do is looking super cute!)

For voice training - (I was in choir throughout my grade school years and I learned a little trick to expand my vocal range and I thought I'd share it with anyone else who needs to change their voice for any reason.) it might feel kind of silly to do but what I would do to hit higher or lower notes - which granted singing is a little bit different than talking but it should still help to change your pitch and expand your range - is I would sing along to either high-pitched vocalists or even instruments. For example singing along to you Pentatonix or literally Lindsey Stirling's violin. Gradually you can hit higher and higher pitches and then using those pictures you can start trying to talk in those higher ranges. And the voice coach or anything but it should help??
I am so happy for you to be finally feeling things and seeing some changes! I know those goal posts seem far off but i hope they will pass quickly and be behind you sooner than you know it! ☺️
Wishing you the best on your journey! 🙏
Ew, typos. >
This was quite a learning experience for me! Sending best wishes and good vibes for your future!
Your voice is lovely, Robin. If you don't hear a difference, just pop up one of your videos from a few years ago.
Holy crap, you're right! Just looked up a three year old video, and his voice was waaay lower! I haven't even noticed.
This all sounds SO frustrating. I’m sorry Robin. I hope things go quicker for you 💜
I haven't checked in for a while but I'm glad your transition is going as well is it is. It sucks about the Gender GP prescription thing but that's navigating the UK trans healthcare for you to be perfectly hones- especially with Brexit. My girlfriend is actually in quite a similar space as you in terms of her transition so watching this and comparing notes with her is really interesting. It's really nice seeing people share their experience her eon RUclips as well,. Good luck to you for the future!
Every time we get closer to the goal, yes, because it is a path that we are living together thanks to you, I loved the end of the video.
This is where we are now, and WE LOVE YOU ROBIN!
I'm holding my thumbs for you that you'll be able to get those patches. Love the hair btw! ❤
I've been out of the loop but I'm glad youre living your best life , I love your game grumps Rocket ship vid
Wow, I've missed a lot. But,
YOU GOT THIS!
We're all here for you, babe.
Super duper proud of your progress! Much love and support for ya :) you got this shit!
“If you know any woman”
Me, a female: *raises hand*
Seriously, I’m glad you found yourself :) good luck on the transition!
I'm so excited for you!! You're doing great!!
Oh hey! I'm so glad everything's going well so far! Congratulations and keep hanging in there !! We love you!
*Also fingers crossed the doctors over here in Canada can give you a hand! Good luck!
I haven't watched any of your videos recently, but I'm so happy for you!
Omg, this is such a journey! God speed!
I now have another reason to dislike Brexit! Hopefully though you can still get the prescriptions *held thumbs!*
Great to hear that things are gradually coming along, even though painful and emotional... Yeah get use to bawling your eyes out at sad moments in shows/movies etc I'm glad to hear it's slowly coming together.
Also really hope you get good news back from Canada too so you don't have to wait longer for it. And good look for the nose surgery, I personally don't think you need it as you're beautiful but it's not my decision. You want it done so I hope it turns out great!
Much love always Robin! 💜❤️
omfg!! im glad to be back
Great ending! Was that the Famous Finnish Door technique?
Also: Luv ya! So excited to see you get ever closer to girl goals!
T shirt bras are a great help for your chest bc that’s just the worst pain (this is coming from someone who’s afab but damn when they sensitive they *hurt*) and it’s always better than when they brush against your shirt material for some reason.
I get so excited for these updates! ❤😊
Hormones are wild. Once I cried because I was drinking a really good hot chocolate and I was so happy?? Lmao, emotions are weird.
I so happy about these update videos since I rarely can make it to the streams atm. I don't know how you do it but your skin is glowing girl and I'm here for it!
As for the nipples, you could try some mama nipple creams/gels. They are for sore nipples while nursing (so fun! .... ) Maybe that helps a little?
Also, congrats on feeling all the feelings! Hormones are one hell of a drug when it comes to feelings, it's kinda crazy but in a good way.
Anyway, I'm happy you finally making some progress in that department and I'm very curious about the whole nose situation.
Thank you for sharing with us! Sorry about the nausea, that's absolutely no fun.
Love your sense of humor
RUclips literally showed me zero videos leading up to this and I was super surprised when I saw you in my sub box like "Holy shit Pixlpit is alive!?"
I'm just glad things are going well for you! :)
Just be careful, my friend. :) I hope you're having a great January so far.
I saw a video from Ellbat here on RUclips where her sister did the feminisation in Korea. Don't know the price difference, but they seem to have a shorter waiting process!
I love the way you present and talk about your journey! Thank you for sharing it😊 my niece is going through their trans journey and you sharing yours helps me being a better aunt and support in their life! 💛💚🧡💙❤💜
As a transmasc who also recently started his journey I wish you the best of luck!
You are such a gentle and sweet person 😌
14:24 Oh yeah, we're good compared to Sweden, it's a breeze even. From the moment I first talked to my GP about getting testosterone, it took a little more than 1 month in the public health system for me to get it. I didn't need a diagnosis for that, only a referral to any endocrinologist. Granted, she was 1 hour away from my place, but every pharmacy will fill the prescription. And it took 4 months for me to get an hysterectomy, still in the public health system, still no need for a diagnosis, only a referral from my GP to any gynecologist, and I had it done in my own town 5 minutes from my place. I haven't started the process for top surgery, but I don't expect it to take long either, especially if I go to a private sexologist for a letter of recommendation for the surgery. Even in the public system, I don't think I'd wait more than 6 months. I'm not sure what that letter entails and if by letter they mean a diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Then I just have to ask for a referral to the gender clinic in MTL, meet with them and wait for a date of surgery. Canada does transgender care on an informed consent basis.
I'm pretty sure it would be legal for you to get SRS in MTL, how much would it cost, I have no clue. Not 100,000 though. More in the ballpark of 10,000 to 50,000, maybe? 12,000 to 15,000$ would be what it would cost me if I decided to have top surgery in Ontario instead of Quebec (where I live) and the government didn't cover it.
Wow I haven't been back here in a while and I haven't really seen you with like Jack or Mark in a while. But I'm happy for you girl, I hope that your transition is smooth and that you can feel like your perfect self if that makes sense. ❤❤❤
so sorry you have to go through this i cannot even imagine. After adding up the number of months it would take in the timeline you mentioned it came up to be roughly 7 years of this basically waiting game. I cannot imagine how stressful this is but know you have a lot of people on your side and here to always hear your stresses. This video towards the end (after all the seriousness) made me laugh and during all the informational stuff made me realize how hard it is for someone to transition in different countries and that is coming from a cisgendered self identifying American female. i cannot imagine how hard and how discouraging it would be to someone who was transitioning,. Hope everything works out well for you!
As a fellow trans person i find these videos you make so intresting! Especially bc im transmasc so seeing how it works in reverse is cool imo.
Its also intresting how difrent countrys have difrent rules. Here in belgium you dont need to be legally the gender your transitioning to or take hormones in order to get bottom surgery. However transmasc bottom surgery takes multiple surgerys... im personally not looking into bottom surgery but i have a friend that got uh, a bottom surgery done (but they are gonna get another one but that one indeed takes several year just bc the waitlist is super long)
Im personally only looking into top surgery and the removal of my reproductive system (thats only surgery wise, ive been on hormones for almost 3 years now and dont see myself stopping anytime soon)
The hormones also are, waw!
Since i started testosterone ive been more asertive, got angery very fast and i simply cant cry anymore. Its rly not great, i be sitting here super sad and just nothing comes out lol.
Also lowkey jelous bc testosterones primarly intake is with a shot (most ppl get it in their arm or leg and for some reasen i need to get it in my ass?? idk whadup with that but considering my voice change and being half wherewolf now its safe to asume it works) but i have a fear of needles lol. I know in belgium there is other ways to take testosterone but that would take waaay too much money thats not paid back. And now its just one shot everymonth that costs like 10 euro full price! (paid back is only 2 i believe)
I miss your animation videos. You inspired me to start 3d modelling and hopefully soon I’ll have time to get into animation. For now I’m modelling for a game my friend is making
Is that a honeydukes mug 👀👀 I'm so here for that
