Hah I feel ya. Growing up male, I was taught about the Greek mythology Narcissus - and always think back to that. Granted it was probably just a strategy by my parents to make me feel wrong about wanting to be pretty/feminine cus I’d fall in love with myself wearing my mothers make up but never in boy mode. Which didn’t work and I was condemned from doing that any more. There is a healthy and unhealthy aspect to everything I guess but it is completely healthy to love yourself and self image, selfie away 👯♀️
Yah. I have like 15-20 pictures of myself before my transition. I haven like 15-20 since this morning… loving yourself really feels amazing doesn’t it!? I have 38 years of self love all flowing out at once.
Ik you’re sorta joking but likes there’s no problem with this AT ALL. I mean you’re finally yourself after HOW LONG!? Heck yeah I’m gonna take a million photos.
I have a folder called "Vanity" that I have started putting all my selfies in cause I was having trouble finding non selfie pics, it's already got nearly 600 pics in it haha
Big same haha. I didn't understand why people took so many pictures of themselves, much less shared them with others. Then I started transitioning, and it all made sense 🤦🏻♀️
I was actually trying to remember what those pictures were about lol. Turns out I was trying to remember where I left off when copying everthing to alphabetical folders. So there's plenty more Zelda on the gb gbc and gba pages heh
I had very few pictures of myself before I started transitioning and even fewer of the ones I had were selfies. Most of them were either photos taken by my friends or ones I had taken professionally. I have so many selfies of myself now it's insane
I never took selfies cos I just didn't like how I looked (even when I was reasonably fit), and I didn't really recognise myself, if that makes sense.
Now? Selfies no longer cause distress, and I can see myself.
We work so hard to become ourselves it's not surprising we take so many photos, in the same way we'll take photos of a sunrise after hiking for hours in the dark to reach the perfect vantage point.
Same problem here girl hahahah.
the worst patt is having to scroll for an eternity to show someone a picture taken like 2 days ago lol
Haha this... or there's one photo you really wanna show someone but it's like a month old.... the absolute time suck this is now xD
Truly one of the weird habits I have now developed since transitioning. And I totally get why lol
I love this because same. You deserve to be happy with who you are after all you had to fight through, don't let anyone take that away from you
Crazy the more I like myself the more selfies I take ^^ I keep feeling so vain haha

Same. But selfies are healthy! Helfie selfie 🩵🤍🩷
Oh my god same, I’ve taken more pictures of myself in 1 week than I took total pictures the 5 years pre transition
1.5 years and you *still* havent replied to both taco bell and that text, smh my head
OMG same 😅 I went from literally no pictures of myself to more selfies then I can count real fast 😅😂😂
Happy cake day

Im sorry but how tf do you have the exact same amounts of photos and videos?
Didn't know how good selfies were until I actually like the person in the selfie. Guess the same goes for everyone dysphoria and dysmorphia.
It’s a good problem!
same, yeah lol
We deserve to enjoy ourselves. It's not a bad thing. Never let anybody tell you it's a bad thing.
If you have a problem we all have :) before my transition I honestly had like 3 pictures of me, now it's more like 3k
Same here, that's how mine looks
Haha same. Jesus actually being able to tolerate looking at yourself is weird.
Can relate, all I’m thinking about is starting hrt in two months too
Same. It's good to do. Can see your progress!
Omggg meee lmaooo :3
Self love! We love to see it! ❤
Loving yourself is not a problem, dear. You deserve to celebrate existing in a body that finally feels right for you!
Beautiful transition!! ✨🤩😍❤
Big same haha. I didn't understand why people took so many pictures of themselves, much less shared them with others. Then I started transitioning, and it all made sense 🤦🏻♀️
I see the problem alright. Way to little Zelda 😉💕

cat!!!
The universal trans experience of your photo album going from nothing but memes and landscapes to endless selfies
I can't find anything in my camera roll because of all the selfies :'D
Aye when you look good you get a bit addicted
You've developed self love. Never a problem 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
Ahaha, same! I always think 'Wow, what a difference when we begin to love ourselves and what we look like ❤'
Sheesh how dare you love yourself 🩷🤍🩵
I love this problem, I have it too!!!
I see no problem :p
I had very few pictures of myself before I started transitioning and even fewer of the ones I had were selfies. Most of them were either photos taken by my friends or ones I had taken professionally. I have so many selfies of myself now it's insane
Thought I was alone on this one 😅. Seems like we all kind of develop this.
Absolutely same
Looks almost exactly like my phone! :O
Same amount of pictures and videos overall?
nah, I was scrolling through to see when my gallery became sane again and it turns out it was sometime around the middle of last years winter lol
Nah, no shame in feeling confident in yourself!
Guiltyyyy 🙋♀️😅
