Introduction (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Hi all. I thought I might try and get the ball rolling with an introduction

I'm Ada, and whilst I'm not a moderator in this community, I am an admin for lemmy.blahaj.zone, which where this group is hosted.

I'm rapidly closing in on 50 years of age, though I'm not quite there yet. I transitioned in 2017 when I was 41. I've got a non binary kiddo who has just officially reached adulthood themselves, which makes me feel really old.

My partner is @supakaity@lemmy.blahaj.zone/@supakaity@blahaj.zone, who, believe it or not, I met via reddit (may it rest in peace)

Photo description: A selfie of Ada and Kaity, two white women in their 40s, sitting on a couch. They are both looking in to the camera, but their heads are leaning to touch each other, and both are smiling. Kaity is wearing a sparkly purple dress, and Ada is wearing a matching dress in blue/green

So lovely to meet you Ada! Also, what is it about transitioning and hormones that makes people look at least 10 years younger?

I think that was makeup more than transitioning in my case :)
