>Hamas used to be a complete chud when she was younger. She was raised in a conservative household and internalized a lot of homophobia, transphobia, and hateful rhetoric. This led her to heavily repress her strong desires to transition as a woman due to her dysphoria, which she held secret. She delved further into conservative ideology and used anti-trans rhetoric against herself and the people around her to convince herself to continue to repress (though she didn't know this was the reason at the time). She spent years in this constant mental battle with herself, and it drove everyone around her away. Depression, frustration, and bitterness were visible on her face. Once she moved away from her family, she felt she had escaped the stress and pressure of being in such an oppressive, conservative environment. She finally had the privacy she had been deprived of her whole life by her parents. She started dressing a little differently, and her mannerisms changed subtly. She felt free. She felt a lot less guilt about indulging in more feminine pursuits now that she was away from the prying eyes of her parents. the feminine things she had always yearned to do but never felt she could do due to her environment and the conditioning that came with it. She went to a therapist and talked about everything. Vocalizing what had been kept secret in her mind for almost her whole life was the hardest thing she ever did. She was finally acknowledging and taking steps to fix the problem that had been hanging over her like a dark cloud for as long as she remembered. To finally get the validation and care she needed was incredibly comforting. She knew she wanted to transition and started HRT months later. It hasn't been smooth sailing since, though her family, upon hearing of their son's plans, completely rejected them. She knew they wouldn't accept it and thought she had prepared for their reaction, but it still hit her like a punch in the face. It was so sad to her that her own parents love was so shallow that they couldn't accept her as a trans woman. Fortunately, she had forged friendships in college and online with people who weren't bigoted like her family unfortunately were. They supported her throughout all the trials and tribulations she faced early in her transition.

>Years later, she is completely unrecognizable from her high school days. Both in personality and appearance. She's beaming with confidence, free of all the insecurity and hate she had. No longer held down by the expectations of her family, she is like a butterfly coming out of a chrysalis, spreading her vibrant wings proudly.

>Of course she didn't just glow up like this from HRT alone! She had had a boob job, a nose job, BBL, and facial feminization surgery. All paid for by her Russian gas baron boyfriend of 4 years, Ivan, who loves to spoil her!
