Help Jordyn raise funds for his gender affirming top surgery
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
My name is Jordyn, and I’m a 20-year-old transgender man. My journey has been long and full of self-discovery, challenges, and incredible moments of support from those who have stood by me. Today, I’m reaching out because I need help taking the next step in my transition—top surgery.
Growing up, I was always a tomboy. I felt most like myself running around in my older brother’s hand-me-down clothes, climbing trees, playing in the dirt, and avoiding anything that felt too “girly.” But even then, something always felt… off. I came out as bisexual when I was 11, and by the time I turned 18, I realized there was something deeper I needed to face. The gender dysphoria I had felt for years finally had a name, and I started wearing binders to ease the discomfort. A few months later, I came out as transgender.
Since then, I’ve been transitioning both socially and medically. I have been on hormone therapy for a year and nine months, and while it has brought me closer to feeling at home in my body, one thing still causes me extreme distress—my chest. I experience severe gender dysphoria because of it. Every single day, I use tape to flatten my chest, a painful and exhausting process that I rely on just to feel like myself when I look in the mirror. I cannot express how much of a difference top surgery would make in my life. It’s not just about how I look—it’s about how I exist in the world.
This surgery would allow me to live more freely and comfortably without the constant weight of dysphoria. It would mean no more painful taping, no more anxiety over how I’m perceived, and finally, the chance to move through the world as the man I know I am.
I know times are tough for many, and asking for help is never easy. But if you’re able to donate, even the smallest amount, it would mean the world to me. And if you’re not in a position to give, simply sharing my story would be an incredible way to support me on this journey.
Thank you to everyone who has already shown me love and support—I wouldn’t be where I am today without you. With your help, I can take this next step and finally feel at home in my own body.
Much love,
Jordyn ❤️
