Did your hobbies/ interests change while transitioning?

[u/SubparSaiyan]

We talk a lot about sexualities "changing" (or realizing it's not what they originally thought) awhile after starting hormones. I'm curious if you've noticed yourself lose interest in certain hobbies and activities while gaining that interest in others, and how long into your specified transition you started to noticed this shift.

for me i would say my hobbies changed, or are changing, but tbh my egg fully cracked only like a week ago sooo i'm still early in it.

but a lot of my hobbies were to fit the fake persona i made up to fit in with the cishet boys. i dropped hobbies and am making new ones because i dont have to pretend to like the same things other men did so i fit in at work, at the bar, etc.

hobbies i had that felt more, me, i have kept. but they were usually done in private and are more open now
