Hi Franchesca,
When I decided to go the route of synthetic HRT, I also went a little crazy and got a nice tattoo, but not specifically to mark the occasion. It was more to mark my liberation. I have been thinking about what to do about these milestones, but I think there are only a few dates that are really important. For me they are:
The day you made the choice.
The day you come out to your immediate family.
The day you come out at work.
The day you start synthetic HRT.
The day you change your name.
The day you get a target gender passport/ID.
and if/where applicable the day you have GRS and are reborn.
Some have been low key affairs that I have shared here, or with friends or both. Some I just Journal about. Others will be parties or celebrations.
