Fashion designer Saisha Shinde, formerly known as Swapnil Shinde, recently took to Instagram to talk about how she has regained her confidence after coming out as a transgender woman.
On January 5, after completing the one-year anniversary of his announcement, he shared a few pictures from the time he was known as Swapnil. In the collage she added some new pictures in the swimming pool. The post read: “Swapnil was always conscious of his body…he hated that it wasn’t manly enough (though it was all in his mind). He always went to the pool wearing T-shirts. The body-glued T-shirt was extremely uncomfortable as it showed a bit of his feminine body and so he would only stay in the pool with his head out!”
He described how “the idea of a pool party or anything pool-related was scary”. He reasoned: “Because not every owner of the pool allows people in wearing shirts! Swapnil missed many wonderful times till December 30, 2021. ,
Today, she said, the sentiment is completely different. “Recently, I entered the pool… my first as Sayesha! My body is traditionally considered ‘in shape,’ but that didn’t matter. I’m very comfortable wearing just a bra and denim shorts THIS! Everything is on display! I didn’t feel the slightest insecurities or restlessness. On the contrary, I was much more confident than Swapnil!” he shared.
He also shared an official government document of his name change.
“Today is the first anniversary of my public appearance as a transgender woman and I want to thank everyone! But beyond everyone else, I want to thank myself for being brave enough to live out my truth, even if it is at a later stage in my life! Thank you for my bravery and Amar (soul) for leading a meaningful life. I finally get to breathe happily… and I am enjoying every moment of this freedom. A freedom that I am privileged enough to have. Happy birthday to me,” she commented.
Furthermore, in another post, she wrote: “Throughout school and college, while the boys on the outside harassed me because I was different, the inner pain was far worse. I felt suffocated in a reality I knew was that she was not mine, yet societal expectations and norms i had to stage everyday ).
“I spent the next few years believing that I was attracted to men because I was gay, but it was only 6 years ago that I finally accepted myself, and today I accept you. I am not a gay man.” . I am a transwoman,” she concluded.
