I can't say I don't mind aging, I still feel like my entire youth was stolen from me and I didn't really live before 34 and I enjoy living way too much to be happy that by the time I could live it was already the autumn of life.
but it's a relief to see the signs of age be fem. the cellulite, the estrogen sunspots, the leathery texture of my hands, all look like exactly my mother and grandmother.
lots of trans people of my trans-generation (late 2010s) felt motivated to transition by the "gender change" option in Faceapp. myself, what motivated me was the "age" option. I looked at that old, wizened green-eyed patriarch, and I realised that either I stopped testosterone right now, or it would keep masculinising my body for the rest of my life. heck I was starting to get ear hair.
the feminisation I got, while insatisfactory in a number of regards esp. my face, was still odles better than I ever dared hope. and my initial concern is completely fulfilled; M-shaped hair loss and all, the way I'm aging does not at all converge to the Faceapp academic professor grampa, it converges to my biker gangster mom.
