Dylan Mulvaney just celebrated ‘day 500 of being a girl’ with a TikTok video and decided to provide an update with followers. She stated that she’d recently toned back her work since putting out the content she intended to generate meant she’d have to ‘expose myself to a lot more trauma’. In spite of that, since it had been 500 days since she had come out as a woman, she wanted to talk to her followers and let them know what she had learnt. Mulvaney stated that on day 387, she learnt to be less trusting, characterizing herself as “the most trusting and giving person” who had “definitely changed.” Now she understands that “It is important to earn trust rather than give it away.”

Day 402 taught her the importance of restricting comments on Instagram to followers exclusively and informed her supporters that if they read unpleasant remarks, it was because they had elected to follow her. Mulvaney said she ‘discovered who my genuine loved ones are’ on day 408 and thanked the transgender community for stepping through for her in the last few months. The influencer also stated that she had realized that striving to be ‘beautiful’ and ‘silent’ wasn’t the direction she wanted to go, preferring to use her voice and set a precedent for everyone.

Although Mulvaney is happy, she isn’t doing what she truly loves, so it’s a bit bittersweet. Mulvaney began transitioning from male to female in December 2022, went on to detail what she’s learnt since day 365, such as when she found that “trust is a virtue that should be earned” on day 387. More than 603,000 people have watched Mulvaney’s Instagram post since it went live less than 24 hours ago, and nearly 4 million have watched it on TikTok.
