Yeah, definitely normal. I played with a lot of traditionally femme things at the start of my transition, cause I didn’t know what I liked and had been denied the exploration my cis peers had in adolescence. I don’t wear makeup much anymore for the same reasons. Things can be affirming at first and then you grow out of them and it doesn’t have to mean anything, other than you’re growing. Same thing with bras; they used to be real affirming to wear, and the sensory feeling of having something on my chest was a relief. But I’m 7 years in and a bra is something I take off immediately when I get home because it’s annoying.

Look around at the habits of women in their 30s and 40s and you’ll see a lot of us have let go of many of the femme high effort stuff fall away. Some of it is still fun on occasion but the daily effort is just not worth it

I have only heard bad things about Dr Schechter when I was doing my research for my GRS years ago, as that was the closest doc to where I lived. I’d heard that his results were not great, and that he was very disrespectful, especially when his patients needed revision due to shoddy work. Those reviews are why I ended up going out of state for mine. I don’t know anything about the other doc. Good luck.
