Well, you would be facing the other direction. 🤔

I don’t reconcile it. I misspoke (edited).

I’d rather just live under a more matriarchal society. I believe such a society would eventually balance out to equality, but as it stands now, here in the US in 2026, we’re cooked.

Why don’t you go look that definition up, then correlate it with today’s society and WHY feminism is needed more than ever.

Even long before my transition, I’ve been a feminist and but wholly believe in a matriarchal society. So, nope! Not in a million years. Fuck off with this male-dominated ego bullshit.

… Edited for clarity!

Forcing GAHT on one person would be adjacent to depriving another of the same thing. Don’t become them.

I was always concerned about restriction and urination, so thank you for replying. I’m loving the idea of getting something basic and adjustable, then moving to a better one when I find a comfortable fit. I wasn’t sure how long you can wear them, then you tell me days and weeks? I’m now actively shopping for one.

Well, now you’ve piqued my curiosity. Show me a good starter model for someone new to cages (I’ve always wanted to try one). I’m sure my wife would love seeing me restrained.

Thank you for sharing this. It’s exactly how I have always felt.

As mentioned by others, an orange-peach color corrector will cancel out most blues and greens coming through due to hair follicles. It’s gonna make your skin look very orange, but then you’ll cover that with a foundation close to your skin tone. Then take a blending brush and blend blend blend, working back and forth, even circling in some spots to evenly distribute. Start with small applications or it won’t look natural. I currently use LA Girl HD Pro Conceal (orange corrector), where my foundation is L’Oreal True Match (W2).

For makeup application, I highly recommend looking at Alexandra Anele on YouTube. Her videos aren’t exactly aimed at trans women, but I find her skill and technique very straightforward and classy and not too over the top. She also has a very sweet personality and is fun to watch, especially since she explains what she’s doing and what she’s using. I recommend her because I think all trans girls should look this good, not the whole alt/goth/prostitute “I missed my second puberty” slap dash.

Ooh, I do love me some Neue Haas Grotesk, but your handwriting is beautiful! And the lowercase a’s? The slash through your 7’s? Dotted quadrille paper? Be still, my heart.

Just gonna throw this out here: if you’re taking voice training, you might want to switch to edibles. Smoking takes a heavy toll on your airways and does more harm than good. I miss it, but not as much as I love being a woman.

Respectfully, as an older trans woman, I’ve always felt that it’s the style of clothes you wear and the subtle demure and grace you carry that makes you presentable as a woman. You won’t just look the part, you will feel it. The looks you will get are of admiration and envy. They’ll see you how a mortal sees a goddess. It’s very powerful.

But if you’re looking like you just stepped out of Hot Topic or the Harajuku district, plastered with makeup like a clown, you’re gonna get forced acceptance, straight into the hugbox. Yeah, you’re really cute and I want to snuggle with you, but I believe that this is one of the main stigmas that trans women are known for, hence my refusal to dress like that. I do have some fun pieces in that wheelhouse, but they’re for parties or events, not everyday wear. Maybe hit up Macy’s or Kohl’s for starters and let it organically evolve from there.

What I’m saying is, just be careful how you present yourself. First impressions count.

I’m a transgender woman in NY. Honestly, with all the support systems in place, I couldn’t think of a better place to live. Insurance covers gender-affirming care and all of my doctors are simply amazing. I count my blessings daily.

This image slowly revealed itself like I was on 9600 baud. What the fuck?

And now what I can see it… meeeeoow!

Self-medicated with cannabis. Once I got on E, I didn’t need it anymore.

CDPHP in NY. I am already getting HRT and speech therapy under this insurance, and my future orchiectomy is covered under my insurance as gender-affirming care, as long as my state is willing to fight for me. I think the only bill I’m gonna get stuck with is laser hair removal. I can live with that!

Oh wait, you meant bills as in laws… I’m an idiot. Carry on!
