or semaphore!! rp across entire islands :33

edit: for those unaware, its basically waving little flags or just your arms to communicate over long distances

in order from what we most enjoy to least enjoy genetically, body-wise:

• legs develop muscle like it’s nothing, and fat goes there too with ease
• very big, uh, rear end
• quick breast development
  • didn’t start HRT super long ago, but breast development was noticed like literally two weeks after starting
  • family has VERY large breasts, to the point size reduction surgery was needed to relieve back pain for an aunt
  • also a bra is a must for us. bike rides without them are uh interesting to say the least (currently C cup size per a chart, more so B in reality)
• femme looking face/eyelashes/jawline
  • we passed before starting HRT, but still helpful!!
• long legs compared to torso
  • women’s tops still fit us well despite our height, plus sexyyy
  • thigh highs are hard though
• voice wasn’t super deep, not exactly high pitch albeit certainly above average
  • has been very helpful in achieving a passing voice
• pretty tall stature
• body metabolizes nutrients insanely quickly
  • estradiol has helped a little, but not too much
  • has led to very low body weight (this can be bad!!!)
• fairly large feet
• SO much body hair to contend with
  • hormone therapy has helped a crazy amount, making hairs whiter, thinner, and grow slower thankfully
• on HRT, our body can BARELY regulate temperature
  • our sister actually has to take a medication for this.
• skin was eating itself alive, estradiol solved that though

not pizza, but we did receive cake!!! very yummy carrot cake no less :33

yayyyy!! estradiol is truly changed my living also

being a girl is total peak and wonderful and solved problems my head too I LOVE BEING A GIRL uwaaa

thank you for coming by my ted talk

i wish you idyllicyyyy

yay!!! i felt the dissociation too, don’t think too much of it <3

aww thnxxx!! you make me smile

from this angle yeah!!

really the only thing i was thinking when looking at your photos was “oh my god she looks so pretty in that shirt i have to ask”, so…

where did you find that shirt?

i got my forename from a not super interesting book i forgot the title of a while ago. i decided on my surname with my family (long story), ultimately took it from a modern-era historical figure known for her work with data processing. i also technically have a middle name suggested by my mother that i just put on my legal name/sex change paperwork because why not!! :)

“phantom pleasure” sounds like a really smutty multiplayer fps from the mid to late 2000s that i would definitely accumulate several hundreds or thousands of hours in

jokes aside though that sounds like an AWESOME plot

as the one on the right, even though i tower over even most of the guys i encounter i still really REALLY wanna get some of those absurd height raising shoes.

i’d say the primary drawback of being so tall is that if you wanna hold someone, unless they’re also super tall you have to kneel/squat down SO much. the long arms more than make up for it though hehe

on that note, while this is kinda a side tangent, if you dear reader wanna be able to hold someone too, my five cents is to work on your core strength!! while you are technically picking the person up, do remember that they are also climbing you like a tree to an extent, and you need to keep yourself sturdy. walking around with the additional weight of another person is also quite tricky, so i encourage you to get a mat(tress), have someone you like come over, and have fun together :3c

i did a little searching around for any studies/research that covered this much at all. i found little, and other people who have wondered this in the past also seemed to find little.

i mean, if that one group of people was able to do a trial for breast jiggle frequency, then a study is absolutely in order ^w^

oh lovely 4chan

i suppose “femby” works to an extent too :)

that technique (and analogy) sounds super intriguing! i want to know more, but i wasn’t able to find what you were talking about on the internet sadly. are there any articles/books/etc. you’d recommend?

i’m a machinist, and “turning” is something you do on a lathe, specifically using a cutting tool to make something skinnier, usually either metal (for me) or wood.

now, while it may not be the original intention, i think the metaphor of turning a girl/femoid on a lathe to form their new body actually works super well!!

“estrogen turns the body and the girl feminine as though an expert woodworker turns features in a seemingly unremarkable block of wood”

i do not know why i’ve been so flamboyant with my words as of late :))

my ass was just becoming way too big to fit “normal” male standards tbh

both are yummy!!

this video rules

i’m definitely not the first to share, but its always fun to watch

hell yeah!! i hope your friends treat you with the love and kindness you deserve :D

all the family (mother and sister) in my household are other girls/women (eccentric, lesbian women no less), and given our similar proportions we share/borrow much clothes with eachother. we used to live somewhere super north so we have a lot of baggier and skin-covering clothes, especially hoodies, as well as a lot of stockings and arm warmers (that “similar fabric to cover the hands/arms”) for obvious reasons. i did of course experiment a lot with these!

personally i also began dressing by just seeing what other people around me wore, then tried to suit that to my own preferences. it definitely does take a little experience though, but of course there’s only one way to get that, so don’t be afraid to experiment :) (even if it’s just in the confines of your or your friend’s home).

currently the trend in my city is sweats and hoodies, but when i started out jeans were especially fashionable, so i tried those out, per the suggestion of a friend (note: friends are great for this!).

uh as for tops, again i have borrowed many a coat/dress/sweater from my family. still though, i found there were absolutely styles that are better than others for me. early on i discovered the fun that colorful clothing can be, and i haven’t really stopped since! graphic tees are awesome too. starting out, sweaters were mostly my favorite, but there were a few that really emphasized my wide shoulders, which i personally hated.

aside from that, it took me a while to feel confident going out with makeup. my mother is a jeweler though, so i have a lot of bracelets and other fun stuff like that!

clothing is so so fun, so do experiment as much as you can! this is just scratching the surface of what i wear

On the one hand, I feel it is my civic duty to get thigh-highs and that similar fabric to cover the the hands/arms, with a mini skirt and short top, taking a picture of my libreboot thinkpad with neofetch running. 😅

OH MY GOD i feel called THE HELL out… x3

if you do this though i think !unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone would love it
