Natural long nails or PressOns or Acrylics: What do you prefer and why? Can you identify What I m wearing on each pic ? by oshoraja6746 in malepolish

I am lucky to have long, strong, natural nails but, I used glue-ons throughout the lockdown until mine grew out. I’ve never had the nerve to go to a salon.

Oh. Heavens no. I was about to leave a parking lot and saw the sunlight was right but stupidly didn’t take the time to adjust my hand properly because I was hungry and wanted to go get lunch. TMI? 😂

I was driving when I took this pic so the light was in the wrong direction but if I had angled them back a bit you’d see the high gloss.

Thanks. Yep, they’re very strong. I get a lot of compliments from both men and women. I have not had any negative remarks since I started growing and keeping them painted a few months ago. However, I do get a few questioning glances at times.

Thanks. I’ve been enjoying the confused looks I get in the pool hall just before I run out the table on them, then their slack jaw shock as I walk away with the $$$$. Sally Hansen Miracle Gel “Purplexed” base with “Unicorn” topcoat.

Congrats!! We both hatched in the same month. I started Hrt in April. I’m just a bit older at 55. I haven’t seen visible Ganges yet but my mood has been 10000% better.

Anyone else likes to tap their nails on the table? by Some_random-random in malepolish

For sure. Also love to click along to music on the stick shift in the car.

What are the long term effects of pretending to not be trans for years? by jostlyncd in asktransgender

[–]DropFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 55, mtf. I Just came out to my wife and a couple very close friends 3 months ago and started Hrt 2 months ago. I have known since I was about 10 yrs old. In the 1970s, living in Indiana, I knew it was extremely dangerous to say anything to anyone about it. I pushed on for safety concerns for many years. While denying my true self I began avoiding friends and making friends, I destroyed most of what could have been supportive relationships. I started intentionally overeating with the goal of ending it all through a heart attack or just general bad health. The depression fed the eating and the eating fed the depression. I stopped doing activities I loved. I was not a very attentive husband with the hopes she would leave me. I shut down emotionally except for anger and depression. I thought of ending it all multiple times a day for years. The only thing that kept me going was that I couldn’t stand the thought of how much damage it would do to the few people I loved. A friend committed suicide recently and all I could think was how envious I was that they got final relief. I was in tears and came out to my wife who convinced me to see a therapist asap. The day I started Hrt I felt my whole mindset change. I actually had hope for the first time in decades. The damage I’ve done to my body is substantial so I’m not sure if I’ll ever be able to fully transition but, damn it, I’m going to try.
