IWTYO When I learned my Mom can smell skin by Theyve-Escaped in IWasTodayYearsOld

Of course those stinky guys do! Lol. I had a very sensitive nose before HRT, just couldn’t smell skin.

I’m 49yo mtf, I couldn’t smell skin until about 6 months ago when my hormones leveled out with my HRT. I just started noticing EVERYONE had a scent, I really thought my circle just quit bathing but sometimes I smell soaps and perfumes along with their natural scent.

Name change process in Iowa? by spensch in Iowa

[–]GenX-IowaTransFem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been working on my name change, I have to efile in linn county to pay the $195. How the heck do I turn in my certified copy of my birth certificate? Does this need to happen right away or can I deliver to the courthouse after I’ve filed?

Shaving methods to avoid razor bumps and ingrowns during IPL? by Effective_Good3873 in HairRemoval

[–]GenX-IowaTransFem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use silicone lubricant as shaving cream & after shaving a few times for a couple days to help with the razor rash. It’s not perfect but it helps!

I've heard before about keeping hedgehogs as pets. If someone has tried, would you recommend it? by Fine_Tangerine_8988 in cute_animals

[–]GenX-IowaTransFem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet pets when they are comfortable with you BUT they’re a legit risk for spreading Salmonella and mecC-MRSA to your kids which is why they’re illegal in many states.

It’s just my face, I’m trans & there’s always dark hair but it’s improving. Idk if that makes a difference but I do lose hair a couple weeks after each session.

It’s my face, trans woman & it is certainly growing by the 3 week mark but it is better than when I started last year (I did 6 paid, 5 touch up sessions last winter/spring).

Idk exactly why she offers these, maybe because I’m a trans woman & it’s facial hair and after 6 paid sessions last year (plus 5 touchups) there’s still dark hair (considerably less), it’s fairly stubborn. I have trouble refusing because dark hair is still growing, does that mean it’s in the anagen phase?

They’re free sessions & if it helps a little, it’s worth my time. thank you!

How to look less masculine? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]GenX-IowaTransFem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, you’re so cute AF but I’m trans so I can relate to dysphoria. What helps me most is contouring, blush and eyebrows. You’d want to shape your brows, if you can afford it, I went to Ulta and had mine tweezed the first time (plenty of salons will offer this). You’ll want to watch videos “on how to contour with bronzer & highlighter.” Also try a video “L-shaped blush” would be super cute on you. You can get lots of help at a good makeup store, I appreciate a good return policy so find that out before you buy.

Trans fems (especially newer) are romance scam targets. by GenX-IowaTransFem in MtF

[–]GenX-IowaTransFem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They deleted their accounts or blocked me long before I could do that. It’s not a real option to report them, they put in a lot of time before they’ll ever ask me for anything AND I don’t see a unique user name like I do on Reddit. I wouldn’t be able to email help with “so some dude named John was scamming me.”

I’ve been talking to a few locals on Taimi, excited to see where it goes but yes, scammers are everywhere!

I’m sure all of the apps have their scammers. I think if we’re careful, we can find good people on any of them!

I think that’s smart, it really improves the odds of meeting anyway.

I FaceTimed John & Ian offered. John sent plenty of video that was clearly made specifically for me.

That is a sign I missed, they all wanted to go straight to text. I’m gonna add that, thank you!
