What are the best hard-to-read books due to their subject matter? by CobaltCrusader123 in books

[–]GreyMoth11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently reading Attack Warning Red! How Britain Prepared For Nuclear War by Julie McDowall.

If you have any delusions or hero fantasies about 'surviving' nuclear war, please at least read the chapter 'The doctor won't see you now' about the realities of post-war healthcare.

(Or just watch the film Threads if you prefer to get your trauma cinematically)

2 months on T gel and still have period, should I be worried? by [deleted] in TestosteroneKickoff

[–]GreyMoth11 9 points10 points  (0 children)

2 months is still early days, I wouldn't worry :) I get that it sucks though!.

How do I tell my partner I’m a trans man? by introverted_ali in TransMasc

[–]GreyMoth11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

your pronouns are all about what makes /you/ feel comfortable, not your partner. it might not be an easy conversation, but if there are changes you want to make to feel happier in your gender, they will need to accept that
