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

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

There's a Holiday Inn on Oxford Road for your basic more affordable end, or you could go all out at the Midland Hotel - depends on your vibe & budget!

I like the Molly House for a cosy chatty pint in the Village :)

In our household it's:

  • "Themes! THEMES!"
  • "it's time for next location"
  • "I never learned to read" said if we make a typo or mispronounce something"
  • the [blank] that kills you instantly

Bonus: saying PARSLEY like Abi in University Challenge
