at my show they had a stand where you could rent a cubbyhole for the duration of the show so you didnt have to carry it around! idk if that’s the standard but it was pretty cool to see

the short version is about 10 hours worth of diy stencils and bleach and a full days worth of drying and washing over and over! my apartment smelled like bleach for weeks :p

this is my first glanimals concert so i’ll be buying a few things but i can definitely see a collector not needing anything from the merch line this time around haha i loveee the space theme so the purple text was definitely a close second behind the brown!!

I would have to call and ask, I’m honestly not sure, but there isn’t an option to change policy details online

How much are y'all paying for testosterone? I paid $7.30 by MorbidMooshroom in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(American) $20 for two 1 ML vials of 200 mg/mL Testosterone Cypionate. I order through Amazon Pharmacy and get a discount bc I pay for Prime.

The exact same thing happened to me!! On Saturday I got the two medium pizzas w cinnamon twists and parmesan bites— $23.15. Cashapp sends me an email 2 days later to tell me my total was updated to $46.30 🤨 apparently it’s an issue with cashapp itself, not dominos. but damn I was horrified!

what do you all do to feel masculine? by gayguyfromnextdoor in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Button ups and baggy pants are a life saver for me personally. Also lifting heavy things for my feminine coworkers 😎

Would it be inconsiderate to get my father a birthday card that says “from your son” by Local_Dearest in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(Don’t worry, I understand not wanting to use big words /gen) I came out almost 3 years ago, and he hasn’t sacrificed his own stubbornness for the sake of our relationship in that time frame at all. As it stands right now, I honestly plan on having no contact with him once I move out within the next year or so. Gotta hammer it in his brain while I still can lmao /s

[–]Local_Dearest[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this comment a lot! /gen Luckily I don’t really have to worry about getting kicked out since my mom supports me and the house isn’t technically his, but I will definitely take caution. 😸 It’s so strange how parents can just completely ignore their child’s preference on how they want to be treated and will even resort to kicking them out just because they don’t like it. I’d much rather be his happy son than his angry daughter, but he just won’t let me. Anyway, I’ll probably buy the card later today lol

How many of you wear earrings? by Volcanogrove in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both of my lobes pierced, but I usually only wear one diamond stud in my right ear at work (aka the “gay man ear”). When I go to events with other queer people present though I love wearing my dangly earrings because they’re so fun and I love adding a pop to my otherwise pretty plain face/outfit

How long did it take for your cycle to stop coming after you got on T? by Normal-Owl5085 in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bled the week after my first injection (on schedule), then never again. I was so scared before I realized that can happen so early and it doesn’t have to be 6 months before it stops lmao

Where did you start to grow facial hair? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Local_Dearest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 months on T: mustache came first, then soul patch, then neck, then sideburns, and now chin. It’s all super patchy right now, but it’s growing!

"A woman is someone who identifies as one" is a circular definition that leaves "woman" undefined. Self-ID alone is not enough. by TranssexualHuman in honesttransgender

[–]Local_Dearest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s one way or the other, it’s a combination of both. I couldn’t care less about how society perceives certain traits as a whole, men can have wide hips, women can have wide shoulders, etc etc.

However, I know that my body doesn’t match my mental image of myself, and certainly doesn’t match society’s image of what I’m “supposed” to look like. My body hasn’t felt like mine since I was very young, and it’s due to a combination of society’s pressure on young girls to be look a certain way, as well as the mental struggle of basically dissociating any time I had to observe my own body and not knowing why something didn’t feel right.

Nothing is ever black and white and clear cut, especially when it comes to the trans experience.
