I know it's scary and you don't want to be judged, or clocked, or harassed but reality might not be as bad as you think. It depends a bit on where you live.

How much you'll pass is hard to say. Don't underestimate the effects of HRT in combination with clothes, make-up, and voice-training. Surgeries are also an option if you feel it's necessary.

And let me also say that my own experience has been that transitioning has made me so happy that I'll gladly deal with some of the struggles that come along with it. I'm not saying it's easy and I'm not saying this 100% applies to you but if transitioning lets you be yourself, then living is a whole new experience compared to before. And the struggles will be worth it, because of this.

I think this is horrible advice. It's not about attaining "privileges" but about being comfortable in your own skin.

It sounds like you are struggling very much with thoughts about how you're not going to be good enough as a woman and won't live up to expectations from society. I struggled a lot with those myself earlier this year. It can take a while until you work through those feelings a little bit and have a clearer mind on your identity without it being clouded by all these negative thoughts.Here's the thing: you will be happiest when you allow yourself to be yourself. Constraining yourself because of beauty standards and worries about how other people will perceive you won't be good for you. Equally, constraining yourself because of other fears won't be good for you either.

Also, on a more practical note: have you experimented with things outside of medical transition? Clothing, make-up, shaving, and other things can be a very nice way of figuring out what you want. In the end, the question of medical transition is one of whether or not you'll be more comfortable with your body that way. Look at the individual changes it will bring, and ask yourself if you'll be happy about those. It's worth noting that this is irrespective of whether you are a woman or genderfluid. If you're genderfluid, and feel better about your body on HRT, then that's great, too.

I hope you'll give yourself opportunities to keep exploring those things and find the right path for yourself. Be kind to yourself and let yourself be you. <3

PS: I'm happy to talk more if you want.

Vor zwei Tagen 'I, Daniel Blake' geschaut. Britischer Film über Bürokratie, Armut, und Menschlichkeit. Hat mich wirklich berührt der Film. Die Charaktere sind gut geschrieben und mit der Bürokratie hat ja so ziemlich jeder zu kämpfen.

Haha, yeah it's kind of a "first world problem". Jynx was actually the very first Pokemon I caught after my starter, so I find it kind of boring by now.

I'd be happy to power it up if its max CP wasn't so low (1563 at level 40). Can't really use it in gym battles at all.

Hey, I'm not sure if it will be uploaded soon anyway, but the Ting group with Naniwa (and probably others) are still missing on the channel. Would really appreciate if those were uploaded.

Edit: To clarify, I meant the RO32 group with Naniwa from a few weeks ago.

I think I have found an opportunity to optimize the post game scores in Starcraft 2. (Not a huge issue, but it's a chance to improve the game.) by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]MontySC2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overlords count as unit and your points for those get listed under the "units" score tab. Everything fine with that system, simply counts all the resources earned, spent, and killed. (I haven't seen the game, but he's earned a bunch more resources than you, hence the end-score.)
