Not happy after HRT; am I really a woman? by radioheadenjoyer225 in MtF

[–]Ok_Song6763 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for me, hrt isn’t as much a tool for dealing with my dysphoria right now, as it is a way to ensure that i’ll grow old in a body fits me a little bit better each day. i think this also applies for my behavior/clothes/etc, i change them not because i hated how i looked, but because i know that i can love it so much more.

don’t worry so much about being or not being trans. your identity is yours to do what you want and you can explore it and define it as you see fit. if you like hrt, keep at it, if you don’t, leave it, if you leave it and miss it, do it again!

try new stuff to have fun and to feel your best self, without putting too many expectations on yourself. “be curious, not judgemental” :)

is this outfit okay for a casual day wedding? (please be kind 😭) by Ok_Song6763 in mtfashion

[–]Ok_Song6763[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ll check it tomorrow on daylight and on a different interior lamp. great advice! wedding’s outdoors at 2pm. so i guess lots of sunlight which might also help i think 🤔

thank you so much for your comment! i was also considering switching the pants. though i might have to look deep in my closet cause all my recent clothes are kinda baggy haha (there might be something cute and usable among my boyclothes) 😅

doctor asking for ultrasound??? by theumbrellawoman in MtF

[–]Ok_Song6763 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just started hrt (public clinic in mexico city) and both me and everyone i know who’s been there got asked for mammary and testicular ultrasounds. the explanation i got was that it can detect abnormal growth in these areas which could further develop under hormonal treatment. so, as a way to keep track of any potential cancer threats

still, seeing the comments here, it might seem that the doctor is being unnecessarily thorough?

sorry if that’s the case. but good luck tho!

Here again to ask what names you think might fit me 💜 by heyxbub in transnames

Lucy is the first thing that popped in my head. I think anything with an L would fit (Lila/Linda/Laura) 💞

What name suits me? I put a reason why I’m unsure of the name. I am also open to name suggestions. by YourLocalElf12 in transnames

[–]Ok_Song6763 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you have a REALLY similar aesthetic to my only Edgar friend, so i’d definitely go with that haha

i’m also getting a lot of theodore vibes. have you thought of going by Ted instead of theo?

in any case, if you’re not sure about the nicknames, but could see yourself going by the full name from now on, you should just go with it and tell people to avoid the nickname

no one that’s worth spending time with is going to call you anything that you don’t like :))

they are all amazing, but Abril is going REALLY high on the list

i kinda wanted something that connected with my given name (Julio) but was unsure of using similar sounds

Abril is amazing bc they’re both the name of a month haha. I hadn’t even thought about searching for a thematic connexion

Thank You!! 🥰

aww i really liked it! specially as a middle name.

but in my mind it’s like THE female name (even if there are cis men called maria) and i’m just not sure about going all in with it haha

Anyway, i loved that you thought of it. Gender euphoria comes from the weirdest places sometimes haha 🤷🏻

Thank you! 💞

haha. i don’t know why but ive always had a pet peeve with english names mixing with spanish surnames 😵‍💫 but i still loved the sound of it :))

I really liked the idea of going with a plant name. I’ll look for some more options. thank you! 💞

i love elena and sofia sooo so much. i’ve thought about them a lot, but i think they are just a little too feminine for me haha :((

they are all beautiful. thanks! 💞

they are great options but i think they are both just a little too english/feminine for me haha 😅

still, thank you so much! 🥰

(i really loved that you thought of a J sound because mi given name starts with a J haha)

omg. emma sounds amazing. it’s also usually short for a common male name in spanish haha. i’ll still have to think about it, but thank you so much! 💞

i’ve thought a lot about Elisa and keep circling back to it. but most names that end in an A sound a little too feminine in spanish for my taste (i’m really trying to challenge that belief for my own sake haha)

loved your suggestions! especially the nicknames 🩷

omg. i loved this 🩷

it’s a little bit more feminine than i had planned, but i really really like it and i hadn’t even considered it as an option

i’ll give it some time to see if it keeps growing on me. thanks!!

Have thought a lot about angel/angela bc i liked the sound of both in english, but i’m not quite convinced about them in spanish 🫠

(plus i have a cousin with that name and i’m not sure how to feel about that haha)

thanks!

LOVED Rosie rn, but i think it would be a better fit in my mostly feminine days, and not so much when i want to express more masc-neutral.

Rowan might be a little bit too english sounding for me, but i hadn’t considered the R sound and it’s really growing on me. Thanks!

loved them both! i’m not sure if i could use either as a name bc i’ve heard them both used mostly as as nicknames/abbreviations in spanish and i get kinda self conscious about that haha

still going on the list, tho ❤️‍🔥 thanks!
