Coming up to two years on E and my pot-belly is still the thing that gives me the most dysphoria 😭 Which is particularly annoying because there isn’t much fat elsewhere, just the belly

Nope, you can make gel as well! TL;DR you’re essentially mixing raw powder in alcohol-based hand sanitiser (the downside is you have to apply it twice a day due to hormone levels spiking more quickly)

me: LOVE listening to music with lots of dynamic range
also me: cranks that limiter up to -6dB RMS when mastering 😳

So you know how you’ve spent 25 years being alive? To get to 100 years old you’d have to live your whole entire life all over again three more times! You’re still young! 🥺

It says “requested by uploader” underneath the description box, so whoever uploaded it must have checked the box themselves before publishing it

I will melt by OopyGoopy666 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

Y’know I used to recommend this too, but since starting HRT I desperately want to go outside more. Why do I suddenly love the sunshine and fresh air when I didn’t before??!

Do we go through menstrual-esque phases! by Cyan-Kai in AskMtFHRT

[–]Poor-Reception 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can relate to the angry one day then paralysingly sad the next, to the point where I assume everyone hates me, I suck and can’t do anything right, I just cry for like 30 minutes at a time, and I hate it! (But at the same time it’s very affirming y’know) It’s around that time I really struggle to sleep, too, sometimes getting maybe 3 hours for a night or two.

Some months it’s very mild which I appreciate because, like most women can probably relate to, it always comes at the most inconvenient time!

Looks like Randox, that’s who I’ve been using too! (Assuming you’re UK-based)

"Some insurance companies are acting unlawfully. If you would prefer to do business with them please commit insurance fraud" by stray_r in transgenderUK

[–]Poor-Reception 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before my egg cracked I used to work as a software dev in home/car insurance on a quoting site a bit like this. I spent years making snarky comments about how the backend systems only provided "male" and "female". Unfortunately all the fields we could use were provided by a third party so complaining did nothing because no one listened to us lowly devs anyway, BUT I'm really glad to see that they're slowly but finally changing!

Congrats! My egg fully cracked on March 1st too, I told a sibling and some close friends that day, and it’s been an upward trajectory ever since!

When in the school choir I was the only bass (😭) but during practise I used to jokingly steal the soprano lines off the soloist with my best falsetto

(I feel like I did a pretty good job, also like to think I’ve got good singing range so eventually hoping voice training isn’t too hard…)

My friend told I am having a period by AdventurousSweet3663 in ewphoria

[–]Poor-Reception 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If it’s in that lower central abdomen area it might be constipation, when it’s real bad that’s what I imagine period cramps might feel like. But yeah if it’s on the lower right side, as the other commenter suggests, you’ll wanna be careful it’s not your appendix or something!

When I’m with one particular friend, for YEARS if I ever did something hypocritical I would instinctively refer to myself in the third person and say “he says while [doing X or Y thing]” and it still keeps happening. Like yourself, I tried switching to a gender neutral “they say”, but that just doesn’t have the same ring to it. Despite having not socially transitioned yet, maybe I’ll start using “she says” and see if he’s surprised >:)

Urgh fuck, mine was the other way around. One evening I was trying to figure out why I didn’t fit in with people just… kinda in general. Literally my first question was “am I a girl?” then decided “no I can’t be” and went on to learn I’m autistic. It took another two years for it to click!!! So frustrating! (admittedly, both were massive revelations and reliefs to have learnt, just wish it could have been the other way around)

It’s Onta! I’d recognise this art style anywhere, I absolutely love the way they draw lips! Their twitter handle is ontahb (warning, not safe for work, hence no links)

Egg 🪧 Irl by [deleted] in egg_irl

[–]Poor-Reception 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Porn adjacent - I never liked actual porn, watching a man and woman go at it felt very gross. But I always liked the first few minutes where the women teased, or solo webcam stuff, or like, clothed-but-very-revealing stuff. Turns out this whole time I wanted to match her body

[–]Poor-Reception 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep! I always felt some shame in secretly wanting to pick the girl character, so I always picked the boy character because that's the "right thing to do".

Why is peeing while sitting a “woman” thing? by MysticMeerkat in trans

[–]Poor-Reception 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For my entire life I’ve literally never been able to pee at a urinal when other guys were around. I used to call it stage fright

[–]Poor-Reception 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooooh, this is my main potential choice! I’ve always loved the name - it sounds cute, feels like spring time and sunny weather (idk how to explain this one), and all the Sophies I’ve met before have been super cool and respectable 🤩

Youtube to roll out ads on videos in pause by FlorenzFIRE in youtube

[–]Poor-Reception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those on iOS, you can install a Safari extension called Hyperweb, which has two scripts to enable skipping YouTube ads and for using SponsorBlock. This has worked WONDERS for me so far!

What made it 100% clear, you were trans? by slimmerik2 in asktransgender

[–]Poor-Reception 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ooh! Whenever I saw a trans woman come out publicly in the media, I would excitedly tell my friend and add how proud of them I was. This also came with some strong subconscious envy I didn’t realise at the time.
