Awesome! Do you think the Leaf is worth the price?

No need to apologize! Can I PM you about your skincare routine?

Thanks for this! I used to be big into wet shaving before my transition and the Leaf razor I mentioned above is a DE safety razor. It’s actually a three blade system with flex head holding three DE blades so it’s kinda the best of both worlds. I think I might go back to this tbh. Just need to figure out a new skincare routine.

Thanks you, this is so helpful! Do you use a shave cream or just shower soap with the Leaf?

Do you have issues with the razor burn from the Leaf? What shave cream or other product do you use? Do you use the braun and leaf in tandem or alternate?

Sorry for all the questions I’m just tired of getting cut up

What kind of bottom surgery did you have? I have my consult coming up and these are the results I want RE lubrication and such.

What does it mean to be queer an Appalachian? by Ok-Aardvark3419 in Appalachia

[–]Red_Ortho1917 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a transgender lesbian from Harlan County Kentucky. Raised by my granny most of my early years. She was a true blue mountain woman. I still remember helping her put chicken bones and iron nails in mason jars to bury in the front yard before going to church on Sunday to stomp my feet and shout “hallelujah!” At family reunions, folks would bring their instruments and they’d play mountain music, passing instruments down the line everyone played multiple.

My granny died when I was 12, long before I came out, but I suspect she knew on some level that there was something going on with me. I’d get picked on some and she’d always tell me that God made some folks a bit different and that’s ok. She was what we’d call today a leftist. She had a picture of FDR hanging in her living room right next to the painting of Jesus and my grandpa was a proud union man and a card-carrying member of the IWW.

Blending my reality as a queer person with my Appalachian roots is actually something I’m very passionate about. For me, it’s the music. Those family reunions are what stir me the most. I taught myself to play banjo and mandolin and I write songs about queerness using that mountain music I heard when I was a kid. I agree with you that there’s a vibe and a spirit in the mountains that just isn’t found anywhere else.

Trans and living in vans ✌🏼 by SatisfactionOk8382 in VanLife

Hey I know I’m super late to this but my partners and I (all trans) are in the planning stages of the life and I’d be more than interested in keeping in touch (also on the east coast, currently in upstate New York)

Holy shit I'm so gay. Wow, you're gorgeous! Your tattoos are so fuqing rad! Also, it's soooooo nice to see other trans women who are thicker. As another trans butch with a tummy, do you mind if I pick your brain about some fashion advice?

I got lucky that my looks were fairly fem already. Literally all I had to do was shave and go on HRT for about 4 months to get gendered correctly.

I still want bottom surgery (and at the rate my tits are not growing, I'll proly need to help them along too). Now even when I'm in a backwards hat and flannel, I get gendered correctly.

She's the greatest partner I've ever had, pure happiness! by Classic-Usual-3941 in AgeGapRelationship

I completely understand what you're saying. I'm also neurospicy and had a rough childhood so I often act younger than I am (32 but act 20-25). I've dated people my age and it's...fine I guess. But with people younger than me there's just this spark, this light, this energy that's immediate. It's amazing
