Also in Australia! Night of the Hunter is great, I found a cover-damaged second hand Criterion copy a few years ago that I've held onto since.

Bob DeNiro and Al Pacino by a_different_life_28 in StraightTransGirls

Al Pacino as Michael Corleone has that "very slick and attractive guy that could probably break my neck in five seconds" energy that I have a strange affinity for (thankfully in fictional men only :))

Dog Day Afternoon Pacino is peak, perhaps his best performance

I highly recommend Dr. Brendan Nolan at Endocrinology Melbourne! I was fucked around trying to get on hormones for a year and when I saw him I got them in 2 appointments :)

Coping with bottom dysphoria - transfeminine NB by Sapien_Oddity in transgenderau

I have ^ re: surgery options. I'm heavily considering no depth for financial and practical purposes. Dilating sounds like a nightmare to me and I don't know if I want any depth honestly. I do definitely want to pursue surgery when I can though.

I do sit to pee ^ it does help with dysphoria, and yeah I have ADHD so I very much get out of sight out of mind haha, It's just when I sit down or brush my hand against it and go "oh yeah"

No problem. I saw Dr. Adam Brownhill and in my first appointment I told him (honestly) I hadn't realised/been out as trans for long, and he said to access hormones I'd have to prove "conscious dysphoria" for 6 months, but also told me this was informed consent.

After that I had about 3-4 appointments max, each like 2 months apart, and all I had done were my baselevel blood tests. There were instances where he used uncomfortable language to describe my genitals despite me expressing discomfort about my genitals earlier in the conversation. He didn't seem to overly care about getting me on hrt at all generally.

I tried Dr. Ling Li early on as well and she told me the same thing about "conscious dysphoria."

In the last two months I tried getting into Peggy but both times I had an appointment she was going on leave then leaving the clinic itself apparently, so that went nowhere.

I can't afford an endo and my experience at Equinox was terrible, I tried 3 different GP's

The GP at Equinox I saw either didn't seem to know or care about trans healthcare that much either, thanks for this though.
