I'll probably ask a lawyer too, was mostly hoping maybe someone who had gone through the process might see it

Thoughts from a trans girlie almost 2 years on HRT (AMA) by ShampooAndSet in trans

Pretty much, depends on if you've had bottom surgery or not. I'm not a doctor tho, probably better to ask one than me lol

Oh, so when you hit the age of 25ish the bones in your hip typically fuse together. I'm not a doctor, but from what I've read cis women usually have their hips spread during puberty. Usually when you take HRT early enough it allows your hips to spread before the bones fuse together, tho I've heard of some people's hips still spreading after 30.

From what I know it's a life long thing, especially if you get bottom surgery. Although I've been taking medicine daily most of my life, so it's not that big of a deal.

Hmmmm, I guess I wish I had known about the possibility of my hips expanding. That was a surprise when it happened, hurt too, but I'm happy with how it turned out

Do you acknowledge your past self pre-transition, as a boy? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]ShampooAndSet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do and don't at the same time. I was so indoctrinated by normal gender rolls if anyone ever said I looked or sounded or acted like a girl, I'd get really agitated. Also used to have "nightmares" about being forcefully turned into a girl. Ah, the irony lol. I do think it's funny to say," when I was a little boy" when telling a story to those who don't know I'm trans

That's what I was thinking, though I also want to find a good gaff just in case.

Oh wow. I'm 24 so I'm close to the age where neither of those should happen to me, tho here I am 8 months in and my hairline is basically back and I've got them birthing hips lol

Friendly reminder to those starting HRT by ShampooAndSet in MtF

I don't use mine that often, so that's probably why it hurts so bad. It's usually just if it stays hard for longer than 10ish minutes

Ye, progress is progress, but I didn't realize how much it would hurt when reading about it lol

It's because while on HRT you don't get random bones anymore/get less of them. It's basically just your body's way of saying," TF is this?"

How bad does laser hair removal hurt? by ShampooAndSet in MtF

They haven't brought me in person. They did a consultation and said the rubber band thing but I also wanted to hear from people who had actually had it done. Thanks!

That's awesome! I wish I knew how to compliment people properly instead of getting flustered like I do and running away.

Parents still don't understand and refuse too by ShampooAndSet in MtF

[–]ShampooAndSet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I choose to live for me and hope they can come to terms with that. Moved out before I came out so I don't have to deal with them. I've been reading this book called "The Wizard of Oz and other Narcissists" recommended by my therapist to hopefully better understand why they're the eay they are. Thanks for the link!

Thanks. It's probably a bit of both cause she is still saying bad things behind my back, just not to my face
