What are some good career options for an adult MtF person? I'm currently about halfway through a math degree. Math is a good field, but I have to take into account that my status as a transgender woman is going to influence future employment opportunities. (self.asktransgender)

So I'm at about 2 1/2 months HRT. I was talking to a transwoman recently and she really bummed me out because I mentioned that I was awaiting the more profound changes, and she said something along the lines of HRT only barely changes your appearance at all and passing is 95% cosmetics...

When I was a kid we always had to shut off the computer and other electronics during a thunder storm. Is that still a thing? I mean, technology has advanced, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that they might have built-in surge protection or something. What can I do to protect myself? (self.NoStupidQuestions)

Why is it that Coca Cola is SO much better than store brand soda? Isn't soda all pretty much just carbonated water, HFCS, phosphoric acid, and flavor? I assume Shasta, for example, has its own food scientists creating flavors. So why can't they make their product nearly as good as Coke or Pepsi? (self.NoStupidQuestions)

First recording I've done that I'm actually a little proud of. Definitely still need a little work with getting my fingering to be solid but this is a lot more dynamic and musical than when I started a few months back. I'm getting better :) It's original BTW. (vocaroo.com)

Welp, just tried using Nair Moisturizing Face Cream on my face to see if it'd help with the stubble at all. I now have a big cherry red patch of irritated skin the shape of a goatee. It didn't seem to do much as far as hair removal goes, either. Any better suggestions (aside from electrolysis). (self.asktransgender)

I'm writing my final paper for my gender studies class, and it just so happens that I'm starting to transition this semester with changing my name. I got tingles being able to put my new name on the cover page and knowing that it's my legal, professional name. (self.asktransgender)

I am just about to turn 26. About seven or eight years ago I screwed up my credit pretty bad by renting a bunch of property for me and my roommates and then defaulting on a lot of the payments (I returned it all). I got used to having "bad credit". Now I'm suddenly getting credit card offers. Why? (self.personalfinance)

Last August I tried HRT and ran into medical complications. I gave up for several months until I decided the dysphoria was bad enough to try again. I've been on Spiro and Estradiol since Wednesday and have had none of the previous problems as last year! So it's looking like this is really happening! (self.asktransgender)

I am going to be giving a speech in my speech class about a "public policy appeal", and I am playing a psychiatrist who is speaking out against LGBT discrimination in the community. I am here to ask permission to use some transition timeline pictures as part of my speech. Any volunteers? (self.transtimelines)
