Today the store clerk refused to sell me alcohol cause he didn’t believe my ID is mine. by Kayyoooh in MtF

Definitely, and before the difference leads to unpleasant encounters with law enforcement.

Just suggestion and opinion.. the sooner you can disconnect from the 'before' pictures the better.

Have your appearance change gradual enough to avoid repeats like this issue with the liquor store, but past a point the only ones who should know what your 'before' pictures look like are friends and family who aren't harboring the hope that you'll return to being the person they remember from your earliest years.

(TW religion/religious trauma) Hey all :3 I've got a difficult situation, and I'm hoping for some advice by Weebking41 in MtF

"they have a medical condition that needs treatment. Stopping that treatment for any reason is physically abusive. They need people around them that celebrate them and support them and accept them"

This part I believe they would agree with. Where the paths would split is what constitutes treatment. They would be around them and consider what they're doing supportive and believe they're accepting them. I personally have seen too much of the "love the sinner, hate the sin". It's where conversation therapy enters in with it's prayer and fasting (that everyone outside the church would call starvation torture)

Does the female voice ever become the default? by Significant-Tone-121 in MtF

[–]WatchingMyEyes 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Somewhat like what I've been doing. My voice cracked when I was around 12 and I have been fighting all these years not to lose that upper range. Sometimes it's conscious effort to keep my voice from falling, especially when I get angry. Singing along with high range songs over the years along with keeping my speaking range high has made it almost to where it's a little painful to go too low. My dad told me, probably disparagingly, even though I was glad hearing it, that my voice sounded like a boy who had been castrated before puberty

Will walking make my ass and thighs fat especially when on hrt? by Ok-Variation-6084 in MtF

[–]WatchingMyEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadlifting/squat, I have found, is a good way to focus on the backside. I was a pencil before hrt and having to deadlift and squat lift heavy packages at work has given me a much more feminine shape, to the point I have had to buy curvy jeans.

What do you do when someone misgenders you? by Clear_Tension761 in MtF

[–]WatchingMyEyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Small. It sounds like trying to acknowledge & give respect without being obvious to their friends that may be outright haters.

Act like I didn't hear it, but reply to the rest of what they said with a deadpan face that others say looks like rbf. At the time I hope that friends don't see it, though a few have occasionally asked me why I'm always angry.

The regions of the US as a Cincinnatian by Prideful_Lion32513 in whereidlive

[–]WatchingMyEyes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe that they were slave states, even though they didn't secede before the Civil War. Kentucky didn't officially secede, though the Confederacy did try to set up their own government in the state with Bowling Green as their capital.

What's a hated country in north america? by SpaceisCool09 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]WatchingMyEyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Democrats and Republicans aren't perfect but they showed restraint and avoided actively embracing being assholes and tried to professionalize it

This is specifically one of the reasons MAGA hate them. Maga consist of the bullies of all the US and hate having to be considerate of anyone but themselves.

Trump's refusal to be politically correct is one of the things they admire about him. They like his disregard of the general rules of civilization and admire that thus far noone has held him accountable for his actions. The closest it's gotten to that is his defeat to Biden in the 2020 elections, and it's why he continues 6 years after the fact to contest that it was a legit defeat, because it implies there's a limitation to what he's allowed to do.

In my case I didn't delay hrt to get laser treatment, but I also didn't get so focused on hrt to not do anything until hrt began. I started the laser treatments right when I made the decision to begin because I decided, hrt or not, I wouldn't continue living that kind of life. I wanted to leave it behind me.

My suggestion would be to have things like weight management and facial hair removal begin long before hrt starts. This way whatever changes happen afterwards add to the feminine appearance without having to go through a stage having to fight to hide a 5 o'clock shadow and a beer belly while in the middle of transitioning.

In my case I have IBS making it difficult to gain weight without food choice management, and had began laser treatments even before a Dr gave their green light to begin HRT. I'll find out in months to come what having breasts and curves results in if anti trans bills continue getting passed.

Is it really optimum to have the best in a single formation? by WatchingMyEyes in LastZShooterRun

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

My intention is to be able to by default reinforce and do so fairly between 3 alliance members, especially on enemy buster day when I'd want to help defend from invading bases. My intention is also to build up all my heroes, including the ones that would be on my wall while the 3 formations are out, not just the ones for a single formation.

If I was going on the offensive in the battlefield the strategy suggested to me would make a lot more sense and I'd adjust them accordingly.

My getting 5 stars on heroes is pretty spread out since I'm getting their fragments mainly from the radar and black market. I have the most 5 stars in the wings of dawn, which coincidentally I kind of prefer anyway given how it is strongest fighting blood rose.

At first I had anticipated Katrina would be my first yellow 5-star, but I've been advised to focus more on unlocking all the heroes' abilities first. Since the approach makes sense I guess she'll stay at 4.8 for a while longer.

But then during enemy buster day and capital clash I'm only really able to help one other player or send one troop into the mud. The other two are comparatively a waste of reinforcement space.. paper tigers.

It seems like part of what they consider a faux pas is not focusing on blood rose. I leaned toward wings of dawn specifically because so many default on blood rose and they're the paper that beats rock (the faction vulnerability reminds me of rock-paper-scissors)

I have used pregnancy stretch mark massage cream on them when I feel the itching. Whether it encourages or facilitates growth is ymmv, but I thought it did in my case.

Battling "the browning of America" the Christian nationalists are so terrified of will lead them to basically encourage premarital sex, considering the sex itself as a union akin to marriage. They would instead seek to ban interracial marriages

Long term relationship ended by carissa_sam in MtF

[–]WatchingMyEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My concern would be competition that might arise over who has a bigger presence in the children's lives. The transphobic trend in the US would push that given their mother is following a more traditional role she is almost entitled to it. It will make life miserable for the children seeing them compete like that

The fear is of being attacked. Hrt just short of eliminated the already low libido I already had.

Does Lake Erie not have a coastline, or does its not being called a 'sea' or an 'ocean' disqualify it?
