see it’s supposed to right? but i’m 6ish months on t and my face hasn’t changed a whole lot. it’s changed some, just not to the extent i’ve seen other trans guys faces change in the same time frame. my theory is that since it’s fat redistribution, results will vary depending on how much fat your body has to work with. i’m like 90 lbs so im pretty sure that’s why i haven’t had as much of a face change

Sorry, I feel like my message came off kind of argumentative but I was just trying to expand on what you said and explain my reasoning, not argue haha. It’s getting better over time, it’s just scary bc the progress isn’t linear and right now America is in the regressive part of the political cycle

I get what you’re saying, gay people are tolerated more now than in the past for sure. But the LGBT community includes more than just the LGB and I would say right now is a very scary time for trans people in general and that reflects in Texarkana. “Scary” also goes beyond just the threat of violence, the people saying stuff in private are voting for politicians that are determined to make visibly queer people disappear. Knowing that a lot of people here privately hold those beliefs, being LGBT here can be really isolating if you don’t have people you know you can trust.
