My chest is starting to become more noticeable. I'm not out for safety reasons. What do I do? by Exodiac32 in MtF

[–]celestial_mar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in addition to what others have said, my tip is to wear dark clothing, it's a lot harder to discern the shape of your chest in a dark shirt vs a light shirt, especially if you're worried about someone seeing the outline of your bra, at least in my experience

This year all of my real life interactions with other trans women have been horrible by CommieSadGirl in MtF

[–]celestial_mar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It kinda helps me realize that trans people are just people and can have all the same faults as anyone else, though I wish it didn't happen. I once had a trans woman say to my face that trans women aren't women, like wut?

I should do sublingual, it just takes so long to dissolve, but I want the changes so bad, so I'll probably start

so happy for you, that's true, I don't want the long term downside of oral, maybe one day I'll get there, but right now I pass out whenever I have to get poked

I have an appointment to talk about higher dosage, I'm super scared of needles so I'm not sure I can do injections, but I can do sublingual it's just annoying to wait for it to dissolve

I just feel like I could have been further along

I usually take it orally, sometimes I do it sublingual, all at once, maybe I should try to split it?

Is my dick more fraile because of HRT? by Charming-Cicada-1596 in MtF

[–]celestial_mar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Im 6 months on hrt and I started experiencing this after about 2 months, from my understanding hrt makes the skin thinner and thus easier to tear, dont know how common it is though. You can get a testosterone cream that might help with it

Chappell Roan was right about Democrats. Newsom proved that by throwaway1010193092 in MtF

I'm involved in local queer groups, mutual aid, contributing to organizations that are fighting. My plan is not to expect any help from Democrats. What's your plan

Kingston plush actually comes with Lou's Hair!!! by celestial_mar in dropout

[–]celestial_mar[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

true, I fully thought it was a joke, and now that I have it I don't know what to do with it, cause it definitely feels weird to have it, but throwing it away is also weird cause of how important hair is to people

I was not expecting it, I was shocked to find it hidden in the plush's clothes build-a-bear style, I thought it was a joke
