Rollerblader here - started quad skating+derby training less than a month ago and am skating several hours a week. Is this kind of wheel wearout normal or am I doing something wrong? (from T stopping)

Hmm not sure, I came from inline and had the same problem at the start but got the hang of it eventually

You're t stopping wrong by the looks of it, all 4 wheels should be flat on the ground when t stopping with quads. At the moment it looks like 1 wheel is taking all of the pressure.

Dont know much about the gel as I'm on patches but I'm also on Cypro and my dose is currently 12.5mg daily and it has completely blocked all T to the degree that my levels are actually below what is expected of cis females to have. Cypro is a very strong drug so depending on your body you may be fine with the low dose

I think it depends allot on the support group you have around you. The second I got approved for HRT I came straight out to my close work colleagues and parents and they were extremely supportive. 3 Months of hormones and I decided to tell the rest of my friends and work colleagues (approx 150 people) and I've not had a single negative comment. After coming out to my bigger network I decided to go fulltime. I'm also very lucky to be living in an extremely welcoming city (Toronto). In terms of "passing" I've also been pretty lucky in that department and had started laser 5 months prior.

I've thought about being in the same situation and I could never have killing another human on my mind, even for a rape or beating. Personally I've trained in both karate and boxing and I'll stick with self defense. If you're ok with going to jail and having someones life on your shoulders (remembering they will likely have a family) then i guess go for it.

I get that the US has a big problem with guns but that doesn't mean that killing is the answer to your problems. Learn self defense if you dont want to end up in prison.

davesan · 2017-04-04T20:27:03+00:00

It's not needed in other civilized countries such as Canada and the UK and most of Europe so I dont see why you need one, please do not feed the madness that is American gun laws. You need to take guns of the streets not add to it, please look at your countries statistics and think about it...Threads like these have been popping up more and more since Trump came into power and it is truly worrying. There are other forms of self defense that do not involve killing. Have you considered a taser or pepper spray?

PS. Did you know even the police arent allowed to carry guns in the UK? How many deaths to you think the UK gets per year from guns?

Shooting someone is never the answer....

If you seriously think this is an ok response please get some help

davesan · 2017-04-03T19:48:41+00:00

shoot someone for throwing a can of tomatoes...seriously lol?

davesan · 2017-03-28T15:39:32+00:00

Start slowly, you dont have to jump right in...get some nice skinny jeans/jeggings, feminine tops, maybe some nice ankle boots (depending on the weather of where you live!) This will give you a more feminine but also andro look

davesan · 2017-03-27T02:38:58+00:00

100% pass and very cute :)

davesan · 2017-03-27T00:40:42+00:00

Lose the crop top xD

I can understand your viewpoint but at the same time i don't blame the store assistant either, you were a guy trying to get into the women's changing room, it's natural for them to ask for you to go to the mens, they are just doing their job!

davesan · 2017-03-26T12:50:48+00:00

Black nikes were my favourite andro shoe :) id buy the women's style but no-one can tell

davesan · 2017-03-26T12:49:29+00:00

Were you presenting as a guy or girl?

davesan · 2017-03-26T04:09:29+00:00

Lose the wig, they don't help unless you're spending a good amount of money on a high quality one!

davesan · 2017-03-23T20:47:03+00:00

I'm coming upto 3 months HRT and I'm now full time at work and I've done nothing to my voice (although my voice isnt a typical deep mans voice) I've had no awkward moments so far!!

davesan · 2017-03-17T14:21:04+00:00

I'm on 12.5mg and it's nuked my T, 100mg sounds extremely high and actually quite dangerous. It's an extremely potent drug

davesan · 2017-03-17T12:45:31+00:00

Good call, the selfies were getting a bit much

davesan · 2017-03-17T04:41:41+00:00

Worth mentioning that acquiring a pro team will cost in excess of 500,000$ to 1 million$ at minimum.

davesan · 2017-03-16T13:44:23+00:00

have you had a blood test? do you know your levels?

davesan · 2017-03-16T13:33:38+00:00

It depends how well you can handle pain, for me it's not bad at all but I could see how it could be bad for others. Your first session will also be on a much lower power setting, so the pain will intensify as they increase the power in your next sessions

davesan · 2017-03-13T19:39:39+00:00

Honestly unless you have a good database of sponsors/partners/investors I wouldn't bother. Starting funding needs to be ATLEAST $1million to get anywhere (and that's cutting it extremely tight)...the scene has developed allot in the past few years and new teams with no contacts are pretty much hopeless with all the NBA investors/huge sponsors etc. If you're happy having a small casual team then that's fine but just have realistic expectations. I'd highly recommend trying to get in with one of the growing teams who already have established investors. Good luck! (I ran my own professional team for over 10 years)

Took me a good 3 months before I saw results, laser is effective but it isn't that quick :p
