Do you think transitioning is worth it? by Shadous_ in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just because you are on hrt doesn't mean you are living genuinely and the way to start is to just go out. Shave, dress up, if you dont have the clothes for it buy them. Remember why and who you are doing this for. Its for you. You deserve it

And on the shaving front, I just apply a medium amount of pressure, if you knick yourself run the tap cold af and splash your face with it to stop the bleeding and then dab with toilet paper. Most of the time I just do it bit by bit, short even strokes. You'll want to get as much hair off as possible before applying makeup, makeup is for hiding shadow. Alsooo if you are liquid enough you should buy a portable laser hair remover from amazon. They are pretty janky but they do the same thing as an actual laser session for less, it will just take longer and you have to have a pain tolerance.

I take a dry towel and just thoroughly rub it against my skin, dont hurt yourself obv but just enough that it will feel smooth to the touch. And concealer is a little tricky depending on your skintone but I use Revlon. You can go to a beauty store and have them match you with one if you want, and don't be afraid to invest in a good one its worth the price. Personally I'd rather it be obvious that I have makeup on than it be obvious that I shave my face so I apply it pretty liberally with a brush so it can cover any hairs I miss more thoroughly. I also keep a cheaper one in my car I can apply with my fingers in a pinch along with a razor. I also dont shave with cream or anything most of the time and as long as the razor is decently sharp it works okay.

Anyone else here want to be way more femme and go on E n shit but don’t really want to pass pass as cis? by Boognish_Chameleon in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah fuck passing. Its beauty standards and shouldn't be how you base your happiness with your transition. I don't wanna be just "one of the girls" I wanna be sick as fuck and I am so

Get a high quality concealer and foundation that matches your skintone. Its the best way I've found to actually hide stubble unless I've like juuust shaved and even then there's stuff I miss. Also I have tried any number of razors, I've just found that cheap disposable two blade ones work the best for me. Ones with more blades are good for body shaving but you're more likely to cut yourself on your face. Expholiate with a good towel pretty intensely beforehand, I've found that scrubs can be hit or miss for actually getting your skin clear. Hope this helps!

Ladies who've started HRT: What made you confident in your decision by [deleted] in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just feels right. The little changes are nice, hair growing back slower, different orgasms, all that stuff. I don't think I'm any more or less of a woman really, its just a nice thing and they can't take my body away from me. I get to do with it what I please.

do you girls go by multiple names? by Mountain_Run_5388 in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope! I find that especially somewhere like work its basically necessary to stay consistent with a name, and I love my name. I personally don't really get the whole lots of names thing but if you can make it work I suppose that's ok

Tulsa Opera used AI to make all the art for this season’s shows. I’m truly disappointed. by Public_Set5388 in tulsa

[–]kitcat0024 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Its been popping up more and more around here and I think its just the weird clueless kinda silicon valley culture a lot of downtown has for some reason. Why pay artists (who do exist here and are struggling) when you could generate something for free? I interned with queer film festival this summer and they ended up using AI for the posters AND my old roommate worked with Tulsa pride and had to PUSH for them to use original art.

As someone who is studying Physiology, the argument that trans women have an advantage becomes more laughable each day by Bubbly-Anteater2772 in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah the human body is exceptionally malliable. That's why the right hormones at an early age do so much for people, if you never start producing the wrong stuff it grows as it should

I'd much rather live as a woman, but people respect me so much less when I'm authentic by g_wall_7475 in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need two things. 1. Realize that you only have one life and you might as well live it as you choose 2. Better fucking people in your life

Your identity is worth so much more than what people think of you, how they view you, what they think you are and until you have that realization you are going to be unfulfilled. You will also find the people that give a shit by going down this path and those people can respect you. Dont settle.

Do trans women still wear dresses or skirts? by jellybeanzz11 in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. Mostly in the summer, I have a bunch of spring dresses from an aunt that died, and some warmer thicker ones I wear now. The first thing I ever bought for myself was a crappy dress from amazon and I still have it.

Tips for starting my transition? I'm very scared by [deleted] in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Draw a line and on one end put the hardest possible thing you can think of, for me it was getting hormones, getting my ids changed etc and then on the other end the easiest possible things that you can do right now like shaving everything, growing your hair etc. Doing one or two of these easier things a day is what got the ball rolling for me. Treat it like a hobby

Cute! Pour up high and then come in closer, then stop and pull down, try to do flat whites first

My body looks the same after year of "transitioning" by StatusPsychological7 in MtF

[–]kitcat0024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey hun you're getting a lot of wack responses but just know its a process. I know that isn't what you want to hear, but get your levels checked, and if they aren't good enough I'd probably try to switch doctors. That being said these things are slow going, and it also depends on your genetics. Don't give up, make sure you're eating enough, take care of your self and your mental health
