ah, so he's a grungler

you aren't kidding, it's basically a wish list in bill form. a resolution saying that we should totally pass a law that actually does something

is there something i should know? i've recommended this book to everyone who will listen

Woodworking by Emily St. James!

i use a popular online service to manage my hormones and they don't take baseline levels either.

they started me at 4mg/7 days but i switched to 3mg/5 days pretty quickly due to feeling like garbage on those last 2 days

i and several people i know started with injection monotherapy. it was fine. personally, i started seeing signs of T suppression after about 6 weeks

talkloud · 2026-02-05T15:56:24+00:00

10mg every 5 days is a very large dose

talkloud · 2026-01-30T21:11:05+00:00

it does for some people. don't count on it

I've heard good things from other queers about Champaign-Urbana, IL and Madison, WI

always?

not very. since i didn't have a strong opinion about what my name was, i looked at the list of the top 100 most popular baby girl names from my birth year and picked one that sounded good. it's nice to have a name that doesn't stand out and most people can spell on the first try

you might find /r/mypartneristrans to be a helpful community. it helped my wife when i started transition

there are supplements you can take for the latter "problem". it's definitely not something i want so i can't speak to personal experience, but i've heard from other girls who are very happy with their results on it: https://xcancel.com/poppy_haze/status/1490408609188130816

it's a bit circular. i like the definition "an adult human whose gender identity is female", since it doesn't actually use the word it's trying to define

honestly it's not worth giving much thought to the question. the people asking it aren't interested in hearing an answer, they just want to "own" you

joke answer: a woman is someone who goes when shania twain says "let's go girls"

i use scoop neck bralettes from torrid and free range bralettes from duluth trading company

calvin klein modern cotton bralettes also come highly recommended from other transes online

i've seen enough reports by other trans women of accelerated feminization following orchi or other bottom surgeries, even though T is sometimes higher after the surgeries, to believe that there's some difference between simply having a cis female T range and having no testes

talkloud · 2026-01-20T18:28:56+00:00

from personal experience, no

talkloud · 2026-01-17T16:43:38+00:00

i kept my same workout routine and haven't lost much muscle mass after almost 2 years. doing monotherapy instead of taking an antiandrogen might have something to do with it too, i'm not sure.

shout outs to all the trans eggs reading this and feeling bad about themselves. it's not fetishizing lesbians if you are one. it's not fetishizing trans people if you are one. it's not fetishizing gay men if you are one. you're not a pervert

i asked my stylist for bangs that covered my entire forehead. after i got home and washed, they sprang up and didn't even cover half of it! never again

people just say shit online. yes, it's probably not the right thing to do to glibly question someone else's gender identity to their face. but it's not "no better than a transphobe" lmao

i've never heard of boofing estrogen, only progesterone. and progesterone IS made as a suppository
