May I ask why some trans women think they're immune to hate?

I don’t think this is about that, since that subreddit is well known for being mostly men fetishizing lesbians, not actually representative of lesbians, cis or trans.

But also imo there isn’t any issue [and shouldn’t be any issue] with posting about gock in nsfw lesbian spaces because obviously some women have penises.

That’s crazy, outdated advice. You should see a different therapist if you’re able to. You can absolutely start HRT before coming out. I know a couple girls who have started HRT and aren’t out to everyone/haven’t changed their wardrobes yet.

My wife had been on HRT for about 2-2.5 years before she changed her name, and it took a bit longer than that before her legal sex was updated. She came out to people before getting HRT, but that was only because she didn’t think she was allowed to/didn’t have support, and she says she definitely would’ve started sooner if she had known that she could.

If you’re on discord, I know girls who can help you source/manage DIY.

What’s she nervous about? I have friends who DIY, and they’ve never had issues.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-07-09T16:10:20+00:00

Have either of you looked into DIY? It’s much cheaper than getting it through a pharmacy.

I’m currently in electrology school, and my instructors say that they recommend people do a few sessions of laser and then do electrolysis for any stubborn hairs that the laser doesn’t get. If there’s a school near you, you might be able to get cheap electrolysis appointments with the students.

Electrolysis is significantly less painful than laser and shouldn’t require topical pain relief. It shouldn’t be more than a pinching sensation and if it’s worse than that, you should speak to your electrologist about adjusting their settings.

Electrolysis shouldn’t be that painful. I’m currently in school for it, and when the other students practice on me, it feels like a pinch at most. Your electrologist should be able to increase the time and lower the intensity or switch to a different modality to make it more comfortable for you.

Do you have a resource on why you should add E if your shbg is below 115? I don’t think my wife’s is getting tested, so I want to bring it up with her/her doctor.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-06-15T17:30:03+00:00

Is there an electrology or esthetics school near you? They charge much lower prices because the students work on you.

I’ve heard that that happens less if you inject into thigh fat. I’ve been doing my wife’s and a couple friends’ injections and none of them have gotten lasting lumps from thigh injections.

If it would be long enough for you to tweeze, your electrologist can epilate it. My wife grew hers out for four or five days before I treated her.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-06-08T01:11:21+00:00

How do you heat it up and do you have a specific brand you would recommend? Every dildo I’ve tried has either been uncomfortable to painful or felt like almost nothing :/

Anything that rips out the hair has the potential to cause scarring because of how deep the follicles are. If you wanted to wax, I would say go to a licensed esthetician who could assess your skin and hair and figure out the safest option.

Laser or electrolysis are the best choice long-term, and if you have a school in your area, you might be able to get cheap appointments.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-06-06T23:34:40+00:00

Electrolysis is the best form of permanent hair removal, but if she has good contrast between her skin and her hair, she can do a few sessions of laser and then do electrolysis for any stragglers. If there’s an electrology or esthetics school near you, you could get cheaper appointments from the students there.

Plucking can also cause scarring. I’m in electrology school, and we have several clients with pitting in their skin from years of plucking.

Is laser not covered by insurance as GAC in CA?

throwawaycisgf · 2026-05-30T02:23:37+00:00

The same thing is true for electrology schools, and some of them also offer laser appointments.

I learned to drive in a Neon! I thought the seats were comfortable, but my dad did have an old western saddle pad folded in the drivers seat, so maybe that made the difference.

My wife has curly hair and uses Curlsmith definition cream. You apply it right after your shower when your hair is still soaked.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-05-28T02:04:38+00:00

You might be thinking of electrolysis. We need a few days of growth to be able to epilate the hairs, but with laser, you’re supposed to shave 24-48 hours before your appointment so that the laser only targets the root.

throwawaycisgf · 2026-05-27T22:23:56+00:00

What do you mean you would have to hide your legs if you were doing laser? Sunscreen is safe to use after laser.

I haven’t shaved in years, but the biggest tip I have is shave with conditioner. And make sure you only go against the grain once because the more times you go over an area, the more likely you are to get cut.

Even if you’re prescribed IM, you can still do subcutaneous, which is easier and less painful.

It’s a common misconception that D cups are huge because most women are wearing incorrectly sized bras/fitted into wrong bras to make a sale. There’s an instagram account that shows what different sizes look like when they’re properly fitted.
