What is something you wish you knew sooner, or what is something that would have helped you earlier on in your journey?

Any general advice? Don't try x, or definitely look into y? Be aware of Z?

  • Body hair can disappear on HRT. You can't rely on it going away, but it sometimes does

    This was my experience

    • That's good to hear it does happen sometimes, but uh, I am working with a lot more than that unfortunately

      • Ultimately, you can't really know what will happen until it happens. It's a roll of the dice :)

        • Makes sense to half my brain, but the autistic side is like "I need to know what will happen first!"

          Gods,the though of chest hair on breasts... 🤢

          Other than that, landing androgynously nonbinary is an option? I guess?

            Oh, don't sweat that. There's a lot of different ways of dealing with it. Waxing, shaving, laser, electrolysis...

            Other than that, landing androgynously nonbinary is an option?

            Only if you're non binary...

            • 🤷‍♀️

              3 months ago I didn't give being cis a second thought 😅 who knows really. I do have a book about identity I really need to work through though.

              • Heh, yeah. There is no easy road here when suddenly you'll have all the answers. But ultimately, the whole point of the journey is to give yourself permission to find who you are, however long that takes :)

                • Insightful and helpful as always Ada 😊

                  "giving yourself permission" I have been realizing that, slowly I'm finding stuff I'm ok with or like and only able to come to the conclusion that I just wasn't allowing myself to whatever.
