I should just start taking estrogen to alleviate/repair my baldness cause TIL that is one effect. But I don't get then how finasteride comes into play... :blobcatthink:

So yeah I definitely feel like I want to maybe transition, or just present more fem, or whatever, but like I'm just curious what people think of the following, of my personal interests:

* prefer female leads/female characters in video games, movies, media, etc.

* picks female characters in video games more often than male, for example in the fallout series (whereas in the elder scrolls series I normally do male, idk just cowboy/wasteland babes = heart eyes)

* prefer female oriented comics, romance comics, etc.
Currently reading Hard Lacquer on Tapas and it's SO GOOD and everyone is really cute

* strong desire for relationships that mirror wlw relationships moreso than mlm or cishet relationships. and perhaps this is just my flawed view of them based on media representation, or what people draw in their comics or share stories of, or what I see in social media posts. generally the relationships being trusting, comfortable, soft, lovin, fun and exploratory, indoor and/or outdoor, books and tea and relaxing and video games and movies, sharing caring and comfort, cats or animals in general??

but that also may just be me having limited relationship experience and thus that's what I desire in relationships in general... so yeah flawed maybe??

So just wondering what people think of this. And everything mentioned is like... stuff I've liked since I was in my early teens...

Serious question:

If I were to start HRT, and have grown breasts, and then later stop taking HRT and effectively revert back to a male presentation and being of body and such (testosterone and etc)...
What happens with the breast tissue and such? Does it go... back in? Does it get redistributed to other parts of the body? Would it act like a muscle that I no longer work on or something?

Thank you for helping me understand what I think would not be a situation I would be in, but something quite pressing on my mind otherwise.

I have seen some posts and stuff here and there that HRT is taken by needle or related processes.

I really dislike needles and poking myself like that, so I am just wondering if it's possible to go through HRT and transitioning fully with pills and the like?

Is there any benefit to taking the injection based methods?

Thank you

thinking about getting my facial hair waxed.... i'm finding the always present stubble kinda... dysphoriating? frustrating maybe... idk. like I just don't feel I'll pass with facial hair, or will be more male presenting with even the least bit of stubble...
Not really sure, like I try my best to shave close and with the grain, but it's never enough. and with the grain is HARD to do cleanly without causing infection or ingrown hairs, bah

thoughts?

Seeking advice, how do I deal with getting deadnamed/misgendered during the Xmas party? I'm not sure that I am brave enough to actually correct people, but it feels really bad

Is there a word to differentiate between "I embrace my assigned #gender as part of my identity" type of cis people and "Gender is a foreign concept and I accept whatever gender people assign" type of cis people? #asktransgender

Okay, I'm a little afraid to ask, but I do still have time to do some shopping

What can I wear to a funeral that
1) doesn't overly call attention to myself,
2) conveys that I am somber, and
3) doesn't read as masculine

I don't have anything in my wardrobe that fits that bill. The closest I have are some gray hand-me-down khakis and a men's polo with no buttons (and therefore feels feminine to me, for some reason)

*sigh*

Okay, I can put this off no longer. My fellow #trans girlies, please give me your advice on #VoiceTraining. Anything at all would be appreciated, no matter how trivial

The three biggest things, I think, are:

* what resources/videos would you recommend I look at?
* how can I gameify this, or do some other habit-forming trick?
* how do I listen to my own voice without dying inside?

Thank you! Boosts appreciated

Hey #transgender fediverse! Do you have terms that you prefer to use to refer broadly to transition related surgeries? I'm trying to help some corporate healthcare benefits folks come up with better terminology than *gulp* "gender reassignment surgery," especially when the benefits we're discussing cover a wide range of procedures. #AskTransgender #PleaseBoost
