I forgot that it’s my mega week so no big info dump this time. Instead I bring a question: how do you practice gender self-care? Do you have any activities or rituals that make you feel more comfortable in your gender? Painting my nails and taking care of my hair are the most consistent ones. These shouldn’t even be considered gendered activities by society, but I missed out on having long hair and painted nails when I was younger because of my assigned gender, so doing them now feels validating and gives me confidence.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

What excuse can I give to myself when I already know the unambiguous truth …
There’s too much conflicting statements out there so the ideal case is to choose the null hypothesis.
I don’t know what the null hypothesis is so I’m going to go with wanting to start prog to improve my emotional experience. But the parent issue lies like a guillotine above my head. All I need is one more year ahhhh. Then it’d all be fine!
Still one more year for you :meow-hug: how long on hrt? I thought you were already a good bit in
1 more year, but you’re here so it’s not too difficult.
16 months
Aw stop it, you’re making me blush.
God damn girl, 2 and a half years of boymoding on E. God speed o7
At some point it does become comical to grow boobs on purpose yet keep them secret.
I grow them for me, not others 🤷♀️
This is true, and also, it is really funny to exist as a “man” with an ever-increasing chest
Kinda funny me saying that given how I used to feel about that argument back in high school…
It is a little bit of a funny position to be in
Null for this would be WPATH recommendations, right?
Going by the principle of statistics, the actual null hypothesis would be to just take it at a randomly selected timing. But woath guidelines could be a decent prior (their conservative estimates notwithstanding).
