For my mega I wanted to celebrate the arrival of October. The leaves are changing and will fill the air with the most wonderful scents and the air is cool and crisp. Grab a rich and warming bowl of stew or soup, a book or a craft, a warm blanket, and get cozy with me <3

The photo is one I recently took, not my best work but I wanted something original and on theme but not doxxing

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.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

    Did my first estrogen injection! (CW NSFW/Sex)

    I had given advanced consent to my girlfriend to inject me any time she felt was good this weekend. I had my hands cuffed to the headboard and my ankles to the front board. Just one attachment to each so long rather than spreadeagle.

    Our intimate partner was teasing me whilst I was wearing one of my favorite dresses and looked very cute. My girlfriend came over and told me to roll over (which i could in the restraints), lifted up the skirt of the dress and did it then and there. Was so hot.

    I love being trans.

    It really is a blessing.

    Twice a day I give a prayer of thanks to Inanna for the refuge she gives, the joys this has brought, and the bonds I have forged.

    Trans is such a wonderful thing to be.

    Gender affirming care appointment went well. Followup is next week and I should get esgrogen then. My understanding is that they’ll let me pick between pills, patches, and injections unless my blood work shows a reason to prefer one over the others. Any recommendations?

      Injections are reliable, very easily allow you to do monotherapy without antiandrogens if you dose high enough (which is theoretically possible with any form of estradiol, but easiest with injections) and if you have no problem with poking yourself a little bit they are by far the most convenient. I’ve switched from gel one and a half years ago and never looked back. Only having to dose once a week (enanthate) or twice a week (valerate) is something i appreciate a lot.

      Pills have the downside that a lot of the estradiol is metabolized to estron (especially if you don’t take them sublingually), which is less effective and can be hard on the liver, especially if you need to take a lot of them to get to good E2 levels (which applies to a lot of people). Pills also have the shortest half-life, meaning that most people need to dose 3x a day.

      Patches can be finnicky to use and they are often dosed really low, but i don’t know much about them because the most common transdermal route around these parts is gel.

      Pills can have some side-effects, patches are a bit inconvenient, gotta keep it on your skin and all, but can work great. Injections are simple and you only need to do it once a week

    Feeling sad today, 2 days ago I had a kind of fight with my mom, she keeps defending Flávio Bolsonaro and praying that Lula loses, not matter how much I tell her that Flávio winning will be really bad, she won’t listen. She never does, sometimes it feels like she doubts everything I say, it sucks. And it’s been what, a month since I came out to her by now? And she still misgenders me… it’s starting to get really tiring. I couldn’t even get myself to shave today, ugh.

    I’m so drunk but I want to be a girl but I also want to be a boy but I don’t wanna be trans but I might be trans but being a girl is would be so much work and I don’t have the energy to even take care of myself
