Just gonna throw this out here: if you're taking voice training, you might want to switch to edibles. Smoking takes a heavy toll on your airways and does more harm than good. I miss it, but not as much as I love being a woman.
I do this too, I think it's part of Auditory Processing Disorder. But if girl pwetty? Suddenly my brain becomes an infodump singularity and I will remember the most minute detail about her. Thanks, brain!
If I blindly agreed with everyone, I probably would be dead, having killed myself from the lack of moral obligation and common decency this species seems to be deficient in. I'm only sticking around because I feel like this is the end of the Anthropocene and I want to witness it. Is that honest enough for ya?
You get a boycott, and you get a boycott... EVERYBODY GETS A BOYCOTT!!
The thing is that I'm losing products and services faster than I can blink. At this rate, I'm gonna just move up into the mountains and become a neurodivergent transfeminine recluse. Fine by me; always was.
You'd think with all of the Mar-a-Lago beauty treatment options that someone would help him blend that orange back so he doesn't look like he dove face first into a bag of Cheetos. Fucking clown.
Ugh, I fucking hate Christmas. I wish I could take a vacation on another planet during this season. It all starts with that pumpkin spice bullshit. The music, the decorations, the same old rampant consumerism that despite a shitty economy, people will still throw their credit under the bus just to make sure everyone has a Chinese-manufactured gift they don't want or didn't ask for... exhale
Respectfully, as an older trans woman, I've always felt that it's the style of clothes you wear and the subtle demure and grace you carry that makes you presentable as a woman. You won't just look the part, you will feel it. The looks you will get are of admiration and envy. They'll see you how a mortal sees a goddess. It's very powerful.
But if you're looking like you just stepped out of Hot Topic or the Harajuku district, plastered with makeup like a clown, you're gonna get forced acceptance, straight into the hugbox. Yeah, you're really cute and I want to snuggle with you, but I believe that this is one of the main stigmas that trans women are known for, hence my refusal to dress like that. I do have some fun pieces in that wheelhouse, but they're for parties or events, not everyday wear. Maybe hit up Macy's or Kohl's for starters and let it organically evolve from there.
What I'm saying is, just be careful how you present yourself. First impressions count.
When trans women go on GAHT/HRT, our bodies change a lot. I've lost considerable muscle mass and strength versus just over a year ago (it was very noticeable in the garden this year, oof). The lack of testosterone also changes your mental state and tones down the stereotypical male competitive nature. You literally become softer.
My personal opinion is that if you're on hormones for at least a few years, you've shown that you clearly want to play and shouldn't be disqualified, and at the very least be given a chance to participate. As far as I'm concerned, this entire thing is politically-charged and is about as interesting as acetaminophen and vaccines causing autism.
What you don't hear is trans men wanting to compete in men's sports. They need to have a voice too, as rare as it might be.
Haha damn! I remember seeing that on the daily mailers. I was busy getting the Adobe stuff like Photoshop and Illustrator, also QuarkXpress for page layout because fuck MS Word. Good times!
