Thanks! πI have a few more clothing items arriving today and tomorrow and I'm hoping to hang out with some of the LGBT group again later this week so I'll be FULLY girlmoding for a good chunk of at least one day this week!

Omg that is fantastic to hear!
Children aren't an option for us anyway (genetics, trauma, etc) , so that isn't a concern. At the risk of over sharing, my spouse has never had a good experience with sex until thet met me. A string bad exes due to being kicked out of the house meant triggering things, so they had basically "signed off on m*n" until they met me. Jokes on them! They've already signed off on them! So because I'm the first person they've been able to enjoy themselves with, they don't want to lose that, and neither do I. Plus I want them to be happy, and since I only feel dysphoria about it when it's not tucked away, I want to keep it.
You have no idea how much that makes me happy since it's something I've been concerned about. ππππππ
Omg I love their leggings, but they would never fit me.
I wish I grew up in a larger city with a larger, more accepting crowd, then I might have found myself sooner.
But no point dwelling on what I can't change and look forward to what I can!
Like voice training... Lol. I have always hated my deep voice.
I've briefly looked at what orchiectomy entails before, but from my understanding, if I go that route with hormones, I will not be able to use my equipment with my spouse, and we would both like to keep that ability.
Of course for now most of that is hypothetical without funding, but fingers crossed for the future! π
Yeah, I know a couple women who don't like talking about their current situation, so I try to be respectful of others boundaries.
I took a quick look at their page and I like what I see, and it's not much more than I was expecting to spend honestly.
In the morning I will have to go do some measurements, I am woefully neglecting my sleep...
Thanks for the response!
Who doesn't like having their Pro-State destroyed?
I love the skirt!
I just bought a skirt the other day and have been wearing it at every opportunity.
Sadly I have phobic roommates so I have to either change constantly or go about in my section of the house in my underwear until I need to venture out. One is much simpler than the other...
I'm still on the lookout for shoes, size 13s are hard to find!
Girl that looks great on you!
I've been stealing my spouse's clothing as well, lucky for me we have similar builds for some clothing! Unfortunately bras are not one of those things...
I wore a sports bra with padding today (nothing to fill it with except what is there because I'm fat lmao) and it was just a little too tight.
Not many places carry 42Bs though. I hate my broad shoulders π although if I lose enough weight, I might be able to go for the amazonian look.
Hey now, that's not fair.
its not always the same thing XP
Oof, I have been brushing my hair while dry basically the entire three years I have been growing it out. It is definitely a frizzy mess usually. Today it was almost manageable! I haven't been doing my new routine for very long.
I have very dry scalp, and issues with dandruff usually. My scalp tends to get a little itchy after 2-3 days, even with moisturizing shampoos.
I will skip the shampoo for a little bit and see how long it takes for dandruff or anything to appear.
Thanks for the tips!
totally stoked for you and your ΒΏwife?
We have still been using our old terms of husband/wife and mom/dad (the latter mostly by my wife, when speaking to our dogs since we do not have children) but haven't really had the discussion of whether we want to use other words.
I have been using "spouse" for the most part lately, as they have only in the past month or so settled on NB. They got super excited when their they/them pin got here from an Etsy store.
It's been quite the Rollercoaster of emotions today, thank you for the positive vibes π
The LGBT group sometimes organizes "takeover days" of the local city pool where everyone dresses in their gender-affirming clothing to have a pool day. I've been looking at swimwear because I really really wanna go but I don't want anything poking out, and the tucking swimwear I've found is expensive AF.
I wanna fast forward to wearing normal swimwearπ but for now I'll just deal with what I can. Even flared skirts have been a gamble as I'm still improving my methods.
Thanks for all the info, it's been really great asking people further along their journey about things.
