Isn't gender both external and imposed on you at the same time though?

i did voice training long before i started T. My voice usually passed. Had a naturally low voice to begin with. The thing I was most afraid of was my voice i was okay with going to shit but luckily that didnt happen.
I've never heard of losing it entirely where you can't talk, but I have heard about times it has been greatly reduced in quality, tone, and range permanently. Usually this happens if you start on a very high dose of T without building up to it.
Yes...still on low dose. Just got my labs done for the first time in seven months, so with the results of that i can hopefully start the increase.
Maybe you're right...still expierencing culture shock
There's the nod down which is for men you dont know and the nod up for men you do know from my expierence
Ahhhhh
holy shit ive been here a month
Something funny (and not funny) that happened to me is that someone who did not know I was trans thought I'd be transphobic because (presumably) I'm from the south and shared with me all of their shitty opinions on trans people in private thinking I'd agree with them
It's interesting how both are oppressive in different ways
I mean it in the sense of being percieved as not-man, not nececarily trans.
I likely accidentally counted people twice or skipped someone, but regardless here's a general idea of the makeup of our population from the sample size of the post I made.
Also, it shortened transmasculine/feminine nonbinary on the graph.
I typed in the value for cis women as zero, and it didn't show up on the chart so keep that in mind.
I did see it and i think it's a really insightful reply. I hope to have some free time soon to digest all of these replies and respond thoughtfully. Been extremely busy with schoolwork. Thank you for your thoughtful response!
