Boymoding is sort of bad in that it makes it very hard to live a full life, like you can't completely function socially when you're pretending to be a guy all the time.

I don't function socially (in the real world) right now at all, to be honest. So, enduring that a little while longer wouldn't be a huge shift away from where I'm at currently. I have been trying to socialize in vrchat more though, which is great because I can be whatever I want physically and I can also limit my socializing exclusively to pro-trans spaces.

Going full time is scary, but it's less scary when you don't have a beard to worry about and such.

I agree and hair removal is a huge focus of mine right now. Problem for me is that I have some grey hairs on my face, which makes that difficult to contain with IPL, though IPL would work for every other part of my body. Maybe a combo of HRT, waxing, IPL would work? And then electrolysis at some point?

Practicing voice helps a lot too if that's something you want to do.

Yes! I have already started getting into this a bit and plan to do some free virtual classes.

I also lost 40lbs on HRT by counting calories. It's totally doable. HRT will debatebly make losing weight harder, but, like, cis women lose weight all the time.

This gives me hope! Was there anything particularly difficult? I need to do a lot more research on this. Much thanks for the response/advice!

We have a fashion com, but it doesn't get many posts. I would love to read more of your thoughts about this.

So no one would mind if we took it over maybe? thonk-trans EDIT: To be clear, I didn't mean make it exclusive to trans people or something, but just to start posting more trans-related questions/threads there. I'm probably going to make a post there pretty soon on makeup stuffs.

We could take it over for sure however it might be hard to actually get other trans folks to pay attention to it? Like you just might not get a lot of replies. I'll go sub to it though

Maybe she could repost them here? Are reposts a thing on hexbear?

Was there anything particularly difficult?

Honestly no, it was pretty simple. I was very depressed before I started E, and started feeling a lot better after a couple of months. That gave me the motivation to finally lose all the weight. I basically just started eating 2 meals a day and no snacks, and it came off pretty fast.
