i have got to actually work on transing my gender instead of just being sad about it
question: what's a 100% cis man reason to shave off all my arm hair? i want to do it but if I do, my coworkers will likely notice and I'd like to have a prepared answer for that
Cis people are oblivious. I've shaved my arms multiple times, and nobody has noticed.
When I was in a kickboxing gym, I would shave my legs. These are people who had seen my hairy ass legs. Nobody said anything or even noticed.
If they did hypothetically notice, I'd just be like, "oh yeah, I don't really have leg hair" and they would be like, "but I've seen it," and I'd just say "nah, you must be confused. I've never had it" lol. It's okay to gaslight the cissies
But if you want an excuse... You have a skin condition and the lotion you use to treat it requires you shave
Did have one time I went to work with one hand painted pink several months ago. Only saw a couple people, but neither said anything. Nor did anyone say anything about my arms being saved that week IIRC. One person did mention my beard being gone though. I still worry about people saying something, so I barely even trim my arms. OTOH, after I trimmed my chest hair, my step-mom asked me about it but that might just be because she already suspected I am trans and was probably trying to ask about that indirectly.
Also, who knows how many people notice stuff like that and just don't say anything.
This is probably it. But it's good enough for me.
My friends are so nice that they don't say anything. Wish they would ask me about it more frankly lol.
It's like "so you're just not gonna mention I'm wearing a blouse, huh?" Good reaction overall tho
You're a swimmer.
That's the best I have.
Wear sleeves? Or shrug?
You burned off some of your arm hair when messing with fire in some way and wanted everything to look even, so you shaved it.
The one time this actually happened to me. Use your arm to show someone that waxing doesn't hurt and then proceed to shave the rest because fuck it.
Or just say that you did it on a whim because your friend did it and you wondered what it was like.
