Hey folks! Last thread hit 100 pages. Let's spark up a new one of these, eh?
Hi! My name is Erin. I'm a trans woman and am... 7 months in on HRT. It's been a hell of a ride so far! I have a wife and two kids and they are all fuckin rad forever and I love them lots.
This thread is designed to be a safe space where we can discuss stuff, seek input, provide advice, vent a little, and generally try and polish up our own individual stars so we shine as brightly as possible in the often times dark and uncaring world around us.
You are here. You matter. You are loved. And you are worthy of all the best the world can offer.
Welcome.
PS - If you've got some thoughts you want to air out or want input or just a person to shut up and listen, hit up my inbox. I keep weird hours and can't promise I'm always online but I'll get back to you!
Hi I am nonbinary and my therapist has me on a schedule of doing chores for an hour and then rewarding myself. Classical conditioning I guess! I'm apparently featuring in her class now.
Anyway yesterday I rewarded myself with some new makeup and I thought I'd share!
This will probably feature at Pride next weekend.
Edit: added a pic that better shows it with lighting.

Thanks! I have a wig I can practice on but my hair isn't long enough to do a self braid with my current skill level (0).
Gonna try and put it on an acorn squash and look up some tutorials!
Recent development in my life led me to question myself on my sexual orientation.
Uncomfortable. I thought I was ace before and now i'm not so sure.
Hey there's nothing wrong with that changing! Just follow your nose heart and be true to you. I wish you the best of luck in your self discovery! We are always here if you want to air out thoughts, or you can hit folks up in PMs.

Without giving too much deets cause it's very personal developments, I think I might be closer to demisexuality than asexuality, if i'm not just straight up het with weird issues with sex.
And, like, I know it's silly, but I kind of fear being cishet. Maybe it's because i internalized my asexuality a lot without really challenging it? Maybe it's because for much of my life, I've seen myself as different?
Anyway, that's what i'm struggling with right now.
Hi I'm Cassie, a trans woman who is now almost 2 months on hrt. I am amazed by how is happening all ready. I normally lurk here but am trying to participate more and work through those anxieties. And what better way to do it than in this group of awesome people.
After growing out my hair for a year and ignoring the shapeless poof on my head I finally went for a trim and style. I am so amazed by having straightened hair with some sort of shape it has prompted me to do something I don't think I have ever done.
Take selfies!

Dropping in, per usual - bi dude, out to one person at my new job (my trainer, who was confused about how bisexuality worked but after explaining/opening up about how it effects me was willing to listen) - and all of y'all are great and deserving of happiness.

Apparently I need to learn the how to use a flat iron and I still have no idea how she got my hair lie flat. I’m not quite as curly as you are Erin but very wavy and course. Whatever she did when she did my hair is some kind of magic. The only real trick I think I picked up is to get clips to hold the upper layers of hair up and out of the way while starting to flat iron from the bottom inner part.
There are so many things to learn how to do. I need to keep surrounding myself with people who are willing to share their knowledge.

speaking of, I need to find myself some infosponging cultures to sponge up info on Asexuality. I think I did it the wrong way at first, I started following an Ace blogger on tumblr but, like...... they blog a lot of anti-ace stuff.
As in, debunking it, not, like, promoting it. But still, being reminded nearly daily that out there, there's people that hate me and everything i stand for because I'm (probably) ace did not help my mood that much.

Aw jeez yeah that definitely sounds like a mixed bag. If you find a good resource can you share with the class? I don't know as much about the letters that aren't mine, and want to broaden my horizons.

I will once I stop being terrified of finding myself, and manage to actually find some ace-positive stuff.
I was suggested a Discord servercalled "FuckYeahAsexual" but i never post there yet.

Hi. I'm a bi lady in a hetero marriage with a 19 month old daughter.
I struggle with self esteem and body issues, but most of they is being a fat whale and not sexuality related.
hello, new thread!
i lurk here and very occasionally post!
i'm not fond of gender and i enjoy sexuality.
i don't really think any labels are perfect, but bisexual has almost always worked for me!
i've been thinking a lot lately about how to describe my gender, if i have one.
