Sorry, not Sorry. Happy that I could share the experience.

It has a very similar effect on me. Since I read it, I actually started doing a light skincare routine. And putting effort in my outfits.

I did feel like some kinda detective halfway through.

apparently the local lesbian and gay organisations are full of conservative boomers. Which is also a vibe. My guess is that the entire lgbt+ youth is organised in these loose groups.

I managed to meet some local trans-ppl. I just had to go to one event, talk to the guy who seemed like an organizer, out myself to him. Get a number for a telegram account from him, write to that account and introduce myself,and then get invited to a weekly get together that's organized over whatsapp.

They were very nice, and I am happy I put in the effort. One is even looking for a roommate. One of the better things to happen to me recently.

Also: is that the normal ammount of effort required, or is this place just special?

I was(still am) also excited. I did a lot of research on face shapes and stuff, but in practice I just didn't think any looked good on me. So next time I'll take a friend who can give a second, more neutral opinion.

Tried buying new glasses today, and the store assistant, when I ask her for help, sends me to the mens section. I do not have new glasses.

Yeah, homelessnes is even less fun that transphobia, I think.

I hobestly didn't think that it would be that big of a problem, and I don't know, there is a fascist presence. I just wsnted to preempt having a horrible time with flatmates, by weeding morons out beforehand. I didn't expect that people were that averse to living with trans people. Like, it's half a paragraph.

It is almost impossible to find a place to live as a transwoman around here it seems. I write to the places that explicity advertise themselves as "LGBTQ+ friendly" and get consitently ghosted.

Before, when I was an Egg, I would always get replies, my message is the same,excwpt for half a paragraph about me being trans, that I added.

Maybe I will have to boymode to avoid homlessnes.

Yeah, and that can take years, it's a really big commitment.

Well, thanks to transfemschîence I know how to get my values up at least.

I kind of feel like dyed hair would be cool, but my hair is also something I put a lot of work in, and I don't want to replace my working haircare routine, or damage my hair.
