and people still they the differences between men and women are cultural.

>>8143886
>Everything is suddenly cute
HOLY SHIT THIS. I even subconsciously started reffering to things as cute in my internal monolog, sarcastically and sincerely. I think that just about everything is cute now.

>>8144001
I saw some adorable bird a couple weeks ago and just lost my breath, hands on cheeks and did a long aaaaaaaawww completely sincere. It just happened.

>>8144103
Yeah. Earlier today I saw a crow playing with a stick. I watched it for a while and when two ladies bassed by and chuckled at me I realized I was smiling from ear to ear and had moved right next to it without it flying away. I love crows.

I have way more dreams about guys than I would have thought
the hugging thing I totally experienced and it surprised me too

also just in general I act and think like a huge fag now which I probably could have seen coming but I didn't really think about beforehand, not that it really bothers me

>>8144248
Well I still don't act like a fag. I have a reputation of stoicism to maintain. But still. I definitely feel much more open about sharing my feelings.

>>8144259
>I have a reputation of stoicism to maintain
lol is this OP?
if you've only been on it a month my guess is that thats going to start to crumble away, not just the reputation but the desire to keep the reputation

before I'd never be caught dead wearing nail polish or looking/acting girly in public, now I literally just don't care, even around my very homophobic father (who knows nothing of my transition)

>tfw been a hug sponge since always

>>8144248
>act and think like a huge fag
>not that it bothers me
same
i used to really police my own behaviour and try not to act fem because it felt weird and bad but now i'm just comfortable with it

>>8144286
yup! its actually pretty damn awesome

>>8144281
I am op and a I'm too self conscious to be overtly feminine. I just want a quiet life, and to be a quiet girl. I don't need any drama or conflict.

Quickly learned my legs are actually better tilted for femwalk than straight guywalk. Recently tried doing that straight walk again and it felt like I was trying to walk after having shat myself or something.

This thread is so fucking cute. All of it.

>>8144898
We have become hug bugs.

Did yall ever want to hug before hrt, but couldn't because of shyness or because it wasn't accepted or other things holding you back? Is the want for physical contact completely new or did you have it before but didn't get it? I wonder if I got hrt would I be able to have hugs or would everything remain the same but I'd want it even more

Kira Yoshikage you son of a bitch changing your face again won't hide you

>>8145180
You'll soon embrace the hug of cold steel on your chest as you bench

>>8145166
I'll put it this way. I had almost no emotional needs about 1 month ago. A few days ago I drove over to my mom's place and gave her a hug and thanked her for raising me. When the estrogen hit, it hit hard. But I'm still fundamentally the same person as before. I have the same interests and desires. I just also want to cuddle 24/7, which was not something I wanted before.

What are you talking about I am Yoshioka Kaiba. I don't know of this Kira you speak of.

[muffled "sheer heart attack" in the distance"]

>>8145198
Thank you. I guess I don't have the need to travel and thank someone, so probably low emotional need then. Sounds like it'd be pretty bad then, if my needs get that much bigger but I don't change to be able to fulfill them
Arrgh I wish someone would just order me hrt and talk me into doing it

>>8145258
I waited 4 years to start. Don't be like me. Don't fence sit.

Is this still an "unexpected effects of HRT thread"?
I bumped into things a lot last week, whenever I just had to remember where something I had ducked under was to keep from hitting it.
I've heard E affects your sense of navigation. I mentioned it to my dad and he said, "Come to think of it, your mother bumps into things a lot, too." But I think I've adjusted now.

>bump into things with butt
I think it's growing.

Another one is I'm suddenly way more aware of how a lot of men are taller than me, and they feel really tall, like they're towering above me. Never had that before.

>>8145319
I feel that way with anyone tall. Even before hrt I wanted to have a tall bf/gf who could pick me up if they wanted to.

>>8145292
Im not sure what you're saying at all.

have you ever heard of the placebo effect ?

I used to like cute things and would prefer them, now its painful how cute they are, like physically painful. Also, I'm much more in tune with/able to process my emotions, I'm much more bouncy and bubbly, and I can simply be myself much easier where I wasn't able to before. Femenine things are much easier to do, without shame or any of that

>>8143886
>rock hard nails
Holy SHIT, iktf.

>>8145357
I thought that was awkwardly worded.
I was bending over and bumping my head on shelves as I stood up. I couldn't see the shelves as I was getting up, I just had to remember where they were. I seem to have gotten worse at that.

>>8145271
I'm already past 25, it's way too late for me. And don't know yet if I'm truly trans, hard to imagine oneself as a girl. I figure one could just do it and stop if one doesn't like it though. But would risk losing what I already have too, so scary. Having this little push from you may have been helpful though, thank you. Guess I should just do it, worst case I'll look like a feminine man and can stop

>>8145480
Do it, it's so much more than passing. Even if you're perma-boymode the hormones will likely make you feel better so you can lead a more fulfilling life than if you continued repressing.

>>8145166
Cognitive dissonance. Emotionally I crave physical contact but the reality is it hurts me somehow. I have nothing against hugs but I feel awkward in them. My emotions are an obstacle; they are counter-intuitive and needy while I am stoic and adaptable. So I would say the need is there but the mental headspace turns it into anguish.

>>8145605
Are you me?

Can this be the new tranny stereotype? Silent and wise on the outside, needy and romantic on the inside.

>>8145732
This. Its because of all the pain that no one seems to understand. Everything is cute now though as i chuckel inside

I've been on AA and E for a month and my emotions are the same as ever. I thought hormones would make it difficult to control my emotions. Delighted they have not thus far.
