3·21 hours agoThere are some qualities that will probably be perceived as more masculine, but it sounds good!
I’m hearing what some people call brassiness or buzziness, which can be targeted in voice training with a quotient slide exercise.
If you’d like to go a step further and work on vocal fry in general, the gee-heh exercise can help with that.

4·22 hours agoIf you have voice dysphoria, yes.
It’s really important for it to be seasoned well with salt, but I also enjoy it plain.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I think the biggest disservice that I received from my US Public School education was being taught that the civil rights movement was something from the past.

Sorry to be confusing; I have decided on a full vaginoplasty but have not yet had the surgery.
Tap for spoiler
I am going for a peritoneal flap vaginoplasty. As far as I know, the only type of VP that can reliably self lubricate would be where they take tissue from the inside of your mouth, though that has the obvious drawback of limited material to work with. Among other things, what I like most about the peritoneal flap is that loss of depth is less of a concern. (Though dilation is still required)
These are all really good thoughts, and I encourage you to take all the time you need to process your decision. Sexual topics ahead:

I found that on the less frequent occasions now where I do masturbate, there is both less dysphoria and more pleasure from stimulating the glans and surrounding area as though it was my clitoris. I had already wanted a vaginoplasty, but this solidified my decision. Though I will add I personally don’t enjoy topping because of dysphoria, and also have too much sensitivity now for it to be enjoyable.
I was considering just doing an orchiectomy for a long time before settling on a full vaginoplasty. It’s perfectly valid to do just the orchi, or nothing at all.
Erections will become more difficult, if that is important to you. Medications can help.
Dating wise I can’t speak to super well, but I haven’t personally met anyone who was into balls really. It might be a topic of conversation, but there’s probably people who wouldn’t even notice they are gone.
Looks like Eric Swalwell to me. Also that’s the name on the heart rate monitor.
Katy Perry in the background. Not sure about the woman on the right.
But yeah, bad AI slop I agree.
It’s a bit of a stereotype, but not as common as you might think. Those types of relationships have advantages similar to people who date someone similar to them, whether that is race, religion, culture, etc.
You’ll probably have more in common to start out, and you don’t need to explain being trans to your partner.
Damn, that’s bullshit. Anyone have another outlet they recommend? I have always liked AP for its general lack of opinionated pieces, and mostly reliable information.
For the last time, he isn’t a zombie. He’s a lich.
While not perfect, the concept wardrobe has a lot of helpful information to get you started for what types of clothes you can try. I linked to the inverted triangle body type, but the bottom of the page has links to other shapes as well!
I have solid C cups after 1 year, hoping to close the gap with my family members after starting prog soon.

3·22 days agoI haven’t found many TV shows or movies that brought me trans joy, but I have enjoyed a lot of webcomics and such. One movie I really connected with was K Pop Demon Hunters.
If you are the type to read webcomics, a couple that I really enjoyed are “Rain” and “I Want to be a Cute Anime Girl”

18·29 days agoThat would be good, but unfortunately the opposite was true.
I let perfect be the enemy of good for way too long, but now I have a simple routine that works for me.
Daily AM/PM
- Vanicream cleanser
- Cetaphil moisturizer
(Moisturize a 3rd time after a shower if it’s in the middle of the day)
1-2 times / week
- Retinol (I forget what product exactly)
- Paula’s Choice bha exfoliator













Probably would include someone who says “I am a socialist.” Hence calling it the Mamdani act.
