      Yeah I’d totally push a magic button but I’m also comfortable in the body I was born in… well aside from my health issues but that’s just another reason I wouldn’t want to deal with “the hassle” as you put it. I’m content to be my AMAB masc presenting enby self.

        I was in your shoes about 9 months ago. Just celebrated six months on hrt. And boy howdie did “comfortable in my body” turn to “holy shit how did I live like that before???”

          Tale as old as time.

          “I’m cool with being a guy, I only think about being a girl sometimes I guess. It would be interesting though…”

          “Heh, I look nice with this Snapchat filter… I kinda wonder how I’d look in some girl’s clothes?”

          “Wow… I think really like how I look. But like, I’m okay with looking like a guy in public. I just crossdress for fun. Though… What if I didn’t have to ‘go back’”?

          I’ve not even hit 3 months of HRT and I’m utterly astonished at how much more I give a shit about myself overall.

            Yisss this is the power of E. Only downside for me was/is that because of the missing obvious disphoria I sometimes feel like an impostor. But I am dealing with it :]

          That’s great, I’m happy for you! I do not feel I would be happier on hrt. It’s not right for my personal health journey. But I appreciate your point of view.
