    What you want to do is just find a transmasc person and then trade all of your blood with them regularly so you get their hormones and they get yours

    I’m personally gonna get an orchiectomy as soon as I can (after reaching 6 months on e). I wanted biological children, but I’m giving that up to remove the possibility of ever being on testosterone again. I’ll need lower doses of e this way, allowing supplies to last longer in the worst case scenarios. Injectable e is already susceptible to supply chain issues from the vial to the needles, while other types of e will almost always be available for other reasons.

      That does sound like a good option. I 100% know I don’t want kids, and I’m pretty sure this is my plan in the future.

    This is the most important arming trans women of our lives. It is vital that you exercise your right to arm trans women. Your grandfather fought in WW2 to secure this right

    I can’t, I barely have any androgens at all (only small levels of testosterone and estrogen in equal parts), that’s probably a bad thing and I probably should be taking hormones of some kind but I’d prefer my body not be masculine or feminized, and I’m also too lazy to get them prescribed. I mean it’s worked out well enough for me for the past 20 or so years so it’ll probably be fine, and if it isn’t oh well I guess.
