How painful it is depends a lot on the fit and heel height. I find them extremely easy to walk in until about 2-2.5" tall, then it gets exponentially harder from there. Ill-fitting heels are also awful because then your foot isn’t properly supported. Sometimes I have to say no to ones I like the look of a lot and should fit well on paper because they don’t actually. Wedges and chunky heels are also typically easier than pointed/stiletto type heels.

It’s possible to use inserts to help with fit as well, though I’ve never bothered until a pair I got recently. I love the look so much even though they’re 3.5" tall and the fit isn’t the best, I really wanna make it work so hoping inserts will save me.

Not all cis women have inner labia and imo your result looks pretty good.

As for the sensations in your original post, that’s really just how it is. It isn’t going to suddenly feel different because they’re the same nerve endings. You have to give yourself time for your brain to do a couple things, primarily stopping the internal mental remapping of sensations back to your old anatomy and instead perceiving them as part of your new. During my recovery, I had to reckon with and come to the realization that the sensations I feel are largely just the same sensations cis women feel. The difference is they don’t have the context for a different configuration that we do. Additionally, things will physically change a bit over time as healing continues and things settle. It took quite a while before the feeling of being constantly tucked went away for me, a common feeling early in recovery because of the way skin is being pulled and things need time to settle.

Try to embrace the arrangement as it is and trust that that is simply what women’s sensations are. In some ways, we actually have a bit of an advantage imo because you can most likely do a revision to move / reshape things especially in the clitorial area to your liking with a revision. My surgeon was specific that there are limits in what she can do visually in the original surgery and that things like inner labia are more doable in revision, which doesn’t necessarily even have to be in an operating room. I asked for and got significant changes to my clitoral hood and inner labia definition just in her office with local anesthetic, it took like 45 minutes.

Ah thanks, I never tried to embed an image before in a comment. I updated mine since I also swapped out the image earlier to show the full reference/context

Of course he isn’t, him being naked and blue and destroying the other person with a finger point is in reference to Dr Manhattan.

I’m not entirely sure but it might be a Watchmen reference.

Edit: now I’m sure. Referenced panels linked in another comment

Consider that people before transition are not necessarily any different from any other people. You can have very racist, transphobic, alt-right people secretly harboring trans feelings themselves. Sometimes people will turn to those spaces as a coping mechanism and then they become entrenched and invested in the communities. Just because they eventually finally accept their transness doesn’t mean they’re willing to let go of it entirely or the personality archetype they’ve developed as a part of it. If they leave it entirely just because they transitioned , they may not have another community they feel enough a part of to fall back on. Everyone needs and wants some sort of feeling of community even when it isn’t good for them. It can be very hard to break out of toxic spaces when it’s the only space you know and it’s practically defined you as a person, sometimes for most people’s adult lives

It looks to me like it’s making fun of the really bad brain worms that permeate the trans 4chan community. There’s a very specific type of brain wormed in-group jargon being made fun of here. The orange stick figure is saying they’ll never be orange but we can clearly see they’re just… orange. The brain worms are so bad that they believe even while being orange, they aren’t actually. The green stick figure, not being involved with the community or perspective of it, is a representation of the few people trying to break the brain worms within the community. The author knows exactly where the terms being parodied come from and wrote it for that audience

It’s the kind of thing that’s utterly incomprehensible to anyone who isn’t familiar with 4tran or tttt

I’m one of those people that basically never uses consumables in games because I never know when a good time to use them is. I really like the way expedition 33 does it instead because there’s no reward to hoarding them so I actually do use them. You only have a couple and they refresh every time you rest, plus you can also increase your max of each throughout the game.

It’s also worth noting that unless your temples are quite receded, it’s actually surprisingly common that cis women have sharp temple corners of their own. Dysphoria doesn’t always care about that though so it’s up to you how you feel about it in the end. I know plenty of trans girls that didn’t and still don’t give a fuck and look amazing (and pass, since that’s something they care about) and I definitely would have also passed just fine without it but my dysphoria just didn’t care and couldn’t accept it as it was.

Minoxidil can definitely give a lot of regrowth, especially when you’re on HRT so there’s a lot less DHT in your system to fuck with the regrowth effects of it. However, there are some drawbacks. A big one is that even topical minoxidil frequently causes increased body hair growth which is generally undesirable for trans women. It won’t turn you into a hurry werewolf overnight so you could do it, see how it works for you, then stop. Similarly due to the lack of DHT in your system, the consequences for going off it are significantly less than with a cis man.

I haven’t personally used minoxidil but that’s the information I’ve gathered over time from people I know and things I’ve read online.

I have, however, used finasteride and oh boy let me tell you I fuckin love it. I ended up getting hair transplants to fill in my temples anyway but I was seeing regrowth in the corners, just slower than what I wanted for my transition timeline. It was also helpful for some unfortunate density issues I had on my crown but the very best thing it did for me, or at least likely had a part in, was decreased body hair. I used to grow this wiry gross hair on my shoulders and it just stopped entirely after a few months on HRT and finasteride. I know HRT slows body hair growth over time but this was super fast so I generally attribute it to the finasteride.

Women are the best

Aww that’s right autocorrect, they are
