A friend of mine also uses a henson razor, and I got to try it out (with my own blade) a little while ago. Miles better than a cheap safety razor, but not really better than the cheap dollar store venus razors I normally use. Not sure if it’s simply because I wasn’t used to it or not tho.
First off, I didn’t see anyone link the gender dysphoria bible in the comments, and it was absolutely massive for me to read. Linkie
As someone who just cracked her egg a few months ago, I can tell you talking to my wife was the biggest aid for me to figure out what I wanted. A lot of your experience aligns pretty closely to mine, so you’re not alone there. My wife also thought she was bi, but without telling me, determined she was straight because only male me turned her on, but after I worked out that I was trans, she had to rethink her own sexuality and realized she’s actually demi, because the idea of me as a woman still turns her on and nobody else does. I won’t lie, it was a rough week for us, especially seeing as we’re coming up on 10 years being together, and we’re eachother’s only adult relationship, so the possibility of our marriage ending was terrifying, and seemed like it might happen. Coming out was the most anxiety enducing experience of my 31 years on this planet, but I would do it again in an instant if I had to.
Miraculously, my wife and I wear the same size clothes despite a full foot difference in height, so she got me to try her clothes, which really helped cement in my mind that I wanted to dress feminine.
I’m not on e yet, just spiro, so no boob as of yet 😭 so I went online and got silicone breast forms and I’ll tell you, going from no boobs to needing a bra to support D’s (which, if my mom and sister are any indication, I should end up in that realm🤞) without the slow ramp up in weight to strengthen the muscles you use regularly to hold youself upright has been rough. I wanted my bra off pretty regularly, but I can’t take it off without going back to no boobs. Less of a hug and more like a waiter for me lol. You have to have the awkward small talk, but they bring you food!
I got silicone breast prosthetics a few weeks ago, and at this point, I only take them off to shower and get changed. I wore them to work (trades) for the first time this week. They make for a sizeable amd definitely noticeable difference, but people either didn’t notice it, or asked if I felt better with them, which I 100% do. Right now, I’m sitting in my car, inexplicably exhausted, getting really annoyed by how they are either pulling on my bra straps or on my chest and feeling glad I can still take my boobs off when I get home 😆
I’m pretty sure I’m good on that front lol
I was this close 🤏 to going out to costco tonight tucked in my gaff and a pair of my wife’s bike shorts, but I was too nervous about a ball popping out and being rather obvious and chickened out
If you want the feminine figure fast, I got shapewear with hip pads and silicone breast forms because I’m an impatient little freak. 😜 The hip pads definitely help with a curvier shape and support a tuck really well, and I have found breast forms make my incredibly broad shoulders basically a non issue. If those are things that make you experience dysphoria, those are options if you need a crutch.
