What's the point of T if...

So true Alessandro, my thoughts, to get rid on my red tide every month would be the greatest.  Then having the correct voice would make talking with others so much easier.  And having the correct contours on your body to be a true guy.

ok i understand the sentiment and also what you were trying to say, but the way you said it was just DUMB. you're telling me that any man with a curve in his waist or wider than average hips is fake, despite him (sometimes) having not only a penis and testicles, but most importantly a male gender identity.

anyone who says they are a man or identifies as male is a man/male despite whatever shape their torso is. a man is a man if he says so, even if he has webbed duck feet and purple skin. you, as a trans* person, of all people should know that.

Hang in there, I feel your pain. It's aggravating having to stick yourself in the thigh with a long ass needle 2-4 times a month for months and to not see results you're expecting.

I'm 5 months and 3 weeks on T and I pass 50/50. Recently I've started passing 100% on the phone. Hopefully by a year, I'll start passing 100%. Even if I still don't pass, I'll keep taking T because it just feels right and it'll happen eventually... :3

Yeah, it's very aggravating. I just can't wait to grow facial hair sometimes, cause I know that will help me pass better.
That's great your passing 100% on the phone. I feel I'm passing 50/50 too. It really does depend on the person.

Maybe you should consider going to weekly instead of bi-weekly ... it should help keep your levels ... well ... consistent.  I can't imagine doing bi-weekly ... I'm a miserable jerkoff the day before I'm do ... and I'm on weekly.

I like getting it done every other week b/c I'm terrified of needles and it gives me a break of not having to get nervous about getting my shot.
