This is going to sound funny, but has anyone else gone 'limp wristed' since HRT?

I do this...A LOT xD

I speak with my hands most of the time, even before transitioning, constantly flailing them around wildly like I am terrified that somebody will stop looking at me or get bored or wander off.

But I have noticed a tendency to have far looser wrists now, it just feels more natural. The previous pointed jabbing or snapping motions of my talking hand gestures have changed to much more flowing and smooth ones.

Is it a result of the HRT?...I don't really know...I did spend a great deal of time researching female body language and applying it to myself at the beginning of my transition...but that was more to do with walking and standing etc, not hand gestures or wrist positions.

All I know is certain female gesture like:



Feel strangely comforting and natural now, where it never did before o.O
