That makes more sense. 👍 Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I've never touched a man's face....or anyone's face, so I wouldn't know. lol Even immediately after shaving, you can feel some roughness like fine grit sandpaper if you go 'against the grain'. If you move a finger from top to bottom, if feels smooth, but not so much if you do it the opposite way. I'm a little lucky, mine is always somewhat soft and with age, has tunred almost white. I don't know the exact 'brightness' because I almost obsessive-compulsiive about shaving every day whether I need it or not. I'd be terrified to see a week's growth-- I'd feel totally incongruous. I imagine it works somewhat opposite if you're on the other side of the coin. On a totally unrelated note, for some reason my bright blonde/almost whitish hair on my head has kept growing longer before it falls out over the last year. Where I could never get it longer than shoulder length, I now have hair down to almost the middle of my back. It's baby fine, but it is haning in there longer than it used to. It's almost 15 years since my last serious haircut when it had to be cut for cranial surgery. I can do pony tails again! Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if you've already tried this or if it works for everyone but I recently started using men's shampoo just to see if there's any difference and now my hair feels "more rough" or maybe drier, I guess.

I don't want a beard, but I think it would be cool if I had the ability to grow one. Would be nice to just wear it if I wanted to sometimes like a fashion accessory without other people looking at me funny. To be honest I wish I could shape shift to appear how I need to in certain situations. Life would be a whole lot easier that way. You can still grow a beard. There was some thread that I was talking about some hair growth product with someone. You don't have to be on T for it to work. So you can use it on your chin and cheeks and there you have a beard.

My moment of the week is that I took my co-worker's laptop home to perform some troubleshooting for something that wasn't working. I've previously said that she was cishet to the max. I was having trouble connecting her laptop to our internet, which I've said is called "NoCissies". I thought there was an irony in that. But then I went early to my teaching job to use their wifi but it didn't work either. So now I can't fix the issue because I don't even have connection to the internet.

Fluffy Femme Guy Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 I've had a funny one at work where my co-workers noticed my decorative hairclip that I had been wearing to work for some time. I have floofy/curly hair so it probably disguises it a bit. One of them asked 'Did a girl give that to you?', I answered 'Yes', but I was secretly referring to myself. They were nice about it and everything's cool. It was more amusing to me than anything. Link to post Share on other sites

nerdperson777 Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Yesterday I was in class with the agender person and a presumed cis guy. Another teacher came in for a bit. The instructor for this class asked about her back issues, since she was probably the oldest teacher there, in her 40s, other than the owner of the place. The instructor said that there are three strong men here that could help you. The agender person said, "well 2 men and 1 enby". I also chimed in but I may not have been heard, "oh yeah, two (enbies)". So there was actually only one guy taking class. Link to post Share on other sites

I had that happen with a friend once. Some high school friends decided to eat at an all-you-can-eat place next to my house. I didn't know that I had an eye doctor appointment across the street around that time so I said that I would be a little late possibly. Whoever said the number of people thought it was better to not include me and try to add me in later. So I got there while they were waiting, but I just watched them go in without me because you can't just add one, especially at a popular place like that. I ended up eating with a trans friend and then I was offered to at least have some dessert with them. I asked the friend if she wanted to have dessert and meet my friends, who I wasn't out to. She had long hair at the time but decided to keep her hair short later, maybe because she was afraid of being out. So one of those high school friends ended up saying, "whoa, that's a tall girl!" But she has a really deep voice so the high school friend said afterwards, "oh you're a guy" or something. I guess she got to feel good for a split second. Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Blue Ray Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 With Snapchat's gender filters, I've been using them for fun. Before I got a haircut (my hair is already short but it was slowly growing out), the female filter had little effect on me because I'm pre-T. Just a couple of days ago, I tried the female filter again and this time the changes were drastic. Not a big thing, I know, but sometimes it's the small things that keep you going.
