22 years ago today, I tried to come out to my dad for the first time. Here's a thread with that story, and the story of when I actually came out and transitioned years later, with the help of downhill skateboarding and king gizzard and the lizard wizard.

@BennieDotGay I'm 100% sure my dad is an egg. The way he's described how he doesn't identify with his reflection as he's shaving mirrors my dysphoria when I was repressing things. He's even said he doesn't feel paternal and is almost more maternal and I started calling him mom 2 after that

@rejectHisDesign @gl00m3sp4wn It's possible, but I've never heard of someone having to get their E levels tested before surgery. If I had a surgery where they required that and tested, I would just continue taking it and then say that I had stopped and that I must just have very high E if they tested it.

@normoboy @BennieDotGay I repressed my dysphoria a lot and was numb to it, but it still manifested as dissociation. When I would see myself in the mirror, it didn't actually feel like it was my face or my body. Sort of like if you had no idea what you looked like and then saw your reflection one day 1/.

on July 24 2021. I came out on a video call with my family and read them a letter saying all of the above, and telling them my name. It has been a wild ride ever since, but I have lived more in the last 3 years than I did in my first 31 and only wish that I had done it sooner.

@eschadiol i'm still looking for articles on it but it seems that nicotine interferes with the aromatase inhibitors that convert T into E, and in general estrogen can cause nicotine to feel more rewarding for your brain. my understanding was that it inhibits metabolism of E in all cases

how it would just completely implode the life I had built for myself. Then on Dec 10 2021, King Gizzard released the video for "If Not Now, Then When?", which I could only think about in the context of transition. At 31, I had lived longer than I wanted
