This is the first time trans people have been one of the pillars of a winning candidates platform. They spent $215 million on anti trans ads specifically, or 40% of their entire marketing budget. You don't invest that amount of resources into dehumanizing a minority without having dire intentions. Trans people have been discriminated against before, but not like this.

They don't need the military. The police have already been militarized and have zero issue using violence against the populace as has been demonstrated time and time again.

Also respectfully, as a vet, the military is not homogenous and Trump will absolutely find the people in the military that will listen to him and put them in charge

My apologies, I edited it. Let me know if I need to edit it further

I'd also add that it's okay if your testosterone is outside of cis women's range as long as your estrogen is higher. I was extremely worried that I was ruining my transition, but it really didn't and I still made excellent progress despite it. Certainly do all that you can to get it lower, but in the mean time don't fret too much if it is.

Edit: Also if you're on tablets, you can increase their testosterone suppression by evenly dividing them throughout the day as much as reasonably possible.

Okay but seriously is there a way to make this happen less

In b4 they artificially lengthen load times for more ads

I know this isn't what you asked for but anecdotally my VA experience has been light years ahead of dealing with private healthcare and that's excluding costs.

One thing that might help is when I was doubting the name I chose, I would say out loud, multiple times for a few days, "Hello, my name is ******." Every name I've tried so far besides the one I chose has felt off doing that. I don't know if it will help, but it did for me. Good luck!

I've learned countless things from reddit, from science facts, to breaking news events and novel solutions for my work. I specifically would like to list how reddit changed the course of my life.

I had always been agnostic and fairly oblivious to the injustices in our world, not really concerned about politics. Seeing how much needless hurt exists out there sent me about as far left as you can go and I've been that way ever since. Combine that with finding the Epicurean problem of evil there and now I'm also atheist.

As time went on I saw a few cheating stories and common signs to watch for. These signs started popping up with my ex and sure enough she was cheating. That ended the relationship.

The last way it absolutely changed the course of my life was I ran across a video by a trans man coming to terms with his masculinity and him describing his feelings that lead him to transitioning. I realized I experienced the exact same feelings he did growing up and that I'm actually trans.
