hm, do you know anyone who would be willing to do your makeup for you?
I know you can always go pay someone to do that for you (e.g. in the U.S. you can go to a Sephora to get a make-over), but sometimes girlfriends are willing to do makeup for fun, if I were there I would totally do your makeup for you 😊
either way I'm sorry to hear about your fusiform gyrus - do you know why it's shot? That doesn't sound great 🫠
I’ve actually survived two strokes and walk with a cane. The right half of my body is generally a mess, but my rehab has done well for me. At least I can walk!
Also, insofar about me from the neck down, I’m intensely sex-repulsed and have zero breast matter going on. I use slight padding to give gentle curves there, but nothing major. So showing chest generally can’t happen with me looking even more masculine.
Honestly, I may as well keep playing the hand I’ve been dealt, because there’s not many other options for me.
And really, I don’t have any cis people I talk to without a cash register within touching distance.
Two strokes, trans, and yet still pushing forward against the shit shoveled your way. You are objectively kicking ass despite the hand dealt & that needs to be said.
Some great tips above that I won't try to clumsily add to, but you have my best wishes. I hope you get to where you want to be.
for real, she's crushing it - I am amazed 🤩
