Not a gotcha at all. It shows that it is a reasonable rule if the premises behind it are true.

The fact that state, local, or district lawmakers write laws that don't do that shows that their motivations are not fairness, but transphobia alone.

Not just in California. Every state has elections now. Make sure to vote. Non-federal election years have significantly lower turnout than most. It doesn't take many votes to swing a municipal election. Get out there.

Breasts. I didn't think I wanted them, in fact I was a bit apprehensive about the possibility. But now that I've been on HRT for a while, and grew a pair yes! I love boobs more please!!!

Men achieve erections while unconscious regularly. Its part of the sleep cycle. Regular maintainace, keeps things functional for when needed. That's why morning wood is a thing.

HRT stopped this for me, which is wonderful. Having a massive erection ruins a girl's day right from the very beginning.

The people writing these laws don't even know that trans men exist. There is no logic beyond it. Most anti-trans sports bans just go with the birth certificate because that targets transfems, and doesn't take further thought.

If their goal was fairness, and they genuinely believed that being trans gives an unfair advantage at every sport, they would make the men's division open to all, and the women's division only allow cis women under the strictest possible definition. But they don't do that. They are transphobes. That's their only motivation.

In a sensible country, the government would continue to spend at the levels of the previous budget in the event of a delay in negotiating the renewed budget. It makes no sense. There are no benefits. Please do what you did in 1814 again we need it.

If your income does not have withholdings you are required to make payments quarterly. If you owe above a certain amount when filing your tax returns you have to pay a penalty.

You can write exempt on the withholding form to stop your employer from withholding, but the forms are very clear that it is only to be done if you owe no tax. Unless you earn less than $16k or whatever the standard deduction is for you, it would be unwise to not make advanced tax payments.

You can file your forms differently to avoid paying the feds, or delaying those payments, but you do so at personal risk.

Don't respect the wishes of the female character, instead respect the wishes of the, presumed to be, male writer. I see you.

I have been on HRT for a little over two months. I am taking sprio and sublingual estradiol.

These treatments have pretty much cured my depression, but otherwise I feel pretty much the same. I kind of expected estrogen to feel actively different most of the time, but so far that doesn't seem to be the case.

However, today I felt my nerves for the first time on HRT, and it felt very different. I get stage fright on occasion. This time wasn't worse or anything, but it felt so very different. Like the nerves were in my body instead of my head.

Has anyone else had similar experiences with performance anxiety before and after HRT? I'd also love to know if are other experiences that feel distinctly different that I can look forward to.

Thx in advance. Love you all <3
