      Blahaj Zone is the nicest online community I’ve ever visited, so it makes sense to make it my primary residence^^

      I’ll consider this to be the first part of my transition :P

      Although this is actually the second fediverse account I’ve migrated, to be precise. My old pixelfed profile still had the word guy in it

      • Oh wow, I guess congrats on the official start of your transition =P I’m going to congratulate myself on playing a small part in it too 😆

        Woof, somehow I’ve always avoided included words like “guy” in any username I’ve made, I suppose deep down I always knew I wasn’t cis (although the repeated questioning of it over pretty much my whole life should have been the biggest clue 😅)

          I’ve been oblivious about many things throughout my life, and even if the thought ever came up, I’d usually just forget about it not even five minutes later :')

          • Mood, it took me ages to recognise I was asexual too, I’d read about it and be like “damn, that really sounds like me, too bad I’m a cishet guy” and then forget about it again 😅 We should give ourselves a break though - it’s a marathon, not a sprint

                  We’ll get there eventually. But it’d be cool if our ministry of health would realize where the word ministry comes from, and act accordingly.

                  I do recognize that I’m already very privileged when it comes to healthcare in my country, but even here there are still some serious issues in certain fields.

                  However, one foot in front of the other, as you say. This year will be where an important new law comes into effect here, making it much easier and less dehumanizing to change ones legal gender and name.

                  The reactions to this law have been a great way to add new polititians to my Do Not Vote list, which is a welcome side effect :D

                  • If you don’t mind me asking which country are you in? I’m in the UK so it’s already pretty transphobic, which sucks, but we have a general election this year so we might at least get the extremely marginally less overtly transphobic Labour Party in, though I don’t expect they’ll make it any better. I should save money to either try and go private or do some DIYing but sadly big expenses keep coming up.

                    However, I did randomly decide to shave my arms last night and that feels pretty great =D
