Dorky gender terms 

I've seen a lot of cute nicknames for HRT, but a lot of them seem to focus on the pills. I'm doing E injections myself, and this morning I came up with some dumb names for it.

"TF serum" = Trans-Femme -or- Transformation. (Estrogen)

"TM serum" = Trans-Masculine -or- Transmogrify. (Testosterone)

@emanate I think my favorite lately is @Soreth's "Anti-cistamine."

@literorrery @Soreth That one's good too, I'm just personally less fond of defining something by negation.
(Even if, yes, sometimes I refer to myself as not-male. I'm not perfectly consistent.) :-)

@emanate @Soreth Given it's a parody of "anti-histamine," which is a well-known class of drug including Benadryl, I wouldn't say it's "defined by negation," but that may just be me and my weird head. =n.n=

(( And hoo boy is my head weird. ))

@literorrery Fair enough. It's okay, I understand how your head works I think. Mostly. Usually. :-)

@literorrery @emanate Not originally mine, but I have no memory of where I picked it up!
