hrt, transmed discourse? idk
Sometimes I worry I'm medicalizing my transition by celebrating the day I started hormones over my birthday (same day and everything!). It's meaningful to me in a way my birthday isnt.
But for me its the first day I felt like all of this was real, and the day I started exploring things even more deeply. I've tried going off HRT, I wanna try SERMs. This isnt something important because its medical, this is something important because I'm taking control over my body.
And no matter what someone decides to do, or can do, their transness is as real as mine. 🖤
