What is something you learned or experienced from being trans that you wish you knew pre-transition, or that you wish cis people knew?
I’ll go first: the temperature differences when going from testosterone-dominance to estrogen-dominance is not just real but significant, my body just puts out less heat and I feel colder much easier now even when otherwise maintaining a high metabolism, eating in excess, etc.
It may have just been my trans denial before, but I really wanted to believe that the difference was not that great and I was wrong.
What’s something you wish people knew?
Fair enough. That’s a kinda good approach. If that doesn’t work it gets hard to explain the whole thing to others without taking a deep dive into Dysphoria
yes, I just don’t think cis people will understand dypshoria, even as a trans person I barely understand it tbh - it’s enough to just say it doesn’t feel good to be misgendered, and anyone seems to be able to understand that
