Absolutely, you can message me! I'm not sure how well messaging works between piefed and lemmy yet, but I have a lemmy account too, if this doesn't work. I'm sorry it took so long for me to respond. I hope you got enough rest, it seemed like there was a lot to process through this whole post
Dr Girlfriend was a whole vibe. Almost a call back to the chainsmoking, husky-voiced actresses in vintage films
I know exactly what you mean about experiencing euphoria just from viewing the website!
I'm afab, but identify as agender. I have gone through many of the thoughts you've written here, especially if I'm even allowed to call myself trans when it's not exactly feasible for me to get bottom surgery. I'm also aroace, in a similar way that you are
Have you considered trying testosterone? At a lower dose you can still get some bottom growth. You'll also have some of the other changes like thicker body hair, and lowering of voice. I was on T for about four months and didn't have any voice changes, but still had enough growth that I was content. I can go into more detail if you like, and there's some toys out there (and functional prosthetics) that help alleviate some of the bottom dysphoria. There's definitely no right way to be Trans or NB but it helps to have some anecdotal info when you're feeling lost.

I had an ex proudly tell me that was his high school nickname. I'm ace, and somehow neither of us realized what the problem would be
I'm either binging or restricting. There is no "healthy food intake" season of my life yet. Getting there! Going from a stimulant to clonidine has actually helped a ton
My organic chemistry professor spent a solid 30 minutes explaining the difference between an em dash and an en dash so we could use them correctly in our lab reports. Then ended his little lecture with saying "They're in the special character menu of your word processor. Unless you're on Mac, then I suggest googling them."
I don't think any of us used either dash, but I'm just sad no one called him on his BS lol
Oh, for sure. I definitely am more comfortable with myself, my labels, and my preferences now. But when that egg first cracked, I felt like I wasn't worthy of the label because of some criteria. That's why I mentioned that there isn't really a right way to be trans or enby, it's often different from one person to the next
