I came out to my friends recently and they’re all pretty good at getting it right, but on the bus yesterday i had a hoodie on the floor cos my bag was full and a woman gets on and asks if i’ve dropped it, to which i respond no it’s just on my bag! THEN. this woman from the other side of the bus goes “that’s boys for you, always leaving their things around! don’t worry he’s got it on his bag”
ts felt so good

I’ve got the hang of taping so it actually works but i usually have to remove it after a day cos im not out to my parents yet and i don’t want them to notice anything, ive been soaking the tape in the shower for like a good ten minutes before taking it off and even then its TEARING up my back… ideally id like my back to be healed in two days so i can tape again so fingers crossed i guess? (i also really cant afford like proper oil to take it off and stuff… any tips on why this might be happening would be great)

today i tried taping for the first time and it feels rather painful! just in the middle of my chest it seems to be stretching it too far but if i do it any looser it doesn’t seem to work… just wondering if thats something i have to put up with or if im doing something wrong

So recently i was slightly under the influence at a party, and told everyone about how i’ve been feeling like a guy for years now but have sorta just kept it in. I’m yet to tell my parents but a couple of my freinds have been referring to me as he/him since and it does make me feel good knowing that, but also guilty.

I have a major fear of medical procedures and things of the sort so i was wondering is there like a bad view on people who refer to themselves as another gender but don’t get surgeries? I plan on eventually learning how to use tape and stuff and i already present very masculine so i feel halfway there…?
