the 7 and 8 are all codenamed after plants. Lavender, Violet, Ginko, Begonia, Williow and Biloba.

Half are trees. Most are better names for trans women than Begonia.

Being trans really does give an unfair advantage in chess somehow... and so does wearing jeans.

I'm sure a trans woman wearing jeans would be so powerful at chess FiDE would have to invent a title above grandmaster.

I kind of wonder what the worst possible flower to have as a name. I would say begonia. Very pretty flower, not so pretty of a word.

humor is subjective

im trans and thought it was funny.

its the risk of online sarcasm, it can easily be missed and taken at face value which makes it even funnier.

blahaj.zone has very strict enforcement of noninclusive language and statements. as much as I personally appreciate this brand of humor, its probably unwise to post similar comments on this instance

I love the enunciation. There's an elegance and poise to the consonants that I wish I could do myself.

It does however sound inauthentic, mostly in the tone and pitch. The tone is thin, and the pitch range is really compressed. You seem to be speaking as high as possible constantly, so you have no room to raise and lower your pitch during phrases.

Women's voices are way lower than many people realize. Your recording is pretty illustrative of why most literature on voice training stress the importance of resonance over pitch.

The first link and text of the post is about getting a copy of the birth certificate.

The second link is about amendments and seems accurate as far as I can tell.

Regardless you will probably want to order certified copies at the same time.

The US did issue passports with an x gender marker. The first one was issued in 2021 after a lawsuit, and the option was on the official paperwork in 2022. Most would usually advise against doing so as many countries do not recognize the X gender, and would deny entry as a result. Be aware of where you want to travel and that those countries are accepting before you commit to the X marker.

That was before the newest administration. It remains to be seen how things will play out in future as many executive orders will be blocked in the courts. Executive orders are the lowest tier federal legislation, overruled by nearly everything else.

A friend of mine became a notary, and I signed some form declaring their trustworthiness. Apparently its a good business. Anyone buying a house needs a notary and will pay for the service especially if you do house calls.

 
 

I have been on HRT for a little over two months. I am taking sprio and sublingual estradiol.

These treatments have pretty much cured my depression, but otherwise I feel pretty much the same. I kind of expected estrogen to feel actively different most of the time, but so far that doesn't seem to be the case.

However, today I felt my nerves for the first time on HRT, and it felt very different. I get stage fright on occasion. This time wasn't worse or anything, but it felt so very different. Like the nerves were in my body instead of my head.

Has anyone else had similar experiences with performance anxiety before and after HRT? I'd also love to know if are other experiences that feel distinctly different that I can look forward to.

Thx in advance. Love you all <3
