Courtney (she/her/they)

Hello lovelies, I am a (trans)Woman who is still in the process of discovering herself!

I have been working up the courage to be who I am for so long, I am excited to be figuring things out.

Pre-HRT, pre-fashion-sense, and pre-confidence.

Any and all tips and advice from more experienced women are welcome!

  • Why go outside when inside is nice and comfy and I can wear whatever I want? Or nothing? Outside has people, and they’re just awful most of the time.

    Except proper fall weather where it’s fairly dry, the temps go from 50 at night to 65 during the day, and camping feels nice and refreshing. But that’s not this year, apparently…

    Also partial real answer: skin is one of the things affected by hrt, as the skin becomes about 25% thinner over the first years of therapy




  • Girl every picture you post I go “omg she’s so pretty!”

    Stop being mean to yourself, you absolutely would not put up with someone saying these things about a friend of yours, so don’t say it about yourself. I have to remind my own friends (and myself sometimes) about that.

    You can’t deny reality, you aren’t flat anywhere 😜 (okay that sounded more complimentary in my head but reading it back it sounds a little creepy lol I mean it as a compliment)

    Even with my wider hips, I still have a couple shapewear pads I wear when I’ve got anything form fitting on. They give me about 30-40mm of padding on each hip that gives my brain a nice little dopamine hit when I look in the mirror

    In 10 years when the world has figured out climate change, bigotry, nationalism, public transit, and cheap and efficient international travel, we can take a selfie together dressed in such a way that accentuates our preferred sizes of boobs and butts, surrounded by people doing the same 😊

    Hey a girl can dream…

    (but srs stop being so hard on yourself, you are beautiful and worthy and I always look forward to your posts)


  • Girl what

    I definitely remember seeing a non-flat chest in your pictures!

    I’m only not-flat right now because I weigh so much… I’m within 20lbs of my lowest ever as an adult, but that was still barely considered within healthy weight range… Plus side is that now I’m getting a bit of a head start in excess adipose tissue on my chest!

    I dislike almost every aspect of my body right now, but I’m trying to look at the positives like that one. (and also my hips have always been a little wider than most cis men)

    I am positive we will BOTH get there!

    Hopefully in a year I can give an hrt update on how things are filling in 😊



  • I’ve been checking my vials for debris, discoloration, cloudineds, etc to make sure it’s still good every week, but so far I’ve managed to get an extra month out of everything. So I think I might spend a couple weeks doing every 5/6 days to see how I feel during the week. Which means tomorrow will be my next scheduled one, hopefully this Tuesday will be better than last Tuesday…


  • Can confirm, feel shitty as early as Sunday and usually it gets worse until Thursday, as Wednesday is my injection day. Usually I’m in a better mood Wednesday becausd I know the good vibes (and puffier boobs, but maybe that’s imagined) are coming

    Honestly if I had an excess of money or free blood tests, I’d do a blood test every day for two weeks to check my levels. I feel like I should go down to every 5 days.










  • Well, it’s basically a bodysuit, tights, corset, wings, some horns I got at renfaire last year, and aforementioned tail… Nothing fancy.

    I have no confidence, but at least I have supportive friends that make me feel like I can pull it off!

    I’ve seen how good you look in some of your selfie posts, girl, you can totally pull off an outfit like that!
