So, I have been very into skirts since my junk grew back to pre hrt size, especially since I can't tuck day to day while trying for a baby, and skirts are genuinely saving me from constant dysphoria because I can make my very obvious bulge disappear. In this regard, they are magic.

I had an experience today that just, broke my brain a little bit. I ordered a garter belt because I got into thigh highs a little while ago, (I'm in my dressing like a slut phase okay?) and they do not like staying put, but it came with a mesh g-string I wasn't expecting. I tried it on and was shocked to find I could actually comfortably put things away in it, so it was approved for wearing. Anywhore, I wore the garter and g string as a surprise for my wife today, and put only a skirt on when I would normally wear shorts or leggings under a skirt, especially now that it's getting colder. I did not realize how much I rely on feeling the fabric on my butt to be able to trust that I'm covered! I had absolutely fuck all on my cheeks under my skirt, but it was impossible for anyone but me to know that because skirt! I thought a couple times I was showing something I hadn't meant to because I couldn't feel anything on my cheeks, but then remembered the skirt. It's like, I can dress however the fuck I want and show all the skin I want, but also look totally modest and not draw attention! The possibilities for being secretly dressed all sexy like with nobody knowing are limitless!

Skirts are rad, and I'm so glad I'm able to wear them!

I feel so fucking awful talking about my difficulties transitioning when I've had it so goddamned easy. Americans talking about their insurance blows my mind because hrt, laser on my face, neck, chest and back, bottom surgery and voice training among a few other things are covered by public healthcare here, so I just have to ask for it and wait while y'all have to game the system and pray your job doesn't go away. You sound like you can afford multiple surgeries that my budget won't permit and aren't covered, so I envy you that.

    Nah you shouldn't feel bad about expressing your struggles just because someone else has it worse. That's how they convince people to give up what little they have. Healthcare should be free and paid for by taxes no question. It's exactly the type of thing that requires collective resources and benefits everyone. And it benefits people even if they don't use it because having healthy coworkers and neighbors makes your job easier and keeps you healthier. I hate that it is always treated as a personal problem rather than a societal one.
