Awesome!! I'm very proud of you!

Baby steps are sometimes the most meaningful. You can do it!

Thanks for sharing your baby steps! Inspiring for me, I have only just admitted to myself that I have gender envy might be non binary. I painted my nails for fun last night and I was thinking of keeping them on since people probably will just think it's a Halloween thing. And yeah also nobody cares, people think about you way less than you think they do.

I went straight in with cement. I love the brutalist aesthetic, people stopped questioning me after the first week

I started leaving mine always-painted a few months ago. I've only gotten two comments: I met up with some friends from high school for a game of Magic and got one person saying they looked nice; and I had to give my super-conservative Christian father-in-law a ride to a doctor's appointment, and he saw my fingers and said, "Red?" I told him it was to match my sneakers, and he left it at that.

It makes me feel good, and if people notice, they mostly don't seem to give a shit. Have fun with it, girlie!

You're doing well. Congrats!
