People obviously don't understand the consequences we face and the sacrifices we make when we transition. Being trans isn't easy.

But we do it anyway, because the alternative is to be miserable.

    I moisturize with a homemade lotion. It's really simple to make. Shea butter, cocoa butter, coconut oil, almond oil. I just do equal parts and put it in a double boiler until it's all liquid.

    I use that everywhere, even in my hair as a deep conditioner. I will never buy store bought again.

    I should definitely be using SPF though ๐Ÿค”

    Being trans isn't a mental illness. We've existed across every culture and century, long before you had an opinion about it. Lack of empathy, however, actually is clinically recognized as a symptom of certain conditions. But hey, no shame, mental illness shouldn't be stigmatized either ๐Ÿค๐Ÿฉท๐Ÿฉต

    I agree with that, of course buying off the shelf is the most convenient.

    But bread is really easy to do yourself. Bread machines are really convenient, it's just set and forget. There are even no-knead recipes where you can just mix and leave it in your fridge overnight.

    Even though it's more convenient, I'll never eat store-bought again. Homemade is just so much better.
