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!

  • I am on estradiol valerate

    My Dr, the nurse, and 2 pharmacists told me to toss mine after 28-30 days because it starts breaking down after a few weeks and isn’t worth injecting anymore. Nobody mentioned contamination. The pharmacists were making exrea sure I knew I needed to wipe the top of the bottle with alcohol prep wipes to avoid contamination.

    I’m getting refills every 4th injection anyway, but there’s so much left inside, I kind of wish I could independently verify it is breaking down (not just find info online, actually have it tested somewhere or something idk) because I know someone who would absolutely want the extra…
















  • “people with vaginas” encompasses everyone regardless of sexual identity, gender assignment, or anything else really.

    My spouse is non-binary, has a vagina. Two of my male best friends have vaginas, although one had a historectomy and no longer menstruates. A few other friends have vaginas although I’m not sure if they menstruate anymore. One is gender fluid and has a vagina.

    “male/man female/woman” is gendered language, and insisting that only women have vaginas and menstruate is 100% just saying a whole group of people isn’t important enough for consideration, and that is inherently transphobic.

    And for the record, yes “female” has a weird connotation in the US because right wing weirdos and incels seem to be unable to say “women” and don’t view women as people.




  • It’s ignoring that an entire group of people exists, I’m so fucking sorry that attempting to be inclusive is somehow offensive to you.

    When it’s people of color, everyone loses their goddamn minds, but when it’s trans people it’s “okay to not be 100% perfect”

    Fuck off with this closeted transphobia and admit you just don’t care enough about Trans people to be precise.

    Edit: if you’re gonna comment another transphoobia supporting thing, just fuck off or admit you don’t care about trans people and inclusivity, honestly just go to Twitter or whatever trump is on nowadays because you clearly belong there.
