    For not being on T, I noticed a few more dark hairs on my cheeks and upper lip.

    Wore some men's cologne I had sitting in my bathroom for a few years.

    Some men's cologne still smells better than some of the sickly sweet things girly perfume offers.

    Wednesday night friend of mine (a white cis male, like most of the people in our regular hang-out group) was talking/joking about privilege. He said to me, "Go on, check your privilege. Check your white cis male privi-- wait." I laughed for for so long at that. It felt great knowing he had completely forgotten I was trans.

    So my trans friend got a boyfriend and his bf identified me as "that guy with the low voice" after being around me. Fully thought I was a boy and a low-voiced one at that :slight_smile:

    As long as it smells nice, that's all that matters. I never understood the gendering of scents. No one has ever says anything about how I smell, and I must "smell like a girl" with all the girly body wash, lotion, and deodorant I've been using....

    I think my voice has dropped, or I got a cold coming. :slight_smile: I am hopeful!

    Going to go on a plane and get through the airport by myself today. Super anxious about it but it is such a positive thing to do. I will make it through :slight_smile:

    I met someone I am trying to distance myself from today and I was able to interact with them casually, without any internal emotional turmoil. Score!

    Feeling more like I'm in control than ever. I decide who and when I interact with people.
