Starting T, Name Changes & Transitioning

Finally filling you in on all of this trans stuff that's become a topic on my channel. I had a lot of trouble articulating my thoughts for this one despite having already filmed it once, but this likely won't be the last time we chat about it anyway! Just a few extra points I wanna mention: I feel like I should have said 'presented as a girl' rather than 'days that I was more femme', when talking about my thoughts on being genderfluid. I still enjoy makeup and other traditionally feminine things, it was just being perceived as and trying to be a girl that made me uncomfortable. I also want to acknowledge the societal pressure on transmasculine individuals to work out and be ripped as soon as they start taking T and how that doesn't leave room for anyone who doesn’t fit that description. So just to clarify, I don't want to contribute to any kind of toxic masculinity, diet culture or body shaming and I’m not going to push myself with weight training if it ends up not feeling right for me. I’m all about doing what feels good and fun for each individual (and other people's movement/exercise regimes or lack thereof is none of my business) 😊
