@alyx @ikea_femme that's interesting because recently a lot of people (some I dont know at all) have told me how young I look, or just asked me randomly about my age ... maybe there is a general looking better effect? but I guess just give everything time ... :)

@Eve @ikea_femme yeah, i get the "you look much younger!" (than 38) very often. get used to it.

related, also told i have "great skin," even though i do literally nothing to care for it. most recent to say this was the freakin' surgeon from facialteam

so yeah, estrogen is good stuff ✨

@alyx @ikea_femme someone should market it as antiaging :) I'm happy with this effect though ❤ great skin is good too ❤ ❤

@Eve @alyx @ikea_femme a good chunk of it is mindset, i think... like, once i started figuring this shit out, just the way i *exist* in the world has changed significantly

a couple months back, my partner looked at me in a dress and asked if i'd started HRT without telling her. (nope!) that was... flattering

@rey @alyx @ikea_femme mindset seems right to me too. it's about the body but it's not just about the body ... (maybe this is obvious but)
