ive been transitioning for a while now and i still dont really feel comfortable using womens facilities. i really want to because it feels like a major milestone in my transition, but idk theres still a lot of feelings stopping me. mostly i guess im just really scared, especially with how political trans fems using womens facilities has become.

im curious, when did you finally start going in womens bathrooms and locker rooms? were you comfortable or was it scary? did it take a long time to get used to it? did you have any issues?

    Honestly the first time. I was in a fast food and an employee opened the women’s door bathroom for me. My inner self was panicked and went in inside. That was like stressful af. But at the same time wow very gender affirming ૮₍ ´ ꒳ `₎ა. I had a weird look from another woman saddly.

    I still would love to make a proper thanks to that man but it’s far from home and not even sure he works there.
