The number of Blåhaj I share accommodation with is countably finite.

Pretty much.
It’s either my alarm clock or 5.1 speakers, both of which would be somewhere over 20 years old.
Follow international medical guidelines (i.e. WPATHv8) as a baseline, actually listen to trans people, and be willing to deviate based on patient need.
Have the trans community involved in governance in a non-tokenestic way, e.g. seats on the board.
Took me maybe a year to fully stop doing.
Testosterone can convert to estradiol via aromatase, however there’s no metabolic pathway in the other direction.
For estradiol pills, patches, and gel are your options if you can’t do needles.
Pills aren’t recommended for over 45s or those with a history of blood clots, due to increased risk of blood clots.
I think I read something about her sister handling it now.
For pre-op http://fuckingtranswomen.org/ is generally what is recommended.
Unfortunately she passed away before writing the post-op version.
Nimona and there’s a bit in The Legend of Korra.
For anime there’s Wandering Son (trans), Yuri on Ice (gay, didn’t see the hype myself), and I’m currently working through S1 of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury which my housemate and I refer to as Space Lesbians - though technically its more bi. I watch subs, so can’t comment on dubs.
Yes, it took me maybe 6-12 months after I was out to stop doing it.
Still happens rarely, usually for phrases that are gendered that I’d not be using often.
https://friture.org/ is the one I’ve been using.
Yes basically, it’s also less complex. Due to this there’s more research data to support it for under 18s than genital surgery.
See the section “Consideration of ages for gender-affirming medical and surgical treatment for adolescents” in WPATH v8 which covers this in depth.
The anti-trans groups champion her book, so I think it’s safe to say that she is not impartial.
Normal was probably around 8, queer questioning only started in my late 20s, and I only figured out I was trans a decade on again. Still haven’t fully figured out my sexuality, but labels are tools rather than boxes.
A-spec = Ace/Asexuality spectrum
I gather you’re in the US, so https://thegalap.org/ may be of use.
https://diyhrt.wiki/transfem is one good resource you should read.
I’d recommend finding local trans groups to help you do so safely (e.g. knowing the reputable suppliers, injection training, how to get blood tests).
One of the other confounding factors potentially is that this is from those who first got HRT from gender clinics, so would exclude those who were driven to self-med or go private.
You’re not likely to have the energy to do anything beyond lounging around for at least a week or two, I’d plan on taking at least a month off work.
