  • While a few of these points are misleading sexist, or wrong, I can personally attest to the longer thicker hair part. I’ve watched my beard grow in hundreds of times and with only a month on HRT the peach fuzz between my cheekbones and beard became long enough to pinch and tug at.


  • I don’t think HRT actually makes one’s hips wider past a certain age, and if a cis man took estrogen it would probably tank his mood, and most mannerisms don’t change because of HRT, they change because a person actively changes them. I sure hope there’s some bone growth and genetic influence left in me at 25 to widen my hips now that I’m on E, but I doubt it.

    The problem with the simplified meme format is that it only shows the good, not the bad or neutral stuff. It doesn’t tell anyone that some of the meds can cause blood clots for example.










  • Everything has a lifespan, YouTube remaining free is probably in the middle of its lifespan by my guess.

    The cat and mouse game will go on for a bit before YouTube asks for donations, then starts requiring paid memberships across the board. Nobody wants to pirate a few dozen 30 second videos of cats, and that’s when YouTube’s competition will rise.

    As YouTube dies, new things will pop up to fill the niche. Most of us are hoping that new thing comes sooner rather than later. One day Peertube, Odyssey, and Grayjay will be better competition than little old YouTube.

    You asked this on Lemmy, which is a niche being filled in by the enshitification of Reddit. You’re part of the progress away from pdependency on the big few corporate sites. That’s a bigger deal than most people know.
