Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself a little. I had started getting more active under a difference account but decided to start a new one as my old username could potentially be traced back to some defunct pre–transition social media.
You can call me Cily (pronounced like “silly”). I am in my mid thirties and started coming out a little over a year ago. I’ve been on HRT since December and am excited to be more active on Lemmy and get to know y’all more. I’ve been so impressed and happy to see a lot of folks sharing photos. I doubt I’ll get to the point where I feel safe enough to post my own photos but I still hope that I can share some of my experiences and feel like a part of the community.
Feel free to ask me questions or introduce yourselves! Thank you for having me :)

Hi Cily! Nice to meet you!
Hi! Nice to meet you too :) I saw your post about your nails. They looked really good! My wife and I have been using a gel kit to paint our nails but I recently came across a rumor that diy gel kits can lead to the development of a severe allergic reaction. So we may have to stop using gel which sucks because it’s pretty durable and lasts several weeks :(
Thank you! I think I did a pretty good job for my first time, lol. So sorry about your fun gel!
Yea its a bit of a bummer because having painted nails helps relieve so much dysphoria I have over my hands. But I’ll find some other way to manage, I usually do :)
