i am a linux user and i got my first pair when i was just barely questioning my gender

like maybe 2 weeks into thinking anything of the sort where i kinda assumed i was either a femboy or just cis but fem then i "tried" she/her pronouns online and have never gone back.

been on hrt for a year now and i am no longer depressed and feel much happier about myself.

anyways sorry it went on so long but i guess i started wearing them 2.5/3 years ago although i still cant program for shit
