So, I was born(not literally) furry af, a few days ago finally got to "fuck it! Let's do it" and used some depilatory cream to remove basically everything from the hips up.

It's a bit weird, definitely different, but I love it! Haven't had any comments so far, still a tiny bit nervous about that. But also kind of more of a "who gives a fuck?" mindset. Wifey has definitely admitted to liking my arm freckles being more visible, which feels awesome af too!

I'm not convinced its100% related, but I've also been feeling better about myself, which is also awesome! I remember the past few(idk) years looking into the mirror some night and just thinking "I really don't like you/the way you look" but never really knowing why. Lately, I don't have that as much, and sometimes think I'm getting small glimpses of a woman in there!

It's different. It's terrifying. It's awesome.

Not OP, but I started growing my hair out in late '22. During Summer '23, it started to look more feminine. I looked in the mirror randomly that summer and I had to stop and look. Because what I saw, for the first time in the 30 years I've been on Earth, made me instinctively smile. I didn't want to stop looking because it just felt so happy seeing how I looked.
And it's only encouraged me to be more fem. I just need to move to a location where I can safely be me.

Really the same for me, but that was during lockdown. The hair is my starting point to my fem too, and I really understand why you need to move.

When you will be "free" from direct social consequences, you will be in "fast and furious" mode for sure ! :)

Keep strong siss
