To any #trans#femme people out there just starting hair removal: it’s a slow process but worth it. And it can be hard to see progress, since we tend to shave often except before an appointment.
Don’t lose heart! I’d been kinda down about the whole situation for a while. Then we got sick while on vacation, and I ended up not shaving for much longer than before electro.
It sucked, sure, but I saw for the first time in a while how much progress I’ve made.
Remember you can always feel more than others can see.
Je vous ai repoueté le thread de @Maryteax qui nous raconte qu'il y a bien un préjugé comme quoi les femmes sont connes, enfin plus connes que les mecs, et que donc elles sont forcément nulles en maths.
Mais elles sont nulles en maths seulement parce qu'on leur a bien répété qu'elles sont nulles en maths.
Je suis cette soit-disant nulle en maths, et ça a totalement obéré mes chances de m'épanouir professionnellement et intellectuellement.

Mais pour la 17, y a pas qq part les données brutes correspondant à l'histogramme de pyramide des âges ?
En partant de ça, tu peux calculer des indicateurs intéressants, je me note de les poster un de ces jours.
Récemment je l'avais fait sur le bilan social des #enseignants#chercheurs pour tout le sup en France : résultat, pour les + de 55 ans, un #homme a 45% de chances de plus qu'une #femme d'être prof plutôt que MCF. C'est mauvais, mais.... 1/2
There is a false confidence, and a true one. False confidence involves pretending to be who you are not, and acting as if you know things you don't know. Real confidence comes from unabashedly being yourself.
When we are waiting for something, someone, it is an ache, a drive deep inside our heart that simply can't be easily wished away. If it could, then it would be because you really haven't wanted it. Don't feel bad that you can't give up wanting what you're waiting for.
It's amazing how much easier it is to think in a quiet place, when you feel calm, contented, and relaxed. It's worth finding such a place and spending time there.
Ok #femme and #masq who do their nails: is it better for me to keep my nails slightly shaped or let them grow out before going to a #salon and getting my nails done, so that they have more to work with?
I’ve always tried to let them kind of grow out more than I normally would, but it drives me nuts when they start making weird shapes.
Ooh! I’ll do a poll!
Hey #fedi having a real gender moment recently any trans fem people out there willing to share they're coming out story and talk about your journey? <3 :blobhaj_plead2:
Feel free to DM if you don't want it public :blobhajmlem:
People think being hard is radical but that's just buying into the already existing paradigm of violence and cruelty. Being soft is far more radical and softness is actually far more resilient than hardness, which can be very brittle and fragile while softness envelopes and absorbs shocks. Of course, ultimately it's not an either or situation and being able to be hard or soft depending on what the situation needs is important. But. In a world that only values hardness, even if it's brittle and overcompensating for a fear of the incredible power of softness, it's being soft that's radical and what's most desperately needed. Be soft, be kind, know when to absorb and when to deflect, you'll survive far more shocks to your and the system. #soft#femme#RadicalFemmes
