Hey all! I was wondering what are / were some intrusive thoughts you had?

For me and the reason why I ask, is because I just opened my tool storage to grab a broom. I saw my collection of sand paper and the electric grinder there and thought ‘Hmmm I wonder if you could sandpaper the legs to be suuuuuper smooth and hairless?’.

I did not give in - sanity was restored in time, buuuut that made me wonder what weird and intrusive thoughts you all might have had.

Guess I buy some wax for the legs then :-/ stupid hair keeps growing back…

    i had similar thoughts. stuff like planing my bodies surfaces … did not do. :) it got better after i came to think of myself as trans and even better with hrt. i once plucked every aingle hair in my face with pincers, though. that wasn’t a good day. but laser has helped a lot on that end.

    i have come to even like my body. :)

      Oh god that must have been quite painful, I only engaged in some plucking and that was quite irritating 🥹 can’t imagine doing my whole face.

      I’ve got an appointment today to potentially get that whole HRT thing on the way. So maybe, fingers crossed, in half a year, at the earliest, I may be able to start that. Hope it will help with that.

      But I swear the cupboard now tempts me like the green goblin. Saying that big laser doesn’t want me to know about it, I only have to try 🤣
