There's something really comforting about your videos... Maybe it's your voice, or maybe it's just the way you exist with your own self. I know insecurities are difficult to get rid of... But what matters is that you can sit with yourself at the end of each day.

It is so hard to stop being self critical . For many of us it is an ongoing battle.

I proud of you how you are brave and confrontation your insecurities

Daan Love the video and topic, including kitchen mishap for a little comic relief. :) As an older trans woman I feel the same way, living in a hot apartment without air conditioning, doing dishes in front of the kitchen window, without a bra or shirt. A friend of mine, a trans man, said the same “let them look, what does it matter.”

Chaos in the kitchen 😁 Your dilemma reminds me of the "which bathroom should I choose?" dilemma!!! Womens bathroom: makeup, chatting, waiting. Mens bathroom: get in, get out, dont look at each other They dont give a crap. We do worry too much!!

Leftovers lost = sadness! I hate when that happens. Looks delicious though, glad you got to have some of it! I know this isn't your point, but seeing other people shirtless and comfortable makes me feel more valid/comfortable with my own scars & body. I was actually looking at your back tattoo more though, great artwork! Clean straight lines and good detail! The other day my maintenance guy stopped in and I didn't even think about putting a shirt on before I answered my door. It made him uncomfortable I could tell, so I apologized and put one on. The next time he called first instead of dropping by unannounced as well. I'm a night owl, so I'm not awake when the rest of the people around here are. I tell everyone "good morning" when I come outside around 3pm, and tell them I'm going to go eat breakfast around 4pm. It's caught on as light-hearted fodder for conversation when I'm around ☺ Is that the neighbor's cat? I hope you reach 1000 subs 👍

Yeah, neighbors cat, but she loves to spend het time in my garden

Not a psychiatrist, but maybe self-criticism is just a bit of leftover dysphoria? I realize it isn’t helpful, but you look fine to me, including the bushy crown of hair. 😉 If you’re concerned about it receding, oral minoxidil works much better than the topical treatment, although it can lower the blood pressure. Public filming is a strength you can practice. I certainly don’t notice anyone watching me taking photos, no matter how strange I may look doing it. 😂 Stay in the moment, and you’ll be fine. 😺✌️

Thanks for the info about oral minoxidil, I have high blood pressure, so that's a non-issue/good side effect for me that it would lower my BP 👍

Wait - where did the kitty come from? Did I forget you got a new one?
