As a vulva owner, for me, the big win with the bidet isn't the ass.

Either way though, the goal is to get clean with water, instead of a dry piece of paper, and then use either toilet paper or a dedicated towel to dry down the now clean area.

At the moment, fish doesn't know what to do with run0. When that changes, I'll start using it :)

Yep, we will be!

I own my computer. But on Windows, it doesn't feel like that...

All I've got is anecdotes, but as I understand it, trans women are less likely to get prostate cancer in the first place. Personally, I don't know any trans women that have prostate cancer, and given how many older trans women I know, that suggests it's less common than you'd expect in cis men.

However, it could fit that those of us who do get prostate cancer are at a more severe level before it's detected. In my years in the trans community, the only times I've learned of trans women with prostate cancer is when it's been advanced. But those are all second hand stories and blogs/news articles etc.

Here's a Mara and baby Mara in Argentina

Maras are pretty flighty, but if they're used to people, yeah

The opening sentence of that journal article feels off...

"Among people with prostate cancer, transgender women receiving estrogen are more likely to present with high-grade disease vs cisgender men, suggesting potential delayed diagnosis"

Given that trans women have smaller prostates (a protective factor) and lower testosterone (a protective factor) and that estrogen therapy is the leading treatment for men with prostate cancer, it feels like quite an assumption to state that lower overall presentations of high grade cancer are potentially an indication of an increased risk of high grade cancer...

Here's me in the "other" category

Soda Stereo from Argentina, and Monsieur Periné from Colombia

That's a Mara. They're the cutest things! And the little babies are even cuter!

I came out just over 7 years ago, so people have had quite a bit of time to adapt.

My mother started at 2. Now she's 1 in intent, but 1.5 in practice.

My kiddo started at 2, but has since gone through their own journey of queer self discovery, and is now a loud and proud 1.

My ex (the kiddo's other mother) and I were broken up for many years before I came out. We don't get on, but even so, she was instantly supportive of my transition and remains so to this day. She started at a strong 1 and is still a 1.

My grandmother, who was in her late 90s when I came out started at a 2. She has since passed away.

Other than that, I don't have much family in my life. My father passed before I transitioned, and aside from funerals, I don't interact with my cousins or aunts and uncles. If I had to rate them as a group, there somewhere between 3 and 4, but I don't really know, because I basically have no interaction with them.
