Do you take hormones and how does it affect your body?
Yes, so I do take hormones.
I started hormones quite late for a trans person.
Well, maybe I shouldn't say that.
Well, a lot of trans people want to start hormones before they go through puberty because when you go through puberty, you develop quite masculine features or very feminine features.
You know, that's when you start growing boobs and whatever.
So, yeah, a lot of trans people are very worried about going through the puberty of their biological sex.
And I went through male puberty.
And I just have always been very small and petite and quite feminine.
So, and me and my friends would always joke, something's gone wrong at birth.
Because you have not, you have not got a normal man's body.
Something's gone wrong.
You know, like.
I hate to be a straight man with my body.
Yeah, I'm 5'5".
Is your dad... I've never met your dad.
Yeah.
Is he a little boy?
My dad's short, but he's, like, got a masculine body.
Yeah.
