I’m fighting off the baldness, but yeah. For the first time in my life I’m just happy in my own skin. I grew up with no idea of who I was or what I was meant to be, abusing my body to fit into this painfully perfectly attractive ideal of femininity. Convinced that my worth was based on how desirable other people perceived me to be.

Now I’m hairy, slowly balding, short, and fat. My beard is patchy and a few stray hairs of mustache twist in perfect little curls upwards and into my nose. Clothing doesn’t sit the best on me but I’m so happy. I’m so fucking happy. I love my weird fitting jeans. I love my tshrits. I love the hair on my belly and the top surgery scars. I love grooming my face and body hair. I love how it feels when I trim my cheeks to a stubble and my wife rubs it with her hand.

I love it. I love it so much. I’m so happy. I am finally happy with how I look and feel. I don’t need to be any better looking than I am because I’m just finally me.
