Transvox - Euphoria, Challenges, and Authenticity: Navigating Transition
In this lighthearted episode of Transvox, hosts Jenny and Gillian discuss the joys and unexpected challenges of transitioning, particularly for older trans women.
They reflect on gender euphoria, the balance between dysphoria and euphoria, and the societal pressures and discomfort faced by trans women, from underwire bras to high heels.
Humorously tackling topics like voice changes, workplace dynamics, and the loss of male privilege, they emphasize the importance of authenticity and acceptance while acknowledging the realities and rewards of their experiences.
