#83Hell yeah. I feel like if the world ended there would be a group of trans woman with a wind powered experimental estrogen generator inside of a week.
Knowing us it'd probably be in portland
Sidenote a fallout game in portland should totally feature this

#84I'm a rather hairy man and I literally don't even want to imagine the pain of going through this hair-by-hair. I also don't see the aesthetics behind it, but I guess that's the hetero guy speaking. Is this something that M2F trans people typically do? Is it really this expensive? OP mentions hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Typically not everywhere, but places with really coarse and dark hair like the face and chest are pretty common. Also, you need some done down there for some PIV vaginoplasty (though, some surgeons remove hair in other ways. in general a lot of mtf bottom surgery varies from surgeon to surgeon though)

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. I was hung up on the arm hair.
Thicker and longer arm hair is still a masculine trait. Testosterone thickens hair all over your body. Feminising HRT does revert body hair for some people (but not facial hair, it's a biological quirk), but usually not enough to where cis women are if you started out hairy
I feel like harrier arms on women isn't that uncommon, but that could also just be the people I hang around (they tend to be more punk/hippie than the average)

The people I hang around tend to be more Italian than average. I bet there are a lot of factors

With high-powered lasers, you can go blind instantly. I also worked with lasers (in a lab, with all the safety precautions), yet I have slight eye damage in one eye. There's a small burnt patch on my fovea, so if I look at something like a regular grid (e.g. a page with text) with the damaged eye, the grid becomes warped at the point of focus. And I found out about that only when I was doing a regular planned eye exa…
Wow. As my only experience with lasers is playing with laser pointer I suppose the laser damage of this type is mostly by multiple reflections that are not really even seen by visible eye or scattered beam reflected from some surface you are not expecting it from?
This type of damage is common if you look at the spot that the laser makes on an object. Your eye automatically focuses it into the foveal area.
I don't remember ever doing that without protective glasses, but evidently I did at some point.
