I'm not trans but I hate this as well 😭 my beard grows uneven so I can't even leave it on if I wanted to
Meanwhile my hairline loses land faster than the netherlands would if they didn't build dams
Oh damn hitting close to home today
Now this is relatable
Dikes, not dams :) Though I guess we also have dams?
Anyway, fuck facial hair.
I've only lived here for a few months still learning, thanks for the correction I'm learning!
Oh wow, I didn't know that. Welcome!
How are you finding it so far?
I hope you'll have a good time living here :)
Moved from just over the border (Belgium) so not a huuuuge change in life but liking it here! Actually signing tomorrow to buy an appartement so here to stay :p
The only thing I got a heart attack about was my health insurance costs being about 14x higher than Belgium but more net salary made up for it xD
That’s not much of a culture shock, that’s for sure :) Still, I hope you’ll enjoy your new home.
And yes, health insurance isn’t cheap. I mean it isn’t US levels, but I wouldn’t mind if it was a bit cheaper :)
Its mostly the little language differences (je/jij instead of ge/gij is my most painful one) but that's minimal haha
Thanks! We'll see how it goes in the long run I guess, no plans on returning anytime soon tho
Yeahh, a high monthly cost + a deductible is quite insane
I'm lucky I don't have the hair thinning problem. The beard sucks though, I always hated having a beard. It's one of the first signs looking back that I wasn't anywhere near as cis as I thought I was.
For me, if my beard just grew alright I'd keep it but it grows so uneven that its basically just impossible ;-;
It’s partially the itchiness, but also allergy season that keeps me from having a beard. Too hard to blow your nose with one unless you want to look like Abe Lincoln.
Edit: trout? Wtf autocorrect
Totally understandable! The faster growing / thicker part of my beard also tends to be a bit itchy if I let it grow for too long (sometimes I have hope it'll finally look good ok) but not that bad that I would shave it because of that so for me its luckily not that huge of an issue.
