hey therese, thank you so much. :) yes, i’m very much a social democrat, and the u.s. is pretty much the worst place to have to deal with trans stuff, when it comes to the industrialized nations, anyway. i’d kill to be anywhere else: canada, australia, the uk, etc. … luckily my state is a fairly progressive one, and most insurance companies here do cover trans care. my current insurance through my work is from out of state, but i’m trying to switch to one in state.
good luck to you. starting hormones is so exciting. be well and i wish you al lthe best. xo <3
