Hello kind internet friends,I know I have not been doing the best job keeping things up to date here on the website front- I have been as trapped in the dopamine & engagement mines as the masses, but am often annoyed & discouraged by the ways that algorithm driven platforms that have the user reach…
Top Surgery can be a life saving procedure, but is not always as simple as the common narrative. This post announces an upcoming workshop offering partnership with Jess DeVries called Pleasure (your) Chest, which is a 4 part series for people who have had masculinizing chest surgery which we will be starting to offer online in September.
