We spend our lives attempting to achieve that which we perceive as “perfection”: the perfect job, the perfect house, the perfect partner, the perfect body, the perfect face, the perfect car, the list goes on and on. For the trans population, especially those on HRT, or those who want to begin HRT, that “perfection” can be even more difficult to achieve… But really it’s only because we set ridiculously high standards for ourselves, based on society’s ideals, and how we want society to see us.
I’ll admit that even I fall victim to that pursuit of perfection.
