The Ravenous
My time in the industry taught me a lot about people. Their motivations and drives. The cornucopia of things that turns one on and off. Traumas past and present. Chemistry, rapport, and humility within those.
Yet there are small percentage of outliers that are hypersexual, and ravenous. I found that in most cases. It was almost always women in their mid 30's and up. While back in the 2000's the industry deemed them as "too old". Which always found ridiculous and antiquated. Their endurance was far greater of men the same age. The orgasms stronger and more electric to film. When their kink demands were met, they became almost animalistic and carnal in a way.
Still the age range was typically reserved for gonzo style shoots. The studios didn't care about making her a star. They just wanted content to keep them in business. Feeding into stereotypes about the adult world. I voiced my opinion on the matter on a few occasions. Which led to me ultimately being fired.
Back then I never understood why certain women were able to tap into this versus others. I thought, surely there are other women who feel this way that are not in the industry. Perhaps they even felt ashamed to admit it due to familial or societal pressures.
Now fast forward to this modern age. And after years having my nose buried in various university studies. We find the answers are in a persons blood. To be specific hormonal imbalances, leading at times to depression. Imbalances so bad, where in certain cases locking a persons true self away. I encourage women not to hinder themselves. Seek out an endocrinologist and have your levels checked. Perhaps it will unlock a side of yourself. Even your own ravenous side. What you choose to do with it is your own. Embrace it.
Sir, the fetal position is my friend
been on HRT for like 3 years and I can safely say WHO THE FUCK WAS THAT???? I look like a completely different person to the point that even my bone structure looks different. Not to mention the boobs! and - AND I GOT FRECKLES NOW. ALSO MY HANK HILL ASS NOW KNOCKS STUFF OVER. I can stare at an old pic of me for hours and not point out a single simularity from then and now. Friends are baffled when I show them old pics. It's kinda uncanny lmao.
Safe to say
HRT IS FUCKING MAGIC
((this is my own personal experience, ymmv))
TRANS WOMEN: HERE'S SOME SHIT YOUR DOCTOR WONT TELL YOU ABOUT HRT
1. Progesterone: not for everyone, but for many people it may increase sex drive and WILL make your boobs bigger. Also effects mood in ways that many find positive (but some find negative). Most doctors won’t prescribe this to you unless you ask. Most trans girls I know swear by it.
2. Injectible estrogen: is more effective than pill or patch form. Get on it if you can bear needles bc you will see more effects more quickly.
3. Estradiol Cypionate: There is currently a shortage of injectible estradiol valerate. There is no shortage of estradiol cypionate. Functionally they do the same shit.
4. Bicalutamide: This is an anti-androgen that has almost none of the side-effects of spironolactone or finasteride. The girls I know who are on it are evangelical about it.
I think it's cool if a cis woman goes on testosterone, or gets top surgery for aesthetic/affirmation reasons, or even gets phalloplasty.
I also think it's cool if a cis man goes on estrogen, or gets breast augmentation for aesthetic/affirmation reasons, or even gets a vaginoplasty.
It is my belief that bodily autonomy doesn't depend on identity. You have the fundamental right to alter your body as the want or need arises, because when you don't own your body absolutely, you own nothing.

trans, intersex and folks of any identity who take HRT (both testosterone & estrogens) please be careful as we enter summer in the northern hemisphere. hormone replacement therapy can cause your body to experience fluctuations in temperature, heat flashes, and changes in experience with ambient temperature. you may notice you're very cold or very hot a lot of the time. please be careful if you are going to be spending a lot of time in the sun, you may be more affected by it for a while as your body adjusts its experience with thermoregulation. we are approaching pride month, enjoy yourselves, but make sure you stay hydrated and don't let yourself overheat when and where possible, as you body may also be purging a lot of electrolytes if you are on spironolactone or are sweating a lot.
Ok I took them! Where’s my boobies?
Today’s the day!!!!! :D
March 12th!! Mark it in your calendars I’m starting horomones!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Wish me luck 🥰🥰🥰
finally sent that email to the endocrinologist, hoping that he responds soon and I'll be able to start t in a few months (next year but still!)
A lot of Doctors really want to be able to have a "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" sign, but since that is illegal they found a work around.
Remember the wide spread Opioid addiction as well as over prescribing Benzos and Amphetamines to children was caused by doctors writing perscriptiins.
Maybe one day they will just legalize drugs and you won't need a fucking doctor to tell you you have the privilege to have your pain treated, or gender affirmed, or any other body autonomy.
yeah so basically when you decide to transition you have to get the approval of cisgender people and tell them deeply personal ideas and history and possible futures you desire oh and also how do you masturbate and what do you think about? also please be in therapy for 1,000 years and talk to therapists and psychiatrists no we don’t really care that this is all expensive as fuck and could easily be funding your transition for months instead. oh and you have to live as your preferred gender before getting hormones. what do you mean this seems cruel and you’re getting harassed? oh you didn’t show signs of dysphoria as a child or teenager and you don’t really have severe dysphoria now we’re sorry but we can’t prescribe you hormones. go home now faggot
Calling my trans siblings that do injections (and anyone else that does regular self-injections)!
This is a ShotBlocker. It’s perfect if you have a fear of needles, injections, injection pain, or any other kind of injection anxiety. You place the plastic spikes on your skin and firmly press them down while doing your injection. Having many different points of pressure distracts you from injection pain and I’ve found it helps mentally as well.
I’ve been doing T injections for about a month now and tonight I didn’t have to work myself up to it like I’ve had to in the past. AND it wasn’t as painful as my other injections! I highly recommend getting one of these if you’re struggling to do injections. You can get them for $5-$7 online and they are reusable.

This is the epitome of accuracy, I can’t even tell you.

Was re enrolling for my next year of uni and saw my photo from last september- it is UNFAIR how clear my skin was just a year ago. Testosterone, you are an absolute blessing, but sometimes you really test my patience <3
Damn, ovulating right now and not having a nice time. Any other uterus having folks ever get the urge to just screech into the void like a sloth in heat? No? Odd, just me then.
It really sucks that ever since I’ve gone through puberty I sometimes can’t tell whether I want to get fucked or just torture someone to death. Both of those things feel like a swell of oddly flavored anxiety that translates to rage.
