Not everyone checks their height every day or even every week like some of us. Most will go based on an old doctor’s visit or their ID or be too afraid to check (Trish). Nearly everyone shrinks save for an unlucky few, so its unlikely many heighthons are even that bad anymore and most of the 5’10/5’11 girls I interact with are probably just 5’8 now. Hell, most people who claim to be taller than me are probably now shorter. I get I’m not even really a terrible heighthon its just…idk sucks to think about and feel inferior since I’m the only one who KNOWS she’s telling the truth. It pushes me further down the totem pole of trans girls if you will.

            no, i’m currently a workcel 💔 i was supposed to start a bachelor in physics last year, but my brain wasn’t functioning very well that summer 😭

            oopsie… my gut feeling was that you weren’t american, but i just assumed the confusion was about me going to med school next year, because the systems are so different in america and europe

              nw, i think medical school are super different everywhere. where i live you can only start when youre 18 and if you fail your first year you cant become a doctor kek

                hopefully, i’ll start in january… very excited to move away from this rural shithole to the city 😭

                yea, it’s mostly the same here, except that we graduate high school the year we turn 19. then, it’s straight to a 6–8 year long professional degree in medicine…
