There’s a vial of T with your name on it

dude.

Oh my god. It's beautiful

A lot of talk about boymoding and how hard it is but trans men do the exact same thing the other way around and a lot of times specifically because they are forced into sex work

It has writing by everyone from girlmoding full-service ecorts to medically transitioned porn stars.

It's one of the only published works on the topic (in fact, I think it might be currently he the sole published work on the topic in English).

It was a practice the Romans used to punish dead individuals and their contributions they made towards society by destroying anything they made, forbidding anyone to mourn them, completely erasing their memory and existences from public record and history. By erasing everything from public memory, there was no evidence the person ever truly existed
