I recently (probably due to medication) stopped obsessively biting/picking at my nails so much and was able to allow them to grow out, and for the first time fille them and otherwise shape them and OMG I LOVE MY NAILS it feels a little ridiculous, but seeing them when I’m looking at my palm is so awesome!

It’s also incredibly disgust when I feel a kind of shit get under the, and the shapes are all over the fucking place due to varying widths and whatnot, but still! Holy shit! I kind of like having nails!

Is this the gender euphoria I’ve been hearing so much about?

I essentially see my hands/nails and,

Edit:

They’re not even painted! I’ve got some clear I’m going to try on my fingers soon, and some satiny deep purple I am super excited to try on my toes(not my first on my toes)

Update:

OMG it’s like shimmery purple and I fucking love it! It’s too fine to be glittery. It’s almost like metallic dark purple and I fucking love it!!!

Edit, update again: Holy shit, I don’t remember the last time I felt this giddy, literally just like the above Frozen gif!

Again, again: I feel like the shine makes the shape so much more forgivable. I honestly can’t believe how much this color and shinyness feels on my nails! I fucking love it so much!

    I keep my nails short, preference of my partner.

    I love having them painted though, and there’s a distinct difference in how I feel when they need redoing, and having them pretty.

      That is interesting to hear, and I’ll definitely be paying attention to see if I feel the same.

      I’ve totally(half) joked with my partner about doing the “lesbian nails” thing where they’re all long except the two 😅
