Boob Sweat

Summer is finally here! I love summer and hate winter, so I’m really happy! However summer does have its challenges. For example, can the Phillies actually win a game or two? Are those mosquitoes or pterodactyls? Then there’s hot and humid weather. Here in the Philly area, 90 degree heat (Fahrenheit) and 90% humidity is very common over the summer months. Which brings me to this month’s topic.

There are many small nuances to being a full time woman that no one ever tells you about. But after I went full time, I mention them to Genetic Girls and they laugh in agreement. Well, dear reader, I’m going to bring you a few of these so you know what to expect if you’re going to go full time, or just so you can have a laugh at my expense.

The first of these things is a Summer issue. I have been told that women don’t sweat: they glisten. Well, let me tell you about a body part that doesn’t glisten: breasts. The pour out water like a faucet. Yes — Boob sweat. On a given muggy day, the bra gets soaked in a hurry. I’ve been told there are bra liners available to help cope with this, but I never found them. I’ve tried doubling down on the powder, but that doesn’t work either. So at the end of the day, I have a sweat-soaked stinky bra. And bras are not easy to wash! It’s a bit frustrating, but in the end, I’ll take it. I love having boobs, even if they sweat like, well, boobs!

Oh, and while I’m thinking about sweat and stinkiness: remember that when you start HRT, your body chemistry changes. And do you really want to wear Old Spice or Axe body spray? Find a feminine deodorant that works for YOU. That might take some experimentation. I use Secret (strong enough for a man, but made for a woman.) It works well for me.

Never Let Them See You Sweat

The second part isn’t exclusive to full timers. It can happen to anyone wearing a skirt, especially if you’re wearing pantyhose. So you go to the ladies room, and you’re wearing a skirt. You finish up, pull up your panties or whatever and don’t realize that the skirt back has been caught in them. So you go wash your hands, head out the door, tra la la… and your skirt is still tucked into your undies. Everyone can see. Yes, this has happened to me on a couple of occasions — once at work. Fortunately, I went into the break room, and one of my fellow employees caught it. She said “don’t worry — it happens to us all!” Maybe — but why didn’t anyone clue me in? So now when I’m wearing a skirt, I make sure that, after I’m finished, the skirt and undies are in their respective correct positions and not tied into some kind of a knot.

The third is quite frustrating. Guys have something called “male privilege.” You may have heard of it. By becoming a woman, guess what you give up? That’s right! Guys automatically regard you as inferior in all ways, especially intelligence. Some women like to play into this — act stupid to get the guy and all that. Well, no guy is into me, so I don’t play dumb. I have a deep knowledge of some “guy” subjects like History. That surprises some guys. Some even stop looking at my sweaty boobs when I bring up military history topics! Some fellow TGs say that such knowledge outs me as trans. Like I blend in anyway? That said, some things guys do for women take some getting used to. I’m still not used to guys opening doors for me. I have to admit, I kind of like that. I know — I’m a bad feminist. But it makes me FEEL feminine.

So there you have it, dear reader, a few things that women don’t discuss with guys. There are others of course — some women love announcing to “the girls” that they’re miserable because they’re on their period, for example. And guys — women DO discuss your performance. Not just in the bedroom, but the whole date. So if you’re an uncouth jerk, rest assured word will get around. Conversely, if you are a Gentleman, that word gets around as well. Manners go far with women. They certainly do with me! I’m sure I’ll come up with a few more things after I’ve submitted this piece, and of course some things take far too much time to discuss in a short space (like wardrobe choice — don’t dress like a teen when you’re in your 40s!) But for now this will have to do.

Be well!
