    It’s so fucking weird how much I enjoy my own smell now. I’m glad to hear that it’s not just me.

    It really is a trip to discover all the sensory changes a person goes through with hrt. And it happens with testosterone as well. I’ve had extended interactions with a decent number of trans folks from before they started to a couple of years in, and there’s always this tipping point where scent changes noticeably.

    Even when I was still smoking, I could pick it up. I did notice that the shift hit my detection sooner for trans men. Not sure if that’s because testosterone works faster in that regard, or if the scents caused in trans women are just subtler at first, but it’s a cool thing to be around

        It’s funny, because I noticed the smell changes before anything else. I don’t know if I have a really good sense of smell, if I did something that helped the change along, or if I’m just built different.

    I can’t put it into words but I also noticed it. What exactly are the smell changes? Not as in, boyish to girlish, I mean moreso chemically.

    I know it’s E or anti-androgens doing it, but what exactly?

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_odor The simple answer is “It’s complicated”.

      I guess it’s just a different composition of the sweat or something?

      Maybe you’re making assumptions, and it was intended to read like a cry to the heavens!

      “Why does it smell like a girl? Oh Might! Because it’s mine!!!”
