@whitequark i mean, "joyful" is probably a strong way of putting it. i'm pretty content with what i ended up with, and i consider it worth it after these five years. minimal complications because i went to one of the most experienced surgeons. helps that single-payer healthcare here in Canada wrote the cheque. truth be told, i don't really think about it much these days. it's just the shape of my body now.

i would hesitate to generalize based on the shared trauma of those you commiserate with.

@AmyZenunim i think "joyful" is more or less a way in which i describe "being pretty content with your body, enough to talk about it"

@whitequark @AmyZenunim I might also count as being "joyful" there, depending on how you look at it. I definitely feel comfortable with my vulva and I like it, but I'm ace and don't think about it much.

(I still wouldn't consider myself content with my body, mostly because of weird beauty standards stuff. Genitals are unrelated to that though)
