@JessTheUnstill@infosec.exchange for mine, it's absolutely before. I would have been way happier in my body if I transitioned way the fuck earlier, but I'd also almost certainly be poorer. Like, I make more money right now than I ever did before but that's from building on the connections I made beforehand. I absolutely had a harder time getting hired after starting HRT, though it could be a coincidence (usual caveats about applying overarching models to individual cases).

@JessTheUnstill@infosec.exchange and it's very up and down. Right now I'm making the most in terms of monthly income, but I was making some of my lowest income for several years in a row prior to this year. I think I do have fairly good reason to think I started getting discriminated against.

@thomasjwebb@mastodon.social Yeah, I feel that. Even just success in my college's CS program. There was only like 10-20% women in there, and I know they got shat on a bunch.
