@CharlotteEowyn@chaosfem.tw so in my case it was partly about storage back in the 00s, surgery was 2018 but I'd been on a GnRH for years beforehand and certainly had no business assuming I was fertile...
...and the question I found myself looking at was: was I really up to looking after kids even with a loving and supportive (and, sorry, honest) partner? If I had to ask myself the same thing now (we're the same age) I'd add: for 18+ years?

@flippac@types.pl I couldn't afford fertility storage and I was worried I'd loose HRT. So no, I didn't store anything. And no, probably I'd face the same issue. It doesn't mean I don't regret it. It's part of the human condition. Something I did always want and gave up and now...regret. But it's a valid question. A lot of people with kids regret it. I don't think I would have. I'll never know.

@CharlotteEowyn@chaosfem.tw For me, the answer was a clear no, and there's fuck all room made for us by society or even most of trans culture to mourn that while we make our other choices
