The school I go is called the Chinese Shao-lin Center. As for styles, we learn basically al the Chinese styles. An abbreviated list is:

External and Animal Styles:
Northern Fist
Southern Fist
Whirling Palm
Tiger (of the Flying, Golden, White, and Black variety)
Crane (various styles; I only know a little White)
Snake (Golden Snake is the highest-level style of our school - only our grandmaster knows it)
Leopard (various styles thereof)
Dragon (various)
Eagle Claw
Praying Mantis (various styles)
Monkey (various)
Shao-lin bird
Eight Drunken Immortals
Hua Mountain Fist
...and a bunch of others that I've forgotten

Internal Styles:
Tai Chi (Yang, Chen, and Wu styles)
Pa Kua (Classical, all 8 animals, and others likely)
Hsing-I (5 elements, 12 animals, and probably others)
Meteor fist (I don't really know much about this one)

Weapons:
Staff
Single/Double nunchaku
Short stick
Chinese broadsword
Straight sword
Spear
Kwan Tao
Three-sectional staff
Sai
Tiger-hook swords
TaMo canes
Butterfly swords
The various, crazy-looking Pa Kua weapons
...A bunch of other random ones that are less common.

So, yeah...we learn a lot of different styles. The one that I'm working on perfecting and getting to a useful level of competence right now is my drunken style

Sorry about disappearing after that last post, I thought I was gonna be at my cousin's for longer than I was.

So, as of yesterday I now have a therapist! She doesn't specialize in gender or anything, but she's pretty cool about it and she may be able to point me in the direction of doctors that can help with hormones and stuff! Also she might be able to help me work through some other problems I have (like that thing where I take hours to fall asleep because my mind keeps racing).

Hi Bianca!

And yay for good therapists! I'm glad you've finally found someone who works for you! And this was in a different post of yours, but yay for getting introduced as yourself !

So thanks for the compliment ^_^
My "incredibly varied collection of pony-shirts" includes every single one of the two shirts you see on the pictures, by the way.
I was just testing you ! Well, it's two more pony shirts than I have, so comparatively it's a very large and varied collection.

Anyway, concerning makeup i watched a whole bunch of videos. Most of them are specifically for transwomen. I can't recall which were most useful, but here is a bunch i saved in a playlist, so maybe they are helpful:


Also, with the little experience i have i can say that a bit of makeup can already make you look much more feminine. Don't overdo it, especially if you want a natural look.
Other than that it's probably best to just experiment a bit. With the help of YT videos you should get quite a good impression about how and what to do in general.
Aaand, saved . Thanks for those! They will be very helpful! I have a good friend (the first one I talked to about my gender issues, actually) who is a master at make-up-ery, but she's very busy, so I haven't been able to meet up with her for a day of experimentation. So now I'll take matters into my own hands!
