Autograph Blue Boxers
MOT/2024/NDOTC/EDIN/046
Tag The first pair of boxers I bought myself, in the summer of 202019. At the time I didn't realise I was trans, that I was "allowed" to just be trans if I wanted to. I didn't know what I was experiencing was gender euphoria, but I felt so good wearing them. [Formatting note: The 2nd "20" in "202019" has been struck through]
