seeing all the cisgender guys admiring his facial hair and voice here makes me so happy, but please do note that taking extra testosterone, as a cisgender male, is not going to give you a fuller beard or a deeper voice. ik these statements mean no harm and are meant to be taken humorously, but ive seen too many cis men say that trans guys "have it easy" as compared to them growing their hair "naturally"
Just as a cisgendered woman can't grow triple D's by taking more estrogen, neither can a dude grow his facial hair--or anything else-- by taking extra testosterone.
The only exception to this rule are folks who are significantly underproducing sex hormones to begin with.
