The Erlking Sweet Spot

The period in FTM transition where you're taking the right dose of testosterone, but you're not off of hormone blockers yet.
Named so because, supposedly, your voice is just low enough that you can nail all three parts of the Erlking.

(Some trans men don't experience the Erlking sweet spot due to never being on hormone blockers.)
John: Are you still on hormone blockers?
Carlos: Yeah, I'm in the Erlking sweet spot right now.
John: Oh, you should sing the Erlking!
to get on someone's nerves.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
