incidentally, this applies for trans men who are straight but play with trans women as well
so really it's a universal thing for trans mascs, not just those of us who are gay or bi
That's not a universal thing for all of us. I am not sexually attracted to penises, and a cis woman or a post-op trans woman is not going to necessitate my using birth control.
correct. that's why i said straight trans mascs who play with trans women (probably should have been trans femmes). and therefore the original wording of the post stating gay or bi trans mascs is incorrect (whereas it's important to be inclusive to straight transmascs because some of them have sex with transfemmes, and maybe they think they don't need to worry about it because they're on estrogen or w/e)
straight trans mascs who play with trans femmes are still straight. you may also note that this does not apply universally to trans mascs who play with other trans mascs, but listing every exception for what is a broadly applicable PSA is rather silly
Yeah. I'm overthinking this. I removed the mentions of gay/bi,
Aren't trans women on hormones not able to get people pregnant?
While hrt for transfem ppl often impacts fertility pretty strongly, it's variable enough from person to person that it's a bad idea to assume sperm production is entirely nuked just from taking blockers and/or estrogen.
Edit: hopefully more inclusive language
I will add to this, that even when someone gets a vasectomy,which would be an instant off switch, it takes months for the last ones to get out. I imaging a slow process of producing less would take a long time to fully get out of your system, if you evn stop at all(I don't know enough about hrt)
I didn't know that. Interesting.
Gotcha. Is rewording it to "people who produce sperm" adequate, or is there a different term I should use?
Oh I think you're fine, I was just indicating that I had changed the language within my own reply.
I think your phrasing would work though
