You will quickly learn to hate how the cis moderate will continue to talk about you instead of with you even when you are actively engaged in a one on one conversation with them.
a long time ago i bought a trans man a dick prosthetic and now that trans man is passing on the dick to another trans man that decided he wanted it (supposedly you can get them sanitized?)
i love the image of me just chain reacting the whole trans masc community with penises
It's like he's being knighted
moved part of my stuff into new apartment, took my bed apart, will be sharing an apartment with 2 other trans women soon
wow i'm really nervous
that's so exciting tho!!
Happy dead troops day!
Serious question:
How do you tell if you're experiencing gender dysphoria or just regular store brand depression?
It's kinda funny how hard some labels are to apply on myself. Calling myself trans feels wrong, but saying I want to be transfem does not. I'll say all day how much I wish I was born a lesbian but calling myself a transwoman just makes me feel weird. But I can call myself an egg and that sits fine with me. but what do eggs hatch into
Iβm being absolutely crushed by dysphoria right now and have been the last couple days.
I just canβt all of this right now. With all of it being heavily exacerbated by PMDD and Iβm just absolutely crippled by negative emotion right now. I want to cry, but I donβt want my partners to catch on. Iβm also afraid how PMDD me will respond. I donβt want to inadvertently hurt anyone.
actually feeling good for once today and thinking that i might just make it
i stopped taking my hrt for a couple days but i'm back on it and getting back on really boosted my mood
also also i'm going to start trying to avoid /tttt/ and associated subreddits and discords, i was just festering in my self-hatred and being in an environment where other people egg that on is so addictive but also destructive. i do hate myself but i've got to learn not to if i ever want to be happy and i'll never learn how by staying there. i've got really bad self-destructive impulses (hence why i stopped hrt) and i've really got to work on that
finally i'm going to try and push myself to actually do more for my transition in the next week or two. beyond hrt i haven't really done anything else which is probably why i still don't pass at all, i've just been hoping it'll do all the work but it seems like that isn't going to happen for me. i've mostly been too afraid of trying anything more feminine out of the fear that it'll make me look/feel even worse and more masculine, so i still haven't really ever done makeup or voice training or learning fashion etc. so i'm going to actually give makeup a go here really soon
Is there a better feeling than putting on a simple femme outfit and lazing about at home all day while the euphoria washes over you? I don't think there is.
Finally started voice training, can't wait to have a cute girl voice!
I have one! Well, maybe just girl lol.
I talked about it in the last thread but I've also "lost" my boy voice which was mildly disconcerting. Abigail (philosophy tube) did a video recently where she attempted her boy voice but it just sounded like a girl faking a dude voice badly. And now, it fuckin happened to me too lmao
I got hate crimed and now I'm afraid to get on the train.
A couple weeks ago I was cornered on the light rail by a man screaming homophobic slurs at me and threatening to beat me if I said anything or looked at him. Pretty textbook homophobic hate crime, though the guy clearly had some mental health stuff going on. He then got off on the next stop, fortunately, but I'm still pretty shook by the whole situation. Particularly, that this was a pretty full train car and nobody did anything to try and stand up for me - everyone just kept glued to their phones during and after, leaving me to get off the train a crying mess a few stops later. I can't even blame people for not intervening in the moment - there have been a few high-profile stabbings here of good samaritans confronting bigots - but the fact that everyone ignored it after as well... I still think I live in maybe the best city on earth to be trans, but that was devastating.
I got back to work and my team was super supportive, boss drove me home, it was nice. It was also right before my planned vacation with the bf's family, so I got to start that a day early.
But when I returned to work this morning, I realized I'm still kind of scared. My normal bus to work is usually crowded enough that nobody can get up to anything, but I used to really prefer the rail and now I don't know if I can keep riding it. I want to stop at the store to grab groceries on my way home, but that would mean getting on the big unprotected train car and idk if I'm up for that.
Shit sucks. I've been out since 2008 and experienced lots of little transphobic aggressions, but this is the worst I've ever dealt with and the only time to really stick to me like this.
In brighter news the rest of this month has been lovely. I went to my bf's hometown to spend a week with his family, came home and got super fucking sick (that part was actually awful, I was bedridden with a double ear infection), but got better just in time for us to spend a weekend at the beach with my family. Feels good finally having a partner where both families like us, very new to me.
Actually had a decent conversation come from grindr and got her phone number so we could talk without being bombarded by dick pics constantly. A fellow transwoman and she seems pretty rad.
Update: got a cute date Saturday
I had a crush on boxxy when I was in middle school but looking back... I think it was gender envy lmao
Got maam'd yesterday because of my hair π completely boymoding, so got sir'd as soon as I turned around, but I will take it anyway haha
Wake up in the morning and my stubble has grown back in.
Reach past anything colorful in my closet to one of the four button downs I wear to work. This one is gray.
Brush back my pretty hair until it's behind my ears and within the bounds of acceptable male presentation.
I put on the tie. Everyone will call me sir.
45 hours of every week.
Randomly bumped into a pre-transition friend while fully fem-presenting and he was completely normal about it and we just chatted for a while.
I'm usually a bit nervous about meeting old friends in case some of them are weird about it, but at the same time it's so fun when I can show them the real me and how far I've come.
Cw vent.
Fuck it I think I might actually try a dating app. Is there any app that isn't completely terrible for trans women?
Got some padded push up bras and it feels like I'm cheating a bit, but they have such an amazing impact on my silhouette, I love it so much. Hope I'll just look like this naturally in a year or two.
I've been skirting the issue for some time now, but I'm just gonna come out and say it
There, it's done
Reflecting on the feelings of possibilities opening and limitations I set on myself fading when I started the first year of my transition. I need that energy and belief that I can move mountains again
That relentless and exhausted state took me to the finish line once, so why not twice? What's the worst that happens, I don't make it? That's never been a reason not to try
Uhh, I just noticed that my posture when standing up is different now. My centre of balance seems to have shifted forward a bit. Also my back is more curved and my ass more pronounced π³ And my legs just kinda close on their own, it's actually the most comfortable way to sit now. This has to be hip rotation / pelvic tilt, right??
Hey everyone!!! I hope yous will have a great week this week, much love!!! π³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈββ§οΈπ₯°π₯°π₯°π³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈββ§οΈ
