Pro-tip I wish I knew earlier: If you don't like your gender you can just leave it.
Just thinking today about how trans people have been more friendly and helpful to me than my own flesh and blood family has ever been. Imagine being a transphobe and punching down on people that have beautiful hearts. Couldn't be me (plus kill all transphobes).
chokers are so cute. how did I go most of my life without wearing them?
I think the cure to my dysphoria will be shooting fascists
shooting up E
shooting up fascists
Both, Both is good
i feel like a she/they except that i actually don't like they/them pronouns and this will never make sense to the cishets
The cishets simply do not possess the range.
For my entry in the girl rot championship: my dad had to yell at me to shower today
I couldn't get a trans flag in my name, so I got ~~five~~ seven pronouns instead.
Pronoun maxxing.
titty talk
holy fuck it's been like 7 weeks on E and I already have small tits. these are not "i'm just amab and chubby" these are TITS. they have the shape and the breast tissue and the sensitive nipples i have tits already and they're growing by the week holy FUCK
yeag im definitely a girl thing
Just celebrated 1 year on E last week by getting myself some beautiful boots and getting a bunch of (mostly) trans friends together for dinner. First time I have ever felt like I was part of a community. It made me so happy, ya’ll.
I know it's a dead end but some days more than others I really resent that I wasnt just born a cis girl. Like I know I've felt this way for so long. Like since I was a kid. But it really does just kinda suck. I like being trans for sure though it's just.. it's so much work and I feel like I missed so much
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I FIGURED IT OUT!!! TRANS FLAG IN NAME
I can't wrap my mind around someone being wierd about a trans person being a lesbian. Like who wouldn't want to be femme and date femme people?? That seems natural to me. I can't understand why someone would want something else. So you like how women look but don't want to look that way yourself? Oookay.
I love how a discussion post on i saw the tv glow can hit the front page of this website, god the culture here fucks so hard
talking about dysphoria?
Dysphoria has definitely become like a background noise kind of thing lately. Constant, but low intensity. It feels a little wierd to say it but this is so much better then the random spikes between "I'm completely fine" and "holy shit I'm dying".
Has this happened to any of you? ~~is this a sign I'm cis~~
Doing voice lessons while driving around for work is like being paid to trans my gender.
What are the chances FromSoft is brave enough to make Miquella actually trans, instead doing the weird "trans in every way that matters, but not trans"-trope again?
Today was a fairly rough day for me. Haven't had this rough of one in quite a while.
Misgendering and dysphoria
I got misgendered for the first time in roughly 9 or 10 months today. The worst part is is that it was one of my wives that misgendered me. It was an obvious mistake as I wasn't even in the room nor talking to her and she was playing with her dog, but holy fuck did it sting. It sent me into a rabbit hole of dysphoria that I haven't felt in an extremely long time. It's been made significantly worse by the fact that it was one of my wives that did it. Still reeling from it. Just find myself staring off into space ready to cry out of the blue. I hate this feeling and hope it goes away soon.
Might have been "yes ma'am'd" by someone for the first time since starting HRT? Funnily was someone whose known me since before I started. Pretty sure they were just used to reacting to my boss though. Also I didn't hear it, but just overheard someone else pointing out they said "yes ma'am". Anyways, all honorifics are all unwanted, so not something I'm exactly happy about. At least I don't think I've been "yes sir'd" this summer and only "mister'd" by like one person.
I should post more often. I still have unbearable posting anxiety so maybe if I challenge myself to make one post a day here, I'll actually follow through. My therapist wants me to journal more and this counts, right?
In other news, I go to the HRT Dr in 48 hours. It's a bit of a drive from my house, but it's a trans/NB owned clinic that employs nothing but trans/NB people. It's taken 4 months to get an appointment, but the day is nearly here.
talking about my tits again for the 215,752nd time:
oh my fucking god i have very small tits now. it's been like 6 weeks on E I genuinely didn't think it would happen this fast but they are sore and kind of itchy and visibly growing holy fuck
unrelated to my tits but my roommate said she even noticed my facial fat start to redistribute as well and while i don't think i look any more feminine just yet I swear I do look a little different now
oh how many years of my life i wasted not being on E, this is the best thing I've ever done for myself
wtf it happened again? Some guy at work called me "ma'am" before taking a closer look at my name tag. This is like 2 weeks after some other person had to ask my pronouns?. I guess I'm more androgynous than I thought? I've barely done anything to "transition" and I'm closeted at work, but apparently I'm making some subconscious progress?
Pride coinciding with the southern hemisphere's darkest mouths means myself and everyone i care about is really going through it right now. Yay
Going out in a cute outfit today.
Hope nobody mistakes me for a girl. That would be SO embarrassing~
Took my first e shot saturday and I'm feeling great so far, though I do get that it will take awhile before I really start to notice anything. Next step is getting my body hair under control.
So my visit went great. That clinic is incredible and the Dr was amazing. It was overwhelmingly queer hahaha. Several different pride flags were hug up, and the fence outside was painted in pride colors.
They also run a tight ship. Which was great since I was extremely anxious. I had to be buzzed in, they had a strict no phones out in the lobby policy, and I'm guessing the appointments are staggered because I didn't see any other patient there. Though I could hear other patients come and go from other exam rooms. They even had a separate, secluded parking area and entrance from the rest of the medical building complex thing they are attached too.
I did the usual front counter check in stuff, then I was immediately taken to an exam room to wait. All of the staff introduced themselves with pronouns, and they were so nice. All in all 10/10 worth the wait.
All my friends are complimenting how much I am improving at doing my makeup. Really feels affirming, as I only see what I can do better.
Not even out of the house today and already feel like crap. Got dressed, looked at myself in the mirror, instantly crushed with the dysphoria hammer.
Determined to make it to pride but the outfit I had saved for today is gonna haveta wait for another day when I can bear to look at myself.
being trans feels like i'm the child in a divine custody battle between Mars and Venus
just got all my trans girl essentials in the mail: Skirt, panties, bralette, IPL, Julia Serrano literature, cute tank tops, the works
Tonight I had a 15 minute consult call with a therapist who's also trans and seems pretty based. First session is on Thursday :>
transphobia
My mom look at my feet and said "you know you can't do wudu' with nail polish on?"... it was Merbromin that I had on foot after hitting a rock too hard. anyhow it was odd that her brain skipped straight from "Why is my MANLY MAN SON wearing WOMANLY nail polish" into "you can't do wudu' with that on".
Mild dysphoria
I'm very happy about and grateful for my transition so far, but I wish I could just get ALL the feminization right now and not have to wait for like two years. It so loooong
The day has finally arrived. I'll have to leave soon since it's almost two hours by car to get there. Even with the distance, I'm still incredibly grateful to hav a clinic like this close enough to drive to.
Trying to get advice without making it too obvious when what I'm going to do: I'm telling you now I have plans that I cannot share with you right now because the haters will sabotage me.
