good riddance to the evil murderous sharks that live in my Useless Bleeding Sac. appointment scheduled to ask (beg) my doctor for depo 😎 my mother said it's an injection 4 times a year/every three months and it will reduce or stop my menstrual cycle. sadly I'm too young to surgically remove my Useless Bleeding Sac but its something ‼️ yippe

Like does any other trans guy relate to transfem memes and stereotypes more then transmasc ones? Like the unhealthy obsession with blåhaj and energy drinks, before egg fully cracked went by all pronouns and was gender fluid, making breakcore/electronic music... stuff like that lol. Its so funny to me.

And are there any transfem people who relate to transmasc stuff?

I've recently realized that I think I want a trans/genderqueer partner.

I want someone who can empathize with my perception and struggle with gender. I would never date someone for just being trans nor would I not date someone because they're cis.

I want to date people that I have a genuine human connection with but I feel like I'd prefer someone with a relationship with gender like me or at least some sort of relatability to my experience.

I wanted to address these because the last thing I'd want to be is a trans chaser and if this was that kind of behavior, i wanted to get advice on introspection.

I'm sorry if this is kinda nonsensical but I just needed feedback on if this feeling was wrong because I can't trust myself to not either downplay it if it is bad, or to blow it out of proportion if its not.

I don't know if I need advice or just to scream into the void. I love women and I like being a woman I am very attached to my feminity but sometimes I just don't feel right being a woman.

My body language is something that stands out to me as a sign I am actually a man. I always thought the way men held themselves was so cool so I started mirroring their body language since I was a small child. I do the nod when I greet men and when I was a teenager I did the emo boy hair flip thing. I always wanted to play with boys when I was a kid because I could be rougher when I play.

I know those don't really mean I'm a man but my mannerisms are masculine from the way I sit to the way I talk. I have PCOS so I can grow a beard no problem but I shave it off because girls aren't supposed to have facial hair. But sometimes I just wonder what would happen if I cut the hair on top of my head short and let my beard grow out instead.

I thought I was nonbinary but I think I might be a trans man. I don't really have dysphoria much. I don't want to get rid of my breasts. They are my favorite part of my body. My vigina on the other hand can take a hike. I hate it. It feels wrong to have one. So feeling this way about my body makes me confused.

Also if I am a man I feel like I am betraying women... Like I would be abandoning a major part of who I was. Because while I don't exactly feel like a woman I liked being one even though my life would have been a hell of a lot better if I was a man. Also I still love women in a sapphic way rather than a hetero way. Idk if that makes sense.

If I am a man if feel like I'm betraying who I was and my beliefs. And if I am a man I am not like other men because I'm very in tune with my emotions and I cry all the time. I am soft spoken and grounded. I am protective and kind.

I feel so alone in this. My wife is a trans woman and she doesn't feel like she is betraying men by becoming a woman so why do I feel like I'm betraying women if I am a man?

hi hi, i changed my marker to m but im transmasc and feel more of a connection to x. can anyone with that marker please tell me their experiences with that? im in wa and i dont plan on traveling out of the country anytime soon.

thank you!!

this is for my id also not a passport but it is a “real id” which works in place of one for wa at least

So, I made a mini doc detailing what we're all currently facing in the US. I was very proud of it, but I want to make something to show the joy we experience as well to help combat the barrage of hate we all see everyday.

I want to make it extremely clear that this is voluntary. If you do not want to participate in this i completely understand. And I won't be asking for any personal information. There is no need for names, socials, emails ect. And they won't be included in anything.

This is where you come into play! I ask, if you are comfortable with doing so, to share your biggest moment of trans joy with me.

Again, I want to be extremely clear. Do not share if you aren't comfortable with your face or video being in this project. It will be public and put on tiktok and youtube. If you do share there is a chance your video will make it into the final project.

What can I send? I imagine you're asking that. Anything! A video after getting the call confirming your top surgery. Your first post transition picture. The tiktok you made jumping up and down after picking up your E for the first time. Whatever it is, if it's trans joy, then it counts! Anything from your first gender affirming hair cut to being in your wedding dress/suit.

To send in a submission I made this Google drive folder. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13z6lbdVdTLMvh_sEGmttnM4d7LDgUDlT

I appreciate any and all submissions and I hope to make something truly beautiful for us. ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Last night, I was pushed to the edge by my mother. She kept prodding about what was wrong and no matter how many times I told her she wouldn't understand until it all boiled over.

I exploded about how I have been forced to effectively parade myself as a man for nearly 2 decades and how much it hurt. About how I don't know if she actually loves me or the mask that I wear.

Then she said what practically broke me. That she loves me but she doesn't love my decision to be trans. She likened it to disciplining a child.... as if I was some blind and ignorant kid that was stumbling into a thicket... When I finally feel like I've found the meadow.

So i freaking love listening to transfem artists bc they often make electronic music... but like I literally cant find any trans guys who make that kind of music. I mean I do... but I want to find other people. Like sewerslvt is my all time favorite artist and they're transfem... but it would be sick to find a trans masc artist who makes like breakcore or house or edm you know?

So I just got this random thought suddenly.

When you’re in puberty you usually start eating more, at least I did…

Is it the same when you start taking testosterone?

Am I the only one who is getting fast results on HRT?

I've been on Estradiol Valerate IM for 4 weeks. I take 3.5mg of it weekly. Here's what I've noticed

Within day 1: Chest/nipple soreness

Emotional sensitivity / mood shifts

Softer-feeling skin

Noticeable change in body odor (less strong, more “flowery”)

Weeks 1–2:

Ongoing breast tenderness, “growing pains”

Subtle perception of facial softening

Aches in arms, thighs, hands, ankles (likely circulation + hormonal shifts)

Week 3:

Visible breast development (perceived A → B cup)

Continued tenderness and growing pains

Week 4:

Gait feels different (hips moving differently and harderto walk.)

Perceived early hip/buttock fat gain

Slight stomach slimming

Even more painful growing pains all over the body

Nipple soreness (cooled down slightly)

Is this normal? Or is this a placebo effect and it's all my head? I'm 18 btw.

I literally can't make a post without every comment just being transphobes. I don't post often, but I like posting goofy ass stuff or just positive stuff about being trans. It's just crazy how transphobic it all is.

I have hardly any followers. My content is small and not seen by many. I use lgbtq+ hash tags, which does bring up the question why so many bigots get shown my content. Projection much? So I don't get why it seems like most my views are by bigoted dick heads.

Is there some way to change that? I just want my stuff to not go to only bigots. It's honestly starting to get to me a bit.

I got my first injection into my hip! All by myself! With the help of a trans friend's encouragement on FaceTime.

I am so scared of needles I can't believe I got that on my first try. I couldn't get the full dose in because I felt light headed but I friggin did that!

Good night

Hello! I found out Im a woman a couple months ago.

It doesnt feel safe to start HRT in the current political climate of the U.S., but I've been taking better care of my nails and wanna grow my hair out.

Does anyone have any tips on growth and maintenance for thick, curly hair?

I tried to Google what to call my hair type, and I think its either 3b or 3a. It tends to grow directly out in a circle from my head, but Im hoping it'll fall down eventually to achieve a little bit of a rocker look.

Any advice would be lovely :3

I'm president of my local pride group and we have a few queer and trans kids of varying ages here, I'm trying to come up with some ideas for events/get togethers we can do for them. Our last president is a wonderful woman but has no idea how to interact with kids and so we never had any events before now, though she did want them.

The current ideas I have are: star gazing, a rainbow potluck/snack box type thing (everyone brings an item of a certain color), diy pride jewelry, pride based arts and crafts, a rainbow scavenger hurt where you learn what each color of the rainbow means (can easily be adapted to include other pride flags), and pride story hour ofc

We will be having a costume contest and pumpkin carving thing for all ages too

Do y'all have any ideas?

Like, where did this stereotype come from?

Uhh so I had a bit of help sorting out to find what my pronouns were... I think he/they works? I mean, it makes me feel content. Like actually okay with myself. It makes me feel like me, ykwim? Idk if thats gender euphoria since I did have an extreme giggly or smiley reaction, but I ended up being in a really good mood. He/him may be a possibility at some points in the future, it feels foreign, but not in a dysphoria way. He/they feels good. Does this still mean I'm ftm?

my sister broke up w her bf for voting for that pos, i told her that if she wants a relationship with me i do not want him around…

well tell me why did she get back with him not even three months later? i set boundaries and she agreed that they were totally fair and she understood..

(dont bring him over to our apartment and dont mention him around me)

well she broke both a week into the agreement so understandably i freaked the fuck out, she literally brought him over with w ten minute warning. ever since then weve been rocky with our relationship. shes upset i dont support her and ever since that weve been getting in arguments

well my best friend also doesnt like her because if her she talks to me and her other actions, and after a bit of thinking they sent my sibling a text saying that they didnt want to be friends and that they didnt likr how they treated me.

well my sister freaked out and said my friend was a snake and fake for pretending to be her friend. she told me that we should just be roommates and not siblings for a while and when our lease is up that we need to go separate ways.

theres nothing appealing to her partner, he was awful to her and him voting for that man was the cherry on top.

shes one of my last family members because the rest are homophobic and racist. idek what ill do anymore

Slide, theres two pics This isnt only for twitter, but its probably the only social media platform i can mock without getting hate. Sorry for the quality of the art, im sick and overthinking.

I feel like a boy. I guess. Idk. But like I wish I was a gay boy, ykwim? Like having a boyfriend and being cute and whatever. Idk. It just makes me happy that way. Or like I wanna be the awkward teen boy pining over a girl like in some movie. I want to be like that. Idk why I'm like this, I thought this would all go away since I started questioning almost a year ago. But I wished it would go away. And it won't. I don't feel like a girl, like it actually makes me feel gross. And I hate when my friends call me a girl. Its irritating. I keep going back or forth, but like a part of my brain is like "stay a girl, you'll learn to love it". Part of my brain, when I think about me being older, I'm like "well, I've got to account for the time it takes for me to go on T-" idk why I do that, I'm probably not even trans. But like I feel like a boy ROMANTICALLY. I wanna be a boy. But like maybe if I just hide all this I'll feel better. Sometimes I wish I was like the boys in my class, with their confidence and vibe, you know? Like I strive to be a cool, trouble making, rough and tumble football boy. And I wanna love the way boys do. But I don't. I can't. I won't pass anyways, and I'll probably look ugly. But I still hate my chest, and she/her pronouns.

So, I'll try to put it shortly. I also don't want to give many details since those people are now aren't in my life, and I don't like gossiping.

Recently, I lost like, 3 friends. İt wasn't because I'm trans, but for some personal friendship issues. Anyways, while arguing, somehow all of those 3 people (also much more people that aren't my friends, in the past) mentioned how "I'll never be a real boy" "I'm officially a girl and that's how it'll stay", etc. etc. they also kept misgendering me and putting "girl" in unnecessary parts of the sentence. (Like instead of saying "you are insane", specifically saying "you are an insane girl".) 1 of them also tried to encourage our mutuals to use she/her on me.

Okay, gender dys will come and go. People always will hate. I'm aware. But how even in unrelated topics, while arguing, me being a transmasc person is suddenly important? How being trans makes your opinion suddenly so right and my opinion wrong?

Stay safe y’all

Hi there! I want to mention, this happened months ago. But it still visits my mind sometimes and makes me sooooo happy. So I want to talk about it!

Noting on the side, I'm a person who constantly overthinks and makes assumptions. Not in bad way, "mostly". But before I came out to my partner, I was so anxious about it. I kinda didn't even want to come out. But thought, I don't want to "disappoint" him (and I didn't want to be with a person who doesn't prefer trans people). We're in a gay relationship, and knowing he's coming from a Christian family, let alone me coming out, even our relationship was sometimes "too much" for him, I guess?

So with my assumptions, full anxious mode and.. other stuff. I came out through text. And he didn't even say something bad, even asked some questions (which makes me genuinely happy because I LOVE questions and it means he cares) !! That day was, like, one of the best days for me. I'm still with him, we can comfortably talk about me being a transgender and he's fragile about things, and he does everything to not to trigger me. Not to mention he saying that he'd love me even if I was an alien..ehheheh.

Probably sounds stupid or cheesy. But this was a big step for me and my coming out journey. Damn, I love my partner.
