...Aren't you still pre-T?

>>6724929
yep, waiting for a call telling me when my first shot is though.

>>6724530
>What do you do for autumn comfy?
I make tea, drink hot chocolate, wear heavy sweaters, lay in bed, and enjoy the rain. It rains here pretty exclusively in spring and autumn, so it's pretty atmospheric.

>>6724530
>autumn comfy
I can wear layers again to hide my gross body.

For comfy:
Running in the rain
Fishing stuff
Squirrel hunting
Smell leaves, mushrooms and stuff
Fireplace and blankie
I swear I'm not a dog

Can I hang out around ftmg even though I'm nonbinary? I used to like this thread when I identified as male. It's comfy.

as long as you share similar concerns and discussion topics, i don't see why not

>>6725354
Just curious what gender you live as?
Most nonbinary people I've actually seen just do regular a FtM transition anyway, you'd think there would be tendency towards androgyny but it's all hairy bald dudes with vaginas

>>6725531

I currently don't have the ability to transition so I'm living as female. I'm not really sure what I wanna do once I finish college and everything though. My gender expression sways so often that it would probably be practical to live as a woman, but I hate that. Yet I don't really wanna live as a guy either. I wanna go on T eventually so I should probably live as a man. If it were up to me I'd live as neither but that's not how life works.

>>6725505

I'm used to people complaining about nonbinary people, especially on this site,

>>6725531
i think everyday functional androgyny would be pretty hard to maintain unless you got lucky with genetics

people are generally gonna read you as one sex or another, i assume if you're using testosterone in the same way a regular trans guy would, presenting male just takes some of the difficulty out of regular life

>>6725383
Aren't you a cis chaser? If so I don't know why you're even here, since you claim to be straight.

>>6725354
I don't have any problem with it as long as you don't go "muh gender nihilism, muh transition is useless, muh plant/plant/plantself pronouns".

Actually because I don't feel comfortable with male pronouns before I start HRT, I tell those who ask to use singular they. Maybe I'll keep that up after starting T, maybe not. We'll see.

>>6725156
This. This is all i need.

>>6725568

What do you mean "chaser"?

>>6725576
I mean you want to stick your dick in a ftm, or at least that's the rumor.

>>6725603
oh don't worry, he wouldn't dare fuck an ftm, swg's only interested in women who dress like men and look androgynous

Are you straight or bi? If bi you could probably land a pre-transition ftm and carry them over from butch mode to passing. You're going through the same stuff yourself so you'll have a lot in common.

Oh also, to answer your other insinuation, no, I don't see transsexuals as anything other than the gender they identify (of which there are 2), unless they are closeted or deliberately non-passing. The FtMs here are, to me, for all intents and purposes, men. I flirt with people here or whatever because it's funny and jokes, so before you get Tumblr on me, I'm not interested in sticking the tip in your plum pudding.

As a side note: that's why I think pansexuality is bollocks, because it implies trannies are distinct from the gender they present as. https://youtu.be/EActHOQq0bI?t=1m20s

>>6725354

there's a lot of people who aren't transguys here, no difference if you are... but you're anonymous anyway so why bother saying it?

am i the only one who finds it odd when people out of context announce what they are? everyone's just gonna assume you're a transguy when you post anyway, and unless it's relevant to the conversation i can't imagine why it matters... or why you need permission, if everyone said "nah transguys only" that'd stop you when there's nothing anyone can actually do? i don't get that shit...

> I'm nonbinary?
Curious how do people come to this conclusion? Is it because they don't like certain gender roles? I ask because I've also seen nonbinary people who aren't trans either so, it would seem so.

>>6726841
using my eyes and the divine light of reason

though i think this one black kid in school said that i was cute in a non-gay manner 7-9 years ago and i looked just as shit then as i do now if not more so

>>6726072
I'm bi, but I don't think I could date a pre-T ftm. I feel happy when I see pictures and hear other people talk about their transitions, however I don't want to be intimately close to that period in someone else's life. I am acquainted/friends with almost a full score of other ftms - commiseration with a platonic distance is sometimes even more than enough.

Also, swg just touched upon it and I've seen other people mention the phenomenon ITT, but there's often ~something~ about pre-T ftms that feels different from butch girls. And sure, the primary suspect is just a mental shift in the perceiver. Then again I got "clocked" as ftm by both close friends and people who didn't know me that well before I was even out to myself. And lesbians don't like me but bi girls do.

>>6726743
I would kill them both and live as an outlaw, but that's just my advice.

not wanting to appear male or female
disgust at secondary sex characteristics

>>6726694
Know how classic transsexuals have this strong sense of actually being the opposite sex on some level, some people have this about being inbetween or neither

God knows where exactly it comes from, some sort of impostor syndrome or what

>>6726881
>I would kill them both and live as an outlaw
I don't need this kind of publicity, I just want to live the quiet stealth life.

>>6726959
It doesn't really meet the diagnostic criteria since BDD is more than just not liking how you look like a lot

Although I have no clue what the internet means by body dysmorphia, maybe it's like casual definition fetish versus medical definition of fetish thing

>>6726987
its just the same as it is for binary trans people, except instead of wishing you had secondary sex characteristics of the opposite gender, you wish you had a body that was more in between, not distinguishable as either sex

>>6726997
are you implying that binary trans people have bdd or did you quote a wrong post

>>6727017
probably a lot of them
i think im just confusing dysphoria and dysmorphia
which i guess are actually different

>>6726694

Gender has nothing to do with gender roles. I just feel like I shouldn't be seen as male or female. It's hard to explain dysphoria.

Bi, probably? This whole trans thing makes it confusing. Also like that other anon said, dealing with my own transition is more than enough to keep my hands full. Hell, I'm having trouble with my current relationship.

>>6726398
Heh. You think I'm in danger of getting all triggered on you? Don't worry about it fampai.

Pansexuality also acknowledges all the special snowflake genders (at worst) and the inbetweeners (at best).

You don't think being between the two is a legitimate way to be?

>>6724530
Guys are ftms actually more likely to go bald?
This is one factor that would make me seriously consider low-dosing T to try and avoid it.

i appreciate nero's stance on christianity, and i like that caligula was crazy and excessive and inefficient as an emperor (technically nero was largely inefficient too)

i wouldn't say i liked them as leaders cuz nah, but as people i find them both intriguing... and caligula in particular cuz he was crazier, i typically find people like that more interesting than people who did great things, and i find it interesting when people who are terrible at it are in positions of leadership

what do they taste like? are they comparable to anything more widely eaten?

i'm vegan actually, so i'll never taste it... i'm just curious, i'm pretty partial to foods cooked with wine though...

>>6728829

It's a rich flavour. I can't compare it to anything vegan since... that's impossible. But it's a rich sort of flavour, depending on how you cook it.

Red meat similar to grouse but not as dry. Rich and gamey. The flavour depends a lot on what the bastard eats though. If they eat a lot of hazel nuts the flavor is creamy and a bit like coffee, so I like to hunt in hazel woods.

i know what meat tastes like... my family eats it, and i was raised eating it... i chose to be vegetarian cuz i can't enjoy eating meat (not cuz of animal rights or some belief that people shouldn't eat meat though), and i'm vegan (well except honey, but it's easier to just use the term particularly if someone else is feeding me) now cuz when i got sick i ended up with a bunch of food allergies and eggs and dairy fuck me up to a point where it isn't even worth dealing with a bad reaction to have either even in small amounts occasionally... so i could compare it to something i remember, just not anything i would eat...

Have you tried venison? Gamey meat can't really be compared to anything storebough unfortunately. Sorry about the food allergies. I have IBS, so diet is always an issue for me. I guess I can relate in that manner.
What do you usually eat?

>>6728861

grouse? i figured it'd be kinda gamey and similar to red meat, just cuz that's what they look like they'd taste like... makes sense that the flavour changes like that though (probably also why they're not eaten at all in nyc cuz they just live off of garbage and things people throw them there) i never really thought about it... that sounds cool though, how long have you been hunting?

i wouldn't personally hunt cuz it's a waste when you don't eat meat... which is how i feel about fishing, but i go on fishing trips fairly often just to get drunk by lakes and rivers and whatnot... never been on a hunting trip though

Been hunting for a few years. I like the idea of providing for myself, and I don't like the meat industry. Also it teaches me a lot about what I eat. It would be great to be completely self-sufficient some day.

i have actually... my dad thought it would be a funny joke to feed everyone it as a surprise when i was a kid, he told my mother it was beef and had her make a stew, and then after dinner he announced what we actually ate... wasn't a fan honestly, but the way it tastes was pretty memorable considering...

i have stuff wrong with my intestines too which limits me a bit further sometimes, but i'm pretty used to it at this point and my s/o is a great cook so i don't really have a chance to feel like i'm missing anything... i typically eat a lot of fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds, and some grains... i get fucked up reactions to wheat so i can't have bread, which sucked the most to give up honestly, but i've gotten pretty used to that too...

but stuff like pic related (stole the pic from my s/o) that's eggplant with chickpeas, tomatoes, lentils, quinoa etc in between the layers and on top that's toasted oats with idk i think it had black pepper and basil in it... no idea what else... well other than the purple and sweet basil but that's obvious considering they're on top too... it's a pretty typical dinner example though... he always actually plates my food and garnishes it and whatnot

>>6729013

that's cool... and actually part of why i garden, it's nice being able to just walk outside and grab your own food + there's that weird part of you that feels more fulfilled somehow... i like wandering around and looking for wild food too, get to try shit you wouldn't otherwise... like we had a bunch of daylily buds a little while back, and wineberries, and wild mushrooms etc ... if i ate meat i'd probably be into hunting for the same reason

+ yeah the meat industry is pretty fucked up, not even just to the animals but the workers too, i had seen something a while back about people wearing diapers to work at meat packing places cuz they can't leave their spot for hours on end... and then like the conditions of the food and whatnot (though that's also not why i don't eat meat... as bad as it is...) i find it weird how people focus so hard on the animals and completely ignore the fact that there's humans being treated really poorly by the industry too...

>>6729026

+ i don't eat meat cuz i don't like touching it (won't cook it either, can't touch it to cook it... especially not raw... i've cooked it once in my life for a cat, and that was like a nightmare, but it was his first day in the house as a kitten and he was scared so i was trying to win him over... it worked), i used to have to cut it into tiny pieces to dissect it and finding any fat or veins made it all inedible... i have a hard time chewing it too, like... i'd obsessively think about how it's flesh is similar to my own since it's an animal, and that'd just be an all consuming repeated thought and about half the time i'd end up spitting it out like "nah can't do this," but i tried to force myself for a while cuz i knew my reasons were mostly weird and ocd related... but it's something i couldn't get past so not eating it at all works out better

Your s/o sounds like a keeper. S/he obviously cares about you.
Would be nice to have a live in chef. That food looks delicious.

Yeah gardening and gathering is awesome. I have shitloads of raspberries in the garden and woods with blueberries above my house. Some redcurrants too, and a sad tiny cherry tree. I try to gather stuff when I go hunting too, but mushrooms scare me. I managed to poison myself twice on mushrooms because I'm a moron. Other stuff is fine though, and chantarelles.

>people wearing diapers to work
That's insane, but it makes sense when factories only see their workers as part of the machinery. Pushing their boundaries saves pennies, so they will do it unless laws regulate worker's rights. I've heard a similar story about a local slaughterhouse where all the workers were immigrants. The boss forced them to work 48 hour shifts non-stop for shit pay or else they got fired/deported. One guy fell asleep and got his hand mangled in some machine. It got in the news so the workers got compensated, but most situations like that just get covered up.

The fact that they work with processing living creatures makes it that much worse. When I hunt at least I can make sure everything is done properly both in terms of treating the animal right and how the meat is processed. No antibiotics and drugs and stuff is also great. We really have no idea what that stuff will do to people in the long run.

he's another transguy, i didn't know that when we first started dating though (i'm bi so i didn't care and he's attractive regardless so that's whatever for me)... i've known him more than half my life, we were best friends and considered each other siblings before we got together... we're technically engaged, but we have been forever and just haven't actually gone through with it, mostly cuz we figure that it doesn't really make any difference we've been together for about 12 years and were friends for longer and we've been through a lot of shit together and all that... so definitely planning on keeping him

it is great yeah... i really fucking appreciate it... i was actually telling him yesterday when he was making a bunch of different kinds of experimental vegan sushi for dinner (it all turned out great btw) that i was lucky getting to eat all the things he cooks... i cook for him and i'll cook for the birds, but i don't typically cook for myself... like i make him breakfast every morning so like he had almond pancakes with a strawberry basil topping and orange honey syrup... and i just decided to eat and was just like "eh grapes work," but he's the same with that cuz when he's feeding himself he'll just eat whatever is easier

we had wineberries all over here, where i used to live there were a bunch of blueberries... we have wild grapes and i have some wine grape vines (they're still young though) in the yard... basil (purple and sweet), cilantro, peppers, peppermint and sweet mint, radishes, scallions (scallions are great cuz you can replant them when you use them and they'll grow back and you can just repeat that for a bit) squash (which is great cuz you can eat the flowers + the squash itself) and idk some other stuff kale and swiss chard and whatnot

i was worried about being poisoned so it took us forever to actually try any wild mushrooms, i was worried that first time, but he was gonna eat it so i figured "why not?"

how sick did you get?

i think it's funny that people only give a shit about those workers if it's immediate news, otherwise it's whatever... though i suppose part of it is probably a tendency to assume that it's more isolated and not just something that happens throughout

i actually respect that about hunting + like you said with all the shit that's in food if you can do it then you're better off

>>6729147

i don't think i do... i'll have to look, he's my niece's cat now, i don't have him... we just have 3 birds (pic related is gypsy, she's the tamest, but we have 2 budgies too) and a fish...

i got him when i was in my first apartment then a bunch of shit happened he ended up living at my mother's bunch more shit happened and then my s/o and i ended up there... when we left we only took our birds cuz my niece loves him and he had been more of a house cat rather than mine so it seemed more fair to him + he has my bro's cat to chill with and likes the dogs

i'm not really a cat person anyway... i thought i was more of one cuz i grew up with one, but when it comes to the actual care and shit i'm just not good with it... he's happier there anyway there's all these strays where i'm at now and he likes laying around eating grass

i've had people tell me i'm eccentric and whatnot, but idk... i guess it must be true since i hear it often, but everything in my life is ordinary to me including myself so... suppose it's different

The world according to Milo Stewart, who self-identifies as: A transman, nonbinary, asexual, otherkin, a feminist, and a communist:

- Biological sex is a non-factual, sexist social construct.
- Pride is bad because displaying sexuality might trigger asexuals.
- You can be trans without ever having any dysphoria.
- You can be a transman even if you aren't physically or mentally a male and don't want to be either of those things.
- "He" can be used as a feminine pronoun and "she" can be a masculine person.
- If you don't belong to a certain minority group, you are always discriminatory against it.

This is where that shit goes.

I know how so many of you are opposed to PIV sex, however... would you be opposed to us guys giving you kisses on your cute little wet boipussies?

Just super curious, I hope that the lot of you respond to this so I can get a good estimate for the IRL.

>>6729306

which latino?

>>6729182

i was sorta where you were at a while back... i've always seen top surgery as necessity though since that's the worst for me, like it's not an option it's something that has to be done... with hormones though i wavered back and forth with the idea and mostly just considered a lower dose and not lifelong treatment (the idea of being bald and dickless and 5' tall is just... nope i think i'd feel worse about myself and that it'd intensify dysphoria for me) mostly due to my voice being second worst for me... it's not really high or anything but that doesn't matter

now though i've got all these health issues so i'm not sure hrt is even an option considering the potential side effects in conjunction with having some pretty shit wrong with me that predisposes me to even more health issues to begin with and it's sorta... life might've made that decision for me you know?

ultimately it's about what you can best live with... there isn't one way to handle the shit that's wrong with you or a one size fits all treatment... if you can be comfortable and happy that's what matters... just don't entirely write off something that might help you without careful consideration cuz ultimately hrt + surgery is what typically works the best for transpeople

>>6729421

a lot of people think stupid shit i don't agree with and i haven't killed any of them... why would i start with someone who isn't even in my vicinity?

>>6729182

Damn, that sound comfy as fuck. Is autumn prime game season?

You hunt things other than squirrels? I like myself a good venison steak, not that I ever kill anything. My country bumpkin relatives hook me up.

Did any of you store eggs before hormones? How long can you be on T before that becomes impossible? and finally, does anyone know what the process of removing the eggs from you is? I'm assuming it's not surgery but I don't really know.

>>6730065
storing eggs involves taking high does of female hormones to induce ovulation. then a procedure is done to retrieve the eggs. i think it involves a needle and it's under local anesthesia.

testosterone doesn't harm your eggs and if you think you can handle the dysphoria, you can go off of T and conceive or get your eggs retrieved so another person can surrogate.

>>6729147
Where do you live?

>>6730162
UK

>>6730145
So I can get them retrieved at any point? Also, I thought that T made you completely infertile? But you can still conceive?

>>6730181
T doesn't make you infertile. There's a small chance, but most trans men who try to conceive are able to do so after they go off of testosterone and ovulation resumes.

>>6730181
>I thought that T made you completely infertile?

not completely

there's been more than a handful of accidental pregnancies for people on t

so use an iud or diaphragm or whatever if you really into piv

>>6729446
Not into guys so obviously nope, but with a girl, if I liked her a lot and trusted her then I'd be fine with that

Autumn is good. The babies have grown up and left home, and the grown ups fatten themselves up on nuts, mushrooms and berries. I find that the meat taste best a few weeks after nut harvests have started because it gives them time to get an extra layer of fat on. It's the fat that gives flavor so it makes a lot of difference.

I've hunted rabbit, wood pidgeon, crow, duck, grouse, mink, martin, snake, fox (normal hunting, not british insane version), crocodile, tropical bats and lizard.

Venison is great. I don't hunt big game because I don't like firearms, and don't want to invest in a big boy hunting bow, but I get venison through contacts like you do. Small game works fine though. I don't really eat a lot of meat.

>>6729341
First time it was really bad. I was on a hunting trip alone and was dead sick for 2 days with vomiting and bloody diarea. Didn't leave camp and had to save water so got really dehydrated. Scared me a lot but after the two days I got better and could get more water.
Second time was stomach problems and no blood, but I got some auditive hallucination, hearing voices plus light flashes so it was probably amanita muscaria from what I gather.

>>6729374
People tend to care more when it gets attention. The reason the meat industry can get away with so much is because they work hard on PR to tone down the processing part. Very few people do research on what happens between happy cow.jpg and cellofane wrapped meat, and think slaughter is just about cutting up the animals. Companies don't even have to label their product with ingredients like meat slurry or pink slime, so consumers are kept in the dark.

>>6729421
I don't have time to care about how the attention-whores of this generation act up.

Honestly I used to care a lot about what people thought of trans people in general and was embarassed about the social ramificaiton of one of these non-dysphoric, didn't even try to transition, "transman but also nonbinary," transgenders spreading misinformation and people mistaking me for one of them but I realized that most people don't care what transtrenders do/say. Most people really don't care about or notice anything that isn't directly related to them, including knowing anything what transgender people are and are not.

>>6730065
Before I started t my endo asked if I wanted to sell my eggs for money, I said no, I kind of wished I said yes. I really could need the money also I like thinking that there's someone out there who is made out of me (as weird as it sounds). Mostly because I'm a redhead and it makes me sad there's not many of us, it would be awesome if the kid had my hair. I'm never having kids or adopting though so it's too late for now.

Pre T? Hang with fatties and catch pcos for beard gains.

As for muscles, someone once told me that if you pick heavy things up and put them back down many many times.... muscles happen.
Try that.

Anyone else suffer from health anxiety when it comes to transitioning? I always hear T will screw with your health and I'm freaked out about surgery.

>>6730543
I can't really help you because it scares me too, but I've come to the point where I'm more worried about the damage I'll do to myself if I don't transition. Not going through with it is not really a choice anymore.
Try to see the positive aspects along with the negative ones. Is it worth it to you?

>>6730521
T will affect your health but not by much if you're healthy. A lot of the scary side effects from t they say is shit like heart attack, strokes, is because your blood gets a little thicker on t, and honestly it doesn't really even matter that much. If you bother to do basic things like exercise and eat vegetables you will still be healthier than the vast majority of the population, fiftey percent of which are naturally "on" testosterone. The other shit is having increased risk of breast and ovarian cancer, which is scary, but you're probably going to get them both removed eventually anyway so by the time you're old enough to get that cancer there'll barely be much cancer risk.

>>6730585
>and honestly it doesn't really even matter that much
Except it's on top of everything, not as a result of everything. Cis men have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and we get that risk on top of any risk we get from lifestyle. Also, females are hit harder by lifestyle choices like smoking and drinking, so if you do that on top of switching your system from estrogen to T, you stand at higher risk of fucking your body up than both cis men and women living the same lifestyle.

>>6730350

that sounds like it was fucking scary as hell... can't imagine being in that situation, especially alone ... that'd probably put me off of mushrooms completely for a bit... like the time i took zoloft by accident and couldn't bring myself to take pills for about a year (long story) ... couldn't say "no" to oxys though and up so that ended that... up until that point i only had access to benzos so it was easier to say "no" ... with opiates though i can't even turn them down

the other time doesn't sound entirely bad... idk sometimes pcp could get me like that with the hearing shit and whatnot, and i did that for like 6-8 months or some shit every day... had some weird highs with that and a lot of throwing up highs too... the light flashes i probably wouldn't notice, get those anyway... but yeah i'd probably experience that and just think that was alright

dumbest nature related shit that ever happened was when my s/o and i felt like making a fire and there was mountain laurel wood in it... the next day we both felt sick and my s/o looked some shit up and we found out that mountain laurel was highly toxic and could easily kill you when inhaled... folk remedy for the poisoning for inhaling the smoke is whiskey... which is actually what we were drinking by the fire... we had decided to binge drink that night too and drank half of one of those giant plastic jugs of cheap whiskey... thought that was kinda funny

i guess maybe i've just had that info thrust at me a lot cuz i've never sought it out and yet i've heard it... hard to give a shit about the meat industry when you don't eat meat you know? unless i guess you're one of those vegans or vegetarians who swore it off cuz of that... idk, i'm high...

>>6725568
Swg is alright with most people here. Most people in here can take jokes, too.

Even though most people in here probably also believe nonbinary to be bs also, but well.

>>6730605
So don't smoke or be an alcoholic. I don't know what your problem is. If you're constantly stressing yourself out this much about how t will affect your health it's going to hurt you worse than t ever will just fyi. Stress will literally increase your risk of just about everything.

>>6730639
> So don't smoke or be an alcoholic.

your advice made me laugh...

>>6729446
Too dysphoric. You wouldn't even ever see it.

>>6730639
Not OP and I'm not stressing. It's just important to know the facts and be aware of the risks. I know a lot of transguys have a tendency to do all the macho stuff to show the world they're real men, and that lifestyle can do some real damage. The info needs to be put out there, famalai.

>men without cocks

>>6730661
I'm a sickly little guy and T hasn't negatively affected my health in any way, shape or form. I smoke and should probably get a healthier diet. Just as healthy/sickly overall as all the cis people around me.

my s/o and i had been smoking dusted weed for... shit... it happened late fall, and my bday was the 2nd time we smoked it i remember cuz the first day had been great and that was a shit birthday mostly... so idk late summer to late fall pretty much all day every day... and we had just finished the last of it and didn't feel like being sober when it wore off, so when we were coming down my s/o suggested we take some xanax, but he grabbed zoloft, and just the pills... the bottles were next to each other in a medicine cabinet in the house (it was a weird terrible living situation) and i remember saying to him that it didn't look like xanax and i knew cuz i'd taken it plenty before that, but he was sure and i was really high figured maybe i was being stupid... so he took it and i took less than he gave me cuz i was unsure of what it was, but i figured there was a chance it was decent anyway...

and well... it was zoloft... and that shit really fucked me up, worst thing i've ever put in my body and i've never been that fucked up from anything before... not even that birthday i mentioned just before with the dusted weed bad high... and that was like clockwork orange style meltdown over a song, bad deja vu, blacking out for a bit etc

the zoloft though... i couldn't sleep, i couldn't eat, i felt numb, and felt like my insides were shaking, it made me feel removed from everything and detached in this way that not even pcp had ever done (but i also used it with weed... though completely unknown amounts honestly and all day every day there were points where i'd smoke it, throw up from it and then smoke it again)... and it was just this really terrifying, empty feeling and up until that point i'd never felt suicidal... but i did while it was in my system, it was all i could think about just to make that feeling stop

>>6730990

+ so i found out what i took, it was zoloft... and i looked up the negative effects and i had pretty much all of them... found out the half life, and spent 3 days burning myself on a space heater and shit to keep from killing myself cuz i couldn't think straight otherwise

i only hurt myself in ways i wouldn't leave a mark, it's just that i accidentally hurt myself that first day and i found out that the pain made that fucked up feeling go away temporarily... 3 days of just that numbness just wasn't something i could do, so... that was really all i could do to keep myself from losing my shit

and i just didn't even say a word to my s/o i was hiding from him to do it and when he was at school and shit... cuz he wouldn't have handled that well especially cuz he gave it to me...

this chick i knew was great though, she helped me through it constantly checking in on me and shit...

but yeah... after that i couldn't bring myself to take pills for about a year... but then there were free oxys and that was over, once i took those i was just over the pill thing and started taking benzos again occasionally too...

>>6730661
I don't smoke or drink. Cigarettes taste like shit and I have no strong feelings for or against alcohol, I just don't see the point spending my money on it and I don't like the feeling of being drunk much. I really don't get how it's so impossible for some people to not drink etc.

I feel like it's taking longer. 5 years and my beard is still 3 month tier. Everything else changed alright, though. Maybe I'm just shit out of luck with hair genetics or something like that.

>>6732909
You're attractive, even though you seriously look somewhat like Elliot Rodger. Just with a better face overall, especially lips and nose.

>tfw no FtM bf to hold me down and have his way with me
Would you guys date a trans girl?

>>6733444
I feel disgusted and misrepresented. But any buzzfeed-tier shit about ftms always disgusts me to no end.

>>6733445
If you're okay with not being allowed to touch me and being tied up during sex to ensure that you won't, I'll gladly masturbate to beating the shit out of you and sticking various tools in your orifices.
Thing is, don't look like you enjoy it, biggest bonerkill.
And that's why I officially ID as asexual

>>6733751
I hate pussy, on anyone.
There is nothing about being a woman that I find desireable or even agreeable in any way, shape or form.

>>6733833
Yes, but I'm >>6733855 , so make of that what you will. I wouldn't want to see your dick either because jelly if you still have it.

>>6733867
That sounds pretty great desu. I like the idea of that. And there's not much there to be jealous of anyway.

>>6733902
Next problem is that I'm over in yrop, and probability says you aren't.

>>6733931
Fuck. Well I tried at least. I hope you find your perfect gf anon

>>6732549
Why aren't you using it as much as you should to get results?
But thanks for the advice, I'll look into T-Gel especially because it's cheaper, although I thought it was just for dandruff/scalp conditions and not hair regrowth? But if it works for both...

>>6731176

Having random erections in public doesn't sound fun.

>>6734128
It's really not that big of a deal even when it happens

The worst possible outcome is that people notice your boner and unless you're staring intently at a school play it's just a boner

Did anyone here gain weight when they started T? I'm going to start lifting so I don't become a fatty anyway, but I don't like the idea of that becoming harder with natural T weight gain..

Nonbinary anon here. Is living as a guy as gender role confining as it seems? I'm thinking of trying to pass as a guy but I really like wearing cute unisex stuff. I like pastel colors but I don't wanna get laughed at.

>>6734287
How's the people in the photos?

>>6734305

>>6734287
i would make u my friend

>>6734293
How well do you pass already? You're not going to get laughed at for wearing pastel if you look feminine.

>>6734058
Anon, do you habitually wet your fingers and twirl your leg hair

>>6734305
The older woman is my grandmother through marriage. She died back in 2012.
>>6734311
I'm a pretty great looking boy, huh.

>>6734316
I don't need to wet my fingers to do that, but yea I do twirl my leg hair sometimes without thinking

>>6734287
I find you cute. Cuter than my ex <3

>>6734337
Thanks <3

Fuck I need a boyfriend.

Even if I transition I'll never be a real male. I never grew up as a male so I don't think I'll ever truly know what it's like to be one. My female body will always be weaker than a male who matches me in fitness so what's the point. I don't think taking hormones would make me as strong as someone born male and I would probably be too short for the profession I want anyways. The only reason I haven't an hero yet is because I care about my parents too much but once they're dead I plan to.

Honestly I would be willing to trade bodies with any male no matter how ugly they are.

For anyone who feels brave enough to answer, what's your birth name and your new name?

>>6734328
It's interesting to me to see people's habits written on them.

>>6734346
You can self-flagellate or you can focus your energies on making the best of your situation.

>>6734373
Elizabeth, Elijah.

>>6734373
Kate, Lucas
I know they don't have anything to do with each other, but somehow ever since I pretended to be a boy as a kid I always used Lucas so it seemed like a natural choice. Friends were suggesting me other names as if it was some game but yeah it felt as if I was trying to customize a character instead of just having a name as if it was the one parents gave me

>>6734344
I'd like to be your bf.
I miss the feeling

>>6734399
Ok. I'll be your gf.

>>6734395
>not custom naming yourself Twattycake The Great
Sorry you hate fun

>>6726694
Not that anon, but maybe I can help explain? I describe myself privately as agender.

I'm dysphoric about my chest, height, and voice, but not other things. My dysphoria about my vagina is weird, in that I don't wish it was a penis (although that would be an infinite improvement) but I definitely wish it wasn't there. I wish it was smooth with nothing there.

Everything in me screams that being female is a mistake. But I don't reeeeally want to be male. I've always wanted to be androgynous, genderless. Ever since I was a kid.

But that's unrealistic, so I tell people I'm a trans dude. And I am planning on top surgery and mones, so if the shoe fits I guess.

Besides, I like the people in ftmg and I don't tend to like other enbies, especially the tumblr transtrender girls. I've found exactly three other tolerable/cool ones, although agender people tend to be on the more normal end of the spectrum. Or maybe that's just because I identify more with them, who knows.

Tl;dr dysphoria says I'm neither, self preservation and common sense mean I say I'm male and work towards that.

>>6734223
Nah, lost some. It's easy to gain muscle on T though, you'll be fine as long as you don't overeat on a lot of crap food and you exercise.
>>6734346
T mitigates the strength thing, I mean, if you work out regularly at least. How old are you?
And sure, we'll still have always transitioned from female, but you can be male in appearance, and we could have great advancements in SRS in a few decades anyway.
There's a lot worth hanging around for.

>>6726959
That's dysphoria, not dysmorphia.

>>6734408
Wanna kik or skype?

>>6734416
Well, you do fit the DSM-V criteria for gender dysphoria which makes you trans. And you seem pretty chill

>>6728311
I'm going by Eli. I kinda special snowflaked a little bit and the whole thing is Elias, but if I just go by Eli then no one has to know, right?

>>6734427
Sure. Kik is Trlizzy. I'll tell you my Skype there.

Samantha, Samuel
Always have and always will go by Sam.

>>6734416
Honestly, I'm totally down with there being a third gender.
I just don't believe there's any more than that, especially not infinite amounts of different genders, or if there were they'd go under a third gender label anyway. Unfortunately a lot of non-binary people are the sort of SJW nut cases who do believe in infinite genders.
You're all right though.

>>6734416

You sound like a lucky fuck considering achieving a penis is like the hardest thing for any transperson to accomplish, whereas everything else on the FtM side of things is easymode compared to MtF.

At least you've still got your height keeping you down (kek) like the rest of us.

>>6729446
It takes a lot of trust, my girl can give me head but it was always really uncomfortable for me (I used to think I straight up didn't like it) and I've never liked piv sex.

>>6730435
This. Natal males don't start growing real beards until they're 23-26, that's after like ten years.

>>6734486
>23-26

Cis male here
Have had one since I was 17.

>>6734491
You're an outlier. Also post beard.

>>6734486
Some can some can't, gotta take a look at men in your family to get an idea when you're gonna get one
I know guys who had quite a beard at 18 already but my brothers for example, they never got full beard despite being in their late twenties.

>>6734486
You're full of shit. Most guys are shaving regularly when they're 19 and 20, or growing moderate beards. I know several people who had a full beard in their mid teens too.

>>6734419
22 years old, probably too late for me.

>>6733751

Ok? So it takes like 6 years, I'm just going off what I've seen. Still longer than 2 years though.

>>6734313

I look like a middle school boy but I don't know how I look in bright colors. I want to go on low levels of hormones eventually.

I'm so glad summer is ending. Summer is just annoying. Autumn is the best. Thanksgiving, cool weather, Halloween, the pretty sights... Summer is especially bad if you're pre-surgery. I don't even try to bind in the summer. Sports bras or out.

>tfw you like wearing plaid shirts because they're baggy and cover your chest
>your family says you look like an immigrant when you wear one

How can I be latino and pull off a plaid shirt?

>>6734293
I think it depends more than anything on where you live, what kind of crowd you run with, and what you look like.
A measure of confidence is like social insulation. People respect you more if you assume they will.

>>6734448
I mean, mine is just as impossible to achieve, and if there was a way to get a fully functional dick I'd jump at it. But I definitely do feel lucky in that regard. I kinda got shafted on all the other shit. I was given the perfect female body, and then a brain that just shat all over that gift.

>>6734428
That's why I still consider myself trans, I do have dysphoria and I am going to transition. I just wish there was a way to transition into a perfect androgyne, but being male will have to do.

>>6734447
Honestly, it took me a long time to come to the point where I can actually accept that I'm agender. I always thought that enbies were a meme, until I read some shit by an agender person. I think I was driven away more by the trenders than i believed that nonbinarism was impossible.

I still don't want to be associated with them, so I say I'm a trans dude. And being a dude wouldn't be terrible, I'd be a lot more comfortable with male sex characteristics than female ones.

>>6734746
>I was given the perfect female body, and then a brain that just shat all over that gift.

You know, it's cool to be alive at the same time as memes and all that shit, but I have to say it bums me the fuck out knowing I'm going to miss out on the era where our brains are just hard drives and we can upload ourselves to whatever body we want and trade with each other. You know it's coming some day.
Maybe if we're really lucky, advanced aliens will catch us up. Or maybe we're all a simulation, and we'll discover the cheat codes.

Man, /lit/ doesn't even talk about books. It's just philosophy stuff. That reminds me, see any good ftm characters lately?

>>6734287
Oh, i thought you were a pre-t ftm when I saw this picture, you pass pretty well

I know more ftm books than mtf ones. The mtf ones are autobiographical. Though I know more mtf children's picture books than ftm ones.

>>6735125
There is childrens mtf books?

>>6734373
Emma, named after my great grandmother. Thinking about renaming myself Edwin (my great grandfather's name), Eliot, or Emmett (strongly favoring that one).

I've always gone by my unisex middle name though.

>>6735125
Turns out you're the one with the knowledge. Recommend/name drop some relevant books, familia.

I was gonna go Elijah, but the one person who kept asking if I was still going by Elizabeth/female names was named Elijah so I'd feel kinda weird going "well actually, funny story, now our names are the same, surprise!" I figure I just won't tell anyone my full name unless they ask.

Actually, can anyone come up with some good S names that aren't Scott? I wanna keep my initials the same. They were the only thing I've ever really liked about my name.

>>6735150
Christ, I hope not. I have pregnancy nightmares.

>>6735190
People have the same names all the time, but it's your decision.

What's your personality first?

I've only read Parrotfish and I Am J. I know some others exist though (like Beautiful Music For Ugly Children). You can find them on Amazon or GoodReads

>>6735147
Emmett is probably your best choice considering how close it is to your birthname. It also sounds good and strong.

While we're talking about names, is Jaymes too obvious? I want a double barrel name so ___ Jaymes, but I know a lot of trans guys pick something along the lines of Jay.

Don't be a snowflake, just make it James. That's a good name.

>>6735347
Yes, it is. If I met you and you had that terrible name, I'd think it was really unfortunate and feel sorry for you. Just go by James.

>>6735319
That's exactly why I like it. It's close enough to still honor my grandmother, but it's a sturdy, masculine name.
