I started transitioning (not testosterone until 4 years later) at 11, I think they should go for it if they feel its the best option. get a therapist. support him. deal with bullies in a better manner than the school will because I can almost 100% guarantee you that the school will do near jack shit.

It's all genetics (and how long on T you are). I know a dude who's been on T for like 6-12 months and who could easily pull off that level of facial hair, but I'd say he's a bit abnormal. You gotta remember that even with cis dudes it takes a while before they can grow a full beard (and some can't grow a full beard ever) and they have a headstart compared to you.

I just figured myself out at a young age yknow, plus with my mother being bisexual, her sister/my aunt being a lesbian, and some of her best friends being gay guys and lesbians, she was pretty accepting of me. got me a therapist literally the day after I came out. only bad thing is that she made me sit down and watch boys dont cry that same day. It was kind of a come out this moment or jump out the 3rd story window kind of thing. I think I figured myself out so early on because of all the meds I was on at a very young age maybe made me more in tune with myself or something.

That is pretty cool of your mom to be so understanding. My experience with lesbians back in the day was that they were pretty ignorant of trans issues, and they would treat ftms as confused girls that wanted to be boys for "privilege" or due to restricted gender roles. It is good instead of telling you a girl can be anything she wants she took you to a gender therapist.

How did your dad react when you came out?

my biofather got told a week later over the phone by my mother so I don't really know how he reacted, I just know that the next time I saw him, he said I was trying to copy my brothers lesbian friend who I hardly even know.
my dad on the other hand took it pretty well, we go hunting and fishing together sometimes, play vidya together and stuff.
Also my brother at first called me a confused lesbian but now he just treats me like his brother, we smoke together and also play vidya together, skate, party, chill, even started a band with him.

Do you have any other siblings? Is he older or younger than you?

>>7997252
he's older than me by 2 1/2 years, only other sibling.
>>
>>7997280
Interesting, siblings tend to get along better with same gender siblings. It sounds like since he didn't have a brother before he realized he really likes having a brother.
>>
>>7996514
Probably not, since kidneys don't really mess with reproductive hormones.
You're really better off asking a doctor, though. They're supposed to go over health complications with you before you get prescribed.

>>7997627
nope, I was the therapists first transgender patient so all of their information came from me and all of my information came from susans place or some chat room if I remember correctly. I dont think I even knew about blockers at that time, just testosterone and surgeries.

I think the worst part about coming out prepeubescent is watching yourself grow feminine features and getting period even though you were out as trans before those things began and then getting told it's a peuberty teenage phase.
>>
>>7997681
That's.. actually quite dangerous on their part. But I guess this was a while back.
>>
>>7997681
So they just watched as you grew breasts, got periods and stuff.

They at least let you socially transition?
>>
>>7997731
no they didn't watch me get that stuff, it's more like me watching myself. I don't think they really saw anything. The first time I shoplifted was shoplifting ace bandages, then one day I asked my mother for a binder after a whole year of ace bandages. I hid periods with a lot of toilet paper and "sick days" from school. basically my early years were hiding myself and I payed the toll of stretch marks on my chest and such.
I pretty much socially transitioned before I even came out in a way.
>>
>>7997772
Did you get called by a male name at school, did everyone think of you as a boy? Did you have a male haircut?

How did you handle PE? Did you get to use the boy's locker room?

Did you get to use the boy's bathroom?

Or was the school too weirded out by that?

What about you?
>>
A close friend of mine is risking becoming homeless and without a job.

I resent myself for not doing *enough* to help him, but he's been barely above the surface for months by now and me just "being there" or whatever isn't helping at this point; the only way I could actually help would be financially, but it would be a temporary solution at best because his problems are deeper rooted in the social security system that just isn't working. Not to mention, I'm a minimum wage worker myself.

Even then, I feel guilty about the fact that I'm not living the minimalist life to help him out. My margins are way spacier than his, not to mention I've a family to back me up, which he doesn't. The fact that his family can't deal with him being trans (among other things) is the reason he's in the situation to begin with.

Sorry for blogpost. From my understanding there's people from all sorts of socioeconomic status here, how do you guys deal with having friends who're hard to level with because of that?
>>
>>7997874
for the first 4 years I changed in a bathroom, used an office bathroom, and the school was not necessarily accepting, but now in HS I just change in the boys locker room and use the boys bathroom despite for the past few weeks it technically being illegal for me to use the boys bathroom in school. I dont take any workout classes anymore because I get really bad chest pains

You go to use the boys locker room with a binder? Do you use a STP device for going to the bathroom, or do you wait to use the stalls all the time?

If I were you I would be so pissed off with this doctor, having to have breasts grow after coming out, and not doing anything to stop it, and still have it.

Since it has been many years, is there no-one in the school that knows you used to be a girl?

I have an STP but I dont use it often, everyone uses the bathrooms inbetween classes so I just use it during class instead.
I get angry thinking about how I could've had no breasts or curves had I known about hormone blockers earlier, makes me angry.
I know some of my closest friends know I'm trans but other than that, the teachers and principle know since I haven't had an official name change (step father spent the name change money on lotto tickets and they cant hold on to money for longer than 5 fucking minutes)

I thought there was a lot of pressure to remain "a straight girl". Since not only you're trans, but even if you're stealth, it will be obvious you're gay if you're dating. As opposed to "staying cis het".

Apparently my most clockable trait was to slip in conversations, like "guys like us", "girls are like that, they....", "live like a king". I've done that since I was a kid. I was also told I sat like a guy, my gait was like a guy, and I mansplained, manspread, and had a very masculine body language in general.

Huh, I'd have thought those could all be used in a gender-neutral sense, or for the middle one just talking about girls in general without including or excluding yourself. I talk about girls and guys as "they" as though I were neither...

Didn't even do it consciously. Just naturally lumped myself in with the cis guys, even as a kid. I became aware of it after people started pointing it out.

>>8002852
Usually people don't care.
Back in primary school I dressed like a boy, had short hair, and talked like that. The school saw it as a phase (even though I did it since before school age) and told my parents to correct my behavior. The teachers started praising me like a retard if I did something feminine and punish me every time I did something boyish. Got serious aggression issues after that.

I don't know this seems to suggest that just because you get along better with boys then you must be a a boy. I guess I can imagine girls that have masculine mannerisms and interests that get along better with boys, but aren't really male.

The school corrected the behavior of all the kids behaving weird. That's how normies are created.

>>8002977
I insisted on using the boys' bathroom and claimed to the others that my penis had been displaced and would be fixed later. Tomboys don't do that.

>I insisted on using the boys' bathroom and claimed to the others that my penis had been displaced and would be fixed later. Tomboys don't do that.

I meant that in general, I don't like people trying to figure out if other people are secretly trans or not, because it would lead to a lot of false positives. I think if someone identifies as female even if there are a lot of signs that they might be male, I just let them be.

>>8003043
The main trait of being trans is how people feel, not what they say or do. The key is to ask them how they see themselves.

I thought that led to people either embracing their interests in college, or becoming repressed, and hating people that are not normies, while shamefully taking on their interests in secret.

try meditation and/or hypnotherapy.
you can relax and go back to that time and place and relive it as an adult and literally change the outcome.
your subconcious mind doesn't know the difference and will replace the memory with the new outcome where you are stronger and protected.
The anxiety then disappears.

I've done this with several traumatic childhood events and the results are hugely positive.

teachers never bothered trying to shame me after a bit, it didn't work and they'd just end up more frustrated... i got sent to other classrooms, the hall, and the principal's office a lot instead... it didn't work either but i guess they didn't have to deal with me and that was more the point...

i was a really bad student... i got really good grades, scholarships, awards etc and tested well, but as far as actually functioning well in that environment goes i couldn't manage it

i don't learn that way, and i have a bad attention span... i also can't handle schedules and don't like doing work that's unnecessary because i'm lazy and if i don't have to put effort into something i won't unless there's a pleasure reward at the end of it...

i also never really cared about any kind of "authority" teachers held over me, so nothing they said bothered me i knew i was going to graduate whether they failed me or not cuz testing can fix everything in nyc (there's a regeants test, get an 85 and above you get all the credits you need for the class whether or not you fail... so technically you only need one good day out of the year to get by), and i wasn't worried about getting in trouble... i grew up getting the shit beaten out of me on a regular basis nothing a teacher could legally do was gonna affect me so there was no reason to respect them aside from as individuals... if i liked their personality i'd be more cooperative and better behaved when i showed up

>>8004828
I did and they said Chase and I instantly cringed lol. So that's out. I had planned on using my grandpa's name for a while though so there is some attachment. I think they'll get over it eventually too cause it comes from whatever leftover "rebellious daughter syndrome" my mom still harbors against him.

Tbh I feel more guilty throwing away the name they gave me than anything because of their reasons for giving it to me. I might tell them I want to keep it as a middle name maybe.
>>
>>8005383

no reason to feel inadequate, you don't need a dick to get a chick off... there's more to relationships than shit like that anyway, but regardless unless she wants a kid there's nothing to worry about... and even then, threesomes are fun
>>
>>8005399
Yeah I feel that. My parents were really proud of the name they picked for me, and I feel bad because I honestly hate it.
I liked my male-backup name though, it fits me pretty well.

Anyway, good luck to you. Maybe you'd be able to "override" your parents' impression of your grandfather's name?
What I mean is that people usually base their feelings about a name on one person they knew with that name. In their case, they associate your chosen name with your grandpa and their feelings toward him. If they get used to referring to you by that name, they'd start associating you with the name and not feel as much resentment toward it. As long as you don't do anything that reminds them of your grandpa.
It'd be a long process but you don't necessarily have to give it up if you don't want to.
>>
>>8005614
>and I feel bad because I honestly hate it.
How can you hate your own name?

I feel neutral to mine, apart from it being the wrong sex.
>>
>>8005654
It's not really fun to make a nickname out of, people would always struggle pronouncing it (even though it's honestly really easy, they just overthink it), something about the combination of letters bothers me, I associate it with this alternate persona that I put on for people in my girlmode, and it's kind of a "cultural" name but for a culture that I'm not related to whatsoever.

I just honestly think it was a really terrible name for me, but my parents had this whole sentimental plan and attachment when picking it out.

hey /ftmg/ I'm not ftm but am attracted to transmen as well as cismen, but want to be sexually active with transmen as well, so had some questions.

when transmen get bottom surgery, do they usually get a phallus of some sort to use in sex? does it give them pleasure to have sex with it/get it sucked? I'm fairly certain there's no way to ejaculate but do transmen usually get balls as well?
And lastly, do most transmen even want all this or would rather not either do to just not wanting it or money reasons?
>>
>>8006926
Two kids of FTM bottom surgery, metoidplasty and phalloplasty. Both make balls, there's downsides to both. Google and read about it if you're interested. They're both really expensive and imperfect, I was recently reading about a guy who was on his 22nd revision surgery and regretted the whole thing.

Personally I'm all set with that shit.

Whether or not a transguy is gonna be cool with vaginal or anal penetration is up to him.
>>
>>8007264
ok...I just want to be open to being with transmen but being sexually active is a big thing for me and it makes me feel like a dick if I'm turning down transmen because some have vaginas. And I mean, there could be a chance I meet a transmale who makes me ignore that because I love the rest of him so much, but idk.
>>
>>8007280
Having a genital preference doesn't make you a dick, and anyone who says otherwise is deluded.
>>
>>8006926
Date an AAP. They are more likely to be into guys than other FtMs and more likely to be ok with PIV sex.

Plaid is for lesbians, both kinds of trannies, gay lumberjacks, regular lumberjacks, hipster faggots, and scots.

>>8002848
>>8002852

I did that kinda shit too. People mostly blew it off as a dyke/tomboy/brainfart thing.
A couple of kids did ask if I wanted to be a boy, but the concept of trans shit was completely foreign to us at that age in that time period. So it wasn't really clocking, they might as well have asked me if I wanted to be a dragon or something. The implication seemed to be "are you trying to be something you're not?" and I just told them to fuck off.
>>
>>8004608

If you plan on having kids, you could promise to name your firstborn daughter that. And pray she doesn't turn out trans too. But if that happened, then honestly, your grandmother obviously punched a witch back in the day or something, so fuck her and her curse-debt.

Having a cute girlfriend helps-- somehow it's totally different if it's on her and she's enjoying what I'm going. You probably also have internalized misogyny going on, of the 'dicks are totally normal but ew vaginas are gross' variety if you're young and sexually inexperienced, because that's how the media portrays sex organs to us.

That said, I'm bi too, and even prefer women more often than not, but I really have to be careful with what straight porn I watch so it doesn't set off my dysphoria.

>>8010744
Eh i mean my family just rolled with it because at the end of the day what kind of hormones I have in my system doesn't change the fact it's still me and nothing has changed between me and them. I mean, ultimately whether or not I have a deep voice and a pedostache doesn't really influence their lives aside from calling me a new name. They slip all the time and still refer to me as female sometimes, but that's normal, they were used to it. They were cool with my choice and that's enough for me. It all depends on the expectations they had, imo. My family thought I was just an autistic dyke, but when I told them about my choice they didn't really mind, didn't find it weird.

I've been thinking about goung back to living as a girl. Again. I've been on T for 2 years. I pass. Everyone knows me as a guy. I'm thinking of going to college next year, and I was going to get my name changed. But I can't figure out the fuck I want.

Why would you ever want to go back to living as a girl?

Which things? Which were harder?

>Maybe I miss how routine and familiar it feels.

>>
>>8012161
Easier things like not having to worry about passing, surgeries, legal documents.

Since I've transitioned, it's been a mental strain. Yes, I felt more comfortable, I like the changes T gave me, I like how I look. But it has always felt fake. I have to put effort into being a guy. For some ftms this isn't a problem, but for me it feels really wrong. It always has.
>>
>>8012204
As long as you pass can't you just behave however the fuck you want without worrying how "guyish" it looks? You don't need to follow a checklist of Male Commandments (tm). Unless you're uncomfortable with being referred to and treated as a guy. But on your end you're not forced to never do girly things again or feel 100% pure male all the time. Thing is, if you're trans you are so due to a crippling discomfort with your body and the perception\expectation\reality discrepancy, not much about changing who you are as an individual. You're not "Being a guy" if you get my meaning, it's still you and it will always be you, just seeking a treatment for a psychiatric\medical condition. Then of course there's roles that come automatically with being perceived as a guy, but then you're not forced to stick to those if you don't want to. You can behave like a fag and it still applies.
>>
>>8012204
>But it has always felt fake. I have to put effort into being a guy.
Fake how? What sort of effort?

If you pass now will you even be able to detransition and present as a girl again?

>Yes, I felt more comfortable,
This is the important part. How much more comfortable now? Would not being masculine be manageable for you?
>>
>>8012328
Fake as in needing shots and a different name to be male. And maybe surgery.

I was more comfortable once I passed. But for the past 2 months I've been really feeling like "being a girl again".

I really don't know what to think or do.

And if I do detransitioning, I can still present as female just fine. I never got super masculine.

Clint isn't exactly known for having big pretty Bambi eyes though, is he? YMMV with squinting. Take tiny green man Yoda for instance.
>>8013994
You're always going to have the same eyes, but your eyebrows will get thicker once you're on T, and if everything else passes about you I can't see people clocking you based solely on your eyes.
Never done it myself, but trans guys have used makeup before to make their faces contrast less. Female faces tend to have a bit more "smoky" look around the eyes.
You'd probably do best to just learn to live with it though, honestly.

>>8014072

Damn, son! You should probably talk to a counsellor of some kind, if you're not already. Help you figure this shit out.

I mean, to me, it sounds like you're trans but just have trouble finding where you stand in terms of gender roles. It sounds like you enjoy the masculinisation of your body but are just insecure about living up to how a man is 'supposed to' behave.
People who aren't actually trans but transition for other reasons often find themselves distressed by their masculinisation, and only see it as a means to an end to fulfil some other issue that's not being addressed (eg gender-nonconforming women who struggle with external judgement, victims of sexual abuse attempting to feel safe, etc).

Needing to take testosterone doesn't make you a fake man anymore than a man with naturally low-T is a fake man because he also needs injections. Postmenopausal women often take estrogen to ease symptoms, that doesn't make them less woman.
Being a girly person doesn't make you less of a man either, look at almost any famous gay guy for examples. There's a difference between wanting to be girly and wanting to be female. There's a difference between wanting the social perks of being a woman and wanting your body to be female.

I'm not saying you're definitely trans though, I'm just trying to illustrate factors that might help point you one way or the other.

And I say this as someone who's sceptical of the whole thing, but maybe you're just nonbinary, and will be better of finding a happy medium between male and female if you can't seem to pick one or the other.

What happened when you detransitioned the first time? What made you REtransition? Surely some lesson can be gleaned from that.
As far as embarrassment, honestly, you've already kinda set the tone. As long as you're medically safe, I don't see how anyone's gonna judge you for changing genders four times if they handled the first three. Everyone needs a quirk.

What are you gonna do if you have a kid and it's all fucked up? You can't really protect yourself from it and once you get a kid you're kinda stuck with it for life, you can theoretically give it up for adoption but a) social stigma b) you're probably gonna get too attached anyway

>>hear all kids in the system in this country are damaged, usually emotionally and often physically
It depends how old they are. That's why pristine teen-mom babies are in such prohibitively high demand, you get to scoop them up before the system molests them.

But honestly, even with biological children it's a roll of the dice whether they'll be fucked up or not. You're not a bad person for wanting a healthy, happy kid (it's all any parent hopes for, really), but you're probably an idealistic one.

I voted no because it's closest to how I feel, but I'm cautiously open to the concept, I just don't think it's anywhere near as common or simple as kids on Tumblr and Youtube present it as.

Like, there are different ways of experiencing dysphoria.
Some people are able to repress their whole lives, some people insist on living as their gender identity from absurdly young ages and never waver. Some people need a full transition to be comfortable, some only need HRT. Some are incapable of having sex as their natal-sex, some are fine with it. Are these differences evidence of people falling along a spectrum of gender identity, or is it just variation in how different levels/focuses of dysphoria manifest in different personalities?

If there's all that variation in people who simply identify as ftm/mtf, then what the heck is nonbinary even supposed to be? How is a nonbinary person not just a trans person who doesn't need to transition all the way and/or doesn't conform to gender expectations?

It's not the dice-roll problems or what the system does that I have a problem with, it's the problems that are a result of shitty family life before.

Two have been fucked up by their mother's substance abuse and another's parents were somehow shit so he'll never interact with society properly. It's fucked up, man, you can't shake that shit off.

Maybe that's it? I've always hated that no matter what, women generally aren't taken seriously.

When I detransitioned I did it because my mom was freaking out about me being trans. I detransitioned because I was more comfortable "being a guy".

>>8014083
I tried being a masculine girl. Should I try being open about being trans?

>>8014123
I was seeing a therapist that specializes in transgender issues. But he seemed more about encouraging trans behavior instead of determining if I'm really trans or not. He also stopped contacting me. I'm looking for another therapist.

>Being a girly person doesn't make you less of a man either, look at almost any famous gay guy for examples. There's a difference between wanting to be girly and wanting to be female
Not him but there's a pretty big difference between being a girly cis man and an ftm
You might still see yourself as male but other people won't take you as seriously (though passing affects this a lot)

>>8014168
>>Are these differences evidence of people falling along a spectrum of gender identity, or is it just variation in how different levels/focuses of dysphoria manifest in different personalities?
I see myself as NB myself but that's kinda how I feel basically
Gender might or might not be a spectrum but gender dysphoria definitely is

>How is a nonbinary person not just a trans person who doesn't need to transition all the way and/or doesn't conform to gender expectations?
Well I think there's a pretty big difference between not needing to and not wanting to
Like imagine these cases
>ftm would want a real penis but feels indifferent about a vag
>ftm feels indifferent about genitals either way
>ftm enjoys his vagina and prefers it to a penis
Either way you get someone who wants top surgery and T but no bottom surgery yet they feel like completely different cases
(on the side note it kinda ties in with what I replied to the other post - a lot of people will think "well the last one is just female" but if they learn i'm basing it on a real person that's been on T for 10 years and is basically a gay bear they're gonna see him more valid even it doesn't fully convince them he's a real tranny)

Same goes for sense of identity, there are people who have gender dysphoria yet don't feel like anything and people who strongly feel they don't belong in either category kinda like classic TS can on some level be convinced they're female even when all the evidence points to the contrary
>>
>>8014168
I feel somewhat similarly to you about it, honestly. But I do think the young trans communities over on youtube and tumblr are delusional - especially when they talk about there being literally infinite numbers and variations of gender(s) beyond male and female. That crowd have an ideological bubble around them and refuse to acknowledge the biological reality of male and female. Apparently, to them, biological sex doesn't real.
Obviously I can't get behind that notion. I can understand how someone, especially a transitioning person could feel like they were between male and female/not completely male or female especially if they haven't completed transition, or are just beginning. But I think in a lot of ways that's just part and package of the trans experience - not fitting in on a gendered level - and doesn't need to have a special name for people who still find themselves in an in-between state.

But I also think there's many many people adopting the label of non-binary and trans who just do it since it's a fashionable trend now in lefty-feminist-circles. There are many who don't even experience dysphoria, which is a symptom of actually being transgender.

To me, all this seems to add up as a gender-nonconforming trans man (as opposed to cis woman) who is overly concerned with the perception and convenience of others, and insecure about his right to live as a man while conforming to some female gender expectations.

What it comes down to for me is that you said transition made you feel more comfortable with yourself, and that you detransitioned to please other people.
If no one else was a factor, what would you prefer?

Or look at it another way; regardless of whatever's going on that's causing this confusion, at the end of the day there are perks and drawbacks to both male and female social roles, and there are perks and drawbacks to transition and nontransition.
eg, What feels better, being comfortable or having your mother not freaking out? Will she really freak out forever? Will detransition make her freak out less now that the cat's out of the bag?
What feels better, the comfort that comes with living as a man, or the freedom to do girly shit that's not as easily afforded to men in our society? Can you find the confidence to do girly things anyway?
What feels worse, the dysphoria of nontransition, or the legal/medical/social hassle of transition?

At some point, you might just have to decide where your priorities are and pick that one. Maybe you'd transition on the proverbial desert island, but we don't live on desert islands.
Or hell, maybe you can fly back and fourth for the rest of your life like a dual-citizenship drag queen, I'm not a doctor. You do you.

That's an external difference though. Obviously a girly trans man will have a tougher time passing, but that doesn't mean their girlyness means they're not trans and/or can't live as a man. It just depends on the amount of clocking and bullshit someone's willing to put up with (which isn't too different from regular cis men who push down their girly traits because they don't want to be called fags all their life).
>>
>>8014325
>>8014353
Nayrt, but I don't think one has to exclude the other. I IDd as NB for many years, partly because I was uncomfortable with calling myself a trans man (I was a teenager and (understandably) absolutely terrified of the idea of something as life-changing as hormones or surgery), partly because there was a lot about femininity and being a woman I loved. I function socially as male, but my feelings about gender are still complex. I think I ID more as a GNC/queer man these days, but the NB term was important for me at the time and I think it helped me a lot.

>>8015387
It really varies on the day. Some days I want to be the old female me. No stress or pressure about transitioning. Having pretty hair and make-up. Having a cute voice.

Some days I want to have nice facial hair. I get taken much more serious as a guy. I feel much more outgoing and somehow less awkward. I usually hate my boobs, but I used to bind them as a girl, anyway. I'm indifferent about having a vagina because I don't use it anyway.

Recently I've thought about goung to the thrift store and buying a bra and clothes I used to wear. I know I don't have to be girly, but no matter which gender I present as, I like looking nice. But I'm wondering how I'll feel wearing that stuff again (in private).
>>
>>8015578
Why do you think autists have a deeper voice? I have a (legit) autistic friend and she can't tone her voice down, screeches like a banshee with a glass-breaking pitch.

>>
>>8015990
Buy a house/other living arrangement. Find an asexual wife and have her bear "my" children and cook for me. Raise little no-nonsense shitlords. Essentially the same as if I hadn't been trans. (I'm not holding my breath though, I think expecting near-celibacy of a woman is a bit selfish, unless she really is asexual and/or they really aren't all slutty these days. People got around it somehow way back when, so it's gotta be possible, but these days? I just don't know. I just can't imagine ever being comfortable enough with sex.)

On the other hand, there's always making content and living with spiders and other weird pets if that shit doesn't work out. My goals aren't really that big. I want company and a legacy.

Hey FtMg, its my first time posting here so sorry if I'm off topic. I wanted to know if any of yall could help explain to me some of my experiences with dating FtM people in the past. While I realize that yall aren't all the same, my past three boy friends acted really... bitchy-ish.
So I'm m/bi-scum, and pretty much introverted feminine type personality. I always liked the look of FtM people since often they were either androgynous or super muscly. However, with my last 3 partners they always seemed to have this weird expectation for me to behave towards them like they were the guy in the relationship, I.e be submissive in bed and in social displays. However, when it came to actual action like who's hips are gonna do most of the work, or who's driving to who, or who plans dates, it's always left up to me and they start acting like girls.

Side note* when I say "like girls" or "like guys" I mean as far as my own personal experience. Cis girls typically behave in certain ways in my relationships, as do cis guys, but FtM guys often seem to expect all the cool parts of being the guy while shrinking away from the more annoying parts.

I have a date this weekend with a FtM guy who is super cute, but idk if I want to keep trying with the group. I just want a guy who can man up when it's expected of him, but I worry that most Ftm guys aren't willing to do that.

I'm probably going to get bashed for saying this but I feel like a lot of ftms do act like women in that aspect, just like you say. And bitchy in general, more so than cis dudes. I mean obviously there's going to be exceptions but from what I've seen personally it seems like there's at the very least a lot of ftms who are that way.

How lucky/unlucky are you? I've never even met one FtM and you date three in a row and have another date lined up too!
Anyway, if I were you I'd see how your date goes this weekend and take it from there. Not surprising to me that they act somewhat like women since from the sounds of it they haven't been presenting as dudes for very long.
