BURN IT

But overall seems like standard modern fashion. Funny how like 80% of the shirts are clearly catering to male frames though lol. Lady cut tops won't work on male chests obviously, but vice versa goes for fitted mens tops.
Same with the pants, there are like 2 skirts and the rest are male-appropriate pants modelled on men.
Seems like a marketing thing. A healthy notch above 'period briefs' but still trying to draw in enbie chicks, without alienating the male market since the only men who care about fashion are fags anyway.

Still, buy whatever the fuck you want. Except pic related. Please.

Pussy.

>>8709014
I love cooking. My basic go-to dishes are veggie pasta sauces and omelettes; it's super easy but using fresh pasta and veggies (my go to is zucchini, shallot, garlic, carrots and tomato) makes your food feel a ton more luxurious. I also bake bread, occasionally.

A recent thing I did that I loved was a beetroot and black lentil salad with chevre, to go with grilled lamb. Right now I'm trying to decide what to make for brunch for my friends the next week.

Anyway, I feel like my diet is good (especially as I've been cutting down on sweets and processed meat) but I definitely need to get into exercising for strength. What's a good, quick routine just to get into the habit of exercising my upper body and arms? I'm not looking to get swole, just to actually get a habit of working out for a few minutes every day. I walk a lot in my job so I do move, I'm just kinda weak and spaghetti like.

They sell shoe lifts that add like two inches to your height...I'm not personally that self-conscious about my height, but I feel like a two-inch difference is kinda noticeable. Wouldn't it be MORE embarrassing to take them off and suddenly be two inches shorter?

Do any of you guys actually wear lifts?
>>
>>8710012
Nah, but I wear boots most of the year. Switched to sneakers for summer and my colleague did a double take because he thought I was taller.

With that said, I've had friends who I've known for years be like "wait, you're not taller?", because I'm pretty outgoing and confident and apparently come off as taller than I am, despite being kinda boxy.
>>
>>8710053
Yeah, confidence makes a difference. I know people actually perceive me as shorter than I am because I slouch a bit/wear baggier shirts because no top surgery yet. I'm looking forward to being able to stand up really straight and put my shoulders back, but I'm also worried I won't break the habit of slouching when I get to that point.
>>
>>8710158
I've done a fair bit of community leadership, so I also got a habit of standing on shit to be a bit taller in crowds, which might also explain it somewhat.

Honestly, start working on your posture now, 'cause it won't get any easier to break the habit and you're fucking your back over enough as is.

I honestly don't like them too much, mostly because I'm deadly afraid of roller coasters and most amusement parks make them their hugest attractions. Plus I have a history of heart issues in the family and I don't want to die because I got a bit scared in some random ride
>Anyone here like cooking? What are some of your favorite dishes to make?
I really like cooking. Most of the time I make sweet stuff, my favourite to do being cheesecake. My oven broke recently though, and I don't have the money for a new one, so now I can only cook things on the stove, which is a huge bummer. I was thinking of making springrolls soon, I recently bought the springroll sheets, now I just need pork and some veggies. I'll probably make onigiri soon too, but first I want to buy sweet and sour sauce

Well, i went to Bup for a referral which took ages cause of waiting time, was 15-16 at the time. Then once the bus team had sent the referral to the team at karolinska it took 12 moths of wait. Not shitting you.

Then 4 months of talking to them, then i was a year on hormone blockers cause ???

And now i'm over 18 so i was referred to ANOVA and now after all that shit, they said 7 months until i get T.

How does transition work in Sweden?
>>
>>8714379
You get a referral from a psychiatrist or sometimes a GP to a 'gender team'. There is one for adults and one for kids. The waiting lists are anywhere from 9-14 months.

There they kick you around and psychologically grill you and pick appart your life. Like you're a filthy criminal and they are cops interrogating you.

Then after 4-6 months, a team of several doctors decide if you are worthy of a preliminary trans diagnosis.

Then you need to complete a 'real-life experience' which is usually 6-12 months of being completely open and living as the gender you are transitioning to even if you have been out and living as that gender before being in contact with the team. Then and only then, are you allowed T.

Then if you want your gender marker changed or you want to be allowed to have surgery on genitals or ovaries/womb you need to send a request to the state who review your case and make a decision which can take up to one and a half years if you are really unlucky. Usually about 6-7 months though.

And they wonder why trans suicide rates are so damn high kek.
>>
>>8714517
How do the doctors decide if you're trans? Like, what do they look for, what to you need and what disqualifies you?

How does the state make its decision on surgery and gender markers? Shouldn't that be the same decision of the doctors'?

It's depressing.
>>
>>8713445
Fellow FTM in Sweden here. I would say to check out GenderGP if you don't want to be fucked over by years of waiting lists and gatekeeping. Contacted them a few weeks ago and am already getting prescribed on T now. Would recommend 100%.

>>8714363
Might be worth checking out for you too.
>>
>>8712425
How is this information ever gonna be available to us if we don't discuss it? If not an anon forum, then where?

>>8712502
I...doubt that's the reason, anon. Getting drier is "supposed" to happen because you don't have estrogen "maintaining" things anymore, it's like you've entered menopause. That's not really something that's gonna go away just because you're Being Yourself(tm). Sounds like T just doesn't affect him like that as expected.
>>
>>8714517
This is what you get for nationalized health service. Waiting lists, government controlled psychs, and gatekeeping out the wazoo whilst the fed's accountants squeeze every cent they can out of the underfunded public budget.

Meanwhile in Americastan I got my HRT after one session. LOL
>>
>>8714565
The best thing you can do is shut up and keep your head down really :(
You say what you think they want you to say and just let them psycho-analyse you. In general they look for typically male behaviour in my case, female behaviour in MTFs. They take notes about your body language, how you speak, what you wear. Everything.

In a way i guess i'm lucky cause i pass 100% even without T. I can go a somewhat deep voice, i'm quite thin so curves aren't an issue. I honestly think if i was curvy, short or had a high pitched voice that they would take me less seriously. It's fucked up.

Up until 2013 trans people who wanted their gender marker changed were forcefully sterilised. That says a lot.

I think Sweden is very accepting of LGBT peeps, but very conservative still when it comes to the practical.

Also the cringe wave of trans-trenders with long hair and make up has ruined the chances of actually being taken seriously. (FUUCK)

They don't want to pass, they don't want to act male, they aren't male. They want to be trans men who act and look like women?? Anyways that cancer is clogging up the system cause those cases will take double the time. Keep in mind there are only thee major gender 'teams' in the country which are veeeery under-funded. Also, if you don't live near one of the three, you are fucked. No chance of getting help.

The state 'decision' of gender marker change is so damn pointless cause i haven't heard of one case where they have denied someone the change. So you'd think it'd just be easier to accept everyone who has already gotten the trans diagnosis.

Ugh. Well, on the bright side i don't have to pay for health care.

Sorry for ranting, just so tired of all the shit right now.
>>
>>8714609
They are from outside the country I assume and self medding is illegal? I think it was, can they give you the diagnosis for being trans as well or just give you prescription to T? If so maybe I will actually just contact them. Even if it's illegal or not.

>>8714517
>And they wonder why trans suicide rates are so damn high kek.
Post-transition rates are not significantly different from the general population, and we basically have no data for pre-transition rates since there's no reliable way to identify pre-transition people in the general population. And the study that found that came out of SWEDEN.

Can we please stop repeating /pol/ talking points ourselves? Please?

Also, why tf is a place considered as progressive as Sweden this full of gatekeeping? Some of it I understand, but why would you require any arbitrary amount of RLT by the time you see a doc if you're already full-time? I was fully socially transitioned for years before I managed to get to a doc who would give me T - if he'd told me at that point I needed another year of RLT before he'd prescribe it, I would have thought he was fucking with me for giggles.
>>
>>8714624
Canadian here. What anon is describing is what the system here was like 15 years ago. It's literally nothing like that now.

Sant
>>
>>8714658
You'll make it through my dude, your waiting time prolly won't be as long as mine cause you won't have to start at the kids one first and then move over like i did. Also the real life period is 'negotiable' so if you really try and express you are suffering, chances are likely they can shorten the time a little. Self medding is a no no seriously you can get in deep shit. Also without a diagnosis you can't get top or bottom surgery if that's what you want

I feel ya man, the transtrenders are fucking it up for all of us. And there just seems to be so many of them here.

>>8714658
Would not recommend self-medding here for anyone who isn't MtF. Sweden goes full nazi when it comes to steroid regulation. It's very illegal here. If you can even manage to actually get testosterone in the first place, which is very hard, you can still get 2 years for actually using it. Plus you'd have to find a way to do regular
blood checks.

Yeah, I can't stand it. Worst is it's not only making us look like attention seeking freaks but also just making our entire identity a joke. When the poster image of trans people are girls with short rainbow hair making no effort to even so much as alter their appearance much less take any hormones, and yet still demand to be seen as male or one of their made up genders, it makes the rest of us a laughing stock. Not to mention their throttling of free speech with all their bullshit pronouns. They are making us look like being transgender is just something we are trying out as a fashion statement. It's incredibly invalidating. Makes me unable to wait until I can pull off going stealth even more as far too often people associate me with those tumblr transtrender shits upon finding out I'm trans.

Det dom inte fattar är att hela ens liv står stilla i ett limbo innan man får den hjälp man behöver.

I år nu så har vardagen- varit plugga/bli sönder plockad av läkare. Det är fan inget liv. Och sen ser man typer som ärligt talat älskar att vara 'trans' och nämner det stup i kvarten, utan att anstränga sig det minsta för att passera.

Det är fan inte kul att vara trans. Trans på riktigt. Det är ett jävla levande helvete. Att vakna up varje jävla dag och bara vänta på att några jävla läkare ska göra beslut. Mental tortyr.

New sweanon. I live in Stockholm and from first contacting the youth psychiatrics it took me 1.5yrs to get on T (including the part where they forgot about me for 3mo).

>>8714624
The problem is that the part of the system dealing with trans health is severely underfunded, understaffed, and outdated. My healthcare is still cheap and accessible, and things are getting better as far as trans health goes.

>>8714628
Speaking as someone who was assigned to the NB department, "trans trenders" are not the problem. If they desire transition to the point where they actually end up in the system for TRANSGENDER PEOPLE and not just with a therapist or sexologist at SÖS, they're definitely trans enough.
What you're talking about is the fact that people with less severe and emergent dysphoria are to a wider extent seeking out help from a system that's simply not made to deal with anything but the most desperate cases of transgenderism and hasn't been updated in far too long.

>>8714655

>>8714658
Take a deep breath, dude. I know you're mad about this, but let's start by not throwing other transfolk under the bus because their experience doesn't look like yours. One of the pros of the swedish system is that if it's just a "trend" thing, you'll grow tired of it really fucking fast.

Have you called them recently? When was your last appointment? Try and give them a call if you haven't and maybe they'll bump you up in the queue.

One thing that sped up the process for me was the fact that I had a very clear understanding of the effects of T, and a very pragmatic approach to any unwanted effects. I also have a good relationship with my family and am emotionally and financially stable, which I'm pretty sure helped as well.

>>8714659
I didn't need any additional RLT, actually. But again, NB division. Also I'd already been out for like four years.

>>8714687
This.
>>
>>8714853
Ja, det är inget liv alls. Inte en enda bra sak med det, så jag kan inte förstå hur alla transtrenders verkligen kan tycka att det är så bra och vill vara trans. Jag skulle göra någonting för att vara normal. Att vara trans har varit ingenting annat än en börda hela mitt liv. Det har gjort mig till att hata mig själv och har get mig social ångest till den punkt där jag måste tvinga mig att ens gå ner till ICA. Varför någon skulle vilja ha det här, jag har ingen aning.

That's very authoritarian. Cis people are never held to such standards, in Sweden even less so I should think.

What counts as male or female behavior? Do things like not being straight or not being hypermasculine for ftms/hyperfeminine for mtfs count against you?

BUP -> Sexologist/therapist at SÖS -> met a person from ANOVA & got remitted to them -> met the head of the ickebinära avdelningen a few times -> Karolinska moved and I got lost in the system -> called and met the ickebinära avdelningen like twice -> hormone doctor -> T


Also I wrote a long ass thing to the svenskar som pratar om transtrenders but honestly it boils down to:

>You don't know any of these people, and while your anger and frustration is valid and understandable, taking it out by blaming people who probably share a lot of your troubles but for whatever reason don't deal with it in a way you personally understand or approve of, is shitty. The people at fault are those with power in the system, not some 16yo with confusing genderfeels.

And:

>Being trans sucks, everyone who's trans or percieved as trans knows this. If you're so dedicated to being trans that you're willing to put up with all the bullshit surrounding it, especially if you are frequently percieved as "not trans enough" due to gender expression and not passing, you're probably trans.

And:

>The swedish system is complicated and terrifying and not very helpful in many aspects, and does not encourage people to actually seek help. In a progressive country like Sweden this promotes a political climate where transactivism is largely focused on identity and acceptance of those whose needs aren't dire enough to force their way through a dated and geographically unaccessible system, as opposed to pushing for better medical help, both for those with imminent need for it and those whose dysphoria is more low-key but would still benefit greatly benefit from a medical transition.

The right answer is obviously that these methods are all outdated and that everyone in these systems know it. They expect you to bullshit your way to the "right" answer and honestly I don't think most of them care that much for it. I talked about the fact that while some of my older friends are cishet, I inevitably end up with more queer friends, since they'll be more likely to respect my experience and since most people don't actually have a non-complicated relationship to sexuality and gender hanging out with queer folks you'll be more prone to question yourself. Underwear I explicitly said I didn't see how that was relevant, and that I didn't have a strong preference.

But they'd still gatekeep you if you fail to learn the bullshit their system expects? That's so dystopian, even the people administering the tests not believing them but going through the process anyway despite people's lives being in the balance.

>Underwear I explicitly said I didn't see how that was relevant,

>>
I can't stand dysphoria anymore, I feel so goddamn bitter.
>>
>>8715065
I'm pretty sure they just look past the "correct" answers of these "tests" is my point. Whether or not you have mainly trans friends won't actually weigh heavily for or against you, they just still have to ask. I've never heard of anyone outright being denied medical help, just that the process might drag on.

Again, mostly everyone is aware that the system is outdated and I definitely feel like large chunks of it are just kinda looked past even when they're brought up.

I guess I'm late to the party on this one, but I saw The Discriminant getting some traction on here.

They're a cool site definitely, but I've just started Genderless World, a trans-run business which is more or less the same concept, but cheaper, more responsive, and has a wider selection.

It's good for enby ID-ing people for sure, but there's some good stuff for transguys (binders, shoes, accessories) and transgirls too.

Oh, and believe it or not, I only found out about the discriminant as I was halfway through designing the site, because you'd be right to ask.
Anyway, check it out, I like to think there's some cool stuff on there! Also, use code 104CHAN for 10% off.
Or if you guys just wanna tell me to fuck off, go ahead (who the hell advertises on 4chan anyway).

You're not wrong, hoodies are pretty much a go-to for a good andro/masc look. The difference here is that there's no "male" and "female" sections - trying to reduce stigma of who can wear what, so it's suited to the whole trans* umbrella (mtf/ftm/enbies/other).

DESU I don't know if the breakdown is coming. I'm fine right now, but since people say this cyclical it might come back.

Is it okay if a cis male responds?

I think it takes either a gay man or a wannabe thug to be in love with own masculinity.

I SIMPLY FIND MY MASCULINITY BEARABLE.

There are far worse misfortunes after all...

I guess it helps that I could rather easily be an attractive male if I only took care of myself... except I'm not in love with my masculinity to be bothered.

Being male makes life simpler: I don't need to live like a princess to survive. Manhood is convenient. Men are also more charismatic than women; just look at old men to see what I mean.

One thing, though, which I'm extremely happy about, and which usually comes in package with being male, is HAVING A DICK. In a perfect world, I would be a big, strong, beautiful woman with dick. This is where I diverge from both trans men and trans women, and why I find it hard to identify with their cause. What I wish I was, is healthy and empowering – it's simply the perfect human form without the flaws of gender. What THEY wish they were, is hysterical, mutilating, sexually aversive and socially regressive. Why are they a 100% majority here? Why aren't there ANY people like me (be it male or female) on this sick board? What happened to diversity?

So I'd rather look like a beautiful woman. But, unlike trans people, I'm not going to kill myself if I don't. Killing oneself because of wrong gender is as stupid as killing oneself over not winning the Miss World beauty contest. Beauty isn't everything. Likewise, gender isn't everything. Another good analogy: killing oneself over not being one's preferred race. Who does that?

As far as my brain is concerned, I believe I'm neither gender because my personality doesn't fit stereotypes of neither. I estimate I'm mentally 66% male.

"Average" guys are better; Chads make me so dysphoric it's physically dizzying. I hate it.

Slightly on the pretty side is good (but not a femboy, a normal dude), slightly nerdy is good...mostly it's just important that he takes real interest in the world and likes to discuss ideas.

Some interest in fiction is okay, but I have a roommate basically obsessed with Marvel, Harry Potter, all the typical liberal fandoms, and I've grown to find it childish and wearisome to be so absorbed in fiction. I feel like it's missing the chance to really look at the meaning of your own life, of humanity and history, and try to find your place in the world.

"Mutilating"? What, like we enjoy mutilating other people? Or were you trying to say we're "mutilated"? I guess pic related is "mutilated"?

What does "diversity" have to do with anything? How on earth do you think that being uncomfortable with your biological sex is equivalent to wishing you were a 10/10 supermodel?

>You're trans.
Trans women reject my transhood on grounds of my autogynephilia, lack of dysphoria and non-binarity. Also I'm not transitioning in any predictable time frame. So I'm de facto male... I'm just not COMPULSIVELY MASCULINE like most other men. Maybe that makes me even more "male" than them, in that my masculinity is not contrived.

>HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW HUMANS? THIS IS HOW YOU CONVERSE, YES?
LOL, yes, that's an accurate description of me. Thank you very much.

>Hysterical?
Trans people aren't "trans" for the love of their target gender – they are "trans" for the hatred of their initial gender. (They take pride in NOT being autogynephiles and autoandrophiles.) Their gender identification is obsessive-compulsive. Mind you, unlike my Victorian precursors, I attribute hysteria equally to men and women, so no need to accuse me of misogyny.

>Self-mutilating?
The practice of binding really says it all.

Yes, the man in your picture is mutilated. His frown tells me everything I need to know: he's not here to make you feel good. (Humans in 2017 call it "attitude", right? How silly. I call it "repellent".) He's a fighter, not lover. He's a reduced human – a predator. He's not a liberty fighter either – he's a thug. His "tits" look like two squashed bugs rather than the bountiful milk bags our Creator designed them to be: he's not here to feed you, he's here to loot you. He brings others hunger, pain and slavery. His hair is short like his temper: no sensuality allowed. Oddly enough, he's not actually very masculine: his body is hairless and has curves (owing to muscles). He has some hips and may have big thighs. Overall, he presents a wrong mixture of both genders.

>Socially regressive?
Yes, transhood reinforces antiquated gender norms.

That's hardly the whole problem with you unironically using that term to begin with.

>The practice of binding really says it all.
It's not mutilation.

>His frown
You have such a strange grasp of the basic meaning of so many words that I'm inclined to ask if English is your native language.

He's not frowning - that's not even an emotionally neutral frown of concentration. Frowning involves drawing your eyebrows together and down - not up. I'm not saying this to be cutting or nasty, but something is wrong with you if you misread facial expressions this badly. Maybe literal autism. I would get evaluated for that.

>He's a fighter, not lover. He's a reduced human – a predator.
>the evolutionary male role is subhuman

>His "tits"
He doesn't have any.

>bountiful milk bags
Bet you're a real lady-killer.

>he's not here to feed you, he's here to loot you.
I'm a /pol/ack, and I'm not this racist.

>Oddly enough, he's not actually very masculine
Greek gods confirmed for girly men.

>Overall, he presents a wrong mixture of both genders.
Dickgirls. Dickgirls are the correct mix. Cuntboys are out of season.

>Yes, transhood reinforces antiquated gender norms.
Darn that evolution and people not liking dickgirls.

Also, I don't know how you could look at 80% of Tumblr trannies and say this with a straight face.

>You can't be honest.
Believe me, I meant it true.

Guys, I need help. This might be a long-shot, but does anyone know of a type of binder that doesn't put too much pressure on your armpits? Maybe something that's low-cut in the armpit area?

I think I might have cat scratch fever, and the inflamed lymph node in my right armpit is KILLING me, it hurts so much to bind even with a ton of Tylenol and icing it. I've read that it can take "two to four months" to go down(!!). I'm gonna go crazy with my armpit being on fire at the edge of my binder for weeks on end.

Alright guys I have a question for you:

I'm a cis male teacher (high school) and I have a student that I am like 97% positive is a young transmale. When I called out the roster I called out his rather feminine name and he seemed pretty upset by this and asked me to call him by a masculine name. He wears lots of baggy clothes and has very short hair among other things.

I don't want to assume he's trans but I also want to make sure I call him the pronoun he prefers. Do I just... ask him after class, ask the administration, what? I don't want to be barking up the wrong tree.
>>
>>8729702
Leave it up to him to tell you, but indicate in some way that he can tell you. Something like "by the way, if any of you have any different name or pronouns you'd prefer I use, feel free to shoot me an e-mail or tell me privately. I care about making sure you feel comfortable and safe."

>>
>>8729702
That sounds like a sure enough thing to me that I would have just gone with "he," especially if he seemed distressed at the girly name. I would imagine most dykes wouldn't be truly upset. "Is it he/him?" asked privately might be the only thing I'd do.

It is sure a sign of the times that anyone is here asking us, though. My high school report cards are hilarious - some of my teachers using "he," some using "she," and some constructing all their comments in such a way as to completely avoid using a personal pronoun at all. It fucking killed me to imagine them struggling to type that shit up without ever using "he" or "she." You'd think it would have been easier to ask me.

Is that image the original of this? Or are there other versions?

Being on this board too much really does your head in, and is not any good for trans people. The brow ridge thing - I knew about the sex differences, but didn't think it mattered to FtMs so much as hairline. But now I've heard about them so much it's hard not to stare at cis guy's foreheads trying to judge how much bigger they are.

That guy's about the same as me (proportionately) in your pic, for example. It's probably sad that I know that.
>>
>>8729702
You should drop a general hint to the class as I think he needs to tell you himself. Try to sound supportive, like this:
>hey, if any of you need to tell me something I want you all to know that I'm very accepting.
Or something like it. Don't know if that invites other problems, however. I would hope that students wouldn't see it as you offering to be their personal therapist.

LOL @ the explanation here being "contrast."

It's not contrast. It's skin color. As it says, lighter skin is CAUSING the contrast, but it's not the contrast that's valued. It's the lighter skin, which is almost universally perceived as more feminine. Greater fat deposits beneath the skin reflect more light, making females lighter-skinned than males on average in 90%+ of ethnicities on the planet. (The exceptions are mostly hunter-gatherer tribes where darker-skinned women are preferred because they read as "tanned," i.e. they spend more time gathering food.)

This is why, even though globalism is spreading non-white people throughout the West, anthropologists have found that the planet's OVERALL skin tone is getting lighter by the decade. Sexual selection: men (planet-wide) go for women lighter than them, and produce lighter children, decade after decade.

This is all relative (e.g., it's the case WITHIN ethnicities/races as well as between them), so it's not, say, a preference for whites specifically. Just "lighter," anyone lighter than the man looking.

But the author of this bit clearly knew not to say that, lest they get accused of racism. IT'S CONTRAST, GUYS. Dead funny.
>>
>>8730138
But it is literally just a contrast change in that photo. What matters is the value difference between the general skin tone and the features. Hence why make-up increases differentiation through pigments to the lips, eyes, brows, and cheek bones.

And that's with every skin tone.

Love 'em! Had a beautiful rescue kitty for almost 6 years that I lost in december due to an incurable illness. Still miss her so much... Now I'm a foster home, currently have a feral boy that's been living with me for 5 months. I'm sad that he still doesn't like to be petted, but he's very cute and likes to play and gives me company. Moving to a new house soon and he'll go on to another foster home (which has a female cat which is great, cause he misses the company of other cats and I think it will help his socialization with humans too). But I will have a new foster kitty when I'm settled in and I hope one day I'll just fall in love with one again and adopt it as my own~

Well, it can be different for different people. Personally, I don't like using my vagina at all for sexual activities, so I have a dildo called the Fuze Ultra that has a base meant to stimulate the wearer. Love it for a quick wank and I feel very connected with it. Hasn't used it with a partner yet, but probably need to invest in a proper harness for that (when I wank I just pull the elastic of my underwear down to hold it in place)

I just realized you said "two FtM's"... So well, some FtM's don't mind penetration either vaginally or anally (I personally don't like either). Dildo's/prosthetic gets the job done in most cases. And then there's oral and handjobs and blah, blah, it's not rocket science.

will it stretch out a bit after some wearing or should i return and size up?
>>
>>8734291
It stretches out a bit, but if you have pain/soreness/trouble breathing, consider a size up. Underworks are usually tough to put on the first couple of times then wear out a bit (putting them through the wash can restore them a bit).

You sure you measured correctly? If so you should be fine. Just don't wear it longer than 8 hours or so for a while.

idk, he's putting on a "sad," expression really badly? I don't think there's a name for that. That's also not a frown, though. FYI, "frown" and "scowl" usually mean the same thing. Is that a "scowl"? No. Again, I think the key is in the eyebrows - they look again here like they're going up. Compare to >>8739397's pic. That's actually a frown, although also put-on by the actor in question.

So is a domme who is riding the hollow dildo placed over the chastity cage containing the cock of her sub still a power bottom, or can we break away from the fucking anatomy at that point? Just checking.

I like dick.
I don't like MtFs. I tried really hard at that unity shit, but I haven't been able to stand a single one of you except maybe Blaire White.

Why is anyone "the feminine one," though?

Horseshit. Go to any men's forum and there will be dudes complaining about wives/gfs they've had for years being basically overgrown six-year-olds who demand endless attention/money/whathaveyou without giving back much in return.

It's one thing not to expect to be equals with your partner, and another thing to have them not be capable of the basics of adulthood.

Maybe you could actually have a conversation with a trans person if you didn't spend the entire time trying to "gotcha" them.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
