Let me abuse my mod powers to present you with some nice statistics:
The Trans Mega went from 190 comments on average in March, 372 in May, to 2508 in July. That's over a tenfold increase in 4 months. This means we're well on our way to take over the internet. Carry on.

Alright folks, its time for the diceroll again. Please post in reply if you want to host the megathread next week. I'll do the dice roll on the 11th. You must be able to post it Monday 12th at 4pm GMT
Socialism is when trans people exist. And it's more socialism if more trans people exist. And if a lot of trans people exist, it's communism.

I love slowly finding out what I like regarding gender expression. Removing the boundary of looking like a girl creates so much freedom. Also shaping my body by training muscles will also be awesome when I get on T.
I’ve always loved the look of somewhat masculine (twunk) men with very feminine clothing, and knowing I can look like that somewhere in the future is awesome.

It such a surreal moment whenever it comes up whenever I try to reach for my pre voice training mode of speech.(usually as a cute party trick with queer folk)
this last weekend at a queer gathering, I was completely unable to have a sound concept for what I used to sound like pre voice training, and the best I could conjure was basically a woman who smokes cigarettes kind of voice.
Feels like a really good place to be. Voice training was an incredible thing for my inner sense of self and healing.
The further I get along, and I certainly have such a long way to go, the more I feel like whoever I was pre transition integrates into a better sense of self. For the queer joy, just want to emphasize that there are so many fucking challenges that go into transitioning, but it is still the best decision I have made in my life.

I went to a lesbian bar also first time dressing femme and wearing my hair long and I just felt alienated. Maybe my dysphoria but like shit I was just alone for the whole time.

But it honestly did feel so natural wearing my hair long in my crop top not giving a fuck

381 evil dating app questions? Fuck this stupid Q&A. My ratings are all really boring and don't deviate from the middle of the % bar by more than like, a fifth. Maybe I answered too many?
Fuck the dating part though, that fucking quiz gave me so much psychic damage. Bunch of weird fucking liberal fucking imperial core fucking western "democracy" bootlicking ass shit.
It also asks me freak transphobe questions about trans people when I fuckin specified in the gender section. God there must be such bad brainworms on here, seriously fuck this thing. I am legit mad now. Do not.

::: spoiler parental transphobia, forced outing
I sometimes wonder if I come across on here as having all this gender stuff all worked out... in reality, I'm just a huge fucking mess lol. I have no advice for coming out to parents because I got forcibly outed when I was a teenager, I'm just lucky that the worst that happened were a couple of really horrible transphobic conversations but no complete disowning. I'm not on T and I'm four years into all this, thanks to a combination of ADHD and living with my parents (who have no idea that I want to physically transition — my mom didn't even like the idea of me going on birth control.) I'm socially out for the most part but I girlmoded throughout all my time at my past job and I'm considering doing that again for my next. I haven't even legally changed my name yet. I still feel like I'm not great at this whole "being trans" thing and I don't know how to do half the stuff that's associated with it, like all the health insurance stuff is hell for my ADHD brain. Since I currently live with my parents I exist in this sort of half-closeted limbo state with them, like they know I'm not cis but because of my past bad experiences I just haven't pushed on it further.

Well fuck. I have to come out as trans to my conservative brother today.
::: spoiler transphobia and homophobia
I've gone almost 3 years now without telling him, because he's a transphobic techbro dipshit. He tolerates gay people, but thinks trans people are all mentally ill and just need conversion therapy or something. I really don't want to do this, but I can't delay it any longer. It's obvious that I've become much more feminine over the past few years, and lately he's been questioning my parents about what's up with me and if I'm gay or something. If I don't say anything he'll just force an answer out of my parents. Currently he's in another country, and won't be returning for probably another few months, but I'm still really scared of how he'll react.
I fucking hate this shit so much. I can't handle conflict, yet I have no choice here. And it has to happen now, when I'm pretty much at my lowest point in terms of confidence and self-worth. Why can't I just exist? Why does this have to be such a big fucking thing that I have to announce to others? Why can't other people just mind their own fucking business and let me come out at my own pace?
He's also taller than me and way stronger, so that's fun. I'm not comfortable with the fact that he could beat the shit out of me if he felt like it, even if it seems unlikely that he'll do such a thing.

Having a pretty lovely transiversary~ 4 years of being one of them gosh danged transes, it feels really nice.
Went out in my favourite casual outfit to go to a cafe with my brother who was visiting, and I even managed to push myself to go do groceries while still en femme. Proud of myself for that second bit. Plus honestly it's incredible how much better I feel from going out en femme after so long. And I got complimented when I got home by one of my roommate's friends! Still the cutest girl alive~
And apparently I slimmed a bit, since I can't wear my favourite skirt as a high waist quite as easily as I could before. I think my weight might be cycling considering I saw the increase of fat in my ass so that's nice. Sad I can't wear my favourite skirt now though, gonna have to tailor it smaller.
But now I'm back home and can take the rest of the day nice and easy and mess around building cute stuff on the minecraft server now that it's up. Feeling very, very good.

He does treats me differently now so maybe he's already figured it out and is just waiting for me to say something anyway, I definitely act and sound pretty different than I used to.

First time binding with trans tape, today.
::: spoiler not-so-quick initial review
It doesn't get the chest down completely flat, which I was expecting; however I do wish I had managed to bind a little flatter? Right now it looks like I have either small A cups or very large pecs, and there's definitely still cleavage there. In the videos I watched it seemed that the people in them were able to get slightly flatter results. This may also be an issue of self-perception and things coming across differently on video, though.
The good part is, when I put on a shirt, it does sell the illusion a lot better. From the front view the illusion works best, from the side view again, looks like small A cups to me but still not too bad. Definitely a lot better than the B/C cup boob silhouette that I was getting really tired of. (I don't know exactly what size bra I wear, the last time I wore a bra at all regularly I was a B cup but that was 5 years ago and I think my boobs have grown since then.)
Definitely feel a lot more comfortable than a traditional binder, which was my main reason for getting it. I got my first binder when I was 18, and right after getting that binder I got COVID. Since then, binders have just... not been comfortable for me, and the last time I tried wearing one I had to take it off really quickly just because of how much difficulty breathing I was having. I could probably get slightly flatter results with a binder, but I don't think it's worth the health risk. I know people also use sports bras for the compression, but I hate bras. They are sensory hell to me and they always have been.
I was not wearing a binder regularly because of how uncomfortable I found it. I think I may try to bind more regularly now with the tape, because yeah, always having to dissociate a bit from my chest area got to be tiring after idk two years of doing it. Hopefully I'll get top surgery sooner rather than later, but I think that's probably still at least a few years off, unfortunately.
Since this is my first time applying it, my application was pretty sloppy and I had to redo one side. I think I'll get better at that as time goes on.
Not having saggy tits is such a boost to my mental health. I know there are probably some people in this thread who want saggy tits, and all I can say is: take my saggy tit energy

At first I was just adding stuff to the list, but after looking deeper at the reviews a lot of it is cheap garbage that won't even fit me right. I need to re-evaluate and pick the handful of things I want most I guess. Why is being a girl so expensive.

Anthropology has a lot to answer for. Back in the 90s, a transphobe named Serena Nanda turned the gaze of the university onto the issue of gender in India and we are still living with the consequences. With the power of imperial knowledge-making behind her, she has laid down the dogma that only (educated, middle-class, white) Westerners claim to be trans women while those Indians we call hijra are actually a third gender. All the cis academics since agree with her and even the Indian courts cite her, so it must be true, right? So if you see photos of a protest with signs like "Hijras are women" or Indian trans women saying that they're trans women, you can rest assured that's that just our malign colonial influence. The exotic truth, on the other hand, is safely preserved in the centers of power of the Anglophone world thanks to the daily labor of cis academics everywhere – preserved from the colonial force of white trans women who threaten to extend their reach everywhere.

look, i'm not trying to troll the weird transphobes by fucking with their own logic, but every time I hear that one tired transphobe argument of "but this isn't how god made you", I can't help but just flatly disagree. I'm not sure if there was some form of divine intelligence that aided or steered in my creation, but if there was, I'm pretty sure god just made me trans. It's really that simple

i had a really interesting conversation with a cis woman friend who is the same height as me, and has a large bone structure (mine is slightly larger but we're similar in a lot of ways). i'm totally cool with my height, i think i have the right height for my sense of self. and i was kinda surprised to learn that she has always wanted to be shorter, more petite etc. surprised because i have always appreciated how she looks and i know she appreciates the strenght etc that come with how she's built.
it's like she has more gender dysphoria as a cis woman than i do. and my heart goes out to her for it. she can relate in a lot of ways to my experience being trans and intersex.

Chat I am so big/cooked. I was talking with some lovely people earlier about shoe size and its so over for me. I knew my feet were big but apparently my idea of "very small" (I remember wearing bigger at like 11/12) is actually big for women. Basically its all over. T has made my body so incredibly large.
Supposedly this large size doesn't effect passing but I don't buy it. Also just being small and cute would be kinda nice idk.
I know this sounds like I'm sad/crying or whatever but I'm actually just which is very weird but welcome. Uh also sorry if I've posted about my size recently I don't remember what I post vs what I think about posting at all and my sense of time is fucked.

::: spoiler starting HRT week 3, boobs and cum, dead bedroom
Third sub-c shot. Nipples were sensitive all last week. This morning I noticed my ejaculation was mostly clear, so I guess my sperm production is down.
Girlfriend and I aren't having sex atm so she can find more sense of safety, which is something we both want. But there's no flirting or passion in our relationship right now and because of chronic tension and cPTSD, I hurt myself and flareup every time I try to go do something fun with her.
Feeling like I'm going through all these sexual changes alone, like I can't share with her right now without it making things uncomfortable. And like she'd be happier dating someone that's not chronically tense to the point of disability.
:::
On the bright side, third HRT shot and started voice training. Working with a straw to feel more vibration in the front of my face. Yesterday I was on the back step smoking, talking to brainworms in my femm voice.

I feel like I am in this weird position where my past work experience is rather atypical for someone my age to the point where despite the fact that it was pretty specialized work, I don't feel confident in being able to get another job like it. For context I was an art teacher/art teacher's assistant (I honestly do not really know what category I'd fall into) at this private art studio, right out of high school. So I have a lot of experience with teaching art, working with kids K-12, and also with photo editing. But also I don't have a college degree yet, let alone any sort of teacher's certificate so I don't feel confident in applying for most art teaching jobs. Art tutoring jobs, maybe...?

When I was young, I hoped I could be beautiful someday
Then it became hoping I could be decent looking
Then it became hoping I could look normal enough to go out in public without feeling uncomfortable
Now the bar's sunk to the level of just hoping I can put up with myself enough to function sometimes
I feel like I'm running out of expectations to lower and ways to disappoint myself more
I know sometimes I just have shitty mental health days and can catastrophize and this ain't my first rodeo but I just get so fucking tired of having to be me sometimes

::: spoiler boy mode, suicide attempt, and body image
When I'm boy moding my body image is not accurate. I 100% have had hair bangs down to my chin for over a year.
When I'm boy moding I imagine that my hair is shaved short.
I also noticed yesterday in the hospital, after boy mode landed me there by eating a bunch of pills*, that I've been covering up worry with restlessness, anger, and sensual desire. It happens reflexively. Boy mode doesn't allow for worry and this quickly blows up my relationship with my gf, other people I'm close with, and my life in general.
Noticing this distorted body image I think will help me be more mindful of myself. And challenging the false body image feels affirming even if worry is uncomfortable for me. It's also easier for my GF than this mess I keep putting her through.
*I won't say what but it was dicey. I have some schooling in pharmacology and had researched which meds and how much when upset last month. This was impulse yesterday and I quickly regretted it. I ate some activated charcoal at home and they gave me more at the hospital as well as IV fluids. I think the charcoal caught a lot of it based on subjective experience and articles I had read about overdosing on this med. There's less dangerous ones in this class I'll talk to my Dr about switching too.

So as some of you know, I have a bit of a problem. Relapsed twice recently, although I'm really hoping that's the last of it. I know they still have a lot of fading to do but they're very obvious right now. Very pink. I don't know... Scars just make me really sad. Especially because I really like thighs, and I'd like to like mine. But now there's (potentially) two big ol marks on them, reminding me.
I have others, in more obvious spots even too. I don't know. Just hate scarring. I guess in some ways it keeps me from doing it more. Often it's the only reason I don't.
I don't know, sorry I guess. I'm not like super upset or crying right now. Just been thinking about it a lot and wanted to say something about it. A lot of the time I'll just get stuck on a thought until I talk about it. Maybe that's an autism thing idk.

When I went vegan almost a year ago, I lost about 30 lbs fairly rapidly over the course of a month. It made a large part of my wardrobe unwearable. I didn't have a lot of money so I was only able to replace a portion of it using thrift stores. Then about 3 months ago, I started Adderall for ADHD. I lost another 10 lbs and now some of those replacement clothes are getting loose and baggy too, including a new bra that's now too loose in the band. And I have even less money than I did before and I'm at a loss at what to do. I've tried but putting the weight back on but I can't eat enough to the calories to do that. I have a sewing kit but not like a machine or anything and trying to adjust clothes seems like a nightmare. I also don't have a ton of experience so it'd be slow and I'd probably fuck it up too.

I have an ugly tattoo on one shoulder. Which bothers me when I wear clothes that show my shoulders. That and being 6' has made dress shopping unfruitful.
Been wearing skirts and T-shirts since I began social transitioning. Have put together some cure outfits. But I look like a teenager.
Bought a black dress today that fits me well and covers my shoulder.
Feels nice to have a more adult looking outfit.

This evil dating app fucking sucks, it keeps spitting out temp email addresses I give it. I hope no anon is stupid enough to make an Outlook or Yahoo for this shit.
Edit: this is really fuckin stupid, every single question in the Q&A needs a longform written response. The categories it grades are neat but goddamn. E.g. "Is it okay to date two people at once as long as you haven't agreed to be exclusive with either of them?" Uh.... like going steady or like first dates? Do I have the option to talk to both of them, or is this some kind of evil thing on the sly? Why is some silicon valley tech startup tryna cringe its way into being a weird fed dating honeypot?
E.g. 2: "Are there too many laws for things which are none of the government's business?" In that gender and sexuality should not be policed maybe, but I aint a fuckin libertarian?

This Sonic Mega was a great idea, I can do more of my autism right here!!!!
As a certified Autistic Child, it actually makes me pretty upset that Sonic Adventure DX is bad. I'm not that cut up that it happened once, like some people get all "THEY DEFILED A CLASSIC" about it and sure, but whatever team Sega delegated to it I'm certain were under harsh deadlines and crunch. There is evidence in the code that the devs tried to get LANTERN Lighting system and proper alpha textures/materials to work in DX, but it was abandoned probably due to time constraints.
Naw what bugs me is that they took this Gamecube "update" and then ported it to Windows XP... and 360/PS3... and Steam... while making the video, audio and texture quality even worse. Why, Sega? Death to america. Of course I own one of each cause I am very normal, but the only good version is literally emulating the Dreamcast release, very sad. Not every change in SADX is for the worse, but so many damage the game's ✨ immaculate vibes ✨
If you don't know about SADX somehow, you can read about it here!
I have seen the Dreamcast Conversion Mod, and I think it looks about as good as Dreamcast but it does not play much better. Chat, they fucked up either the controls, the collision maps or both in SADX, I get caught on stuff I would not in Dreamcast :(

This is by far the worst PMS I've gone through to date. BY FAR. I've been doubled over with cramps for 3 days. I'm super fatigued and can't do anything but sleep. My emotions are bouncing around like a bouncy ball in a dryer. I'm angry, I'm sad, I'm elated, I'm hurt, I'm happy, I'm crying, I'm offended. It's like my emotions are a die in a Sorry! popper and some 4 year old is wailing away at it without abandon. This sucks. This fucking sucks. I hate it. I just want a normal weekend. I want to be able to just paint my fucking minis and smile and not worry about ripping someone apart that doesn't deserve it. Now I'm just waiting for the gods ending migraine that I've been getting with PMS the last few times to crop up and force me into a dark room for an entire day.

::: spoiler fan fiction thoughts, not horny for once
So I'm reading this WoW fan fiction and the author gave a nice chapter-long look into the thought and psyche of the night elves. And that got me thinking about how a race that is basically immortal would start to think about every other race ie. as short lived and expendable, worth very little when you can blink and everyone you knew from them is gone. And that got me thinking about how inherently fascistic that whole thought is. An eternity of existence and not a single intelligent thought has been raised.
it's a shame Blizzard sucks at writing because they have so many good building blocks for SOMEthing, anything interesting, but that's why i read the fan fiction

As some of you know, I am thinking about coming out... maybe not immediately but I am thinking about it. One of my big worries is them not understanding, and doing things that might hurt me without meaning to (am fragile ) Obviously I can explain things to them, but I don't want to have to explain everything. Its hard enough being a baby trans without having to explain everything to a cis person.
So my question is what resources would you recommend a cis person read/watch/whatever to better understand a trans person? I'd look at anything you suggested as well obviously, and with that I'm sure explaining would be easier, but being able to offload some of it would be very nice. Any recommendations would be appreciated
::: spoiler Added concerns
They are christian and probably think I'm going to hell for this. Not that I care what they think about that, lmao, but also they haven't pestered me about going to hell in forever (I'm a bad girl who was already going) but just to give you an idea where they might be at. But they're the like, "gays are going to hell for living in sin, but that's their issue to work out with god" kinda christian if that makes sense. I don't know, anything I can give them to help them understand and alleviate things a little for me would be really nice.

Trans Megathread for the Week of 8/5 - 8/11
alright gang, we need another win over the news mega this week! keep those numbers up and keep being trans as hell

As a reminder, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
Let me abuse my mod powers to present you with some nice statistics:
The Trans Mega went from 190 comments on average in March, 372 in May, to 2508 in July. That's over a tenfold increase in 4 months. This means we're well on our way to take over the internet. Carry on.
Alright folks, its time for the diceroll again. Please post in reply if you want to host the megathread next week. I'll do the dice roll on the 11th. You must be able to post it Monday 12th at 4pm GMT
Also, everyone please check out our public matrix chat! https://matrix.to/#/#tracha:chapo.chat https://hexbear.net/post/3088303 Its got quite a lot of people on it now posting every day!
Me every day
Socialism is when trans people exist. And it's more socialism if more trans people exist. And if a lot of trans people exist, it's communism.
up with trans
i was so envious of the women in my previous jobs when they left and changed into their normal outfits and looked fine
but today I am that woman and it feels so fucking GOOD
I love slowly finding out what I like regarding gender expression. Removing the boundary of looking like a girl creates so much freedom. Also shaping my body by training muscles will also be awesome when I get on T.
I’ve always loved the look of somewhat masculine (twunk) men with very feminine clothing, and knowing I can look like that somewhere in the future is awesome.
New mega
It such a surreal moment whenever it comes up whenever I try to reach for my pre voice training mode of speech.(usually as a cute party trick with queer folk)
this last weekend at a queer gathering, I was completely unable to have a sound concept for what I used to sound like pre voice training, and the best I could conjure was basically a woman who smokes cigarettes kind of voice.
Feels like a really good place to be. Voice training was an incredible thing for my inner sense of self and healing.
The further I get along, and I certainly have such a long way to go, the more I feel like whoever I was pre transition integrates into a better sense of self. For the queer joy, just want to emphasize that there are so many fucking challenges that go into transitioning, but it is still the best decision I have made in my life.
I'm so glad that none of you can see the messages that I send to my beloved. It's too gay for even any of you to handle.
She is a cissie, though.
i like how half of the posts in the trans megathread arent even about being trans or gender or anything, its just the place for trans people to post. and it has more activity than the normal mega all the time. hexbear is a very trans site lol
Good news: My insurance approved electrolysis
Bad news: The only place taking my insurance is over an hour away by car. And I don't have a car
How's the public transportation route look? Oh over 6 hours (if every single bus is on time) with half an hour of walking in extreme summer heat. Love that US infrastructure
who here is heavily into transgender
guys please never ban me from here i hate trans reddit so goddamn much
I went to a lesbian bar also first time dressing femme and wearing my hair long and I just felt alienated. Maybe my dysphoria but like shit I was just alone for the whole time. I struck up a conversation with someone then asked if they wanted to smoke to which they said yeah and then after a short nothing conversation they left and so did I
But it honestly did feel so natural wearing my hair long in my crop top not giving a fuck
i'm in a work meeting right now and people are admitting that they make fake fan accounts in fan community discords/reddit/etc. to seed discussions and drive sales. i mean, i know it's happening and have been for a while, but i think i will probably tell as many people as possible how common this business practice is
Does anyone want to see my totally not a Sonic OC that I made and haven't done anything with?
Just had an incredible time going to a queer gathering in the woods. I cannot emphasize how life affirming it is to be in queer dominant spaces, people. Feel the best that I have in months.
This is your daily reminder to try a new gender today. You should change your pronouns at least once per year for good opsec
381 evil dating app questions? Fuck this stupid Q&A. My ratings are all really boring and don't deviate from the middle of the % bar by more than like, a fifth. Maybe I answered too many?
Fuck the dating part though, that fucking quiz gave me so much psychic damage. Bunch of weird fucking liberal fucking imperial core fucking western "democracy" bootlicking ass shit.
It also asks me freak transphobe questions about trans people when I fuckin specified in the gender section. God there must be such bad brainworms on here, seriously fuck this thing. I am legit mad now. Do not.
I think I'm in a good enough mental space to come back here, or at least attempt to. The depression seems to have finally lifted thankfully, maybe. Just replaced with some stress. Either way, I hope everyone's doing well.

::: spoiler parental transphobia, forced outing I sometimes wonder if I come across on here as having all this gender stuff all worked out... in reality, I'm just a huge fucking mess lol. I have no advice for coming out to parents because I got forcibly outed when I was a teenager, I'm just lucky that the worst that happened were a couple of really horrible transphobic conversations but no complete disowning. I'm not on T and I'm four years into all this, thanks to a combination of ADHD and living with my parents (who have no idea that I want to physically transition — my mom didn't even like the idea of me going on birth control.) I'm socially out for the most part but I girlmoded throughout all my time at my past job and I'm considering doing that again for my next. I haven't even legally changed my name yet. I still feel like I'm not great at this whole "being trans" thing and I don't know how to do half the stuff that's associated with it, like all the health insurance stuff is hell for my ADHD brain. Since I currently live with my parents I exist in this sort of half-closeted limbo state with them, like they know I'm not cis but because of my past bad experiences I just haven't pushed on it further. :::
Well fuck. I have to come out as trans to my conservative brother today.
::: spoiler transphobia and homophobia I've gone almost 3 years now without telling him, because he's a transphobic techbro dipshit. He tolerates gay people, but thinks trans people are all mentally ill and just need conversion therapy or something. I really don't want to do this, but I can't delay it any longer. It's obvious that I've become much more feminine over the past few years, and lately he's been questioning my parents about what's up with me and if I'm gay or something. If I don't say anything he'll just force an answer out of my parents. Currently he's in another country, and won't be returning for probably another few months, but I'm still really scared of how he'll react.
I fucking hate this shit so much. I can't handle conflict, yet I have no choice here. And it has to happen now, when I'm pretty much at my lowest point in terms of confidence and self-worth. Why can't I just exist? Why does this have to be such a big fucking thing that I have to announce to others? Why can't other people just mind their own fucking business and let me come out at my own pace?
He's also taller than me and way stronger, so that's fun. I'm not comfortable with the fact that he could beat the shit out of me if he felt like it, even if it seems unlikely that he'll do such a thing. :::
I was talking with my grandfather (who i'm not out to) earlier today and he called me a completely wrong, mostly femme name by complete accident and actually? I kind of like it now? I think I'm going to have to try out a new name now? I can't post it publicly here but wow I already have a second name for myself?
big nazi rallies and pgoroms were planned all over today, one near my area. and honestly none of them even showed up. every day people, not just blac bloc antifa types, were jumping at the bit to kick the shit out of them lmao, but none of them even showed up
I kinda like extreme heights. I'm not fussed on whatever height a partner is, generally I can appreciate anything, but if you are really tall or really short I think that's great. I guess because I am a median kinda height, but I either want you to put your chin on my head or let me use you as an armrest. Because cute
The ADHD really is ADHD-ing today.
Can I create another girl inside of me to forcefem me cause this part of transition sucks ngl

Oh my god I got ass eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I mean I already had a nice one even pre-E but now it's gotten noticeable even in boy pantsHaving a pretty lovely transiversary~ 4 years of being one of them gosh danged transes, it feels really nice.
Went out in my favourite casual outfit to go to a cafe with my brother who was visiting, and I even managed to push myself to go do groceries while still en femme. Proud of myself for that second bit. Plus honestly it's incredible how much better I feel from going out en femme after so long. And I got complimented when I got home by one of my roommate's friends! Still the cutest girl alive~
And apparently I slimmed a bit, since I can't wear my favourite skirt as a high waist quite as easily as I could before. I think my weight might be cycling considering I saw the increase of fat in my ass so that's nice. Sad I can't wear my favourite skirt now though, gonna have to tailor it smaller.
But now I'm back home and can take the rest of the day nice and easy and mess around building cute stuff on the minecraft server now that it's up. Feeling very, very good.
There's basically only one friend I haven't come out as trans to because we only talk on discord, and it's really starting to bother me that he doesn't know, but also I'm meeting him in person next month and I think it would be funny to tell him I just ate too much soy or something and that's why I look like this now idk.
He does treats me differently now so maybe he's already figured it out and is just waiting for me to say something anyway, I definitely act and sound pretty different than I used to.
i genuinely feel like i would be so much further ahead in life if i didn't have adhd. i could have a job that doesn't pay absolute shit, a degree, an earlier transition, etc.
actually debilitating
Genderfluid in the sense that inside of me there are two wolves and one of them has been having an existential crisis for most of the past 10 days and doesn't really care about gender that much right now as a result and the other really wants to be more feminine and gets most of the joy and dysphoria from that... and also there's like two dead wolves over on the side don't worry about that
<-- me right now
First time binding with trans tape, today.
::: spoiler not-so-quick initial review
It doesn't get the chest down completely flat, which I was expecting; however I do wish I had managed to bind a little flatter? Right now it looks like I have either small A cups or very large pecs, and there's definitely still cleavage there. In the videos I watched it seemed that the people in them were able to get slightly flatter results. This may also be an issue of self-perception and things coming across differently on video, though.
The good part is, when I put on a shirt, it does sell the illusion a lot better. From the front view the illusion works best, from the side view again, looks like small A cups to me but still not too bad. Definitely a lot better than the B/C cup boob silhouette that I was getting really tired of. (I don't know exactly what size bra I wear, the last time I wore a bra at all regularly I was a B cup but that was 5 years ago and I think my boobs have grown since then.)
Definitely feel a lot more comfortable than a traditional binder, which was my main reason for getting it. I got my first binder when I was 18, and right after getting that binder I got COVID. Since then, binders have just... not been comfortable for me, and the last time I tried wearing one I had to take it off really quickly just because of how much difficulty breathing I was having. I could probably get slightly flatter results with a binder, but I don't think it's worth the health risk. I know people also use sports bras for the compression, but I hate bras. They are sensory hell to me and they always have been.
I was not wearing a binder regularly because of how uncomfortable I found it. I think I may try to bind more regularly now with the tape, because yeah, always having to dissociate a bit from my chest area got to be tiring after idk two years of doing it. Hopefully I'll get top surgery sooner rather than later, but I think that's probably still at least a few years off, unfortunately.
Since this is my first time applying it, my application was pretty sloppy and I had to redo one side. I think I'll get better at that as time goes on.
Not having saggy tits is such a boost to my mental health. I know there are probably some people in this thread who want saggy tits, and all I can say is: take my saggy tit energy

Went thrifting today, first time clothes shopping in I think over a year so I kind of went all out and bought a lot of stuff, most of it in black because I can never have enough black pieces in my wardrobe. I'm most excited about the blazers I got, definitely looking forward to DIYing a punk blazer. I honestly feel like my wardrobe is missing some good basics; I really need a few good black dresses for example, and I didn't find any today that I loved.

I have been girlshopping for the past... maybe two or three hours? And my god everything is expensive, small, and/or poorly made. At first I was just adding stuff to the list, but after looking deeper at the reviews a lot of it is cheap garbage that won't even fit me right.
I need to re-evaluate and pick the handful of things I want most I guess. Why is being a girl so expensive.
Anthropology has a lot to answer for. Back in the 90s, a transphobe named Serena Nanda turned the gaze of the university onto the issue of gender in India and we are still living with the consequences. With the power of imperial knowledge-making behind her, she has laid down the dogma that only (educated, middle-class, white) Westerners claim to be trans women while those Indians we call hijra are actually a third gender. All the cis academics since agree with her and even the Indian courts cite her, so it must be true, right? So if you see photos of a protest with signs like "Hijras are women" or Indian trans women saying that they're trans women, you can rest assured that's that just our malign colonial influence. The exotic truth, on the other hand, is safely preserved in the centers of power of the Anglophone world thanks to the daily labor of cis academics everywhere – preserved from the colonial force of white trans women who threaten to extend their reach everywhere.
sisyphus must be stoked for the heat death of the universe

Having trans thoughts all day every day is tiring, actually.
Also had the chance to buy a cute plushie the other day and didn't take it (cuz scared), kicking myself now.
A couple days ago I was speaking with my mother and she deadnamed me. Much to my surprise, it did not affect me in the slightest when I used to get angry with her. I guess I've finally dissociated with it. Kinda nice that my deadname holds no dominion over me any longer.
look, i'm not trying to troll the weird transphobes by fucking with their own logic, but every time I hear that one tired transphobe argument of "but this isn't how god made you", I can't help but just flatly disagree. I'm not sure if there was some form of divine intelligence that aided or steered in my creation, but if there was, I'm pretty sure god just made me trans. It's really that simple
::: spoiler body stuff, mostly positive i had a really interesting conversation with a cis woman friend who is the same height as me, and has a large bone structure (mine is slightly larger but we're similar in a lot of ways). i'm totally cool with my height, i think i have the right height for my sense of self. and i was kinda surprised to learn that she has always wanted to be shorter, more petite etc. surprised because i have always appreciated how she looks and i know she appreciates the strenght etc that come with how she's built.
it's like she has more gender dysphoria as a cis woman than i do. and my heart goes out to her for it. she can relate in a lot of ways to my experience being trans and intersex. :::
I have too much anxiety to go to an actual barber shop so I’ve been doing my own hair and it’s a bit of a mess right now
fun little trans thing: looking down at the ground and seeing your own cleavage like you're checking your health in that one jurassic park game.
::: spoiler dysphoria (but I'm actually feeling good right now) Chat I am so big/cooked. I was talking with some lovely people earlier about shoe size and its so over for me. I knew my feet were big but apparently my idea of "very small" (I remember wearing bigger at like 11/12) is actually big for women. Basically its all over. T has made my body so incredibly large.
Supposedly this large size doesn't effect passing but I don't buy it. Also just being small and cute would be kinda nice idk.
I know this sounds like I'm sad/crying or whatever but I'm actually just

::: spoiler starting HRT week 3, boobs and cum, dead bedroom Third sub-c shot. Nipples were sensitive all last week. This morning I noticed my ejaculation was mostly clear, so I guess my sperm production is down.
Girlfriend and I aren't having sex atm so she can find more sense of safety, which is something we both want. But there's no flirting or passion in our relationship right now and because of chronic tension and cPTSD, I hurt myself and flareup every time I try to go do something fun with her.
Feeling like I'm going through all these sexual changes alone, like I can't share with her right now without it making things uncomfortable. And like she'd be happier dating someone that's not chronically tense to the point of disability. :::
On the bright side, third HRT shot and started voice training. Working with a straw to feel more vibration in the front of my face. Yesterday I was on the back step smoking, talking to brainworms in my femm voice.

::: spoiler job hunting I feel like I am in this weird position where my past work experience is rather atypical for someone my age to the point where despite the fact that it was pretty specialized work, I don't feel confident in being able to get another job like it. For context I was an art teacher/art teacher's assistant (I honestly do not really know what category I'd fall into) at this private art studio, right out of high school. So I have a lot of experience with teaching art, working with kids K-12, and also with photo editing. But also I don't have a college degree yet, let alone any sort of teacher's certificate so I don't feel confident in applying for most art teaching jobs. Art tutoring jobs, maybe...? :::

When I was young, I hoped I could be beautiful someday
Then it became hoping I could be decent looking
Then it became hoping I could look normal enough to go out in public without feeling uncomfortable
Now the bar's sunk to the level of just hoping I can put up with myself enough to function sometimes
I feel like I'm running out of expectations to lower and ways to disappoint myself more
I know sometimes I just have shitty mental health days and can catastrophize and this ain't my first rodeo

::: spoiler boy mode, suicide attempt, and body image When I'm boy moding my body image is not accurate. I 100% have had hair bangs down to my chin for over a year.
When I'm boy moding I imagine that my hair is shaved short.
I also noticed yesterday in the hospital, after boy mode landed me there by eating a bunch of pills*, that I've been covering up worry with restlessness, anger, and sensual desire. It happens reflexively. Boy mode doesn't allow for worry and this quickly blows up my relationship with my gf, other people I'm close with, and my life in general.
Noticing this distorted body image I think will help me be more mindful of myself. And challenging the false body image feels affirming even if worry is uncomfortable for me. It's also easier for my GF than this mess I keep putting her through.
*I won't say what but it was dicey. I have some schooling in pharmacology and had researched which meds and how much when upset last month. This was impulse yesterday and I quickly regretted it. I ate some activated charcoal at home and they gave me more at the hospital as well as IV fluids. I think the charcoal caught a lot of it based on subjective experience and articles I had read about overdosing on this med. There's less dangerous ones in this class I'll talk to my Dr about switching too. :::
::: spoiler boobs I think I've always had breast buds. Very sensitive nipples since puberty. A week into sub-c HRT and they're already sore when I barely bump my arm against them etc. :::
::: spoiler Discussing bottom surgery For me, life after bottom surgery has been amazing. I'm still amazed sometimes when I look in the mirror and see a vagina. Sometimes I still have thoughts of "I wish I had a vagina" and have an "oh wait" moment just a second later. It's something you'd think one would get used to after 4 months, but gods, it still amazes me day after day. :::

::: spoiler complaining about scars ::: spoiler self harm scars/talking about past self harm So as some of you know, I have a bit of a problem. Relapsed twice recently, although I'm really hoping that's the last of it. I know they still have a lot of fading to do but they're very obvious right now. Very pink. I don't know... Scars just make me really sad. Especially because I really like thighs, and I'd like to like mine. But now there's (potentially) two big ol marks on them, reminding me.
I have others, in more obvious spots even too. I don't know. Just hate scarring. I guess in some ways it keeps me from doing it more. Often it's the only reason I don't.
I don't know, sorry I guess. I'm not like super upset or crying right now. Just been thinking about it a lot and wanted to say something about it. A lot of the time I'll just get stuck on a thought until I talk about it. Maybe that's an autism thing idk. :::

I got spontaneously gendered correctly at work yesterday (first time) by someone who actually knows me (not an accident) but only through work. Kinda bizarre, made me feel very weird conflicted feelings because I def have a crush on her but she reads as straight (maybe bi?

::: spoiler weight loss When I went vegan almost a year ago, I lost about 30 lbs fairly rapidly over the course of a month. It made a large part of my wardrobe unwearable. I didn't have a lot of money so I was only able to replace a portion of it using thrift stores. Then about 3 months ago, I started Adderall for ADHD. I lost another 10 lbs and now some of those replacement clothes are getting loose and baggy too, including a new bra that's now too loose in the band. And I have even less money than I did before and I'm at a loss at what to do. I've tried but putting the weight back on but I can't eat enough to the calories to do that. I have a sewing kit but not like a machine or anything and trying to adjust clothes seems like a nightmare. I also don't have a ton of experience so it'd be slow and I'd probably fuck it up too.
I don't regret going vegan or starting medication but I wish I didn't lose the weight. I miss the roundness in my face

::: spoiler height dysphoria stuff This past week has been filled with constant reminders that I'm way taller than the average person. People commenting or joking about how tall I am compared to them, my head almost reaching the ceiling, hitting my head on door frames, couches and chairs being too low for my long legs, can't use changing rooms because the curtains are too low. I hate being tall so much, even if it doesn't have any impact on passing (I think it does). I was hoping hrt would make me lose a couple of centimeters at least, but I'm almost a year into hrt now and still the exact same fucking height

There is evidence in the code that the devs tried to get LANTERN Lighting system and proper alpha textures/materials to work in DX, but it was abandoned probably due to time constraints.
Naw what bugs me is that they took this Gamecube "update" and then ported it to Windows XP... and 360/PS3... and Steam... while making the video, audio and texture quality even worse. Why, Sega? Death to america. Of course I own one of each cause I am very normal, but the only good version is literally emulating the Dreamcast release, very sad. Not every change in SADX is for the worse, but so many damage the game's ✨ immaculate vibes ✨
If you don't know about SADX somehow, you can read about it here!
I have seen the Dreamcast Conversion Mod, and I think it looks about as good as Dreamcast but it does not play much better. Chat, they fucked up either the controls, the collision maps or both in SADX, I get caught on stuff I would not in Dreamcast :(
Are those Manscape razors actually good for shaving your pubic hair and balls?
Honestly consider getting something like that, might be cheaper than the add up of spending money on disposable razors.
This is by far the worst PMS I've gone through to date. BY FAR. I've been doubled over with cramps for 3 days. I'm super fatigued and can't do anything but sleep. My emotions are bouncing around like a bouncy ball in a dryer. I'm angry, I'm sad, I'm elated, I'm hurt, I'm happy, I'm crying, I'm offended. It's like my emotions are a die in a Sorry! popper and some 4 year old is wailing away at it without abandon. This sucks. This fucking sucks. I hate it. I just want a normal weekend. I want to be able to just paint my fucking minis and smile and not worry about ripping someone apart that doesn't deserve it. Now I'm just waiting for the gods ending migraine that I've been getting with PMS the last few times to crop up and force me into a dark room for an entire day.

I finally brought myself to get "female" shower gel and shampoo (and conditioner) 😊
But I now realize I unconsciously picked the exact same scents my mom and her sisters would have picked 🤔
I did the water test, and the bottles were labeled correctly. So nothing wrong on that front, at least. The EEn has dissolved to the point where I can only see little specks when I shake up the bottle. Hoping it finishes over the weekend.

@CDommunist@hexbear.net answering your guitar instruction questions in the new mega. Justinguitar is my favorite resource on the interwebs, and from my experience as a guitar instructor, most method books are rather similar for those starting out on the instrument. I would encourage pursuing a teacher if the discipline of having semi regular check ins for improvement helps you personally!

::: spoiler fan fiction thoughts, not horny for once So I'm reading this WoW fan fiction and the author gave a nice chapter-long look into the thought and psyche of the night elves. And that got me thinking about how a race that is basically immortal would start to think about every other race ie. as short lived and expendable, worth very little when you can blink and everyone you knew from them is gone. And that got me thinking about how inherently fascistic that whole thought is. An eternity of existence and not a single intelligent thought has been raised.
it's a shame Blizzard sucks at writing because they have so many good building blocks for SOMEthing, anything interesting, but that's why i read the fan fiction

::: spoiler relationship stuff Girlfriend wants to have a non-sexual open romantic relationship. I'm having difficulty with feeling horny but think I'll just be celebate as I don't feel safe really dating other people.
Not sure how to get through the hornyness. The hormones are changing how I relate to sex but I still like sex.
Is there a definition for this type of relationship so I can find resources for having a non-sexual romantic relationship or resources anyone can share? :::

::: spoiler Last skirt came in from my first order of girl clothes and.... it kinda sucks :(
The material feels cheap, its too long for how short I am, just a bit to tight for how wide I am. Plus I think I'm too big to wear high-waisted skirts right now anyways...
This fuckin stings because when my egg was cracking and I was looking at women's clothing, that skirt was the first thing to make me audibly say "Oooh! How pretty!" I wanted to try it so bad. I was sooooo fucking excited to see how I looked in it after seeing how I looked in the cheaper one I bought on a whim. I just wanna look as pretty as the girl in my head is.

As some of you know, I am thinking about coming out... maybe not immediately but I am thinking about it. One of my big worries is them not understanding, and doing things that might hurt me without meaning to (am fragile
) Obviously I can explain things to them, but I don't want to have to explain everything. Its hard enough being a baby trans without having to explain everything to a cis person.
So my question is what resources would you recommend a cis person read/watch/whatever to better understand a trans person? I'd look at anything you suggested as well obviously, and with that I'm sure explaining would be easier, but being able to offload some of it would be very nice. Any recommendations would be appreciated
::: spoiler Added concerns They are christian and probably think I'm going to hell for this. Not that I care what they think about that, lmao, but also they haven't pestered me about going to hell in forever (I'm a bad girl who was already going) but just to give you an idea where they might be at. But they're the like, "gays are going to hell for living in sin, but that's their issue to work out with god" kinda christian if that makes sense. I don't know, anything I can give them to help them understand and alleviate things a little for me would be really nice. :::

oh yeh, I'm so cool
remember back when there'd be a big release of a game, that'd have like 5 different versions that played entirely differently, even with different stories. like Star Wars episode 3 came out on PS2 and Xbox with one version, a totally different one on DS, another totally different one on gameboy advance, and then they always had a shitty gameloft mobile game with the same name too
I read through half of Boy Parts and just couldn't finish. I've read plenty of extreme horror, I've read plenty of stuff with annoying or morally bad protagonists, I dunno what didn't catch me about it at all. It was like "what if American Psycho was about this one sociopathic alt chick who photographs erotica/fetish art and it took place in the 2020s and also... its a GIRL protagonist" and I dunno, I thought Id be more into that premise. Kinda reminds me of what I would've written to be edgy when I was 15

So how did everyone here react when they found out sonic wasn't real?
Thought I'd check out a trans dating app but the best trans dating app article I was reading used totally offensive language (wtf it was on an lgbt website!)
I might try hooking up with a female friend I like. Gf doesn't want sexual intimacy and the emotional intimacy in our relationship seems to revolve around hurt feelings and defenisiveness.
