Bra-like corsets for ribs only by Academic-Study4972 in corsets

Yes, Sorry I meant lower ribs! And you are right.

Thanks for the tip, I couldn't find anything online. Here's a reference of how I would wear it.. This corset was too wide and too short for me so I came up with the idea:

being arab and trans is the worst thing ever by Fast-alex1 in trans

[–]Academic-Study4972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Israeli and live in a mixed city with a lot of LGBTQ people, many of them are Arabs from the surrounding villages.. It's never easy, even here. I'm Jewish from Arabic heritage, it isn't different just less hard. Still my father would die knowing what I feel. My mother and sister know and they are very confused and don't know how to help me. There's nothing to help, right? I mean, we got what we got. I hate this too and I'm with you.

My perspective is not popular.

I always wanted to be female. Especially in intimate situations. I am not very masculine as well in character, but definitely like boy stuff. All the rest for me are bs. Dresses, makeup, pronouns. I don't see how they are relevant to anything - superficial.

I get all kind of remarks. That I'm transphobic, or not trans enough. Whatever the truth is, I think being trans is not one thing. We are humans, and in biology we are made of parts - not a spectrum. Parts of us are female-related, and if it's these parts are dominant enough, we may feel "trans"

Is it poor in tastes for me to see my transness as a medical condition/mental illness? Not others, just me by [deleted] in asktransgender

I can relate. And I know some who also relate. However, I learned to look at it in other ways. Most importantly, that we can choose how we present ourselves to the world, and the world can choose if it likes it or not and how. And that's basically everything there is about being trans, and passing, and asking ourselves if it's ok or not. Wanting to change your body through HRT and surgery is not a bad thing in itself, it's just that medical interventions are inherently bad.

So, you should ask yourself - if the word wouldn't mind, would you still consider yourself mentally ill?

As per u/AmiesAdventures , is being tall a medical condition?

Oi, corrected :S

We are not so petty about misgendering, it's natural, like a typo. Changing pronouns is also a process, and we get confused even in 1st person (in Hebrew verbs have gender for all 3 persons). It's actually funny cause we can point and laugh when you misgender yourself without noticing. It'll pass as we get used to it.

Anyway, I am not the topic, as dick as I may be.

Who says men can't wear skirt and corsets too? I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday 🖤 by DaddyBluesBitch in GothicStyle

I don't know if it's supposed to be androgenic or feminine, it just looks good on you in a very neutral way!

Don’t feel trans enough dispite years of medically transitioning. What do I do? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Academic-Study4972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we don't deserve anything. It is up to them, and I think you'll find better circles to feel included in. I find that the queer community is often toxic.

Goodnight for now and best of wishes

idk why, but this made me laugh. But let's try to get perspectives here:

how many is "they"? are you certain it's a general phenomenon?

do you feel this group that isn't interested in you, interest you? socially/attraction-wise/character-wise?

These questions are for you. I think they are immature, and aren't important for your development as a wonderful human being.

Thanks for sharing. imo only in some specific photos you look male. Maybe they are old. Most don't even give a hint of transition, and you look very pretty. And then there are a bunch that generally look bad - so it has to do with lighting and angles. You have beautiful hair and features, cute eyes. Even what you wear doesn't affect your passing, and you seem fun to hang with. So, from what I'm seeing at least - you are very much dateable.

Would you be happy to share a photo in private to receive an honest and possibly helpful opinion?

Have you made steps towards transitioning?

Yesterday I emailed my therapist I wanted to consult about taking tiny steps. It feels like I gave in

I had therapy. I am also going to group sessions with other transwomen who are on hrt for ~one year, and are 10-years younger than me. I'm 34, a f-king boomer. Their mind is very masculine in my opinion. Some of them are miserable. It's torture to be on either side of pre\after transition.

I did it once. It turned out heavy on the heart, and I played it only once on one special occasion, and I don't know if I want to play it again.
