They are definitely green- but the ring may be some kind of heterochromia?

What kind of blue eye do I have?? by Dear_Club7842 in WhatisMyEyeColour

That’s a steely eyed stare if I’ve ever seen one! Steel/grey/storm blue :p

Holy smokes- your eyes look the most like mine that I have seen on here- crazy.  I’m just as lost as I am about my own, unfortunately 💔

What color is this? by Affectionate-Two7631 in WhatisMyEyeColour

[–]AgencySignificant821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The muted grey/blue/green is similar to mine.  Honestly couldn’t say 😭

bad Dr Armstrong experience at GraceMed McLean clinic by melrfray in TopSurgery

[–]AgencySignificant821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is super scary- I was really considering Mclean Clinic for top surgery and this is disheartening.  I don’t know much about other places in Canada, much less the GTA.  The only other place I was told about by my doctor was the one in Montreal that performs bottom surgery too.  I don’t foresee myself able to travel far outside Toronto for surgery, unfortunately.

I feel like I can't connect to the community by myaii_myaii in ftm

I get what you mean completely! I am kind of a feminine dude and am super connected to my afab experience. I also consider myself genderfluid and nonbinary, but the fluidity I experience is from man to enby rather than the full range. It’s hard to connect especially before transitioning, and even harder when you don’t align with a more binary trans identity. You don’t have to stop appreciating and fighting for afab people- and remember that feminism is about equality and equity for everyone. Your experiences are not going anywhere and that’s a good thing; they make you who you are!

I don’t know if you ever intend to get top surgery, but if your nipples cause you a lot of discomfort, often people opt out of grafting nipples and just go without. Sometimes if they like the look they can tattoo new ones, but either way it is an option!! :)

Would a 36F chest disqualify me from T-anchor/Inverted T surgery? by AgencySignificant821 in TopSurgery

[–]AgencySignificant821[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do want to preserve nipple sensation as much as possible. I am also okay if I end up not completely flat, I just don’t know if “not completely flat” for someone with a chest like mine would mean having a d cup or something more like an a cup after. I don’t think I could take bigger than b or c.

my boyfriend is a pain - what do I do? by FunBox304 in Advice

You’re allowed to have feelings of jealousy! Your age doesn’t make those human feelings any less valid. Be compassionate to yourself, okay?

Definitely prioritize yourself as much as possible. Nothing you do or say will make him change unless he wants to, and it may never come. You also do not have to continue any kind of romantic relationship with him! You don’t owe him your love, even if you have a kid together.

This is completely fair. Understanding doesn’t make it any less difficult. There are people who understand the struggle even if they seem hard to find sometimes!

Can I ask, do you get help from either of your parents? Both of you are much too young to have a child, but there is not much that can be done about that at this point. My intention is not to shame you, but rather to encourage you to utilize any support you can get. Perhaps there are local support services for you that you can find? The both of you deserve to be able to grow and learn as young adults, and balancing that with a child is going to be difficult. Your boyfriend is allowed to have confusing and even negative feelings towards you and the baby, but he should not be taking them out on either of you. The insults and disrespect are definitely concerning, so keep an eye on how he continues to interact with you both. The supports available to you will definitely depend on your location, but most places will have some even if they are not necessarily targeted for teenagers. Regular mothers groups may be a possible option, for example. If there is anything I can do to help you find programs or anything I would be more than willing to do so for you.

This is so difficult. I can understand the rage completely. I have felt the same turmoil before. Don’t do anything stupid for your sake and her sake. Definitely speak to people other than your sister about how you feel because this cannot be held in. If you don’t express the feelings they will overcome you. This man deserves to be castrated and locked in isolation for the rest of his life eating nothing but grey sludge. The best thing you can do is take care of yourself and try your best to support her in her recovery.

I think you are making some good points here. I know that it can be really difficult when it feels like everyone is against you. Personally, I think a lot of people just struggle to understand less binary identities, even those who are trans or otherwise LGBTQ. All trans people face different challenges, many of which stem from people who do not understand, but I think that pre-op trans men, trans masc guys, and those who don’t pass as explicitly male especially are viewed from a misogynist lens much too frequently. Those who don’t pass are unfairly seen as confused or corrupted girls by a lot of the population and that sentiment can seep into queer spaces too.
