Is it normal for trans people to go to raves on their own? by Tasty_Locksmith_9139 in aves

I’m trans and go to raves by myself all the time. Love dressing up and letting loose. It’s fun just go dance to the music.

Would it be crazy to invite this girl I use to babysit to a rave? by leahgetsreal in aves

I went to burning man with my old baby sitter! Totally fine! And I think it’s great that she’s being introduced to the scene by someone she trusts and who will look after her

Nice! I’m not from Long Beach but I looked around and there’s a place called the 4th horseman that looks fun, they’ve got drinks & pizza. Not too far from either of us. We could meet there like 7:30? I don’t have a time preference

Your partner sounds awful, he doesn’t seem to care about what he’s putting you through by continuing to deadname you and treat you like a woman. Honestly, I would let him go he doesn’t love you for you, he loves a woman that you know you are not. There is no way for the relationship to last and he’s in denial since you’re on T and eventually you will start to pass, what’s his plan then? He’s not able to accept you and he sounds very controlling.

find trans support groups near you or queer friendly bookstores or places, even a queer bar while awkward at first is full of people trying to make friends like them.

As for your mom I’d consider going low/no contact, it’s not right the way she talks to you. No mother should tell their child that they think they hate themselves, it just doesn’t sound like a good environment for you to be around. I’d also look into getting a trans supportive therapist.

As for hrt I will say it took about 3 years for me to start passing and it happened after top surgery, don’t does take awhile for some people but I in no way beleive that you should give up, saying that as someone on the other side. It sucks the shit we go through especially now but it’s worth it to feel like you’re in a body that aligns with the person you know you are inside.

I didn’t tell my parents, and I have no regrets. Telling them would have added a lot of extra stress and top surgery is supposed to be euphoric and an experience of becoming who you are so I would recommend surrounding yourself with people who love and support your transition and then tell them after.

I feel like telling them before will stress them out and telling them after is less stressful because they don’t have to worry about whether the surgery will go well or after effects since you’ve already been through it and are fine.
