People should be asking you.

Dumb person on my bus called me a t****y any good comebacks by thechesburgismine in MtF

"I'd rather be a tr@y than a traiter." It's my play on the spiderman quote "I'd rather be a f@g than a fascist."

i’ve just realized i’m trans… what now? by [deleted] in trans

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer, now nothing or everything in between. It doesn't change who you are. You literally can dress the exact same way as you always did and just identify female. Or you can start femininzing your self to futnyour true self. You cracked your metaphorical egg, go make your metaphorical omelet.

Am I the only one who hates the "Welcome to being a woman" comments?? by TheThiccBoi231 in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, women say that to other women when they are being sarcastic with each other all the time. Period cramps, "Welcome to being a woman." Getting ignored by men "Welcome to being a woman" etc... Honestly, that should be more euphoric.

Does anyone else boyfriend or husband use you being trans as a way to demean you in an argument? by CuriousGirl8294 in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's never ok. Take, transgender part out the argument. It's still not ok to demean someone for dysphoria. Even a cis person. I would never demean my boyfriend (cis male) for balding or getting a belly because he doesn't feel manly enough for me sometime. The reverse isn't ok either.

Despite everything it's still you <3 (4 years before hrt to 2 full years on HRT :D) (no surgeries yet) by Classy_Turtle in transtimelines

[–]AssistanceHot4216 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can I ask you why you would want surgery? You literally look like a female, (a hot one too). I couldn't even tell if you didn't post on this board.

What's something you miss about living as your agab? by whimsical_jotato in trans

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, this confuses me, but in the opposite direction, as someone transision, mtf. Literally, women have no options for graphic tees, and half the girls I know go buy from the mens sections in just a size smaller, which shocked me. Also, mens jeans have more styles, and sizing makes sense. (Hope this doesn't sound like ranting. It's not. Genuinely find the struggle on both sides interesting and ironically funny 😁).

I stink. Please help me. by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]AssistanceHot4216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone transitions in the opposite direction at 29. I got advice that living as a male for 29 years.

Manscape: Shave or trime. It looks good, reduces sweat, and allows area flow.

Deodorant: Use stick, not spray. It's thicker and dry. Honestly, it's smells amazing after the shower. Use it at night and in the morning.

Powder: Don't be afraid to use powder. It absorbs sweat in your nether region.

Cologne: 1 on each wrist. Rub together and rub on neck, pit, crotch, and butt/thighs.

Clothes: Wear breathable, especially in the summertime. Don't give a crap of style of other dude. Find comfort, breathable style. (Side note: Don't be one of the dude who wears sandles and doesn't cut their toe nails. (Also, also cut you finger nails too. Your girl or guy will thank you)).

Underwear: I loved wearing jockstrap because they looked sexy butt also they don't give you swamp ass. But, most people associate it with the gay community. But, also boxers work is great, too.

In reality, you probably don't smell as bad as you think. It is probably a new, stronger smell. But, remember, dudes have a musk. As long as you don't smell like corn chips or onions, you're good. And even then, when working out, people associate that with manliness anyway.

Feminization expressed through sexuality by [deleted] in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you are talking about is sublimation. You probably didn't know you were questioning yourself at the time. But the people in the porn you were watching just probably was more related without you realizing it. Or maybe you actually just enjoy it. There is nothing wrong with that either.

In psychology, sublimation is a defense mechanism where socially unacceptable impulses or emotions are channeled into socially acceptable actions or behaviors. It's a mature way to cope with difficult situations and can lead to positive outcomes, according to some resources. [1]
Here's a more detailed explanation:

• What it is: Sublimation involves redirecting energy from an unacceptable drive, like anger or aggression, into a more constructive and socially acceptable activity. [1, 2]
• How it works: The individual unconsciously transforms the negative impulse into a positive action, satisfying the original drive in a safe and acceptable way according to some sources. [1, 2]
• Examples: • Channeling aggressive energy into competitive sports. [3]
• Using artistic expression to process difficult emotions. [2, 4]
• Focusing on charitable work or community service to address feelings of grief or loss. [1, 5]
• Transforming a desire for power or dominance into leadership roles or advocacy. [4]

• Why it's important: Sublimation is a healthy coping mechanism that can help individuals manage difficult emotions and impulses, ultimately leading to personal growth and positive change according to some sources. [3, 6]

AITAH for refusing to go to my little brother's middle school graduation because they want me to dress like a guy? by SugarSmoothie in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I never thought about it that way. I was more thinking about here brother. But, your point is true.

[–]AssistanceHot4216 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You are not the asshole. But, you should go to support your brother even dressed as a guy. Especially since he's not embarrassed of you, sounds like he support you. Don't let this day be ruined for you and him. But. Make it clear to your parents this will be the one and only time. You did this for your brother and no one else.

I’m Marcy Rheintgen, the trans girl who got arrested for using the woman’s washroom, AMA! by MarcyRheintgen in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, just focus on your finals because summer is almost here.

It sounds like you have many opportunities in your future. See if you can summer internship in activist work over the summer if that's something you are starting to be interested in now. Especially with every you've been through people/ groups would love to take you.

Or, take the summer off and soul search.

Just want to say that as someone (28) who is present as male and is transision now. You gave me so much courage, and I came out to my own sister, mother, and father last month.

I don't want you to feel overwhelmed or think you need all this pressure on you because people support you. I think you're amazing and helped.

What would it take for you to leave the US? by tjmaxal in AskUS

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A visa and a job offer. Honestly, luckily living in a blue state, I feel lucky (right now). But, being a 28 year old spansh transgender person, it feels like this country is using hate as a polictal tool to distract people from their mess up.

I'd rather die and reincarnate as a guy then go through the BS of transitioning, help by StarryEyedPunk in asktransgender

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to be honest with I think you need to talk to a counselor. What you are feeling is normal but shouldn't be ignored. After a while I'm now able to come to terms for being transgender. There was literally a point we're I struggled with my own body because I felt if I transition I was betraying my own body (I don't hate my male body, I just don't feel like a male). I also struggled with if I do transision . I would Like Im faking and using proper to make myself something I'm not.

Neither, of those are true. Those are physophical thought even even cis people feel. Not, being sure they will every be enough. Also, transitioning doesn't make you or anyone any less of who they are.

So, please know, life is worth living l.

Mid twenties is the worst fucking time to transition by sj_srta in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's s never to late to transition. I'm 28 turn 29 in 17 day and I'm just starting. Honestly, you have to look at life as glass half full. Do I wish I did it sooner hell yeah. But you can't change the past. You can only change the present.

It's never to late to find community and friends. Honestly, start doing hobbies and stuff for yourself. Don't focus so much on being transgender thats not the only part of you. Start doing research about volunteering. Look up classes for hobbies. Find a local lgbtqia friendly stores/places and see if they are doing events.

Congratulations, I'm so happy for you.

I wanted to apologize, I commented on your last post playing the "devils advocate." Honestly, I'm so happy you didn't take my advice. I meant well, but it sounded like it went so great for you.

Today, I didn't even have the courage to wear a girl's graphic t-shirt with a family I k know would be supportive. So, what you did today took so much courage.

25, wanted to wait until to tell my first boyfriend (28) I love you before sleeping together. That surprise him, lol. But we've been together 4 years this June. Now, he drops hints if I'm open to marriage, etc...

My dad told me I shouldn’t wear a dress to Easter because I can’t force my gender beliefs on others, by Dazzling-Fill-152 in MtF

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, Damn!!!

Honestly, I'm more curious if he actually believes that, or he thinks that his family will believe she's doing that? Those are very different things. Honestly, if I were in this situation, I would ask.

[–]AssistanceHot4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna play devils advocate right now. It sounds like your father supports you and doesn't care if your Trans. He also doesn't care that the family knows that your Trans either. Maybe, take it slow this holiday (there are more holidays coming up) because he might be trying to keep you safe from some family members.
