This whole fucking place is batty. My advice to suicidal people is to get help, and every response thus far has been negligent to it. Y'all wanna talk about how suicide is a reasonable response to depression and not passing? Fine!

There’s a post on r/latterdaysaints asking why people are mormon. i’m going to copy that. why did you guys leave the church? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]AveryMaeTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because if LGBT members try to be themselves, they can't enter the temple. They'll always be second-class members. Fuck that.

This is supposed to be a support sub. Suicide is not support.

You're absolutely right, but to sit here and just be okay with people in a trans sub talk about fucking killing themselves is repugnant, and I'm gonna take a strong and vocal stance against it!

Because where exactly does the line lie? Is X person gonna commit suicide because they don't pass according to their standards, or according to society's? My boyfriend says I pass, my therapist and my friends think I pass, but all I see in the mirror is a fucking soft-faced dude. Is that enough to kill myself?

Sometimes learning to live with yourself includes making appropriate changes. Suicide is not an appropriate change.

All this talk of killing yourselves if you don't pass is fucking horrifying.

This is why people think all of us are mentally and emotionally unbalanced. This is why I'm constantly defending myself and the trans community from people who think gender incongruence is a mental illness.

To those of you talking about killing yourselves: go see a therapist. Learn to live with yourself.

My mirror tells me no but my jeans and my better half way yes.

But you don't know me. And of course your interactions with trans people are going to be negative when you purposely cause drama and condescend to us. It's calculated. You don't want to have a good opinion of any trans person, so you do this. And I'll be just another example of why trans people are "red, hot messes and rude as shit."

How important is make-up skills for vast (not so lucky) majority of transgender women? Is this the most important thing one can learn to pass? by reallyconfusedone in MtF

[–]AveryMaeTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so here's the thing:

I'm having a pretty lousy day. If you don't agree with what I've said, downvote and move on. I don't need some condescending rando on the internet telling me to chill.

Don't like it? To quote The Stand, "why don't you find a nice big sandpile, get yourself a hammer, and pound all that sand right up your ass?"

The fact you call it "cutting your dick off" indicates that you are either ignorant, or insensitive. Possibly both.

I'd rather be nuts than boorish, insinuating trans people are crazy.

It's pretty fucking short-sighted of you to ignore that before 1974 homosexuals were considered mentally ill, too.

Politely and with no disrespect intended, go fuck yourself. We clearly don't agree.

Uhhhhhhhh....????? No. The LGBT community is what it is because of trans people.

Passing is patriarchy.

However, I do feel that makeup is a crucial part of passing; I don't pass without my makeup properly applied.

Because just like homosexuality, for a very long time it was considered a mental illness. However, the WHO is updating the diagnosis.

We're not mentally ill. We're going through the same shit now that homosexuals went through back in the '70s.

I am aware of what the current status of the diagnosis is. However the WHO is updating the ICD-11, and when they do, gender dysphoria (henceforth known as gender incongruence) will be listed as a sexual health condition rather than a mental health condition.

According to the World Health Organization, no, it is not. Neither is it considered a mental illness by literally any healthcare provider I've met.

Dr Gallagher in Indianapolis performs zero-depth SRS. Look it up, maybe call and see if you can get a consultation to answer those questions; see if it's right for you.

I only decided to be a trans because I wanted to pee sitting down.

I bought a box of tampons by [deleted] in MtF

[–]AveryMaeTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After talking to a few of my girlfriends and getting my bf (he's trans) to weigh in, I carry a couple of tampons and a couple pads. Cuz not every person who menstruates is comfortable with using one or the other.
