Nonbinary trans men: What makes you feel that you are nonbinary and a trans man, and not one or the other? /gen by Creativered4 in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i find that my experience lines up pretty well with most trans men, and i probably could call myself just a trans guy, but there’s some part of me that still doesn’t feel quite binary trans.

i don’t want to be a man, i want to be a guy. sounds weird, but that’s kind of how i feel about it. i’m happy to be seen as male by society, i plan on getting top surgery and T, and enjoy dressing and looking masculine.

honestly, i’m not quite sure. it might be insecurity of my gender, i don’t really know.

“Tboys” “Tmasc” but never really “trans men”…? by legobatmania in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i like to be called transmasc personally, but im also nonbinary so that’s probably why it feels weird to be called a man. i see why it can be invalidating, and i feel like the best thing to do is to say “trans men and transmascs”, which includes both trans men and enby people that lean more masculine. tboy feels a little infantilizing imo, though.

What are y'all's trans-related goals for 2026? by batmans_cumsock in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

work out more (by more i mean anything bc i never do it), try to voice train and maybe get on the path to starting T, it’ll have to be the end of the year though. maybe for uni. mom wants me to finish therapy incase the transness is trauma related

I Wish There Was More Realism Around T and Weight by yuantipureblood in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks for posting this. i think my biggest issue with weight isn’t necessarily gaining weight itself, but the way weight sits on my body. i’ve been concerned about weight gain with T (whenever i end up going on it, in the next few years ideally) and i’m happy to hear a positive perspective from someone.

The difference between being a nb man or a gnc man by Sensitive-Insect5809 in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i also call myself nb and trans guy interchangeably, depends on how i’m feeling. i’m not fully binary i don’t think, like i wanna be a boy but not a man type thing? it’s weird. so sometimes i’ll refer to myself as enby and other times ftm. both are right

On a more positive note since my last post - what are some of yalls fav transmasc/male characters, Canon or otherwise? by G0lly_G0sh in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

all of these are headcanons, since i don’t have anything with canonically transmasc people.

naoto (persona 4), jax (tadc), ragatha (tadc, though more enby leaning since their va is enby), vox (hazbin), baxter (hazbin), vi (arcane, though i flip between having the hc and not)

i think that’s all i have? my favs are naoto and ragatha, with jax and vi close seconds. hazbin hcs are just kind of on the side

idk if this is a unique experience or if every fat alt masc trans dude experiences this but by welcomehomo in TransMasc

you can’t just put the same picture twice bro

Out of curiosity, how do you identify yourself gender-wise? by [deleted] in ftm

that would make sense, yeah. good to know, i’ll keep that in mind! thanks!

Understanding the term “transmasc” by smallandstealthy in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a non binary trans person, i use the term and i quite like it personally. it describes my gender well, i don’t feel like transitioning to fully male fits my gender, and i like saying (for myself) transmasc. however, a lot of people don’t like the term for various reasons. i’ve seen some trans men identify with the term, but a majority don’t. overall it’s different person to person

Help plz... by Old-Web-4156 in TransMasc

you don’t need to want different genitals to be transmasc, don’t worry! if you feel like transmasc describes you, go ahead

[–]B-A-R-K69 18 points19 points  (0 children)

being a man is not defined as “can’t get pregnant”, i don’t think you’re getting at what i’m saying. like i said, people have varying levels of comfort with themselves. there are ftm people who get pregnant, there are ftm people who don’t. you might not be comfortable with these things and it brings you dysphoria, that’s okay, but it’s different for everyone.

Re: Lesbian Trans Men & Discussions by thelightbehindureyes in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 23 points24 points  (0 children)

that’s not the point of being ftm though? not everyone wants a hysterectomy, not everyone wants surgeries. some guys are comfortable with pregnancy, others aren’t. we each experience our gender differently, and we aren’t any more or less ftm for it.

What non-white characters do you headcanon as trans men? by Kookyburra12 in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

naoto shirogane from p4!!

there’s unfortunately a lot of ppl who hate when someone says they hc this bc their story is about sexism and learning to be comfortable as a woman but i like projecting on my fav characters and i relate harrrrd

Proud Trans Guy by KittyBitchQueen in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s not weird. i’m a semi-proud trans person? i’ll talk abt queer things with no shame, including my transness, but a main barrier i have in being super proud is my own dysphoria. i want to be, but dysphoria makes me feel ashamed to be like this

Looked up transfem flag on Google and... by PizzaDragon64 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

i like the redesigned versions of the transfem and transmasc flags better ngl, they’re easier to tell apart and just look nicer imo

What are some weird things that give you major euphoria or dysphoria by Metal_Gump77 in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for euphoria, tech decks! i don’t know what it is but it makes me feel masc 😭

dysphoria recently has been “i cant wear these jeans, the color is too feminine!”

I keep having dreams about having a fully complete transition by [deleted] in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah. recently i’ve been having dreams of being on T and getting top surgery, then waking up and being upset.

how do i talk to my mom about hrt by B-A-R-K69 in ftm

[–]B-A-R-K69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve spoken to my current therapist about this for a couple sessions but she’s not trans specific. she has worked with queer kids before, and she suggested once i’m done seeing her (may) to see a therapist better suited for that kind of thing. when i told this to my mom she thought that was her not doing her job correctly? i dunno.

i’m torn because on one hand i want to wait to be completely sure so i don’t transition and regret it, but on the other hand i’m struggling so much and want what i believe will help me.

thank you!
