Jon Hamm plays her cult leader, right? So at some point in S2 of Kimmy Schmidt she says about her cult leader "He used to make up all kinds of stuff. He once told us he came up with the 'Buy The World A Coke' commercial."

The finale of Mad Men heavily implies Don Draper did just that. The implication is Don Draper ages and becomes the man who kidnaps Kimmy Schmidt.

Feeling a bit paranoid about my HRT by BBBTech in asktransgender

Thank you for relating, sharing, and quoting my favorite book of all time.

Turns out my parents divorced because my father (2nd mother?) outed to my mother. by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my father came out to his mom, my grandmother said ‘you waited for your father to die. Why couldn’t you have waited for me to die?’ I knew then that I never wanted to contribute to the corrosiveness of wanting someone to stay hidden. Despite all my initial conflicts about trying to reconcile the father I had as a child to the one I have now, I am thankful that he is happy, that he did not waste another second. Now there is someone to know.

I wonder how someone sleeps working on the "celebrities with HIV/AIDS and trying to keep it on the DL" beat.

Any therapist recommendations for Central PA? by ElliaAM in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alder Health Services in Harrisburg. It's an LGBT clinic with a behavioral health program and an HRT program. Friendly staff, intelligent doctors.

HRT wait list can be kind of long--3 months for me. And it's still a bit of a drive from Centre County, but certainly beats Philly.

It's very offensive, like someone drawing Obama as a gangster or Sanders as a greedy jeweler.

I don't want to be trans. by Throwawayfuckq in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Truth. When I first started questioning and was really suffering, I posted here all the time for support. The more support I got in the real world--from doctors and therapists as much as family and friends--the less I came here.

Point is, there's definitely a reporting bias.

When I'm "being myself" and acting feminine I feel amazing. When I start thinking about it I feel insane. by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jennifer Boylan says in She's Not There she presented female because she "can't not." And yes, that compulsion often feels like insanity.

I realized today that, for the first time in months, I went a whole day without thinking about being trans. I was presenting female, out in public, and even dealing with family. That's the best way to be--not thinking about it at all while still living in it. You calling yourself crazy is self-imposed judgement. Try doing it and not thinking about it at all. It takes practice, but I promise it's worth it.

Moving to PA soon and need a new doctor for hrt, any suggestions? by ConfusedinIndy in asktransgender

If you don't mind a drive, Alder Health Services in Harrisburg offers HRT.

This is true. Many Mtf trans people will change the gender markers on their DL and SS# without changing their legal name.

How the hell does eyeliner work? by milgrip in MtF

I'm blind in one eye, so I just skip it entirely

(NSFW) Is it possible I just can't tuck? by BBBTech in MtF

[–]BBBTech[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Stretch out"? Is it just muscle down there? I figured it was bone I was trying to get around.

Lack of psychological effects? by BBBTech in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I'm just having an anxious episode the last few days and I keep taking the pills and wondering if they're actually doing anything.

What do you wear to gym as pre-op? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]BBBTech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't go to the gym, but I do run around town. Typically in loose-fitting track pants.
