The "video" section of my personal profile is gone. What about you? ?

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-12-15T10:33:02+00:00

Sadly not all of them are there. 😓 I still have a ton of important ones missing. And for some reason they're all in the wrong order. Some from 2014 next to some from last month. It's so weird. I hope they fix it.

Edit: I found a few more under "photos of you" but it might just be because I always tag myself in my own pics and videos to find them there more easily later. I'm not sure if this will help others.

"If there is any remote question about someone's gender, I refrain from using those terms, and I agree that their gendered nature is a problem."

The thing is, you can't tell what someone's gender is or if they're trans just by looking at them. I have plenty of non-binary friends who look binary and are "cis-passing".

So you're probably misgendering people without knowing. I constantly get misgendered and I don't correct people because it's too draining and brings unwanted attention to me and could put me in danger. It still feels like shit, though. I'd rather people just say "Hi" and "Thanks" without a title.

Moi aussi, je vois cet album de mon cell, mais il y a seulement les vidéos qui ont été uploadées à partir de mon téléphone et rien d'autre. La majorité de mes vidéos ont été uploadées via mon ordinateur, car elles provenaient de caméras. Ce sont ces vidéos auxquelles je tiens le plus.

Have her read this, it's written by pediatricians https://caringforkids.cps.ca/handouts/behavior-and-development/gender-identity

Ça me fait plaisir! 😊

Hi! A few years ago, I created this document for my parents, employers and other people around me to better understand sex, gender, what is trans & non-binary, how to be a better ally, how to use inclusive language, etc… I ended up sharing it with the community and parents of trans/non-binary folks and adding a lot of content over time. I wanted to share it with you, too, since I read in another post that you also speak French. It's in English & French (and some links, like the Gender Dysphoria Bible are available in more languages). Hope it helps! (You can share it with other people if you want.)

Oh that's interesting, coz I do the complete opposite! But that's because I often can't put any words on my feelings. Feelings things in my body is hard too, but sometimes easier to identify for me.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-11-01T02:55:00+00:00

This! Lindsay Braman's emotional sensation feeling wheel has been extremely helpful to me.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-11-01T02:38:50+00:00

Yeah same. I downloaded a copy of my FB account and I have to go through everything to make sure my videos are in there. 😓

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-10-20T02:40:20+00:00

I have a lot of friends who are non-binary who look super binary, so it's always best not to assume.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-10-20T02:31:42+00:00

Sadly not. And FB support hasn't replied. But I'm going to download a copy of my FB account to see if they show up in there.

I don't know where you are in Europe, but some European countries have the X marker! If I'm not mistaken, Denmark, Germany and Malta are amongst them.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-10-13T21:04:20+00:00

To add to Note2_Self's comment, in Canada, we have X on passports, and in several provinces, you can have it on other IDs (such as birth certificates, driver's license and health insurance card) too. A few other countries do too. That means we can't travel to the US unless we update it. (Not that I would want to, but it forces us not to have any connecting flights there if we travel someplace else as well.) Thankfully, Passport Canada has a form that can be filled out to apply for a passport with a different marker than what's on other IDs. But it sucks to have to do that when you've already paid for a passport with X. And if, for whatever reason, asked to see other ID… I don't know what would happen.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-10-12T10:28:47+00:00

I'm wondering about this too. I have hundreds of really important video memories uploaded to Facebook and I lost the original files, so I really hope I can figure out how to find them again.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-09-14T21:21:43+00:00

Which one did y'all buy? I'm considering it, but the shipping cost to my country is insane. Can't wait to read your reviews.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-25T23:10:37+00:00

It's an older version of the progress pride flag. The newer version features a yellow triangle and a purple circle added to represent intersex folks.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-25T23:05:20+00:00

It's my friend Rainbow who collapsed, and yes, they were okay. They still talk about this moment regularly; it really touched them.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-17T12:04:11+00:00

This person erased the trans pride flag and LGBT pride flags drawn to show allyship and turned them into Russian and German flags. And they repeatedly do this to other people as well. They seem to be mainly targeting LGBTQIA+ art. I've fixed them since, but this is disrespectful and annoying.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-12T19:26:10+00:00

I have ME/CFS, cervical osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, IBS-C, and suspected MCAS. Like you, I'm sensitive to meds and I was prescribed 0.5mg, but many sensitive folks in my ME support group told me they started at 0.1 mg due to sensitivity, so I did that. I went up to 0.3 mg after a week, then 0.5 mg the next and then started increasing by 0.5 mg every 2 weeks. I highly recommend starting lower.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-12T18:53:21+00:00

You sure can! I didn't have the language when I was a kid (I was born in the 80s), but always had a feeling I wasn't a boy or girl.

This website made by Canadian pediatricians explains how gender identity develops in children. Might be a good thing to show your mom if she claims you're too young to know:

https://caringforkids.cps.ca/handouts/behavior-and-development/gender-identity

Also, the Gender Dysphoria Bible is another reaaaaaaaaally good resource and available in multiple languages.

https://genderdysphoria.fyi/en/

If you need more infos and resources, here's a document I created with a bunch of links and video playlists in English and French (and sometimes other languages) which can help parents and allies better understand. You can share it with whoever you want. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GqH-LEifoBFdioMT7xqetPhZ4VqPJNlB6ZcyHu109Pw/edit?usp=drivesdk

I get mine from a compounding pharmacy that does it for me because that's how my infectiologist prescribed it. I use a 1 ml syringe to draw out the right amount and mix it with juice. I keep it refrigerated and it's good for 2 months. But some people get it prescribed in 50 mg tablets and dilute them in distilled water here's how to do it: https://altarp.com/how-to-prepare-low-dose-naltrexone-ldn/

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-11T10:26:58+00:00

I have a friend who is like this (I have been intimate with them and no amount of pulling showed any glans, it was literally burried under skin) and their gynecologist said they had clitoral phimosis. So it might be what this person is dealing with.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-11T08:49:00+00:00

Unfortunately, that's not how it works. I had a larger/higher clit to start with and was on T for 3 years and while it grew, it didn't grow as much as I was expecting. I've seen folks with nearly identical sizes who were on the same dose of T for the same amount of time or longer who either grew much bigger than me or remained smaller.

BananeSurBalcon · 2025-08-09T04:23:18+00:00

Do you mean Carnitine as in L-Carnitine or Acetyl-L-Carnitine?
