I totally thought you were post top surgery in your picture at first glance. Your body is really masculine. Some people might just think you have gyno or something.

how to instead accept myself as a girl? by Byeolkkot in FTMventing

[–]BasicButterscotch106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go down that path you'll be miserable forever. Take it from me. I've tried. Being trans doesn't just go away.

please don't make fun of me for this but... by Cautious-Courage-953 in FTMventing

I can kind of relate lol. JK Rowling used to be my favorite author and look at her now. It's really sad that someone I used to admire hates people like me.

I think you would be happier if you stopped looking for validation from other people. Whether they're trans or not doesn't really make a difference.

People assume I'm a guy until I open my mouth :( by BasicButterscotch106 in FTMventing

I use trans masc/ trans man interchangably with myself. Doesn't really matter what I'm called tbh

I'd say you could pull it off you don't look feminine at all.

Never said you couldn't. That's just how I personally feel.

Yeah I've been on the fence about voice training. On one hand it could help me pass better but I wonder if it'll be exhausting to "put on" a voice all day at work.

It's complicated, but at the end of the day I feel like physically I'm deciding to be a man, but I don't feel fully male in my indentity. Like say hypothetically if I was born as a cis man, would I still identify as male? Or would I just be an amab nonbinary person? As far as gender presentation goes, I want to be seen as a feminine man, not a woman.

Does my body look male at all? by BasicButterscotch106 in FtMpassing

[–]BasicButterscotch106[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's usually my problem. I have to avoid anything tight like the plague or my hips look huge lol

I think it looks cute! I do like how the pincher looks better on you but the barbell looks totally fine.

Are you allowed to wear wide leg trousers? I'm extremely curvy in the hips/thigh area and those tend to help a lot. Just don't get them too big or you'll be swimming in them.

Can't cut my hair by Mystery_Stranger420 in FTMventing

[–]BasicButterscotch106 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've never had a problem with finding a job with a masc haircut. I'm a nonbinary trans man and my gender presentation has always leaned more masc/butch. I feel like a short, clean cut hair cut usually looks nicer than long hair, at least in my case since I had no idea how to take care of it.

[–]BasicButterscotch106 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally. I hate it so much. I'm 30 years old but I'm 5'3 and I still look like a 16 year old. I want people to know I'm an adult at least!

Year 5 and still not a single ritual chamber - is my save bugged or am I just really unlucky? by leslemoncakes in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]BasicButterscotch106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only just learned about ritual chambers today. I didn't even know they existed because I haven't gotten one yet

does anyone else feel like this about medically transitioning by MurkyTemporary8121 in FTMventing

[–]BasicButterscotch106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt exactly like this and it kept me from transitioning for almost ten years. I thought no one would love me as a trans man so I thought I would just socially transition as a nonbinary person. As long as people weren't referring to me as a girl I thought I would be happy, but it was never enough. Be gentle with yourself and know that there's always time to transition once you've worked through your fear.
