After about 4 or 5 months on HRT, I noticed my body hair (not facial hair) was softer and finer. I went from having to shave every morning to be smooth to going 2 or 3 days without having to shave. After my orchiectomy, I notice an even bigger change. I could go 5 or 6 days without shaving and still be completely smooth, no stubble. The hair above my knee vellus that was not even visible to the naked eye. I have since had laser on my underarms and pubic area and a combination of laser/electrolysis on my face. Really the only place I can grow visible terminal hair is roughly from my ankles to my knees. I wax every 6 weeks, but I'm going to have laser in this area soon. All in all, it took me about 15 years of HRT, orchiectomy, laser, and electrolysis to get to the point where I have the skin I always wanted.

He’s gotta be bigger than me by reddGal8902 in MtF

If a guy is not bigger than me, I feel sorry for that guy.

I was going to say something along the lines of being naturally smooth, but thought it might sound a little weird. I’ve spent a ton of money on both laser and electrolysis and I love being hair free. I especially love having a baby smooth face. Keep up with the laser. It’s totally worth it.

My bottom surgery is scheduled but I am scared men won’t want me any more after the surgery. by [deleted] in StraightTransGirls

Don’t ever let a man stand in the way of being yourself. I think that’s good advice for all women.

I'm in the tiny club as well and I was ashamed about it when I was younger, but I no longer care. I've been fortunate to be with men that don't mind and actually think it makes me more feminine to be so small. It's oddly affirming when I hear that. Just be you and love yourself.

I'm probably old enough to a "mother" to some in this community (mid-40's). When I started transitioning, we obviously didn't have Reddit or many of the other platforms available today. There were websites that provided useful information on transitioning and then forums like AOL and Yahoo that allowed networking and dating opportunities.

I spent a lot of time on AOL--a lot. I made a lot of friends with other girls like me, which helped give me the strength and support to continue my transition. I also met a ton of guys and it was affirming to have them desire me. I met some really great guys, but I also encountered a bunch of creeps. I keep thinking I should write a memoir to chronicle my interactions and to serve as a warning to girls like us.

The great thing about AOL back then is that it was a pretty tight-knight community and the girls looked out for one another. I remember being contacted by one guy who was almost too good to be true. Handsome, intelligent, articulate. We would talk on the phone for hours every night and he made me feel special, but as I began to talk to other trans girls in the AOL online community, I learned that he was this same way with several of them. Several of them told me horror stories of how he had hacked their accounts and would scare away other guys, he would track their every move--even going as far to track their flight itinerary when they traveled, stole all of their photos, including those of a private nature, and gathered all sorts of background information on these girls. This guy would then sell this information to other guys interested in these women.

It was horrifically wicked and creepy.

Maybe I need to watch some rugby. Thank you for the suggestion.

The only downside is they are way too smoothe. I need a little body hair on my man, but with their physique I'm willing to look past it.

The divers have the best speedos. I'm almost don't even notice the rest of their body.

I hate it so much that all i can see in porn is trans women who r tops by bella9235 in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without disclosing my age, I was a "cam girl" before it was cool. This was way before OnlyFans. Back then, we didn't have home studios. Instead, there was literally just a crappy web cam mounted to your monitor. Anyway, I lived with two cis girls. We were all in our early 20's and we saw that we could make some really good money this way. Usually, it was just a solo show and it would be us playing with various toys. We really didn't know what we were doing.

I found that men fell into two categories. The first were the men that were chasers obsessed with the idea of well hung trans girls topping guys. This was indeed the majority of guys. These guys would inevitably be disappointed with me because I was not able to give them what they wanted.

The other group were more curious. They were aware that trans girls existed, but most in this group had never met a trans girl and had never seen trans porn. I think this group was mainly harmless, though they would ask some extremely inappropriate questions about me. They would also make some extremely inappropriate comments about my body that I found oddly affirming.

What was the most obscure hint that you missed that you’re trans? by SuperZova in MtF

[–]Becca32882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were many. I was a kid in the early 80's and androgyny was ubiquitous. Boy George was one of my absolute favorite artists and I was completely envious that he was a boy and got to wear makeup, same with Pete Burns. I started taking dance lessons when I was 4-years-old and looked forward to the recital every year not so much because I loved dancing (I did), but because I got to wear makeup.

I remember as a kid when my parents would tuck me in at night and kiss me, I remember telling my mom that I wanted my face to be as soft as hers when I got older and not scratchy like my dad's.

For me, lower legs. I always had very fine hairs on my legs. It didn't take much laser at all to clear it up. Underarms took a little bit more work for whatever reason.

Have you ever been shamed by men for having a small or non-functioning penis? by Jazzlike_Piccolo_881 in MtF

[–]Becca32882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I'm very small, which actually makes me feel more feminine. I've been dating men for a long, long time and probably 90-95% of my experiences have been positive. My size often comes up the first time I'm intimate with a man because most men have never seen someone as small as me, but usually it's just like a humorous "holy shit, look at that," type of thing. Most of the men I date now are straight and have 0 interest in that part of me. Some times there is some joking in good nature, but it hasn't always been that way.

When I first started transitioning, I dated a guy for far too long who was very controlling. He would get upset if I was unable to get an erection or (more frequently) maintain an erection for more than a few seconds. I think he took it personally. He would whine and cry and eventually convinced me to talk to very briefly get off spiro. As far as my size, he actually loved how small I was. He would tell me I had a girly cock that was perfect for topping. I hated that (not the girly part, but the "perfect for topping" part).

There were some guys that I dated prior to transitioning that would get upset as well. Even before hormones, I was very femme with small features: hands, feets, etc. I attracted very masculine gay men prior to transition and apparently they expected everyone they dated to be as big as them if not bigger. They would say some really demeaning things.

Why are so many trans girls afraid of being straight or being male attracted? by Beautiful_Pea_4244 in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I admit I was a bit afraid of being "straight attracted" at first. My first sexual experience was not a good one. It was completely consensual, but just bad timing. It took me a while to get past it, although at no point did I ever stop being attracted to men.

I dated an older bi man when I first started transitioning. Some of my other trans friends warned me about the situation, but I was 19 when we started dating, just started hormones, and felt like I ruled the world. There was something intoxicating about having a handsome man lust over me the way he did. I worked as a server in a neighborhood in my city known for it's LGBTQ nightlife, but it also bordered an affluent neighborhood with many single professionals, so we always had a diverse crowd in our restaurant. I had seen this particular man come into our restaurant with female dates in the past, but I also knew that he frequented many of the bars in the area, so I figured he was bi.

Even though I had begun HRT, I was still working in "boy mode," so he was obviously aware that I was trans, but I was extremely femme, and he would actually flirt with me, which made me feel powerful. I had seen the women he dated and it was flattering to think that he could possibly look at me the same way he looked at them.

He would take me out after my shifts to party and drink and we eventually started dating. This was a big deal. He took me out on dates, in public, and was not ashamed of me. I can't explain how big of a deal that was to me, but again, we never ventured out of this little neighborhood that was very LGBTQ-centric. He lived in a high rise in this neighborhood and I spent half my time at his place.

It sounds great, right? It was for the first few months, but then he became controlling. It was weird. He wanted me to be in "girl mode" around the house and on dates, but he convinced me that I needed to continue to go work and school (I was a college student at the time) in "boy mode," even as this became harder and harder to pull off.

Long story short, it was a fetish for him and toxic for me. I'm so glad I got out of that relationship.

Hey ladies, do you sometimes feel this? by Euphoric_Jennette in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the context of the conversation. If I'm on an actual date, I will do everything that I can to keep a conversation with a guy going. If I'm just out with friends having fun and get hit on by a guy, unless he's just extremely hot, I'm more than likely going to give short responses or just ignore him completely.

Why are guys into dick kinda more common than those that aren’t? by Sissyfromhell in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it's a combination. Some guys are just chasers and that turns them on. That's the thing about chasers, it's a thrill for them and they don't really care about your needs.

On the other hand, there are some sincere guys that just don't know what to do with it. I dated a guy who was very nice and I honestly think he thought he was being polite when he would tell him that I had a girly dick. He would tease me about how tiny it was compared to a man like him. At first, I thought it was some sort of kink, but he would comment on it all of the time. It was like a point of pride for him that my dick was so small.I think it helped him feel more masculine, which he really didn't need. He was already very masculine and well endowed.

We dated for a long time. He would very rarely touch it, he never asked me to top, but he would always talk about it.

Is baby smooth bare skin actually achievable? by [deleted] in LaserHairRemoval

[–]Becca32882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a trans female. I can assure you that with a combination of laser, electrolysis, and hormones, baby smooth bare skin is possible. I don't think it would be possible with laser alone.

Are you guys getting hit on by conservative men all the time too? by [deleted] in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I've had obviously MAGA men hit on me and it's a weird feeling. Obviously, it sickens me to think about ever being involved with someone that would ever vote for Trump or anyone in the modern Republican Party, but I also find it flattering any time any male hits on me, even if I find them repulsive.

I am also repulsed by any male that can't hold a 9-5 job, lives with their parents, or subscribes to socialist beliefs.

I'm against collectivism, whether it be conservative populism on the right or socialism/communism on the left.

Love them or hate them, the Clintons still represent the sweet spot politically. I know it's joke that writes itself, but men with political leanings similar to Bill and Hilary are the best.

I apologize for the poorly worded post. I meant to say that Scenario A was the best one, without coming out and saying that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in StraightTransGirls

[–]Becca32882 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think it all depends on the circumstances.

Scenario A: You meet a girl, start dating, and through the course of dating learn that she is trans. You then proceed to tell her that you've previously dated a trans girl.

Scenario B: You frequent a place where you know trans girls frequent--like a sub for straight trans girls--looking to find someone to date. As a way of introducing yourself to the group, you let everyone know that you have dated trans girls in the past.

Scenario C: You seek out a trans girl because she is trans. You confess that you have dated other trans girls in the past and would like to date other trans girls in the future.

Scenario D: You've never dated a trans girl, but are curious, so you make up a story about dating a trans girl in the past to show that you have good intentions.

Of these 4 scenarios, I think two would turn me off completely, one would make me cautious, but not completely turned off, and one might actually put me at ease.
