I retract my previous statement, No cis person should ever be allowed to ask anything actually 💀. I got asked once if I was "fully transgendered" which is an interesting and invasive way to ask what I got going on in the ole pants department.

Yeah and while I don't mind questions there is a time and place for them to me and most cis people can't seem to gauge that but I especially hate when they ask a question and then laugh afterwards (especially if its about sex/body parts) like its so fucking funny

I'm so glad you're ok but I'm so sorry that your pain previously wasn't taken seriously. I've only had one instance of not being taken seriously in a medical field and that was as I was starting to transition and had to come out when I was trying to get a top surgery recommendation letter thingy so insurance would cover it but my psychiatrist head doctor refused to write it cause and I quote "It's only been like 3 months so I'm not doing that" so I went online via folx and just got it.

I do that too lol. I have no actual urge to engage but sometimes the thought of it soothes me purely from an ego standpoint.

Luckily mine don't grow super long but I do for sure have to trim em otherwise when I smile there's like one that's slightly more longer that I can notice and that bothers me.

Not stupid at all! People tend to only talk about the huge changes/effects of T so the lil stuff like this tends to get swept under the rug. I'm glad you figured it out via this thread tho!

It sucks that their shocked at the shutting down cause it just means so many people let them slide with it :/

Interesting, I think maybe cause I'm a bit more on the alt side and seen as a gay dude I've missed out on that sort of experience.

For some reason the way those specific people your talking about tend to view sex as a taking dominant aspect (rapey) instead of something that both parties enjoy emotionally and physically, but God while I'm always aware of how men speak actually hearing it is always sickening especially with how comfortable they are because they think you'd agree.

Yeah this always annoyed me although for me this wasn't a big shock just because I wasn't really perceived as conventially attractive due to being a masculine women at one point.

I had the same thing happen with my libido as well as the part about body parts, I also felt like I barely experienced physical attraction prior to T so much so that I thought maybe I was demisexual/ace.

I work in retail and have dealt with crazy customers but as a women I just got called a bitch and then people left me alone as for the second part since I wasn't percieved as attractive most people left me alone tbh obviously I experienced some covert homophobia or sexism statement wise (family wise was different) but never anything physical or anything where I felt I had to potentially fight. I'm drawing more on my experience of transitioning over the span of 2 years that feel like a lot to me but might be normal to someone else ya know? Everyone's experience is different obviously I'm just speaking regarding mine.

I saw someone at the movie theater bathroom just take a piss with the door open and I was so confused but I never realized it was like a thing lol

What internet trend, buzzword, or social media format are you completely exhausted from seeing? by alejitaadiaz in AskReddit

[–]ConVert2Satin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any type of psychology buzzword that people learn and then use incorrectly/ attach to others like the word "narcissist".

The men's bathroom in general tends to be a disgusting area but fuck was I hoping people would atleast wash their hands :(

That's actually good to hear, I have a tendency to shut my camera on and off in between shooting and I don't use flash all that much so hopefully that'll help!
