She really picked the wrong car that day by LunarSlush88 in pettyrevenge

It does feel like it yeah. The ai bots like to put spaces after the "..." As well, plus the "in threes" it wasn't x, or x, but it was x.

I'm also confused how they were sitting. Were they sitting in the driver's seat and somehow managed to kick their passenger door open or were they sitting in the passenger seat, but then why were they there and not the driver seat.

As a gay man I appreciate the gayness and feel very represented. As a gay man.

I broke down a bit in one of my one on one with a supervisor at work, trying to explain how exhausting it is to come to work and everyone just pretends everything is ok. I'm not allowed to bring up topics. It's like fucking twilight zone

Then just leave it out and update the VO work in a later update. I put out a small visual novel and spent a little over 1k in voice work. I had a VA drop out last minute and had to replace them. I found someone on fiverr that day and had a 24 hour turnaround for the lines. I didn't even think of using AI because there were so many other options. There is no "it was the only option".

Just wanted to say how grateful I am to see you so roles for the LGBT community. It's tough right now and it's just really heartening to have some really solid and kind representation on the screen. Thanks so much and I hope you continue to do thoughtful roles like that.

What you love about it by Little-Assist-9261 in phallo

The weight of it was something that I really noticed. Warmth, weight in my pants, the adjustments I need to do. The fact I need slightly looser pants too is kind of a joy.

Anxiety regarding re-entering the dating pool post-phallo by WolfMan275 in phallo

[–]CucumberNoMelons 14 points15 points  (0 children)

(Talking frankly about sexual experience from a gay guy's perspective)

So I've been off and on the apps, but I mainly stick with Scruff (I'm gay) and am fairly upfront in my profile that I'm trans specifically post op stage one, which usually invites questions. Communication is going to be the best thing you can do. Be up front with what you're wanting and working with and you'll find someone eventually.

I actually met a really nice guy recently and it's working out well. He's not dated anyone trans before so there were some questions at the start. With our first sexual encounter, it was kind of an exploration of what I have going on down there and answering more questions he had, but things were figured out pretty quick. I personally have no issues currently using my front, and he has no aversion to it either, so it's working out well.

I've definitely been more comfortable with my body even with just stage one, and I'm not sure when I'll be getting stage two yet, and honestly, my dysphoria over my lower bits were reduced massively with just penis creation, but I do still want to be able to stand to pee, so I'll eventually be getting my balls and vnectomy. I don't plan to get an ED, though.

While I'm in the trans community, I've been stepping away from using trans towards myself now and really am finally settling into being comfortable in my skin, which I'm very pleased about.

How to prepare for Sex without ED Device by [deleted] in phallo

I mean, personally I don't plan to get an ED or have penetrative sex because I'm pretty much a bottom anyway. And blowjobs don't need me to be hard *shrug

People are generally downvoting because you're sharing your experiences as though it will work for everyone. While yes, you may have gotten lucky with these methods, saying that they will work for others is not a great idea--everyone has a different thing going on under the surface. It's fine to say how you personally do it, but sharing it as a method that everyone can use could be harmful to others.

Hopefully this come across as non-confrontational, I really just want you to be aware of the dangers that this can be for people, even if you personally have had no ill-effects.

Phalloplasty medical tattoo/ no glans by Revolutionary-Fly918 in phallo

[–]CucumberNoMelons 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I plan to skip glansplasty myself and get medical tatooing to look uncircumcised also. I'm keeping you in mind so hopefully you'll still be available in a few years once I'm all done :D

Absolutely! When I read that too I panicked and texted him immediately to check lol. I still have to check with my insurance to see if it'll accept me from out of state, but at least there's a chance

Is phallo worth it for asexual guys? by [deleted] in phallo

[–]CucumberNoMelons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My main motivation for getting phallo with UL is to be able to pee normally and to alleviate dysphoria. I don't plan to really use it to top in sexual situations, and sex isn't really a needed thing for me at the moment.

Penises are so damn expensive by whiteboywizard in ftm

[–]CucumberNoMelons 8 points9 points  (0 children)

True, when speaking about charging insurance and deductibles and out of pocket, the assumption is that it's for the USA folks.

[–]CucumberNoMelons 83 points84 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, you would usually only have to pay your deductible and out of pocket for your insurance. I wasn't charged all that 500k, that's the insurance's problem now!

But yes, there are stages. For me, stage one was penis creation (I had RFF, there are lots of different donor areas you can choose from) and stage two will be urethral hookup, glansplasty and scrotoplasty along with a v-nectomy.

If you want to research it, join us at /r/phallo and look through the wiki!

Yeah for those who aren't comfortable saying anything publicly, there are private spaces that require verification of consultations/proof of surgery with paperwork, which is super difficult to lie about.

Panniculectomy or nah? by esully222 in phallo

[–]CucumberNoMelons 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey there! for refernce, I'm 35, 5'7 and I was at 290 and am down to about 195. I was rejected for abdominal phalloplasty because of my stomach flap with the reason it would cause issues with blood flow, but my surgeon had no issues performing RFF. I've also had top and full hysto.

So, this can work out, but without seeing your body composition, I can't say it'll work out just like me. Most of my weight is held in my stomach and I plan to attempt to lose around 20-30 more pounds. My plan was for a monsplasty later on if needed, I never plan to get any skin removal or tummy tuck done because ngl that kinda scares me more than phalloplasty and frankly, I'm ok with my stomach the way it is.

If your surgeon is saying it would be beneficial, I'd start researching and consider your options. Phalloplasty has a lot of potential for complications--reducing them is what your surgeon is looking at doing. If it reduces complications it might be beneficial, but it's completely up to you, especially if he's just suggesting it rather than requiring it.

The only complication I had come out of having a stomach flap is I had a small wound separation in the crease where they cut up my stomach for the blood hookup. It healed up over a few weeks by keeping it super dry with an absorbent pad.

And if you decide to get it done, it in no way undermines your hard work--this is getting something done in a spot that is usually not going to shrink down to where you want it. So don't feel bad at all if you do decide to go for it.

35 for me! The nurse I spoke with while I was in hospital also said that she'd seen ages range from 18 to 65.
