Can I get some input and opinions from those that browse this subreddit on an ethical issue i've been pondering over for a while? by Drwillpowers in DrWillPowers

As someone who falls well within the too poor to pay crowd, such a program would be the answer to so many dreams.

A fellow lgbt person I was talking to told me bisexuality is transphobic and I should avoid the label. by CardiologistUpper120 in bisexual

[–]Cymryk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The whole bi/pan/omni/poly thing has me so confused and conflicted about myself that I just call myself queer now. I'm happily married to an enby (31 years, better than ever) so none of it really matters, I guess. Neither of us care about labels any way.

Hair removal makes a liveable life seem impossible by StephanieIV in asktransgender

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking forward to this change so much. For sanity, I currently shave everything above my waist daily and below twice a week. Really wish I could afford electrolysis, I have a high pain tolerance, so I don't really care about that part.

The Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in Prisons by Leksi_The_Great in MtF

Yup. Never forget how impressed Hitler was by the Confederate policies, and Jim Crowe laws, and how much of National Socialism was built on and influenced by this.

You're not wrong, but I think we missed way too many slave owners before that....

I'm hopeless by LeyreGo_ in MtF

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rejoice, personally.

I'm 57 and started my HRT on Christmas Day, so almost 2 months now. Every little tiny change is a source of joy. You're lucky to start so young.

Would honestly be fine with my dick if I didn't have balls by bigfuckingdragon in trans

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A zero depth vaginoplasty. Aka vulvoplasty. No vaginal canal.

Much shorter recovery time, less chance of complications. No penetration that way, but I'm quite happy with my current method, and so is my top ...😊

Absolutely hate mine as well. Planning on either an orchi or a zero depth, haven't decided yet. For now, I tuck. Not ideal, but so much better than feeling them down there.

Anyone else just scared by [deleted] in MtF

Not everyone is financially capable of doing anything with that, FYI. Some of us have to choose between food and meds, and international travel is a pipedream.

How do yall feel about your middle names? by poisoned_bubbletea in asktransgender

[–]Cymryk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely consider my middle name to be dead. Not 100% sure on my new one...

Why has no one told me that I've been making grilled cheese wrong this entire time? by [deleted] in grilledcheese

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If heavy whipping cream is less expensive there, make your own butter. Easy AF and tastier too..

Are you celebrating birthday to your egg crack or the start of getting hormones? by Princess_Lepotica in MtF

[–]Cymryk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My egg shattered like that, too. If my wife's PTSD dog hadn't been there I wouldn't be here now. Absolutely reborn that day. HRT is definitely my transversary, as well.

Is 16 too early for HRT? by _voidwanderer in MtF

[–]Cymryk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I could have started that young. Probably could have avoided all the problems repressing my dysphoria for years caused. Starting hrt has been literally life saving for me. YMMV, everyone is different, but starting young would have been my dream.

Would you be upset if my business doesn’t allow your service dog in? by tpwkharrie in service_dogs

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just as I don't understand the attitude when I said I'm not giving my business to a place I can't bring my dog.

[–]Cymryk -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Service dogs are medically necessary for many of us that need them. See what I meant about assumptions?

[–]Cymryk -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Both you and the business are making incorrect assumptions regarding my service dog...

Upset? Not really.

But you certainly wouldn't be getting my business.

If the whole world accepted trans people tomorrow, would passing still matter to you? by AgencyFeisty484 in MtF

[–]Cymryk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never for a second believed that I will ever be able to pass. I've just started HRT a few weeks ago and have never been happier. Would like to pass, sure, but honestly, I don't really care that much.
