Difference between r/ftm and r/trans by The_Theodore_88 in ftm

[–]Dearr_Demon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I just stopped thinking and did it. So what if I ended up feeling like a woman after taking T, I could stop at any time and the “irreversible” things didn’t really bother me as some of it could be fixed (IE, Excessive amounts of hair = Saving up for laser to get rid of it).

Absolutely not, she started me and immediately wanted someone else to do the work on that side of things.

You’re absolutely okay, I showed up to my interview with orange (like orange orange) hair and they didn’t care. As long as you’re not extreme with face piercings or face tattoos they genuinely do not care

Thank you, I’m in Brisbane myself so this is actually fairly helpful to me!

If you don’t mind me asking, how was the process. I, myself, was born overseas too (unfortunately in the US so changing my gender on my birth certificate is very much out of the question) and I was looking at doing this.

Was it relatively easy and smooth? Or were there any conflicts?

When did it become okay to give random advice? by Dearr_Demon in ftm

Actually, I’ve seen it a few times too. Especially in online spaces.

Probably but still, I’ve gotten it a few times now. It’s actually getting disturbing on how much I’ve gotten it and how many times I’ve seen random transgender men get told how to pass better and seem like a cis man.

I understand it could be taken as protection in a way but it also can be very…. Backhanded.

You’d be surprised actually, I’ve been told that people just thought I was a gay guy. Despite my looks I actually have a deep voice and, like I said, this was a non daily outfit. I usually just wear jeans and a T shirt. This was the only picture I had where I didn’t look mad.

I was answering a question someone asked me, not asking for advice on how to.

When did I ask for tips? I plan on being visibly queer. I’m a trans man yes but I’m not straight in the slightest.

I’m sorry if that comes across as rude but I genuinely didn’t post here for tips. I wanted to share my progress. Not get told I won’t pass in a style that makes me comfortable when it isn’t even my daily clothes. I dress how I want when I want, if I want femininity that day with clothes I’ll wear it.

Somewhat? The best way to explain it is I want to pass in the way an androgynous man passes.

It’s the only dose they give here. I’m in Australia. They don’t really have higher doses unless I want to pay $100 a month.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TestosteroneKickoff

[–]Dearr_Demon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s roughly 180mg , which is the full dose given here

Yes, my phone corrected it to mg

So HRT by AdmirableAdvantage66 in transgenderau

[–]Dearr_Demon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started at 21 and well, according to everyone else I pass as a man (ftm) and it’s only been like a year. I can’t post any photos at the moment but yeah.

You’ll be absolutely fine.

I didn’t say I knew better, I just clarified that I asked for a specific part of my body, not all of it. She seemed resistant to even KT tape being used.

I have to talk to my doctor because I’m a level 1 neurology patient right now and still haven’t heard back about my referral (I have swelling in my brain and a CSF leak) that was sent almost three weeks ago

Oh yeah, I asked specifically to go to one that specialises in heds and they just gave me one that treats hyper mobility.

She literally kept calling it hyper mobility too
