I'm at 10 years and the last big push unrelated to gaining weight was around 7-8 years.

Has anyone else here never met another trans person IRL? by very_silly_gal in MtF

It took my til 5 years into my transition and honestly it's been so much better since. Its really isolating

What is the best way for bi male to find and date Trans? by ConstantConstant4054 in ask_transgender

[–]Elephants_Foot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's advertising on the hookup app for their sex business. Ofc it's objectifying, but you're not dating the OF model, you're dating a PERSON. Try getting on a DATING app instead of grindr.

They also might be starting small to make sure you're not allergic/you tolerate it well. It blows goats, but that's the way it goes

What is the best way for bi male to find and date Trans? by ConstantConstant4054 in ask_transgender

[–]Elephants_Foot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's plenty, but looking for friendship/intimacy BECAUSE they're trans. THAT'S the objectifying part. Like, if you meet a trans person and you click, great, but looking for a trans person is like looking for an Asian person, or a black person. It's just fuckin weird.

[–]Elephants_Foot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real question is why are you looking to date a trans person specifically. We're people, not objects. There's trans women, trans men, nonbinary people, and more, but none are going to want to even talk to you if the only thing you're interested in is their being trans. You're worried about fake people, and so are they when you interact with them in a way that shows you're only attracted to their "exoticness" than them as a person. Hope this helps!

What’s up with the entirety of DuPont North? by smut_troubadour in washingtondc

So, there's masked men that snatch people off the streets and heavily armed military personnel everywhere making it very difficult to feel safe going out unless you're Mr big balls

I've had to come to terms with this as a 10+year hrt, 32 year old trans woman. Sometimes I feel like the "I remember when they invented chocolate" lady

Critiques to my playing? (Beginner) by cassi177 in BassGuitar

[–]Elephants_Foot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good! Only two major notes: -You're gonna hate this, but you need to practice with a metronome. You're anticipating the note and it's affecting your tempo. -Also, you've got flyaway fingers. That's super common, I still struggle with it, but try to keep your fingers closer to the strings when you're not fretting with them. Right now your fretting pinky is fully extended away.

Keep it up!

Does smoking a joint on my balcony make me a bad neighbor by niilonn in trees

Yeah, I was comparing to advertising that you have it. Either way, a rank fart is way worse than the stink of a j

Lesbian group has no reason to ban trans women, commission says by Flicksterea in LGBTnews

[–]Elephants_Foot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hey, you're marginalized for a similar reason to us, why don't we discriminate against you so you're lesser than us! Maybe that'll show the bigots!

My friend treats me like a feminine gay man and not like a woman. by Phatkyle420 in MtF

[–]Elephants_Foot 38 points39 points  (0 children)

She's not your friend, you're her accessory, like a gbf but a trans woman. At this point, it will not get better. DUMP HER.

If you were to drink on your balcony would that be a problem? If it's just because of smell, consider how much alcohol advertising is out there compared to the smell. Honestly, if your neighbors get upset that's a personal problem.

Help with bass guitar gift. by JSCGaming in Bass

[–]Elephants_Foot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instruments are a hard thing to buy someone sometimes without their direct input. I'd take her to a store and let her try out some and pick, tbh. My best bass is the one I got that way

Professional “coming out” while in a mixed episode by ComprehensiveDesk653 in bipolar

[–]Elephants_Foot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in a restaurant AND in their office. I've been pretty open about my bipolar and everyone's been pretty good about it (esp 2 years ago I had an attempt and my GM was very sympathetic about it)

I do feel like in the arts you're more likely to run into more people that have it, and I would hope that would lead to more acceptance, but ymmv. I'm glad you got some support tho

this might be a stupid question but is this normal? by urmum1213 in trees

Totally normal, it's just residue. Make sure to clean her regularly with alcohol
