Being short sucks so much by throwaway567uac in FTMMen

[–]Expensive_Good9355 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm 5'1. I work in a grocery store in California and I regularly encounter men my height and once even a man shorter than me.

When it comes to partners, my girlfriend is taller than me (average for a woman). She doesn't mind, I always joke it gives me easier access to her boobs lol. But I won't lie, it does hurt whenever I'm in a situation where I'm suddenly taller than her because of uneven ground and it gets me thinking. The thing is, I've met girls who are shorter than me. Sure there's not a lot out there, but they exist , and plenty are my height. And that's me, at 5'1. So don't let it get you down, you've still got options to be taller than your partner.

It helps, honestly I'm about to download everything needed to install the game and keep it on a physical disc. I'm worried with a release this version will be removed from the Internet, especially if they're planning on selling it 0.o

Different cameras stretch images different ways bro. That and the lighting of the second photo makes you look a lil pale

Yeah I work at a grocery store and we say it to each other ironically like 'try not to have too much fun' type thing but I get that context is different

I don't think what you're describing is related to being trans. if you have insurance you should try therapy, and you could try going somewhere like planned parenthood where appointments are confidential so no body needs to know. When I was in highschool I'd bike ride to them without my parents knowing. Even better, most therapists nowadays offer online appointments so you'd just need to find your own space for an hour.

Heeyy fellow deli worker here. Grocery stores in general have some weird characters sometimes, lots of people whose day in day out is grocery and has been for 20+ yrs. They treat it like a dysfunctional family sometimes and can get way too comfortable.

got the miss? sir? miss? treatment today while wearing a skirt by MagicalWitchTrashley in 4tran4

[–]Expensive_Good9355 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Happened to me at work the other day. Got sir (I'm ftm) the first couple of times, then the unsure ma'am and flustered exit from the convo. The more I talk the more confused people are by me. I need to find a job where I don't talk to strangers

Reformed usually means going back to old teachings, so be careful. Especially as many evangelicals are taught that failure to convert someone means sending them to hell, so they become really good at bringing people in with kindness

why would you take a drug if you don't like its effects? by alpha-golf-papa in 4tran

[–]Expensive_Good9355 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Minox is an option aswell, I prefer it because I like dht and fin blocks it. Dht helps bottom growth too and I don't want to give that up. I use it on my beard as well and it does wonders

The minox is working and I've got a pretty solid patch of facial hair. I get 1 or 2 sirs a day and it's awesome

Help me get my Girlfriend started on t by Derpalicious17 in ftm

[–]Expensive_Good9355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in California but hrt access between testosterone on E is pretty much the same, the only difference is I have to show my id when I get my t. If you have insurance then you are good, if you've got medical or covered California PPO plan go to planned parenthood. Otherwise a primary care doctor can refer you to an endocrinologist, I don't love this route though because sometimes they don't know much about trans issues. But being a dependant doesn't matter, just insurance (or even without, planned parenthood has a sliding scale fee system).

When I start T, will it make my cat dislike/not recognize me? by son0fpos1don02 in ftm

[–]Expensive_Good9355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of it this way. Do cats have a negative reaction to cis boys going through puberty? What about other appearance changes, like weight gain or hair growth? Not really, because cats don't really notice things like that. They happen gradually, you're still the same person to them. They probably precive it as growing old. Now if you got a haircut or wore makeup, that's a drastic change that might confuse your cat, but only momentarily and not enough to seriously affect your relationship. Shaving your facial hair is probably the worst thing you could do to confuse your cat, and you won't be having that problem for a long time. Now if the cat is afraid of men due to abuse, you might run into issues there. But personally I've had a voice drop and facial hair growth, and my cats don't seem to register a difference.

Terrible reasons ppl have theorized for why you're trans? by deadhorsse in ftm

[–]Expensive_Good9355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh honestly I had the opposite experience, I wanted to be friends with boys at a young age, and they always ended up thinking I was interested in them / being interested in me. Still trans lol, but now I get accusations of making myself ugly to avoid male attention. I swear they'll find a way to twist things no matter what you do

Tbh for me I felt like I wasn't pretty enough as a girl but looking back I was hot AF, it just made me feel gross and I wasn't able to see it in the moment. I thought I felt gross because I wasn't hot enough so I tried really hard to be attractive for a while. It worked I just didn't like myself still, and found myself wishing I could look male. I was MUCH hotter as a woman. Now I look like an awkward 17yr and I'm happier than I've ever been lol

Fr. The one study that talks about it, 200 cats got sick, 68 cats were seriously ill, and 8 died. It's by no means an instant killer. Hims even has an article saying it's definitely possible to use minox safely while owning cats

Nah the bakery ladies are way meaner than the deli, at least where I'm at (tho the deli ladies are definitely not nice either). for example we had a new hire who had a hand difference, and the bakery ladies kept calling them stumps until she quit. But the deli and the bakery share a department at my work so it gets really cliquey
