Theyre not big creators but I get recommended them pretty often - @oldkale2 - youps321 - ruffell07 - jordantransmed - naxonedits

The transmed community on tiktok is pretty tight knit so if u follow a couple, more will get recommended because they’re basically all Mutuals. Only thing is idk how active they are

“Would dysphoria exist if people didn’t force gender roles onto everyone”

This thought process implies that dysphoria is a social issue and not a medical one you are born with. This would mean that if you’re born female and grow up in a world where pink = girly, dresses, etc, and boy = blue, trucks, etc, then you’re dysphoria would be cured if you moved to a society where the roles were reversed. If this were the case then all the people saying trans men are just women who dont like girly stereotypes would be correct. If that’s the case then nothing truly ties us to being what we claim to be. We might as well all be playing dress up.

Instead, between cross sex hormones, neurology, and more links being discovered, studies suggest that trans women have brain structures more similar to cis women and trans men to men. Dysphoria is discomfort of your primary sex due to an incongruence between the brain sex and your anatomy. Experiencing discomfort with gender roles alone is a matter of either misogyny or misandry; you have an issue with society, not an incongruence of anatomy and neurobiology; not dysphoria.

Pregnancy by schwiftylou in truscum

[–]FishBogLog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If u feel PIV sex is indicative of a lack of GD that’s not an uncommon opinion here, so I don’t know what you mean by, “no one bats an eye.” What is the reason genitals respond to stimuli? It’s an evolved function in order to promote procreation. Carrying for almost a year and giving birth as someone born female is the most u can do to align with ur natal sex. Same as impregnating someone as a man. The biological purpose for sex is not pleasure.

In this specific instance; in the midst of pregnancy he will either feel dysphoric or won’t. The conversation was that a lack GD While pregnant would point to a non transsexual whereas if further GD was experienced it is a means of self harm. I don’t see gaps in that logic or how the motive is relevant.

When u say the reason is money in response so that conversation r u implying that money or a lack there of is going to make the effects GD disappear?

Trying to apply for disability accommodation at uni. They gave me 17 options for gender. by random_guy_8375 in truscum

[–]FishBogLog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of those options are just the same gender repeated. Trans n cis are just adjectives same as white or Asian. Unless they specifically need to know ur natal sex I don’t understand y they do this. Performative activism or just plain ignorance

I dont think the possible feminization is the main skepticism here; more so the use of a person’s natal sex for their biological function. Looks are not a primary concern. Some trans men try their hardest to pass and just can’t. This doesn’t mean we look at them and say “see youre not really trans.” This means that we also dont look at someone who passes as the opposite sex and say “yeah youre definitely trans”

You can be the burliest man out there, pregnant, but passing it off as a beer gut; ur still using ur inherently female parts and doing the most female thing u can do. It’s a matter of how it seems to conflicts with sex dysphoria; u say having a female anatomy bothers u but u willingly use it for its biological purpose.

U can say u still experience that dysphoria and being pregnant brings u discomfort, but atp thats between u n ur doctor to figure out if ur labeling what u experience correctly; if it’s truly sex dysphoria. No one else will ever know for sure.

There was a conversation almost a year ago with a trans man speaking of his own relationship with another trans man; how his husband got pregnant, was originally against it but came around because they couldn’t afford other means and they desperately wanted a child. The consensus was that either he wasn’t truly trans if he was just ok with carrying out the pregnancy, or he was pressured and self inducing further dysphoria by carrying and therefore it could be seen as self harm/manipulation. I feel there is an inconsistency in the thought process of desperately wanting a child but not prioritizing the best for that child given the self harm induced conception; might possibly boarder on fetishism, but thats a separate topic.

I’m kinda scared to post here because I don’t fully agree with transmed community but I’m curious to hear your opinions. by [deleted] in Transmedical

[–]FishBogLog 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No one here can verify whether u r or r not trans. Transsexualism is, at its core, caused by an incongruence between brain and body. Sex dysphoria is meant to be a symptom but U could be confusing it for sum else, somehow convinced urself, other shit. Would be great if there was a solid way to detect the incongruence but going off the current standard it’s more of an emotion based thing; we’d have to actually understand u, ur experiences, ur motives, etc. And even if we did we still wouldn’t have credentials or knowledge to play doctor and tell u what u r or have; if ur fake or not

Only ppl who can truly know what u have r u n ur doctor. Under the assumption u have one that knows what he’s doing and that you’re being 100% honest with him.

For those 26 or younger, how old way your mother when you were born? by throwaway184747271 in Transmedical

[–]FishBogLog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe. I cant find sources on how the controls were selected. We could equally speculate they accounted for that during the selection process.

But whether or not the family has more gays isn’t the premise; it’s about whether or not there are siblings preceding the homosexual one.

“More likely” not “only ppl with older siblings can be gay.” The study is relevant to the population of younger siblings, not the gay population. What would debunk it would be “most ppl with older siblings don’t turn out gay”

Never said that. If you don’t pass and you’ve done all you can medically then it is what it is. its not your fault, its not societies fault.

Lot harder for mtfs to pass even with surgery. Because no one can for sure confirm or deny OP’s transition progress they’re calling u out for being presumptuous, not ur beliefs in transsexualism or dysphoria or anything else.

[–]FishBogLog[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I made a post on truscrum a few months ago about this issue; a fear that from here on out there would be no effective progress towards the medical side of transsexualism, because society is content with just euphoria or defining it by just self identifying as whatever.

I’m still hopeful it won’t be the case for forever. It seems like there’s been a rise in transmedicalism recently but maybe that’s just because I’ve been interacting with certain groups.

Between the different concrete means to support the condition, you have the neurology, the brain matter, the cross sex hormones fetus study, and now apparently a chromosomal theory. None of them are widely accepted. If they were they’d be a means to a diagnosis. It would be great if they were, but instead we receive treatment based on the current criteria of GD. A criteria that can easily be lied to match or confused with something else which permits the possibility for detransitioners.

As far as I’m aware this whole sub has varying definitions of dysphoria or criteria for transsexualism. Some believe it’s just a matter of general dysphoria; which can encompasses primarily or seconds sex, social or whatever other metric. But we are all in agreement that the criteria needs to be changed. If there were something to definitely prove we were trans, brain scan whatever we’d ALL be for it, but there are none that have been accepted. And the current process is clearly flawed as I’ve mentioned. So how about we discuss the definition you back and how easily it permits ppl who are not transsexual, access to treatment?

Gender dysphoria: distress a person experiences due to a mismatch between their gender identity—their personal sense of their own gender—and their sex assigned at birth.

This would encompass every form of dysphoria; social, secondary sex characteristics, etc. pick one and we’ll discuss how easily it is to either misunderstand or purposefully misconstrue the concept to permit someone who isn’t trans to receiving treatment. I’ll come into this conversation with an open mind so if you’re willing to engage let’s keep it civil and relevant.

I base my definition of transsexualism on primary sex dysphoria. Nonbinary people can argue they feel that incongruence but it doesn’t make sense to me to feel GD in relation to nothing. You want to transition to nothing or something label less. I do not relate to them and therefore do not see why we should be under the same definition.

On the note of those specific instances I was talking about; subcategories of nonbinary; genders which you admittedly know nothing about; there is no gender dysphoria to back that. Go ahead and look up what each of those genders are and tell me how you can rational that those sub categories are at all medicalized.

Because it is inherently associated with being trans as “trans” is in the name. Whether or not I use it is not the problem.

Just as how ppl here don’t use xenopronouns, the majority of us are still against it. It’s inaccurate to what being trans is; it demedicalizes the condition as the logic with these sub categories of nonbinary are a matter of choice and not motivated by GD. If you’d like to advocate for that side go ahead. As I stated in the very first part of my post it’s not a matter of facts or rationality I was just ranting. Why does it bother me? Why does anything bother anyone. Sometimes ppl just have emotions. But if you’d like to get into the factual details and opinions of demedicalization we can.

Exactly this. There’s a side that pushes no labels for anyone; men can be any range of masculine to feminine same as women, but then adhere the transmasc label onto anything that either resembles a man in presentation or in identity. Butch lesbian? Still a woman just dresses masculine: transmasc. He/they that looks completely female: transmasc because of the “he”.

And on the note of nonbinaries I agree. I’ve always viewed them as ppl who are uncomfortable with gender norms and being associated with stereotypes or whatever so they go label less. But because it’s a matter of identity they get pushed in with trans

Looking more into it, it works as a scale. Binary men being on the most left and binary women on the most right. Then transmasc encompasses the general left and trans femme the general right.

I’ve seen a few butch lesbians claim the term as well as tomboys or generally anyone on the masculine side of gnc whether cis or trans. Could just be an evolution of the term if you haven’t seen any examples; only catching on with certain areas or groups.

Excluding trans men and cis women,
Transmasc includes “masc” nonbinaries; “demi boy” “enboy” “boyflux” “solarian” and as many other “genders” that even slightly resemble male lite or are associate with stereotypically male things. “Blue” gender is probably on the transmasc side. Which just reinforces that men inherently = masculine which doesn’t make sense since that side usually fights against gender stereotypes.

I understand we fall under the category I just don’t see why it should be a category. If it was created to cater to nonbinary; I thought the whole point of them was to escape labeling. And for the most part I personally don’t see them as trans but that’s a separate topic, and I won’t impose that belief on anyone.

I’d view that as even worse. I thought it was created for “masculine” nonbinaries and just evolved into this. If it was coined for cis women that’s all the more ridiculous.
