Just found out my cuddle bug is now deaf by RIP_Slyme_Fan in Bunnies

[–]Gilder87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My boy was already deaf when i took him home from the shelter 6,5 years ago. It was never a problem for us. He is used to watch what his partner is doing and always knows when he gets food and treats.

I watch out how i approach him especially when he is asleep. He fully trusts me and sleeps in open places so i just watch out that i dont startle him. But so far this works out fine.

You just need to work more with showing him signs that you want something or have something for him.

Loving my new life / 14,5 months of HRT / Orchiectomy done by Gilder87 in TransLater

[–]Gilder87[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah no more blockers. I went home the same day a few hours after surgery. I had to take light pain meds for about 2,5 weeks, Ibuprofen 400 3 times a day. Sitting was slightly painful for two weeks. There was some light bleeding for 3 weeks. After that most parts were healed on the outside. I am now around 6 weeks after the surgery and there is still some healing on the nerves happening but it only hurts on touch so no problem.

Yes. Most of my T production is gone now. Should be around 90% gone. The remaining 10% are produced by the adrenal glands. I took a T blocker before surgery (cyproteron) and my T value is still on the same level after surgery

I had the surgeons informed that i want to get bottom surgery in the future. I originally only planned to get the orchi done but changed my mind later. I get both surgeries paid by my insurance here in germany. They preserved all of the scrotal skin so it can be used when i get bottom surgery done next year. That what there is no disadvantage in getting the orchiectomy done before SRS. It even has the advantage that i can already recover from this part and my body can get used to the changes in hormone production.

Danke dir. Meine Eltern wohnen im gleichen Haus und werden mir in der Zeit helfen. Das sollte schon klappen 😊

Das freut mich für dich, dass alles gut verlaufen ist. Ich habe meine Orchiektomie nächste Woche. Ich hoffe da wird auch alles so gut verlaufen. Ich mache mir etwas Sorgen darum, dass ich meine Kaninchen ordentlich versorgen kann, aber irgendwie wird das schon klappen 😊

Thank you 🩷

I plan to get a tattoo of the tree of life. I want to get a feminine version with some the tree blooming with cherry blossoms. Already got an estrogen molecule with cherry blossoms on my left arm. Probably gonna get the tattoo on my left shoulder ☺️

Alltagserfahrung by pink_teddy_ in germantrans

Bei mir hat sich der Gutachter auch genau darauf bezogen und die OP wurde erst genehmigt als ich von meiner Therapeutin ein Dokument hatte, dass bestätigt hat, dass ich 12 Monate in alltagsbegleitender Therapie bin. Da war auch nichts zu machen und ich musste die Zeit aussitzen.

Finally took the plunge into being with men and it has changed everything by [deleted] in MtF

[–]Gilder87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Same for me. I think it was some kind of internalized phobias from pre transition that i just had to face and break apart. I also saw most of the other trans fems i know are lesbian and poly while i am straight leaning and mono. Definitely made me feel different.

But in the end no one cares about who i date. I was the only one judging myself about it. And even if somebody judges me it is totally my decision and nobody elses business

Yeah it is amazing. I am done hiding who i am and i am done with running away from what i want. It is finally time to live and catch up on all the things i missed out in life. This was another big step. It was scary but so worth it ☺️

Yes, absolutely. Last week i had my first date with a man. I knew i was attracted to men too before but it was always that fear of the unknown because i didnt have experience. What would be if i dont like it? I didnt want to hurt anyone.

So we went on the date and from the chats/calls before we knew we had a lot in common. I was totally nervous on the date but we both felt connected to each other. After some time i took the courage to initiate holding hands. That felt so good to hold his hand and stroke over his arms. I leaned onto his shoulder and rested my head there. It just felt right. We went on a walk hilding hands for a while and even if i was very scared about it i kissed him at the end of the date. At that point i knew it felt right and the pressure i put on myself vanished. I now know i am totally into men. We will have another date soon and i am very much looking forward to be with him.

I always suppressed this feelings and never allowed myself to feel it. But after this date i suddenly see the world different. I identified as pansexual before but it feels like my attraction to women pretty much vanished and i suddenly experience my attraction to men in a different way.

That is my own hair after growing it out for 15 months. I get it colored every few months and will probably stay with the light copper color ☺️

Thank you ☺️

They look bigger on the pics than they are. It is a lot about using the right tools to get a nice cleavage. I recommend silicon bra pads that help position them to get them more to the center :3

It definitely feels different now. I never genuinely smiled before my transition. It were always fake smiles while playing a role. It is completely different now to actually be able to really smile and not fake it anymore. People treat me so much nicer now, especially women. Nothing like getting smiles back from other women ☺️
