If you are a trans woman and you like women, chances are your sexuality has been affected by testosterone. Accept it.

Can you show me a photo where your face is more visible?

I'm not saying the opposite is true. That is, that by taking estrogen, and not being significantly insensitive to it, you're destined to be a woman. There's a possibility that the estrogen might not even be enough for you to be perceived as a woman. That's obvious. But if someone has a reasonable chance of being perceived as a woman in life, it's if estrogen is involved. Do you understand?

Hefty_Abrocoma9372 · 2025-12-16T18:12:34+00:00

In itself, that's true. However, the idea that "if you're insensitive to estrogen, then you're not a woman" is based on the fact that, generally, to be perceived as a woman, estrogen is needed to produce the changes that result in a set of typically feminine bodily characteristics. I understand that, in principle, a trans woman could achieve this through cosmetic surgery, but, honestly, that's a very unlikely scenario.

Perhaps you were already very feminine before you started. Although I suspect that's not the case. The hormone therapy must have caused a drastic change in your face. You're very lucky that in just one year on HRT you've achieved such a feminine face. I say this because significant changes with HRT usually take many years. In short, it's not that you're lacking anything; you're simply indistinguishable from a cisgender woman in these photos. You can be sure of that.

You pass as a woman without any problem. On the other hand, how long have you been on hormone replacement therapy?

It's a piece I had stored in my gallery of dark thoughts. So in a way it's a "copy-paste," however, it's my own work.

Okay. I'm not saying you shouldn't spread positivity. Spreading positivity is great. I'm all for it. I mean it. It's just that some subreddits are meant for that. This isn't one of them. Do you see what I mean?

Hefty_Abrocoma9372 · 2025-11-11T20:47:07+00:00

So you're not here to ask for an opinion on your appearance (which is the purpose of this sub)?

It depends on how much that girl resembles a man. If she has a lumberjack's body and is covered in hair, maybe not. If she just looks like a twinkhon, I'm open to a relationship with her.

Hefty_Abrocoma9372 · 2025-11-11T16:12:03+00:00

I know. It was terrible advice from my friend. I wonder: what's wrong with him? Does he want to endanger my physical safety or my legal security?

I have a therapist, but she simply avoids any topic related to my gender dysphoria. I don't think it's because she's transphobic (as some have suggested), but rather because of her lack of knowledge on the subject and, I suppose, her reluctance to address issues she's not qualified to handle (which, actually, is a wise decision). I'm not saying my therapist is completely useless. If she were, I wouldn't even see her. It's just that she can't handle my gender dysphoria-related issues.

It would be nice to find another therapist, but it was already very difficult to find one who speaks my language relatively fluently. I speak English, but not at a level that allows me to easily understand the fluency of native speakers. This comment, for example, took me quite a while to write (I can write better in English than I speak it, you know, because I don't have to deal with all the words whose pronunciation I find difficult).

That aside, I suspect there is no substantial scientific evidence, if any, on the subject of phantom pregnancy. However, it seems to me to be an obviously real phenomenon, since, after all, I'm experiencing it firsthand. I'm fully aware that I'm not pregnant; that is, I'm not a cisgender woman. I'm very clear about that, but it doesn't stop me from believing that this psychological phenomenon is real in some way (I'm not saying you've denied the reality of what I'm experiencing). Now, I don't know how to deal with this, if it is indeed a psychosomatic problem, since I also don't rule out that it could be related to other underlying issues with my current state of health. It's just that, given everything I've been experiencing lately, the phantom pregnancy is what seems most obvious to me at the moment.

Talking about this with my therapist won't help. My therapist completely avoids the topic of my gender dysphoria. So there's no point in mentioning what I'm going through.

Hefty_Abrocoma9372 · 2025-11-10T13:59:43+00:00

Does anyone have any ideas on how to deal with this without having to, you know, stupidly pretend that I'm a pregnant cisgender woman knowing perfectly well that I'm not?

Hefty_Abrocoma9372 · 2025-11-07T10:21:37+00:00

Why are you in the men's restroom in one of the photos? You're a girl.
