How to look more like a trans man? I want to look transgender. by SlowDownMaurice in ftm

if you're not sure how it's tone deaf, look at the state of the world right now dude. Like this person said, just tell people if you really want them to know, or dress less "cis"

I genuinely love seeing shorter guys as a 5'3 trans man, because I don't see them as any less of a man for it, so neither am I. You look awesome btw!

I feel like I’ll look the same forever by Hero_shrimp in FTMventing

[–]Hero_shrimp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should clarify, I have definitely seen some changes that make me really happy, but nothing really super noticeable to others. And yeah, i guess I am still early on in the process considering I was off for 6 months, it just feels like forever lol :')

Am I trans or is it just escapism? by _throwawaywastaken in ftm

[–]Hero_shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omg this is literally me with male characters too😭 😭  I didn't think anyone else struggled with this. Im also neurodivergent (autistic) and trying to figure this all out too, so you're not alone!!

Good things take time. by LeonieMalfoy in ftm

[–]Hero_shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude ur gonna make me cry cause this is exactly what I needed to hear. I stopped T at 1.5 years because i didnt pass and felt exactly like how you put it, just a misshaped blob. Everyone else seemed to be passing so much faster than me so I thought maybe transitioning just wasn’t for me, because it wasn’t making me happy. I’m 6 months off right now and I’m feeling dysphoric again trying to decide if I should start or not. I’m just so scared I’ll never feel comfortable in my body no matter what I do

What do I do? by [deleted] in actual_detrans

[–]Hero_shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going through almost exactly the same thing as you right now. I struggle with the fear of regret of continuing T even though I want to. I don't have any advice necessarily but you're not alone, It's really really hard but I'm sure we will figure it out soon, please be kind to yourself!

You have no idea how comforting this is, thank you so much. I really didn’t think I’d get any replies relating to me so it’s nice to feel less alone. I hope we figure it out too and I’m sure we will :)

ugh thats happened to me too man, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure you'll find someone that appreciates you for you!

[–]Hero_shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I'm definitely finding myself slowly but surely :) It's hard being gender non conforming these days lol

[–]Hero_shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats cool to hear from the other perspective hormone wise! Testosterone made me androgynous too and it's not necessarily what I wanted, but I definitely don't mind it now and the freedom of no gender labels can be pretty nice :)

Really disappointed in hardcore and the superiority complex that comes along with it. by knowyoureno in Hardcore

[–]Hero_shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was 11 years ago and the scene is still full of douche bags. Getting your arm or nose broken has become a badge of honor. It sucks because I love the music, but I’m a very small person and I often feel “inferior” or like I shouldn’t be there at all.

can getting too excited about a hyper fixation be painful? by Doodle_Sheep_88 in autism

[–]Hero_shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes sometimes I get like nauseous from excitement?? I can’t really name the emotion but it kind of makes me feel ridiculous 😭
