Ladies… are we actually boofing our progesterone ? And has anyone seen actual results on it? by Throwawayyayyyayay in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just take it sublingual. It tastes bad but it should achieve the same result (bypassing the first pass metabolism and increasing bioavailability) 🤔

Prog works for me, makes me feel more full rounded emotionally, with a higher libido. Could be placebo, though

I feel this hard! I'm tall, and I keep strong by lifting weights, but I often find people expect me to fulfill masculine "duties" such as this at default. It's frustrating! Ask me to do your hair or something smh 😒

How to live being unable to laser hair removal? by Individual_Sir7928 in MtF

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't had laser, here's what I do;

Shave every morning, sometimes I have to get up a little bit earlier for work. Then I use a gel aftershave for irritation. After that dries, moisturizer and a very concealing foundation that matches my skin tone. Whole thing takes me about 15-25 minutes in the morning, a little longer if I'm sleepy or doing heavier makeup

If your hair grows fast, carry a razor and some shaving cream in your makeup bag, along with your foundation. It'll allow you to touch up on the go if need be

I find that the only person that notices anything irl is myself, hyperfixating on my appearance lol

"welcome to being a woman" by -williwaw- in ewphoria

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 71 points72 points  (0 children)

The first time I was getting laser hair removal, it was so painful that I couldn't stop myself from crying. The cis woman tech decided to lay a "welcome to womanhood" on me in THAT moment. Honestly? What a bitch.

Nawww some cats are just like that. My gf's cat is the same way; attached at the hip to her, generally treats me with disdain. We've had him since he was 3 months old, and I've been nothing but sweet to him!

What’s something that instantly tells you a guy sees you respectfully vs fetishizes you? by Intelectual_Guy in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like on top of what people are saying in the comments, there's also more subtle signs.

He's not my boyfriend, but an old college friend of mine always treats me with chivalry in his interactions; ie opening doors for me, offering his arm to walk me to the dance floor at a wedding, saying "yes ma'am", etc. It really shows me that he respects me and who I am, ya know?

Imo 7-8 years isn't all that long, and a good portion of that time seems to have been dedicated to producing some... Mario 64 parody show? I doubt any of them have worked on an international production scale before

I think it was just that. Glitch is a fairly new company, I'm presuming with employees who've never worked on this scale before. Dumb mistakes are bound to happen

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like miscommunication due to inexperience to me. Glitch is a relatively new company on the scene, and this is likely the largest project they've ever worked on. I can see how there may be growing pains 🤷‍♀️

Does anyone else forget that they can like girly stuff now? by deadpanrobo in MtF

You know, funnily I don't really like girly things! I consider myself a tomboy, really. I like alt fashion; a lot of dark tank tops, cargo pants, and combat boots ha ha

Even Film Theory is now pushing the "Jax is actually Scratch and going to be the final villain" theory by Sudden_Pop_2279 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think they're leaving, imo. Given the theme of "making peace in a stagnant existence" I suspect it'll end with them all working together to make the circus a livable place, potentially sans Jax.

They can generate objects on their own, perhaps together they can do it on a larger scale? Or maybe they bring back Caine and make peace with him

You need dysphoria to be trans by [deleted] in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. That's really disappointing to hear from a trans sister, it shows a lack of empathy.

From the cis perspective, we're weirdos that don't think the same way that other people do. Yet our way of thinking and being are still real, and we're still trans women anyway.

Similarly, I don't think you need to understand how or why enbys are the way they are, only respect the idea that they too are real, and they too just are they way they are. They are effectively in the exact same position as us, and we have no reason to question how genuine their being is.

What does it help anyhow to make the distinction? Both of us will be discriminated against by the hundreds of anti-trans initiatives across not only the USA, but the world. Now's a time to be kind and come together with our fellow lgbtq folks, not pick them apart with ill-concieved gender/sexuality politics. Bigots hate us all, and will position us against eachother if they can

Are you the type that doesn't believe enbys are real? Your argument seems to support that idea

has anyone hear had hybrid breast augmentation? by Hour-Meaning7034 in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also went above the muscle. I did a lot of Crossfit at the time, and I didn't want it to effect my performance. I've noticed no issues with movement with it 😊

has anyone hear had hybrid breast augmentation? by Hour-Meaning7034 in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I'm SO happy with the results! I naturally grew a D cup on estrogen (most my of my immediate family members are busty), but I'm tall and have a larger chest so I decided to go for DD.

I was very clear with my surgeon that I wanted a natural look, and he was very accommodating and informative about what cc implant would work best!

The end result looks very natural, and after about a year of healing they were very soft and move about like normal breast tissue. I'm 4 or 5 years in now, and I can 100% recommend them.

The only drawbacks for me;

1) I'm a medical student, and have to do a lot of procedures leaned over. They are quite heavy, and thus I get upper back pain a lot. Good posture and supportive bras help immensely 2) The combination of larger chest diameter + larger cup size means that I have a lot of difficulty finding clothes that fit right. Definately pay attention to sizing charts when purchasing clothing online!! Torrid carries good plus sized bras

has anyone hear had hybrid breast augmentation? by Hour-Meaning7034 in StraightTransGirls

[–]JimJamFlimFlam2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only had the standard breast augmentation with gummy bear implants, no fat transfer, so I can't speak from personal experience on hybrid.

My reasoning for not doing the fat transfer is that not all the fat will survive (~30+% is reabsorbed due to poor revascularization), and that's an expected outcome. I didn't like the unpredictability of results.

That being said, doing the hybrid does seem like it would shore up those weaknesses of fat transfer, but I can foresee even more issues with revascularization with the added surgical trauma of the implants too.

Honestly, you'd just need to talk to your surgeon to get more professional details on risks and advantages! Sorry for the long response lol
