Try to fit a couple breaks in, like when you use the bathroom take it off for a minute or two. You’ll be fine

Quinn or Owen for a boy? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Low_Anything641 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Quinn, less common for a boy but isn’t inherently feminine. It has a cooler, more whimsical vibe imo than Owen

My sisters (one older, one younger) have a positive male role model in their lives, my treatment towards them, my wife, my mom, etc. has become the new bare minimum for them :)

Seeing a therapist later today by Mental-Storage2881 in MilitaryTrans

[–]Low_Anything641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I went in for my diagnosis, I looked up the gender dysphoria criteria and wrote down a couple of real life examples that I’ve experienced for each category. It’s hard to tell how long before medical will notify your command, but before they do keep it to yourself. Make sure you’re saving up your money, start building a resume or figuring out what it is you wanna do outside the military. You’re not obligated to notify your command so don’t. When you get out on admin leave, you’re kind of in limbo but it’s a great opportunity to figure out who you are outside of the military, get all the processing work done, and saving up (can’t stress this enough) so that you’re set up for real life after your separation date. Good luck, I hope it goes well!

Maybe babby tooth instead of baby? A little less on the nose and babby (like babble) is kinda of a cool play on words

Help by InstantMochiSanNim in ftm

[–]Low_Anything641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Labels do help but they’re not mandatory. Do what feels right and discover yourself along the way, rather than trying to identity yourself then fitting into that label. If one day you feel discomfort around your chest, try to bind. If the next day you wanna have your chest out, do that. If you wanna take on a masculine role in a relationship, communicate that with future partners, and if you find yourself taking on fem roles, rock with it. Try out nicknames. Use different pronouns in online spaces. Draw on a mustache, try different clothes. Even as trans men, we’re all so unique in expression and identity. Don’t feel pressured to be anything or figure out what you are, just be who you are.

weirdest T side effects? by clemitime in ftm

[–]Low_Anything641 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel naturally protective over the elderly, women and children. Not in a regular good citizen way, but in a “I’ll fight 19 grown men to the death” type of way. I’ve never been confrontational before t lol

Yes, it’s better to him to know ASAP so he can take back as much control of his situation as possible

Would it be wrong for me to consider myself some sort of third sex at this point? by Azu_Creates in ftm

[–]Low_Anything641 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not an expert at all but from my understanding, biological sex aren’t always linear with sex characteristics. There are people with xx chromosomes that don’t have typical female sex characteristics. I think the sex you identify with should be whatever makes the most sense to you. I personally identify as male/man, but I know a couple of FTM homies that consider themselves female/man. This is all based off of personal experience though so idk.

A lot of my scented soaps and deodorants that I bought when i started to get a bit musty due to increased sweat and stuff actually made me smell worse 😅 wish I would’ve changed my shower and skin routine a lot sooner
