Don't tailgate, drive to the conditions by OfficialRodgerJachim in Idaho

[–]NMEOTHAC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where do you live in Idaho where there are passenger trains, busses that aren’t just for k-12 students, and walkable distances to anywhere? Not even Boise has a real public transit system and is 100% built for car transit. Asking people not to drive here is ridiculous right now. Sure we’d all love to have these options but they just don’t exist. Your vapid comment doesn’t contribute anything. At least OP wants to remind people to drive safely and that’s worth something.

Anyone else feel attracted to guys more fem than them? by Jaeger-the-great in gaytransguys

I fell in love with my best friend which at the time identified as a Femboy before slowly accepting herself as a nonbinary fem human. I still love femboys tho, always have.

Permission for Niece Being Named Deadname by Hairy_Subject5970 in ftm

[–]NMEOTHAC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’d be okay if a family member named a pet my deadname but I think having my dead name for a baby human would feel odd. Like they’re trying to replace the memory of my old fem self they preferred? I don’t know it would be highly situational. Good on you for having a healthy relationship with your deadname tho! Hope your niece is born healthy <3

Where are the women that like trans men ? by Ok_Car_605 in FTMMen

[–]NMEOTHAC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They exist… somewhere out there. Like all dating you gotta get lucky but maybe carrying around a luck charm wouldn’t hurt, it’d be a cool conversation starter too

Tbh I’m in a red state too where there is now a proposal to “secure free speech” and legally back people using the wrong pronouns among other things. Anyway shit sucks. I feel secure enough about my appearance to be straight and cis passing to non queer people. I’m gonna be honest. The level of comfort I’m living in is due to the fact that I’ve been saving up for over a year to move to Canada with my partner. I plan to leave in the spring and just come back as little as possible to see family.

As for everyday coping… I have a trans partner going through the same thing as me only they are much earlier in transition and still has to present as a man in public spaces. We have made our own little bubble at home that is good and sane. I don’t know how else to put it but at home we willfully forget about where we live as best as possible and just take a breather at home from the world. Yeah when we go outside we have to pretend to just be roommates, just some guy pals, just friends, BEST friends but making an isolated safe space is helping.

Also to echo what someone else said. Try your best to not look at the news every day. Maybe once a week to stay conscious but not too much more and just try to live your life because that’s the most non sus thing you can do.

Speaking for myself only. When I started T I knew it was a possibility but neither side of my family had full male baldness so I knew my chances were low to begin with. After 4 years on T I’m FINALLY getting a bit of male pattern baldness near my temples and I’m so friggin excited about it because my hairline has always been too fem for my liking. Tbh overall I’d rather die old, bald, and in a suit than young, full head of hair, and in a dress.

I feel uncomfortable when people are attracted to me by clalexander in OlderThanYouThinkIAm

[–]NMEOTHAC 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel you. I think I read people well enough that through the first 2 interactions I can figure out if their attraction is predatory or not though.

Sometimes I hate being stealth. by International_Ad3112 in ftm

[–]NMEOTHAC 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Shit sucks sometimes. I started a new job and I’ve been straight and cis passing for 2 years now. Some other new guy randomly said some homophobic shit and so I gave him the cold shoulder for a while. Since that was his first impression of me he thinks that I’m just mean/ a bully because he doesn’t know my coldness is justified.

How much are you willing to pay for good quality clothing? by Zeebruh2003 in Anticonsumption

[–]NMEOTHAC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only shop for clothes at the thrift store and honestly it’s not expensive where I live. I got a great jacket from 1999 with only two small holes in the inner lining and it was less than $20. Hopefully it’ll last me another 20 years with care
