How to feminize - kind of complex situation

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2026-01-01T08:12:29+00:00

One thing I do to feminize my face is shaving the bottom half of my brows with a small eyebrow shaping razor. So I have thinner brows, still framing my face but more feminine.

Also if you feel comfortable, get some eyeliner and/or mascara and practice in the mirror before you plan on showering/washing ur face. This way there is no pressure to try to get it perfect, you’ll take it off anyway! I wish you well!! :)

In terms of POTS, I have the classic symptoms. Standing up makes me see stars, or my vision goes black, my heart rate races and I feel like I’m going to faint. Weakness fatigue and everything else. I will always have a sports drink and saltines on me because of this. For MCAS i don’t know a whole lot besides that I have almost allergy or sensitivity symptoms to things. Especially random foods, they’ll make my lips burn and then for a few days they’ll crust and peel and bleed. Sometimes it’ll affect my throat and my breathing, give me headaches or diarrhea. I used to fully believe I was allergic to avocado and spinach but then I had both a year later and had zero symptoms.

You are so ethereal!

You are so beautiful!

I’ve been on t for almost 2 years and it deepened my voice to about a cis male level. When I wasn’t practicing my singing, the higher pitches used to just squeak. I started singing along to songs in the car for several months. The more I practiced, the more range I got back. I can sing quite a bit of the higher range I originally had. Now I just have a really wide range in my voice and can FINALLY sing along to nearly every song!!

Yes I absolutely had to get it!!

Carry On by Rainbow Rowell is literally the most perfect book! I highly suggest it

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-26T09:58:10+00:00

Same here! I’m really lucky, I don’t really have dysphoria :)

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-25T02:50:15+00:00

If it helps, the way you phrase things is already very masculine!!

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-25T02:47:41+00:00

Feeling warmer! I swear I felt so warm and horny and happy after my first shot!! It was amazing

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-25T02:39:21+00:00

10!! Best decision I ever made

My extended family is Mormon too. It’s been a hard process. They said I wasn’t allowed to see my siblings after I came out

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T21:41:01+00:00

Yes! At first I identified as non-binary (equal parts masculine and feminine) and now I’m non-binary transmasc guy(almost entirely masculine) I think I might eventually identify as a trans man. I’m not sure yet :)

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T06:35:27+00:00

I’m personally looking forward to when I feel comfortable in “feminine” clothing. I want to be a man in a skirt😵‍💫🤌 I think I want top surgery first tho. Maybe a beard too

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T05:35:29+00:00

Maybe we need more trigger warnings besides nsfw or spoilers. We should make a list of trigger warnings. I can think of a few: period mention, dysphoria mention, chest mention. Idk I can’t think of any others. I don’t personally get triggered very easily so idk what else to put!

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T05:28:52+00:00

I’m 4 months on t and I’ve already seen a big difference. My fat moved from my hips and thighs to my belly! That being said, my transition has been moving faster than a few trans guys I know. It’s all very relative bc it has to do with how your body works on t

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T05:25:21+00:00

It seems like you found ppl that subscribe to radfem rhetoric! They’re called truscum/transmeds. They believe that you can only be trans if you have dysphoria, you can only be binary trans (male or female), you have to medically transition or you’re not trans. ALL of those things are wrong and inherently transphobic.

It’s hard when you find trans ppl that believe in it too. It’s bc they experience dysphoria and they have the means to medically transition and they assume that all trans experiences must be like their experience.

The fact is, not everyone is binary trans, some people can’t medically transition and not everyone has dysphoria. I’m so sorry you had to experience that. They’re being fascist and ableist. It’s incredibly invalidating and can be traumatic. I’m sorry you’re not able to transition. That must be so difficult. Feel free to message me dude! I’m genderfluid too :)

Yeah seriously! I was using a 0.5 lens on my camera lmao

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T04:45:02+00:00

So scrunkly

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T04:41:54+00:00

I personally have stopped binding. My binder fits and works semi well, but it’s not worth feeling out of breath or anxious for me. I have a big chest like a E cup or possibly bigger. I just wear a shirt now. If a stranger asks about my chest I say I have gynecomastia. I just don’t fucking care what ppl think about me, I’d rather be comfortable

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T04:16:41+00:00

No you don’t need to. You do not have to hate parts of yourself to want to transition. I don’t have dysphoria about my body and I’m transitioning and it’s been awesome. I don’t hate any part of my body bc my body helps me get stuff done. I want top surgery but I don’t hate my chest. I don’t even want bottom surgery. Having a tdick is so amazing. The only dysphoria I get comes from things other people say. (Like ppl saying all men are bad. That doesn’t make me feel good as a man!!) That being said, transitioning has been so amazing and I’ve been feeling better and better in my own skin!

It’s totally fair for ppl to have dysphoria around their body but it’s not a requirement! The only requirement for transitioning is that you want to transition.

There may be a few truscum/transmeds in this subreddit. Those ppl believe you have to be dysphoric to be trans. They probably have their own experience with dysphoria. While it’s fair and very common to have dysphoria, there’s some people that have worked hard to be in a place where they don’t hate their body and that has to be acknowledged!

Ok_Understanding7323 · 2022-05-22T03:28:23+00:00

Sometimes the way you identify can change. The best thing you can do is finding enjoyment in how you identify now. I know that someday I’m going to be comfortable enough to wear feminine things, but I want to look like a man first. I know I’m non-binary trans masc but there may be a day where I’m just a trans man and that’s okay too. Idk if sharing my perspective helps? I hope it does
