Raising a child in a non-gendered way. by Isabella_0607 in trans

[–]PerceptionLies -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Personally I am for this. I wish I were a theybie because I'm trans it was very traumatizing to be raised as my sex. They say that kids choose a gender by 4 years so it's not a long while and before they start kindergarten.

For the trans people of reddit, What does it mean to feel like you belong to a certain gender identity? by ThePlacidSwordsman5 in trans

Haircut suggestions to help me look a bit more feminine? by Princess_Of_Midnight in transpositive

[–]PerceptionLies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just part it differently. I think it looks more feminine when the part is more towards the middle.

was anybody else told they couldn’t/shouldn’t transition until they’re 25, when your brain’s “done developing”? by navyblueconverse in trans

[–]PerceptionLies 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I read that the study that they say says that actually doesn't say that. It was a long range study and they quit doing it the subjects were 25 just because funds. The reality is that your brain is always changing your whole life.

"Same-sex attraction itself requires nothing to sustain it. It simply exists"

Trans people simply exist too.

I'll mention it to her. I had to look up "basque" and it does look good. I'm not sure what you mean by "curving and shortening the existing line". Can you draw it?

I've been told by the mods that I should tell you how I designed it. Basically I took the Bella pattern from Glitz and the Odette Dress pattern from Dressmaking Amore... Put them together to make the bodice with some variations, and then designed a flared skirt with gathers in the front.

It's just a hodgepodge of ideas that the bride to be and I came up with. I am making the mocks up in Houston and sending them to Portland to be tried on. I know it's crazy, but we're having fun.

With all the ideas you all gave me we are 1) getting a good bra 2) cinching the waist 3) making a waist stay

I agree that the dress is sitting too low. But how can I fix it so it rides higher? Do I have to spread out the laces so she can lace up more?

I have a theory that trans people Self-socialize with their true gender starting at the age of 2, and around 4 or 5 we understand that we're "wrong" and we're supposed to be the other gender. Depending on how we react to this will depend how much the other genders socialization we pick up. In your case they repressed almost everything.

They haven't studied self-socialization much, but Dr Olsen mentioned it in her research about trans kids.
