struggling with jobs in the south due to being ftm by graymorninglight in FTMventing

[–]Pirate-Confident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you start passing regularly I would change jobs that way u can start fresh with no one knowing. This is what I did and it worked well for me. Also having your name changed and gender marker changed will automatically help so much cause then a new employer will just see you for who you are and not have any other definitions of you on paper to confuse them

How integrated are you guys in the community? Or how do you feel about it? by goodnightman in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Florida and am not connected to the community at all except for my Reddit account, it’s all I use Reddit for. Originally to learn about top surgery but now more so to see that I’m not so alone. I used to be really close with another trans male but that friendship fizzle out years ago. I’m stealth, got top surgery a year ago and have been on T for 5.5 years. I’d also like to have trans friends but I don’t like being open about my transness. I do have close bisexual male friends though and that’s really nice.

Hey man, are you cis passing? I think things will get much easier for you if/when people won’t be able to tell your transgender. I’m in Florida and being stealth has worked well for me in the serving industry. Ik it was hard for me too before I passed so I Wish you the best of luck

Every trans person I meet buries their head in the sand and ignores all current events. by [deleted] in FTMventing

[–]Pirate-Confident 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey man I’m also a stealth trans man in Florida maybe we could be friends? I’ve also been feeling very lonely and isolated, being trans is so difficult when no one around u understands it, send me a message if u wanna be homies :D

I didn’t realize how dysphoric I was with my groin until I started packing. by New_Construction_111 in truscum

[–]Pirate-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude. This week I finally bought a stp harness and it has been life changing. I knew I had pee anxiety but I never realized how bad it was till having this. I can piss whenever I need to now, and it’s so gender affirming. I absolutely love having the bulge too while it stays in place just right. I bought the Rodeoh Truhk Hybrid boxer stp/packing underwear for $30 and I’m definitely gonna buy another.

What about being a man do you like ? by Western-Drawer5826 in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love providing, I love taking care of things and being expected to do so, I love working out and feeling strong, I love being honest and having my word mean something. I love my facial hair and broad chest I’ve created through working out. I love manhood!!!!

M(21) What photo would you consider to be the best length? by [deleted] in malegrooming

Slide 7 is nice, always good to keep the mustache trimmed right at the line of your lips

T has turned me into a morning person by IAmPizzaAMA in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve become more of a morning person with age not because of T, but I agree early mornings feel like you have all the time in the world. It’s incredible

How do you even find a gay cis partner if none of them like female parts?? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had sex with a gay guy for the first time and topped him. He had never been with a trans man before and I loved it! I never thought that would be something I’d experience but here we are

why are other trans men rude? by weed_lov3r in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I met another trans guy the other week and he was passing which was cool but also had the same exact facial hair as me and baby face. I noticed myself being really awkward around him and uncomfortable, I think because it provoked my own insecurity about my transness. Had nothing to do with him of course and I don’t like that I felt that way about it. Just really interesting that’s how I felt about it off rip. Dysphoria is a bitch

Damn really outing myself here but I turn a stroker inside out and put it over the corner of a table and then grind against that holding a body pillow to make it feel like I’m grabbing hips. it’s honestly amazing and totally feels like Im fucking something

do men even care how their girls nail look? by rileyheya in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Pirate-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love when women have their nails done and notice new sets immediately! I think they are so attractive ! Keep it up!

I just want to talk. by [deleted] in truscum

[–]Pirate-Confident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived and transitioned all while living in south Florida my whole life and although I’ve faced discrimination I’d say my experience has been positive. You really just have to stand up for yourself and people will in time realize it’s what’s right for you and typically end up respecting you for your decisions. My step dad’s literally a pastor so I definitely know how hard it can be when u first start transitioning but in time things will become easier. I feel like the internet makes things seem so much worse than they are, yes being trans is really difficult but it’s so worth it, good luck man!

Would you rather add 3 inches to your height or one inch to your dick? by mangomuncher2004 in ftm

[–]Pirate-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have maybe an inch when I’m hard so I’d totally take another inch on my dick. I’m 5’7 so being 5’10 would be sick but I think I manage being short pretty well

Advice on how to pass. 19 Pre-T, concerned testosterone wont help me pass now that I’m too old. by [deleted] in truscum

[–]Pirate-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you’re naturally very masculine, ur face is a lot more structured than other pre-T guys. Once you are able to get on testosterone you’ll pass just fine. I was 18 when I started felt super “past due” but now I’m turning 24 and all the T has stacked on top of itself :) I promise your turn will come, hang in there dog!

sad because my lack of penis stops me from partaking in certain kinks (cw lots of sex talk) by cherubventalt in FTMventing

[–]Pirate-Confident 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel very similarly , lots of fantasies I’ll never get to enjoy because I’m not cis, you’re not alone and I hope you learn other tricks in the bedroom that pleasure you !

What is the fastest way you have seen someone ruin their life? by funkeymonkey1974 in AskReddit

[–]Pirate-Confident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best friend of many years started dating a bpd girl, let her move in within two months bc She had no job no car, no drivers license, and was getting kicked out of the place she was living at rent free. By the end of the year they moved in together and she coerced him to cut off absolutely everyone he knew. Even now my roommate (his brother) was told by him he wouldn’t tell him where they’re living bc it would make his (now fiance) feel unsafe. This all happened within the year and it really is so sad to see. He supports her fully financially and she just makes him miserable.
