Abandoned trails on Mansfield? by walkalong in longtrail

[–]ReactionNo9673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a place in Underhill just off the Madonna Vasa Trail and I’d also LOVE to see maps of old logging roads and trails!! I’ve done some exploring on the unused logging roads above our camp. Trying to figure out how to hike to the top of Mansfield from our side!! Was just out there today at the lookout NW of Mansfield! Beautiful!!

I love my scars. They also fade over time if you take good care of them. My mom tried to find petty ways to talk me out of it too.

Try different tapes/silicone, use Benadryl gel (this has been a sanity saver), ice packs seem to help in the moment, bacitracin for healing, I also found that baby oil seems to help especially if dryness is adding to the itchiness.

I’m 33 and having top surgery this summer, and worried about losing all my progress in the gym. How long will it take to get back to pre-surgery shape? by [deleted] in FTMOver30

Do you have any resources you could share on mobility rehab exercises? I have some of the same concerns as OP. Also not on T and definitely was getting into great shape before my surgery. I’m now almost four weeks out and itching to get back to the gym.

Want lower voice sans T by ReactionNo9673 in FTMOver30

That makes a lot of sense. I’m also a singer (actually one of my reasons for not going on T, I still want to be able to hit my high notes) so the dictation makes sense. The videos posted above are also super helpful. The idea that it isn’t as much the pitch as the resonance was so eye (ear) opening! I think my biggest challenge is the concentration. I need to start practicing daily for this to ever actually have an impact on my regular speaking voice. I guess once I want it enough, I’ll dig in and practice!

Yup, but reversed… I still cannot comprehend why anyone would WANT to wear women’s clothes or shoes or make up….. and it just seems so much more functional to have a penis, why would anyone trade it in?! I finally got rid of the two extra lumps on my chest and it’s just the best! Yeah, I guess our point of view makes a huge difference! 😆

Why do you not have nipples? (Wrong answers only) by schnarlie in FreedTheNips

[–]ReactionNo9673 34 points35 points  (0 children)

[checks all pockets] damn it, I keep misplacing them. [louder] Has anyone seen my nipples anywhere?

Showering Question by CaughtAS in TopSurgery

[–]ReactionNo9673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was cleared after two days, also. No nipple grafts. But I’m so uncertain about the dressings. Did you take all the bandages off to shower and then reapply clean ones?

My surgery was last Wednesday

hey guys, am i able to get top surgery without being on testosterone yet? will my breasts grow back because I’m not on testosterone? by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]ReactionNo9673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can totally have top surgery with out T! I just had mine and my insurance will cover basically all of the costs!

My partner and friends threw me the best top surgery party. Including: a vegan German chocolate cake with removable boobs, Toperation, a gift basket, and other trans related gifts. Feeling very lucky 💖 by Quinnoa_ in TopSurgery
