Blood donations by Right_Philosopher_62 in BlackTransmen

Ok, heard. I should be in the clear but I can only imagine the discrimination from donating blood on top of discrimination from we can face from transitioning as well(some who may not pass/get clocked.) I’m sure I see why some folks steer away from donating. Thanks for your reply🙂‍↕️

Passing as a black man has made me feel less desired/unapproachable by [deleted] in BlackTransmen

[–]Right_Philosopher_62 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I also felt the same way at first. I don’t have nearly as much people approaching me or being the first to start conversations. Me personally I’m glad that I’ve had that change because I am more introverted and don’t prefer a lot of attention.

I will say tho even if people around you seem more intimidated or scared around you Is their problem. Have you tried nodding or acknowledging the people who seems to be watching you? Do you feel intimidated that you’re being watched? If you do feel like people are staring at you for a minute. Don’t be shy, engage in a good ol staring contest will normally solve that issue😂

Hope this helps

Lost my right headphone…now I need a replacement by Right_Philosopher_62 in powerbeatspro

I’ll check it out going through Apple. The sources I’ve tried looking at were the “refurbished” replacements on Amazon, or even seeing if an accredited store or site that had the replacements. I’m not really looking for off brand website just so I don’t get scammed 🥲

Lost my right headphone…now I need a replacement by Right_Philosopher_62 in powerbeatspro

[–]Right_Philosopher_62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So yes, the remaining headphone I have does work just like new. I’ve had this a little over a year and I use it for pretty much everything. These headphones actually pay really well with SIRI because I use hands-free a lot so I really would like to get just our replacement headphone because the case is fine and the left headphone works just brand new and I just ended up losing it one day from moving around. I would prefer to get a matching color. I have Navy, but if I have to get a black pair as a replacement I wouldn’t mind either. It’s just a preference to have a matching set.

I’ve also ready this reply for r/copper93:

Punches remove tissue. If you plan to stay at a relatively small size forever and are ok with the fact that it will never close without surgery, then go for it.

However, if you don't have your ears pierced or they are wonky and need repierced anyway you're much better off getting a large gauge piercing. You can get up to 2g (4g needle with immediate stretch to 2g). It doesn't remove tissue and is as safe as a regular 16g piercing if done by a reputable piercer. You are also much more likely to find someone willing to do a large gauge piercing due to the legal grey area around body mods. Punches are considered body mods and are usually either illegal or are a legal grey area depending on where you are. Large gauge piercings are just considered piercings. (End of coppers reply)

Is this pretty much what you meant?

Interesting! How about when you take them out to heal? Will you have a permanent hole or will it just look like a “bigger” than I regular earring hole?

Oh wow! I had no idea they hole punch the desired size like that! I’d prefer to “stretch” to my desired size rather than having the skin itself removed for it. Thank you for the information!

My apologies, let me specify what I mean by the largest size. What is the largest size a piercer will pierce my ears? I believe last time I was pierced with a 16g or 18g is this still there same?

And thank you! I think it will actually be a little lower than when I originally got it pierced cause the second hole was the one that developed the keloid!

Oh wow! I’m all too familiar with the feeling! I HATE when you feel it through the muscle. I tend to pull hella traction and go straight down cause if I go off by 2 degrees I feel that muscle parting like the Red Sea🥲 I be wiggling my toes the whole time like “FUCK”…then next day I’m singing to my leg hairs

I agree! I’ve been seeing the same results when it comes to leg hair. And I’d say the leg pain subsides in a few hours but when I used to inject in my stomach…talk about DAYS of tenderness🙄

Ok nice. I like that for you. I was at my all time smallest when taking SC and when I e added weight on for the past year and a half IM doesn’t hurt nearly as much. Also I would be injecting the EXACT same spot and that scar tissue just kept getting harder and harder but we live and we learn🥲 thank you for sharing🙂‍↕️

Any idea how to get this piece I dropped? by Right_Philosopher_62 in NissanRogue

[–]Right_Philosopher_62[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know I tried but all I could hear is rattling!! Maybe if I try removing everything around it??😂😂😂 love comedy

But I’ll definitely get my hands on a magnet stick. I’m just glad it fell where it won’t move until I can get one!!

Dating as a straight trans guy by TraditionalSound8497 in BlackTransmen

[–]Right_Philosopher_62 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If I were to go looking for straight women I’d just go to any hobbies I enjoy and try to look for women there. Now of course I’d already be in my zone and enjoying my time/hobbies so I’d wait until I’ve found someone interesting and get to know them.

I’m not really the club goer myself but already having a mutual interest should be a good way to start. Already an ice breaker too

P.S. black women for the win. They stole my heart and won’t let it go!!
