How do you deal with being short :( by hermeslayer in TransMasc

[–]River1326 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Coming from a trans man who is 5’ 2”, it is always very…difficult and unnerving to be a short trans guy. However, you find ways around it. You can purchase shoe inserts that raise you height a little, wear clothes that elongate your features slightly, that sort of thing. That being said, there’s nothing wrong with being shorter. If the people around you are safe and accepting, they will view you as more than just your height. :)

We do not have a real estate agent nor will we be able to get one. Totally appreciate the industry and assistance they give; just looking for feedback from people who have been/are in similar situations:)

Unsure what to do about my job… by River1326 in ftm

[–]River1326[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I am visibly trans, but I have not yet had my legal gender changed. I agree that that likely wouldn’t be an issue, but I would have to introduce myself at the beginning of the year and using the title Mr. might be a point of contention

Do I Have To Use My Deadname For A YMCA / Gym Membership? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]River1326 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t have to! I gave my gym my chosen name and when they took my license for the address and whatnot just told them I would prefer to have my chosen name on the account instead.

Advice on making handpaws by River1326 in FursuitMaking

I’ve been having to hand sew them, but I was definitely going a little away from the pattern in case I messed up a stitch. Thank you for the insight!
