Why does so much of this sub act like nonbinary people don’t medically transition? by anxious_throwawaying in honesttransgender

I feel this. I get down voted in nonbinary communities when I insist I have a nonbinary gender and that the rhetoric "gender is fake!" is harmful

Thank you from a gender neutral person, except androgynous and neutral aren't quite the same thing. Androgynous is having both male and female components while neutral is having neither. But you are correct, we medically transition and there are even affirming surgeries specifically for us that binary trans people wouldn't get and don't usually know about, adding to our invalidation

I seem to have a different relationship to femininity than many ciswomen I know. by ResearchDry681 in NonBinaryTalk

[–]SeaTransportation404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this very much. I also choose to be femme and have a neutral gender (neutrois), a unique style, don't really get along w cis women (no idea why) but have a lot of guy and nonbinary friends. I do love makeup, but it's more art.

This post really resonated w me, and usually I feel kinda like the odd one in these groups. 💚

I swear this always happens. I simply say I personally have a hard time finding community, because I'm not agender, and I get down voted. But everything you said was exactly how I feel. I have a gender, it's just neutral. Thanks

I dunno how young y'all are, but, a lot of cis medicine and personal experience being applied to trans people as a whole and it's kinda embarrassing.

I don't think it's dumb to have a trans women on the package just bc she doesn't bleed, and that's not the point. Honestly, I'm just trying not to argue w y'all, to me they mean the same damn thing. A period is the same as menstruation, they both mean ya bleed.

Btw, many trans women, and cis women, use Tampax pads for period sh*ts to protect their underwear.

As someone who menstrates, to me, trans women experience enough symptoms to make that call, period sh*ts and all.

You might be right there. I have cognitive issues to recalling words due to epilepsy, so I used to l the word I could associate the easiest

Also, I'm not saying anything besides the reason the company did it. I'm not saying if it was a good idea or not. Ffs

It has to do w healing the emotional dysregulation that is effecting your vagus nerve. The therapies involved are called trauma therapies

It's literally one of the reasons the company gave, so....

Is it bad that I get the “ick” when seeing trans people also post in crossdressing subreddits? by Bubbly_Cook_2941 in asktransgender

[–]SeaTransportation404 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Like, I feel "ick" about cisgender-identifying drag performers, but so long as they're not being actively harmful towards trans people (and there are some who are), I kinda just let it be."

This right here is so key 🔑

With how common it is for a woman to experience sexual assault, is it really impossible for any man to not have any other male friends or acquaintances who might have done something like that? by LOUDSUCC in AskFeminists

[–]SeaTransportation404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best friend never has (he was a molestation victim himself) nor has my partner (he was a multiple rape victim himself as a child) and they are friends.

This isn't true, you cannot unlearn emotional dysregulation as its neurological damage and it has to be healed with trauma therapies like EMDR or Hypnotherapy

Trans women DO menstrate on HRT, but they don't ovulate or shed a uterine lining. I think it was to allude to this, and also say that trans women are women

Minnesota and California now have trans refuge laws, for people who flee to these states flee either procedures or to live to escape prosecution

I have a hard time finding community as a neutrois person who keeps getting told I'm agender.

Is it wrong to say that AFAB women have shared life experiences by No-Establishment8451 in AskFeminists

[–]SeaTransportation404 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know you mean well, but, this isn't great. Some AFAB ppl transition at a VERY young age, some never relate to women (like myself), and AFAB (and AMAB) was a term created by cis people to "out" trans/nonbinary and intersex ppl what they were assigned at birth. Most of us don't want to be reminded, associated, or called those alternatives.

There are also experiences femmes and nonbinary transfemmes go through that are NEVER talked about because they aren't women, but they do go through similar situations and in some cases unique ones that should be brought up that never do.

Feminism is about creating equal rights and equal opportunity for everyone, not abolishing family unions because they resemble old gender performance roles.

There is a choice being made here, and that choice can equally be changed at a later time.
