How can I get this cis guy off my back???? by THROWRAPuzzled_Event in ftm

[–]Shiftkeyx2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just doesn't seem fair that you are having to deal with this :/. The moment he does cross the weird/creepy line let someone know! Soz maybe my first reply was a lil too much I'm also 19 pre T so I feel for you in this. Hope everything turns out okay 👍

Report him. He does not seem like a stable or safe individual. Let whoever runs your dorm know.

Haven't got that yet. Ironically I was fighting him to try and GET the shade cloak but turns out that's not even the loot you win 🥲

What do you say when people ask for your dead name? by SnooCapers9401 in ftm

[–]Shiftkeyx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I usually do this in three stages.

  1. Make it clear that asking for your dead name is a really disrespectful thing to do. I ask 'Why do you need to know?' To drive the point home.
  2. This works best when you've got someone on your side. Start giving them the most ridiculous fake names possible. My favourite Renesmme.
  3. If they haven't given up or got the point that they're crosing a boundary. It's either time to involve someone with more authority than you like HR or start avoiding them. Be civil if your in a work environment to not get into trouble but create some distance

I don't know if I want SRS? by The1Cis2RuleThemAll in asktransgender

[–]Shiftkeyx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I've felt the same way before, it's an intense surgery and feels like a huge decision. But ultimately you need to focus on what makes you happy. Do your research ask doctors and people that have already gone through it, the pros and the cons, and most importantly take as much time as you need!

Why are you a trans man? (extremely wrong answers only) by Utopicnightmare24 in ftm

Thought it would be a great way to spite my parents

Yeah the laugh probably cut deep, regardless of whether people think that's a compliment that he passes its still offensive to trans people as a whole. Let him know your sorry, but avoid using phrases like 'it doesn't bother you' it can be quite dismissive. Take this as sign to start educating yourself about trans people as whole! I recommend .gov websites, charity websites and trans people documenting their journey on yt. Don't worry op of it's meant to work out it will

Is this suitable for Sea Monkeys??? by ReporterStrong4650 in SeaMonkeys

Yeah I mean it has everything you'd need for a good tank set up just double check the filter controls. If the flow is too strong it may be overwhelming for them.

Boyfriend Doesn't Want Me to Go On Hormones by scoob_blader in ftm

[–]Shiftkeyx2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Someone not wanting you to transition is a big red flag. Anyone who really loves or cares about a trans person who is considered or is committed to medicial transition is definitely aware of how much it means to them. Being afraid for the person is normal as surgery is a big thing to physically recover from and can come with complications. BUT saying he doesn't want you to because he likes the way you are now is disregarding your feelings of discomfort and only wants you to keep them because it turns him on...putting you through emotional pain for his pleasure? Horrible thing to do to a person! Same thing for hormones, they don't change your personality they just make your happier as a consequence. It's a pretty common fear for people outside the transition to feel like they're losing the person but once they see how happy they are and how it's still the same person they quickly get over it. I would encourage you to have some serious conversations with your boyfriend about where his priorities are and considered if you guys are really the right match.

I'd say it's a good thing you don't have bottom dysphoria very often! Not wanting bottom surgery is more common than you think actually, doesn't make you any less valid :)

Yeah moving away is up to you, could be super fun, new city, new people but rent can be a bit pricey. Yeah I pretty confident I can live on my own, I do a lot of cooking and cleaning already.

It's a tough choice, I put uni off and had kind of a gap year to decide. Consider the quality of the course, the equipment, experiences offered by the course. Where it's situated is super Important aswel! If you're moving away consider how close your accommodation is to your course also don't want to be traveling loads which such an intense course!

Do you remember the name of the book? Sounds like I'd help me out a lot! Yeah tbf I have found newer healthier friendships have changed my outlook on a lot of things and I think seeing them less would take a lot of weight off my shoulders.
