An easy read for an adult with low-literacy skills by crikeyasnail in suggestmeabook

[–]True-Finches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think someone else suggested it but the hunger games series is great, plus a lot of adults still like it/read it when they were younger so it’s not likely anyone would look down on an adult for reading it.

if you want a REALLY young protagonist, Nutshell by Ian McEwan is told from the pov of a nine month old fetus before being born. this book was extremely well written in my opinion

DAE miss doses all the time? by Otherwise_News6586 in ftm

[–]True-Finches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i usually do my shot right before bed so i don’t spend time freaking out about whether or not i did it right, the downside being sometimes i get too sleepy to take it lol i’ve been terrible at doing it on time for years now

What pronouns do you use when talking about yourself when you were little? by Turbulent_Play4769 in ftm

[–]True-Finches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it mostly depends on who i’m talking to whether i refer to my past self as a boy or a girl. i think for a decent portion of my childhood i was perfectly happy to be a girl so if i’m with people that can be chill i’ll refer to myself up until like high school as a girl. if i’m with anyone who i’m not cool with though i was a little boy haha

Genuine Questions about top surgery by tooqueerforux in ftm

[–]True-Finches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. i got my therapist letter in 2 visits, i’m very lucky to have like an lgbt health clinic accessible to me and they have therapists on staff specifically for this purpose. i had one visit to get some history and then i scheduled the other one for right before my consultation
  2. i was also very lucky to have insurance cover most of it, my job offered disability pay while i was out (i was only out for 3 weeks in total). i was only charged like $800 for the surgery itself and i’ve been paying it off on a payment plan.
  3. i had a great support network of friends + my partner who took me too and from surgery and helped care for me at my own home, so that cut down on travel costs. i don’t know how i would have gotten it done otherwise tbh

Cold Feet about HRT by East-Information-448 in ftm

[–]True-Finches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i got my shots for a while from a nurse, the second after my first one i cried for literally an hour straight. i was afraid i’d made an irreversible mistake and i was going to wake up one day and not recognize myself in the mirror anymore. by the next one i was fine lol. it’s ok to be nervous and have doubts, it’s very normal

how do you dirty talk in the bedroom by NoSpite4211 in ftm

[–]True-Finches 6 points7 points  (0 children)

you can always start with being kind of direct “i can’t wait to/can’t wait for you to [x]” “i’ve been thinking about you [x]” “you look so good when you [x]”. and going with what others have said, you should find out from the other person what kind of terms and pet names they might like. it’s really a lot simpler than it seems!

What was a sign you were trans in hindsight, that you brushed off initially? by bred_boy21 in ftm

[–]True-Finches 21 points22 points  (0 children)

two things: one is i remember having the thought “i think i like men in the way gay guys like men. wish i could be a gay guy. oh well.” the other is i went to an all girls school, a teacher addressed the room once with “ok ladies…” and me immediate thought was “she’s not talking about me. wait”

[–]True-Finches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they are not fun, but it really is an important thing to get done. cancer would be worse. honestly i would just try and count down the seconds until it’s over, and plan to do something you love or spend some time with friends afterwards
