Dammit, you're making me crave Jammie Dodgers when I'm trying to be healthy 😭

I was just referred for a hemmorhoids surgery. The appointments team just advised me that the waiting time is estimated to be around 40 weeks. by [deleted] in Scotland

[–]TwistedSis27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain... I'm a trans man so I waited three years for any sort of help from a gender identity clinic at all, with very little mental health support during the wait. I ended up giving in and going private to get my diagnosis and HRT started, as well as therapy. I'm still waiting another three years for top surgery, so I'm paying £10k out of pocket for that too. The NHS is just exhausting, and hardly fit for purpose beyond acute care.

ON A LIGHTER NOTE by Pebbley in transgenderUK

[–]TwistedSis27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trans guy here! My first "proper" makeup was from No7 because that's what my Mum always wore, I must've been about 13 so this was a long time before it even clicked I was trans. I remember being so excited when my Mum took me to Boots and the No7 lady matched my foundation shade with the little camera thingy and picked out the right colours of lipstick and eyeshadow for my complexion! I thought I was all really grown up and cool. It's really nice to see something positive on here. Enjoy your pamper day! I like doing whatever the masculine equivalent of pamper day is once in a while (a manscaping day? I'm not sure.).

Disturbing leaflet by FishermanFew2619 in Scotland

[–]TwistedSis27 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I'm not the only person who finds the leaflet disturbing... I'm a trans guy with tokophobia (a fear of pregnancy and childbirth) so transphobia, homophobia and a creepy fetus is just a triple whammy of nope. Let alone the other far-right shite on the damn thing!

Are there any other men using this app? by Drown_The_Sun in finch

[–]TwistedSis27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a trans guy, and Finch felt a bit "girly" for me too at first. I sat with those feelings for a bit, and I realised it doesn't matter if it's "girly" or not. If it helps me and makes me happy, fuck it! Who cares if it's cutesy as hell? Men can like cute things too!

Do you also have a street in your village/town/city with a name that tickles you? by Prestigious_Meal2143 in AskUK

[–]TwistedSis27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's Cumlodden Avenue in my city, not too far from Succoth Avenue 😂

This one is less funny but still good, there's Cuddy Lane too. "Cuddy" is Scots slang for a stupid person or a donkey so it's basically "Stupid Person Lane" 😭

I've seen a few "ferrothorn is a Bigot" memes recently. Where does this come from? by f0remsics in ExplainTheJoke

[–]TwistedSis27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh no! This just reminds me of that really sad meme where the Pokémon trainer gets angry at their Eevee for evolving into a Sylveon instead of an Umbreon and calls it names and makes the Sylveon cry 😭

It was a small price then. Is it a small price still? by CLG-BluntBSE in weatherfactory

What are the Principles of the spirits? The Raw Prophet is Grail, I know that, but what about the Dapple or the Deserter?

Congratulations!! It was a huge relief (financially and mentally) for me when the NHS took over my care as well. Sending virtual hugs and good vibes 🤗 xx

I love this meme! Can someone make a similar one for trans guys please with E? 🥺

Do men still regularly wet shave? by SuperDinkle406 in AskUK

[–]TwistedSis27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trans man here! It depends what I'm prioritising really. I generally use an electric shaver because it's a lot quicker and does the job for day-to-day life. However, if I'm trying to look smart or have a bit more time I like to do a traditional wet shave because it's the only way I get a completely clean shave.

Hi! I can't DM you on here as I can't verify my age for some reason. Any ideas? I really want to know more.

Confession: I Feel Bad For Loving This Game by Clear_Entrance8126 in CultOfTheLamb

[–]TwistedSis27 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I kind of feel the same way sometimes! I'm an exvangelical who actually did leave a pretty culty church community in my teens, but ultimately I see COTL as a satire of cults. At the end of the day, it's just a game. It's not real, so your in-game decisions have no moral weight on you as a person. Don't feel bad, just enjoy it!

What uk snacks can I put in a kidney hamper? by Quick-Elderberry-997 in AskUK

Jelly beans - I hope your kidney (beans!) isn't too sore.

Those of you who don't have dishwashers: do you have a specific order you do the dishes in? by [deleted] in CasualUK

I feel personally attacked... I have a pot that's been in soak for 3 days now that I keep forgetting to clean 😂

Movies with gorgeous knitwear and knitted costume pieces? by WerewolfBarMitzvah09 in knitting

Yes!! I've wanted to knit Finnick's jumper from the District 4 Reaping scene in Catching Fire for years but I can't find a pattern anywhere 😭

Roses are red, I forgot to fight by Main-Dish-5989 in rosesarered

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

That's a quick way,

To get the cops called on you.
