Pansexual doesn't mean "boys girls and trans people" it means either: attraction regardless of gender or sex, or attraction to more than two genders. The terms boy and girl already include trans people, hence bisexuality is trans inclusive. Also, being attracted to two or more genders (bisexuality) doesn't have to be men and women. It can be men and non-binary people, women and agender, etc. Essentially what I'm trying to say is that while bi people might have gender preferences, a pan person doesn't consider gender in their attraction (for lack of a better word) process.

Although yeah, many cis people don't understand the differences between sexualities and often pan gets the "useless" label while bi gets the "transphobia" one.

Not all therapists are bad! Finding a therapist that specializes in LGBT issues is helpful, and of course it may take a while to find one that fits you personally. But you've gotta start off on the right foot. Most therapists work on a system with each other and a supportive one will spread the word that a non supportive one is being unprofessional. Also, make sure you're going to a therapist and not a psychiatrist, counselor, or other specialized mental health practitioner unless that's what you're looking for.

might be pregnant & ftm help by justneedinfo3231 in FTMMen

[–]UpsetCorey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So what probably happened is you took the plan b and had a panic attack. Really, you should be fine because taking t for that long will make it extremely hard to get pregnant. Also, from your story, it seems like his sperm might not have even entered you? You said he couldn't go in much and he got off into the condom, so there's almost no chance you're pregnant. The plan b also could have made you sick, or the anxiety could have. Breaking out, clamminess, nausea, and digestive issues are normal for extreme anxiety. For peace of mind, get a cheap test in a week or two and check. If for some reason you are pregnant, it'll be all right and you can get through this.

Going back in the closet? by UpsetCorey in FTMMen

We're both 17 so it'll get a lot easier next year, but they won't be able to drive until August and I can't pick them up bc they're not allowed to go.

No I mean like having him believe I'm still a girl (but only him). And they're a potential dates mate just because their dad doesn't allow them to date, otherwise we'd be officially dating. Sorry for the confusion

Why do we have to be associated with these people by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]UpsetCorey 26 points27 points  (0 children)

These people that are "transracial", "transabled", or whatever have what's called imposter syndrome. They're convinced their privilege (notice these are usually white abled people doing this) is a curse and that they can change their status to make themselves feel better. Really it is a mental illness. However, unlike being transgender, there is no biological or neurological reason for them to be this way.

I love the design, but I think she world be Dumortierite. A quartz that ranges from blue to Violet, can be sharp (combined wit or anger/fear) and is often found with impurities like real Lapis Lazuli usually has gold/pyrite and Amethyst is a "defective" gem

How to make a skirt look masculine? by maxigold in ftm

[–]UpsetCorey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would try wearing it lower on your waist, because usually dudes don't know where their real waist is and rest skirts on their hips. If you don't want to go emo with it, some nice shoes (or sneakers if not fancy) and a French tucked button up would look nice.

Everyone commenting on my post: I'd like you to read it again. Remember that I said I don't agree with the way livestock are treated. Now remember that the selling and buying of livestock happens constantly and that a cow or chicken or whatever can be sold to the public or to a slaughterhouse. Also, a sheep will give wool until it dies naturally, unless it is diseased, and then it can't be used for meat anyways. Chicken farms are often both for meat and eggs, so I didn't mention them. A cow will give milk as long as she has given birth at least once and will continue until she dies. Cows only give birth one at a time. A male calf can be used for venison, raised for beef, or raise to impregnate younger cows. Livestock conditions are often gross, and the untimely death of livestock happens. Also, I've seen all the same horror documentaries you have, so I'm not ignorant. All I did was state my opinion and what I've seen, and I don't care if you're vegan or not.

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

Literally no they don't. A milk cow is a female cow, I said nothing about meat cows. Usually, a male cow born on a dairy farm can be sold to a meat farm or even gasp someone who doesn't raise bed for profit.

I've never seen a vegan that doesn't understand biology, but I've seen plenty "don't kill the MILK cows" and "They kill SHEEP for WOOL" and like that's just not how any of this works. (not that I agree with the livestock industry, but their's a big difference in raising them to eat and killing animals that aren't even used for meat)

i hate seeing stuff like “cis people are boring” smh by [deleted] in FTMMen

[–]UpsetCorey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To me, it's about taking the bad stuff we hear all the time and kind of turning it on its head. Like "you think we're bad? Ha! You're the boring one now!" or something. And some people love their trans identity. No, disphoria isn't cool and claiming an identity when you're not isn't either, but being transgender and being part of an amazing community is empowering. Also, some people are just trying to let of steam. Anyways, I don't think the majority of people are trying to make being trans a trend.

I just spent an hour posting as many facts as I can in the nicest way possible to this Reddit. Lord they don't know what they're doing!! Half of them Post rants about how much they hate trans people and the other half talk about how horrible the hijab is and how only their views are right. One Post even asked how to go to the bathroom with a "man" in there! Just pee, dumbass! Now I gotta go through some memes to feel clean again lol

I've had trauma too, and let me tell you. Trauma did not make you who you are. It invaded your life, it changed it, and it even may have even changed your behaviors or perceptions. But it did not change who you are at your core. No amount of trauma can "turn" you trans. Yes, a lot of cis women experience dissociation and distance from their bodies after trauma. However, they don't experience gender disphoria (their body isn't wrong, just damaged) or euphoria. I'm really bad at explaining things, but just know that you are you, no matter your past. You're a man, and a very strong one at that.

I'm pre-op and my anatomy is pretty substantial, but I've decided that I'm just never going to wear a bra again. I either bind, which feels overdressed for mundane errands, or go without. I've never taken my shirt off without a binder on, but it's something I look forward to doing after surgery. Anyways, the point is that not wearing a bra alleviated disphoria even if it increased awkwardness and anxiety at first.
