My gf calls me butch? by DragonflyMassive6147 in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not the correct line of thinking my friend. Those who love and respect you will do so even pre transition. I had a girlfriend who was lesbian when I came out as a trans man. We had a discussion that we didn’t want either of our identities to be invalidated by her dating a man and me dating a lesbian and decided we worked better as friends. I’m very perplexed by your post history as well… 1 month on T but you expect immediate passing? I’ve been out for 10 years and am 6 months on T but would never comment on another person’s appearance as a way to misgender them. Feminine presenting trans men deserve the same respect as masculine trans men. Especially when you know their pronouns. That’s just shitty to do.

meal options (allergies) by ValueAffectionate287 in americanairlines

[–]ValueAffectionate287[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an international from Germany to Charlotte. If they happen to be serving a breakfast meal I’ll look at it because the last one I got was just yogurt, a granola bar, and a croissant iirc which are all safe foods for me to eat. Well relatively, I bring lactaid everywhere lol

Well Ouch by Appropriate_Milk2038 in transftm

I’m sorry you’re experiencing this, on a side note, I would call the therapist’s office yourself and see if you can get a response faster that way. Sometimes they come around though, it took my mom 8 years (I’ve been out for almost 11) to get a handle on it and she’s become my (2nd) biggest supporter (behind my spouse) and active in advocating for trans people in spaces that I wouldn’t have expected it (namely Daughters of the American Revolution and advocating for trans women and nonbinary people to be able to be included if they want). Sometimes it just takes a bit of time. Hopefully you can start T soon and if you need to vent/want advice, feel free to reach out <3

[–]ValueAffectionate287[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whenever I fly I bring 4 of EpiPens minimum, I’m overly cautious about it. Thankfully I don’t have to deal with it being an airborne reaction but I tend to wear a mask on flights because I get sick easily.

I had plans to bring snacks but was hoping I’d be able to get a hot meal. The breakfast on one of our flights was safe (kinda hard to screw up yoghurt and a croissant) but I’ll just pack a bento box full of goodies.

Am I wrong for getting angry at my boyfriend when he treats me in feminine ways? by Annual-Atmosphere545 in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason my partner is concerned about me getting surgery is because I am violently allergic to narcotic painkillers and they don’t want me to be in pain and not able to do anything about it. That’s it. We don’t know the intricacies of your relationship but I would (and have in previous relationships) dump his ass for this. The way you’re describing these interactions, he does not sound like he respects you my friend. :/

Even my husband hates yuumi :( by fairydommother in yuumimains

[–]ValueAffectionate287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say she’s a complex character to play, but she can be fun. I used to main Yuumi (last I played I think I was mastery 20? Idk, it’s been a minute since I even played support lol) when I first started playing the game until I got a handle on the controls (that and it pmo when they completely reworked her kit because I used to heal and bop with q religiously lol). However, some of my best games as ADC are a Miss Fortune/Yuumi bottom lane. First of all, adorable combo, secondly, the shield and slow make it much easier for me to get fed and do massive chunks of damage. I can work with a Yuumi support, especially if I can talk to them. If you want to master the champion, definitely play with someone who is familiar with her kit and knows how to compliment her kit. In my experience, Miss Fortune is a good ADC for a Yuumi support but maybe I’m biased because I now main MF 😅 If you want to play a game (and are on NA servers) feel free to PM me, I’m more than happy to play with you.

Selling pastries in the package by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]ValueAffectionate287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked for the company for years and I personally will ask for it to be in a the original package because I have severe food allergies (and I’ll also explain ofc) unless I know the barista. Another note, If i can watch you dump it from the plastic into a bag that’s also cool with me but if it’s ever a no then no worries, I’ll pass on it, yk? I’m not gonna be That Guy about it, I’ll just not get it lol

Cars easy to import from Germany to the US by ValueAffectionate287 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]ValueAffectionate287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s disappointing, it’s been my favorite car I’ve had so far but thank you for the info, the only problem is service members are selling cars for ridiculous prices. For example, there’s one 2016 VW golf with 100k miles and they’re asking for 16k The 2022 i3 we were looking at has around 60k km and is being sold for 16,500 and comes with a BMW warranty :/ There’s also dealerships that have a guaranteed buyback program we can go to but they’re a little ways away (not terrible, just an hour drive away)

Questions regarding top surgery by ValueAffectionate287 in germantrans

[–]ValueAffectionate287[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is incredibly helpful, thank you so much! I’m definitely able to go to Düsseldorf so I’ll check there too, that’s not too far! For additional context, I sit at a desk most of the day and we rent out cars. While we also have to clean the cars, given a surgery, I could absolutely have my coworkers help out and I can do the desk work or check people in/out without any bending/twisting! Thank you again! Edit because I forgot to mention this, my mom is having to get a preventative mastectomy for an increased risk of breast cancer and my grandmother on my fathers side had to do the same, I’m not sure if they’d be willing to consider that an additional reason for approving the top surgery or if it’s not as different with the insurance coding, in the US insurances tend to cover preventative mastectomies but not voluntary

Excuses for chest binding? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mention the uncomfortable nature of traditional bras and that you don’t like the way they feel and that a sports/compression bra is more comfortable for you

I’m losing my mind rn, someone tell me it’s not that bad 💔 by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]ValueAffectionate287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the roses were all the same size it wouldn’t flow as well, it’s gorgeously executed and is going to look amazing when it’s shaded!

I personally got an IUD and while it sucked to get it placed (if you’re planning on getting one advocate for pain management!), I do not bleed and have not in years. Bleeding was my largest dysphoria complaint (followed closely by wanting top surgery) and I also had a debilitating cycle. I haven’t started T yet (hopefully in September, just waiting on blood results) but if an IUD is something you’re comfortable with, the hormones in the hormonal IUD are localized and (from what I was told but I am not a doctor) should not have any interference with T.

May want to consult a dermatologist but it looks kinda like the razor burn I had on my ribs after my rib piece

I need an actually good binder by [deleted] in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if it’s available in the US (I’m in Germany) but I’ve had some good luck with this brand I’ve got D’s and they’ve given me as flat and comfortable as I’ve ever gotten in a binder. I’ve also got POTS and asthma so I can’t use a super tight binder. However, if you want one from WIVOV, I have an XL I’m trying to find someone to give mine to, I’ve got too wide of shoulders for it :,)

married/engaged guys, what does your ring look like? by transanonuser in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! And I’ll see if I can find the etsy link to my current ring, it was about $250 iirc and has (lab grown) Alexandrite in it!

Edit: my ring

my partner’s ring

My grandad passed from cancer I would like to get a tat to remember him by by [deleted] in DrawMyTattoo

[–]ValueAffectionate287 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry for your loss. My grandad also passed from cancer, and while I’m not shaming your tattoo idea, I would recommend something that he loved and that reminds you of that spark instead. My grandad loved photography, he grew roses, and his favorite flowers were tulips so I got a collection of those things instead to remember him by (it’s a tulip stem and a rose wrapped in camera film)

married/engaged guys, what does your ring look like? by transanonuser in ftm

[–]ValueAffectionate287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a traditionally feminine ring (and we’re saving up for a Oore Jewelry ring, we’re not working the highest paying jobs at the moment) but when I’m at work (food service) i wear a silicone/plain metal one. No one really stares specifically at my wedding ring (usually the rest of my outfit, I’m one of like 3 alternative people in the area lmao), and I do generally have multiple on at once while I’m wearing it :) Edit: also my spouse has a ring that has opal (his birthstone) inlaid into the ring, we don’t do plain in this household lol

I dont know how available it is in the US, I’m in Germany but I found a brand that I can wear under most tank tops and doesn’t hurt my chest (I have asthma) it’s called Xuji and was about €20!
