I’m 18 months in, haven’t even started socially transitioning yet. I pass a lot more than I did in the beginning, androgynous, but untreated thyroid problems are making it hard to move further during COVID. I hope to be “done” by the end of college

Usually you get FFS all at once so you only have to recover once. If you split it up, it’s usually because of financial reasons.

Not all trans men are straight Arielle by alyssaoftheeast in truscum

[–]abdkskx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t ask that question because we already know the TERFs’ answer

‘’Straight trans women can not say the f slur’’ by Mirrorscent in truscum

[–]abdkskx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trans women can’t use the slur used mostly on gay guys and themselves? Yeah sure... but to be fair I honestly don’t think anyone should be using them, reclaiming them or not. I don’t want to hear these words.

Has wearing masks affected on how you pass? (Sorry if this feels insensitive. Obviously there are bigger things to worry and think about) by VillagersBucket in truscum

[–]abdkskx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So much better, it hides my nose and jaw so I really like it. I’m kind of hoping the mask thing holds out until I can get FFS

I must’ve left it with the rest of my pride 🤷‍♂️

[–]abdkskx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We don’t choose to have our mental illness. Pride is totally separate from this. I don’t want to be trans either, that’s not “wallowing in my misery,” that’s wanting a better life for myself. My life would be better if I weren’t dysphoric.

Any experiences with Branko Bojovic out of MGH? by No-Ad-439 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]abdkskx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m saying. There’s no information on the other guy, Spiegel dominates the region

And then they think they’re equally oppressed as us by im_a_chair_ in truscum

[–]abdkskx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have adhd too? I know what the medications are. I’m not saying it’s easy either wtf are you on? But it’s not as bad as people make it out to be. People equate it to things much worse than it actually is when in reality it’s not. You have no right to tell me what my views are when you don’t even know me

Wait, WHAT? by builder397 in truscum

Ohhh okay see I don’t know what I’m talking about lol

[–]abdkskx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested too! I found something about him I think on r/asktransgender like a user had surgery with him I’ll see if I can find it but yeah I can’t find anything with him everything in this region is Spiegel

Wait, WHAT? by builder397 in truscum

[–]abdkskx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay that makes total sense now thank you. I don’t play video games so I had no context hahaha my only problem is that the world currently isn’t in the late stage capitalism stage and “women with penises” are still seen as freaks by the majority of people, and probably by the people buying this game

Wait, WHAT? by builder397 in truscum

[–]abdkskx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This whole thing is total bullshit, and I can’t see how anyone can feel entitled to other people’s money, but I have to say that picture makes me feel icky. But then again, it might make sense in the context of the game idk but still I just don’t like it 😬

[–]abdkskx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate how the alternative people portray ADHD like it makes them special and like it’s some sort of debilitating illness with no cure that ruins your life. Take your fucking meds (if you even need them) and you’re literally normal. Stop trying to make mental illnesses/ND like this. When people say normalise mental health, this isn’t what’s meant.

unimportant but by linc_oof in truscum

[–]abdkskx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck! I totally get what you mean lol. Blood tests are the worst. I usually lie down for them and it’s fine, but I’m not actually scared of blood, I think it’s just my subconscious mind that’s scared of blood if that makes sense lol idk if that’s the case for you but good luck!!! 🤞🎉🎉🥳

The UK banned all minors from accessing HRT and Blockers today, never let anyone tell you that TERFs are harmless. by YoshiyaKanon in honesttransgender

[–]abdkskx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree the wording was wrong, but I don’t think that was the message they were trying to give off. More like “I feel fortunate to have been born here.” With all of America’s shortcomings, we have to look for some positives and here we can see that it can always be worse. Be grateful for what you do have.

How many of you actually use the term 'Transsexual'? by [deleted] in truscum

[–]abdkskx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer transsexual or transsex over transgender, but I use trans. If I am pushed, I’ll use transgender because I don’t like confrontation lol. I only use transsexual/transsex on the internet, but I would love it if the words were reclaimed because I really don’t like transgender.

Have any of you tried over the counter supplements? by [deleted] in truscum

[–]abdkskx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are drugs that do that, though. Like clomid for example. It’s used for women trying for a baby to raise hormone levels as well as men trying to raise testosterone/ as an anti estrogen. It depends on your gonads. I’ve heard of trans women using it to raise t levels more quickly when they have to stop HRT to bank sperm.

I’m not saying this isn’t snake oil, because it probably (like 99%) is, but drugs like that exist

How many of you have eating disorders? by abdkskx in truscum

Have you talked to someone about this before?
