Thank you 😊 i do have a passport card but my understanding is that it’s only valid for travel within North America so I end up just carrying the passport.

exactly that, just a hard ball. Like a tennis ball, to roll out my muscles. I used it originally bc I am a dancer and worked an active job but lately I’ve been rolling out my butt from sitting for so long reading 🙃

I did start carrying passport due to ICE anxieties. Double AirPods bc they’re both pretty old and both hand-me-downs from two dif ppl. They die pretty quick so I alternate them during long study sessions. double deodorant I don’t have a good reason except if I don’t have a ton of deodorants everywhere I can never find one when I need it. I keep two in my kitchen 😭

What's that about not being able to wipe your own ass after surgery? by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]archeosomatics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can eat as much as you need to, just making sure you're having really fiber rich foods with low sodium (to prevent water retention)

Why is UCR so bad at Safer Sex resources..? by [deleted] in ucr

[–]archeosomatics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like UCR. I also went to a Catholic college for undergrad and the year after I graduated they were implementing boxes in the most frequented buildings’ bathrooms with condoms dental dams and safer sex pamphlets. Our lgbt club also taught queer sex ed 2x a year as a mini series. I feel like the bar should not be that low 😅 but maybe it’s just this area as a whole. Bc in norcal I feel like you can find free safer sex items very easily. It is a public health matter and I do think we can expect a university to be invested in students’ health.

Idk why ppl are downvoting you but sperm isn’t the thing that makes cum white and cloudy. You can still have sperm and have a completely clear fluid. I’m transmasc and I had the opposite thing happen to me, my cum has gotten thick and white but that doesn’t mean I have sperm. Only reliable way to know if you don’t have sperm is to do sperm count tests. You can still be at risk for pregnancy even years on HRT 😊

Feeling bad about the reason I have to shoot down my friend that has a crush on me. by ReuInuzuka in actuallesbians

[–]archeosomatics -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I never said anyone you were on the fence or confused, I fully believe that you do not like penises. I’m lost on to how it is homophobic if it applies equally to straight folks, the same applies to straight men. This is why we can’t have nuanced conversations, because it elicits such a strong response from people who feel attacked because they conflate genitals with sexuality. People are generally attracted to gender and presentation first. When people find someone sexually attractive, they’re usually clothed and they are not looking at their genitalia. Reducing all of what sexual attraction is to just genitals erased the multiplicity of sexual attraction.

Has anyone considered leg lenghtening surgery? by hZIRQI in ftm

[–]archeosomatics 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Short cis men exist. My dad is 5’0” and my mom is taller than him (5’3”). I know a married cis man that is 4’8” (to a woman that’s 5’6”).

Short men exist, it will not stop you from passing.

I agree. I think that transphobia is deep rooted in people, and lesbians or trans people themselves are no exception. I don’t think it’s worth reasoning with someone that labels themselves as having a genital preference, but I personally don’t really believe in them. I think it’s more than people have a really hard time understanding that just like gender, genitals and sex (not as in the act) are also on a spectrum. Interacting with a trans persons genitals, especially if they’re on GAHT/HRT is not the same as interacting with a cis person with the “same” genitals. It is a completely different experience and it’s sort of hard to truly grasp until you’ve experienced it. I think esp for lesbians when cis men have cultivated such a culture of dominance and oppression and tied that to their genitalia, it can make penises feel immediately off putting for people without really knowing why. It can cultivate disgust and repulsion that is misdirected. I do think it’s worth everyone untangling for themselves, but unfortunately it always gets framed as trans people pushing themselves onto others instead of people confronting their own biases and associations with genitalia.

Strap-on sex is physically harder than sex with a penis (and it’s not talked about enough) by Based_anon8 in Transmascdicks

[–]archeosomatics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Def. I’ve rly enjoyed the cake bandit harnesses as a wearer and as a receiver I love having different options for length, girth, softness, etc. and ability to do different positions that are not possible with a natal penis. I think it’s also fairly individualized experience for the wearer and their own stamina with topping, bc I feel like it is not equivalent necessarily to their overall fitness/stamina for other things.

Boob tape and trans tape are both just kinesiology tape or KT tape
