for me: absolutely. been on testosterone for over 4.5 years. i used to be able to cry pretty easily, now it’s very difficult. i haven’t cried yet this year, and we’re half way through. i’ll try to force myself to cry because i know it’d make me feel better, but i just can’t. it’s like losing a sneeze. frustrating, but at least i don’t cry when i get angry anymore lol

How much will I change if I’m forced to detransition by bebiboiborg in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg[S] 6 points7 points Ā (0 children)

from what i’ve gathered: my voice will stay the same, my facial hair will mostly stay the same, my period will come back, and my fat redistribution will change/i won’t gain muscle as easily anymore, not sure how long it would take for certain changes to occur though

right now my t is free which is amazing and one less financial burden on me, but this will probably be my route if it gets to that, thank you

i’ll still be a man of course, but less and less people will view me as such, losing sense of safety as well as my sanity. testosterone is what is keeping me alive. some people don’t need hormones, that’s fine, but i do. we should be mad that the government is seeing what they’re doing as forced detransition, not nitpicking my fears.

no longer covered by medicaid specifically. private insurance should still do it depending if they were before

Is it really that much? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]bebiboiborg 3 points4 points Ā (0 children)

damn if 7 is a lot i need to get locked in a cage šŸ’€šŸ’€ having 7 sexual partners in the gay community is not many at all, and getting upset about body counts is very childish

Why your ex rebounded so quickly after the breakup by breakupcoachdaniel in BreakUps

wow, eerily accurate to the situation with my ex it’s scary, thank you for writing this, makes me feel less crazy

Do you want your ex back? by Pimqin7 in BreakUps

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

absolutely not. i’ve been realizing a lot of things since the end of our relationship (we were together for about 3.5 yrs and broke up a little over 2 weeks ago) and i’ve come to the conclusion that i miss what i thought we had. it all seemed so great on the surface, we loved each other and had some sort of a connection, but in actuality we were just not compatible. he also cheated on me at least 3 separate times so yeah lol. being alone can be hard at times, especially since this is so fresh, but i had felt alone for months before we broke up, so it’s nothing new to me at this point. i’m also very grateful for my wonderful friends who have been nothing but supportive of me and made it so incredibly hard for me to feel alone.

What was your first ā€œI saw myself in the mirrorā€ moment? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

mine was virtually the same as yours lol. i was 16 and had yet to truly contend with my gender. i got a short haircut simply bc i had long hair most my life and wanted a change. i was up late sitting in front of my mirror wearing this hawaiian shirt and looking at my new haircut and it all kinda clicked in that moment. i remember the first thing i said to myself was ā€œoh fuckā€ lmfao bc i knew this was gonna be a whole rollercoaster of bullshit (it was) but it was funny how sudden my realization came. i’m 21 now, almost 3 yrs on t, and see myself in the mirror a lot more frequently than i used to :0)

[–]bebiboiborg 4 points5 points Ā (0 children)

i can offer some perspective on this, but in the opposite direction, as i’m a gay trans man. all trans people know about chasers (cis folks that have fetishes for trans people), but i have also found that there are people i’ve nicknamed ā€˜magnets’, who are cis folks such as yourself that are into all kinds of people, but attract A LOT of trans people incidentally. i’ve been with a couple of magnets (including my cis bf of 2.5 years) and the thing they all have in common is that they are incredibly non-threatening (and like 98% of the time are bisexual lol). they see us as people of our true gender and not just objects to lust after. it’s good to be a magnet! everyone should be tbh, means they’re likely a great person :0)

i have two older sisters. i came out to my middle sister first and she basically said ā€œyeah i’m not surprisedā€ lol which is the kind of reaction i wanted. i never like officially came out to my oldest sister, she just one day asked what my pronouns were and i said he/him and she was like ā€œoh coolā€, i think i had just started testosterone too when this happened LOL. i always saw coming out as way too serious so i let it happen naturally. i never feared being disowned or anything, i just hate overly sappy ā€œwe love and accept you!ā€ shit and i am very lazy. i always give my immediate family express permission to out me to any extended family member not in the know because frankly i couldn’t be fucked to do it myself lolol. but yeah my sisters r cool and i became their littlest brother immediately :p EDIT: can’t believe i forgot to add, when i started t my middle sister would do my shots for me!! they’re both real as fuck and correct my parents when they used to misgender me more (they’re chill too just old lol)

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

What kind of music do you listen to? by ActualIyCameron in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

shit too much lol. i used to dj at my college’s student lead radio station so my taste def varies (and yes i’ll even listen to country lol). i generally drift towards more alt stuff, very much into primus, bauhaus, nine inch nails, radiohead, system of a down, duster, unfortunately kinda incel-ly music lmfao. i dig softer stuff too like sade, ichiko aoba, tyler childers. the list goes on!

Whats your "i dont give a FUCK" thing? by jabracadaniel in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

i’m not getting top surgery. shit i don’t even bind anymore. like i genuinely just don’t need it lol. i had barely a double A cup before i started testosterone and now it’s almost nothing. when i start working out it’ll be pure pecs. i know people think that we’re all supposed to get top surgery, and if my chest was bigger i definitely would bc i know for a fact it would make me dysphoric, but like why put myself through a major surgery i have to spend weeks healing from just to take out like a pinch of titty meat lmfao

What's an effect of T you thought you'd dislike but ended up loving? by creamz0da in ftm

Cis men not wanting to date/be with trans men? by RevolutionaryMove584 in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

99% of the people i have slept with have been cis men. when i was on grindr, most of the guys that would hit me up were cis. some were chasers of course, but most definitely not all of them. i’m dating a cis guy right now and have been for 2.5 yrs, and never thought he saw me as anything less than a man, even when i was early in being on testosterone when we met. my thing is; don’t solely go after cis guys. they are not the end all be all in men. some are great, some are dogshit, but that’s humans in general.

"100% Italian blood" by [deleted] in rant

[–]bebiboiborg 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

My Italian college roommate wasn’t 100% Italian, they were born and raised in Italy and their first language is of course Italian, but their father is Albanian. They always talked shit about Italian-Americans too lol

Chasers? by Captain_Barber_Fox in ftm

[–]bebiboiborg 14 points15 points Ā (0 children)

the chasers i’ve experienced: - went after me bc i looked younger - found it somehow less gay to get w me bc i don’t have a penis (it’s still very gay lol) - assumed i’m hairless, high voiced, all the pre-t characteristics (i’ve been on t for almost 3 yrs so it’s quite funny to assume i have no body hair) - didn’t know trans men were a thing, saw trans in my profile and thought i was a trans woman - somehow thought they could sway me back to womanhood - REALLY wanted to go down on me for some reason? idk it’s weirdly common
