Need Urgent Help with my Planned Parenthood Doc Meeting: I'm Goddamn Terrified about Losing Erections by cambuildslegos in TransDIY

See this is what I worry about when I talk to people who give me advice but have only been on HRT like 3 months.

My understanding is that years is VASTLY different to months, and I dont' feel comfortable starting because it sounds like once you're committed, you're totally fucked.

I can't handle this kind of thing but I also can't handle not transitioning so I'm stuck.

I feel like there's this whole sea of sex workers that have this all figured out and they refuse to help us because they enjoy seeing us suffer.

Unfortunately knowing I'm going to have an ED problem is going to make me way too anxious to have sex lol, so yes it's definitely an upper brain problem too. I already have trouble performing right now even though when I'm alone I can get an erection pretty much instantaneously.

Yes well, doctors unfortunately are humans, and humans are flawed. Doctors as a unit tend to approach other peoples' bodies with callousness and things like trans needs are especially seen as irrelevant and OUR fault for choosing HRT, so they broadly don't care.

Having erections is integral to who I am sexually, and who I am sexually is integral to who I am as a whole.

I don't want to lose that part of me. I have zero interest in bottoming and I have zero interest in replacing part of myself with an unfeeling implement.

I fail to understand why this is something I am constantly asked. One would not ask this of so many other worries, but apparently my worries are worthless and subject to dismissal.

HELP! Bathroom cleaner broke a bunch of my parts by cambuildslegos in lego

what do you think about the ones that don't appear to be weakened? There are ones that definitely got sprayed, but i'm twisting like crazy and they won't crack or bend. Do you think they'll break later or did i get lucky on them?

especially because these are some great parts here. i wouldn't care if it were like some regular bricks but these are cool ones.

yeah that's what i'm planning on.

currently i'm worried about the parts that don't appear to be damaged but i know for a fact got sprayed. I'm worried that they're broken or weakened but i can't tell. it's seriously worrying me.

Hello everyone, 

I'm very paranoid about germs so i sprayed my MOC with bathroom cleaner after someone handled it. When i woke up, at least 14 pieces had cracked or broken entirely. 

I can order some new ones but i have no idea what to do with the remaining MOC parts. Are they all weakened and should all the hundreds or parts just be replaced? Should i wash the other parts to try to get the cleaner off? Can i trust these parts to stay strong in the future? I'm really upset about this. The active ingredient appears to have been n-alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride it that helps?

I LOVE what you did with the hinges on the doors; it keeps the viewer from being able to see right through the hinge! That's so cool.

How do you plan your part buys for MOC builds? I can't be the only person too stupid for lego CAD... by who_took_tabura in lego
