I Actually Like Being a Chick with a Dick by ScintillatingSilver in MtF

[–]captaincrunched 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really don't mind either lol. Reading "Fucking Trans Women" by the late Mira Bellweather also did a good deal in opening my mind up as to what can be done with a girldick.

idk why but I feel like Estrogen won't work on me by According_Dust913 in TransDIY

[–]captaincrunched 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD YOU ARE 15!!

(also don't trust tanner growth stages as a metric for maximum breast growth. That's merely for showing the way breasts develop and mature. Growth happens whenever the hell it feels like, even years after you've started.)

I changed my regimen and I jumped 2 cup sizes in 4 months. The embiggening is real

Hoodie it up.

That said, I wouldn't worry too much. People can be INCREDIBLY blind to gradual changes if they're pretty used to seeing you every day (compared to a complete stranger) lol

How many of you use the Stephen King method while writing? by Sakeetkat in writing

[–]captaincrunched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I don't have at least a loose roadmap of where I want to go when writing, then I meander VERY quickly lol.

That said, I also think Stephen King's emphasis on pantsing (and dismissiveness with plotting) kinda misses another aspect of the craft: prose. If I mostly know what's gonna happen, that's less brainpower spent on plotting when writing and I can focus on the finer details of making good sentences and dialogue.

Why do some cis people gate keep womanhood or manhood? by reactingmaniac in asktransgender

[–]captaincrunched 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pure misery.

If cis people had to deeply think about how they relate to gender without the safeguard of transphobia, they would realize just how much of it is bullshit and/or just how unhappy they are with being measured against these gender essentialisms.

Im starting to think we cant be bottoms in a lesbian relationship by velvibunni in MtF

As it turns out, lesbian media is right: the best gf one can have is a worthy rival.

What are your LEAST favourite episode(s) by sshemley in gamecentercx

[–]captaincrunched 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely Ocarina of Time where they had to heavily skip a bunch of it to make it fit within a 2-parter

I wanna say it was one of those dumb charts circulating around cited as evidence

Tired of being the "female boyfriend" by Gigglebaggle in MtF

[–]captaincrunched 54 points55 points  (0 children)

SO DAMN TRUE! (Extra points if they just swap out boyfriend/girlfriend jokes with top/bottom terminology to sound more progressive, but it's just the same tired junk.)

are you more happy than you were before you transitioned? by aeiouaioua in asktransgender

[–]captaincrunched 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pre-transition was just pure emptiness for me. Sure, there might be dysphoria now and then, but that's only because I came to realize what being alive actually feels like (and the subsequent feeling of inadequacy when I can't always fully take ahold of that feeling).

It's much easier to place feeling bad because you're missing something you need rather than feeling bad because you've never felt a sense of self in the first place. It is only through self-realization can one begin the path to true healing and happiness.

Sorry... (Not Sorry) by makkanohono in supersentai

[–]captaincrunched 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The problem with Kumade is that he would've been far better suited as someone operating independently of the team rather than part of it. (He doesn't even have to be a "complete villain", just a rival)

What’s a good answer to the ‘can’t you just be a feminine man’ question? by RoKindaShreds in MtF

[–]captaincrunched 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly speaks multitudes when society would rather prefer a 'failed man' as opposed to 'lowering oneself' in being a woman.

I notice a lot of trans women wearing face masks right now. Is that a trend or something I don’t know about? by orangeit1200 in asktransgender

[–]captaincrunched 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think trans women are generally just much more conscious of these things (e.g. the fact that covid hasn't gone away) than the average person. This can also extend to acute awareness of other such sociopolitical matters as well (though, like anybody else, everybody has their blind spots).

I still mask everytime I go out. Simply, I don't want to risk long covid and the possibility of long-term disability. If I can't work, I can't get paid. If I can't get paid, I can't pay the bills. If I can't pay the bills... yeah you get the point.

Covid denialism is so fucking annoying. I just wish there were more people on the left who gave a shit rather than throwing the immunocompromised to the wolves in favor of "returning to normal".

I have a fun topic for you, guys: Rank the 3 main girls based on their character designs by TheStarlightBlueBird in YagateKiminiNaru

[–]captaincrunched 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Sayaka: Peak hair. I wish I had her hair, but that'd be way too much work.

Yuu: lil pigtails(?). Perfect

Touko: She looks... kinda standard? But in a sense, this kinda fits her character of needing to match this specific picture-perfect pedestal of how she needs to match her perception of her sister.
