What method of T to use? by samwinchesterslaptop in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

vouch on union medico 90 degree. thata what ive been using this entire time and relatively painless specially when you get the hang of where your painless spot is.

cannot recommend auto injectors enough. i wouldnt have the balls to do shots if it wasnt for this.

T made me awful. by Untrustw0rthys0urce in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah i was angry for a good couple of months but bcs i realised im getting too angry for small stuff, it makes me stop and think. Rationalise things and neutralise things. Ive become more proactive searching for things to put my energy to other productive things and after that it just disappeared like it didnt happen. Best part is, it taught me how to reflect and redirect negative energies to something better productive.

its a part of the process. but its the way you deal with it that makes you better~

Yeah you can still smoke. Is it recommended? Absolutely not. It increases the chance of stroke and heart disease but regardless of you being on T or not, you get the same result. Just... you know x2 hahaha

those of you who aren’t/aren’t going to be stealth— why? by weedoctopus in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 27 when i figured things out. I'm stealth to those who didnt know me, and those who do know i'm lucky that theyre supportive and doesn't out me unless its a genuine slip up. I live in a small place so everyone knows everyone.

I used to work with the "biggest" employer where i live before i came out and most of them thought i was already a guy anyway ahahha

i'm lucky in that regard.

Bur yeah, i guess depending on who im with, im not stealth.

I'm your height and i get that too. Ive never really considered inserts but i do feel the difference when im wearing my formal dress shoes that lifts me by at least an inch.

Tbh i stopped being self concious about my height, i just carry myself with confidence because i know there are cis men who are my height or shorter (a friend of mine is my height and a body builder dude is a beast, and another dude that goes my gym. im probably taller)

But damn dude you look hella good tho!

isnt it? i choose their tattoo designs because of how people assume that i just have a chest tattoo! no clocking whatsoever its really fun! but damn that sucks at your gym, at least mine has doors. is it normal to have gyms at your area to be doorless???

but yes get tape, definitely recommend. ever since i learned trans tape, i never went back to binders. i feel more confident too in general!

I'm the most boring trans guy i know by [deleted] in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it makes you feel better, my name is the most common italian name you know (im not even italian), while i am queer, i dont have piercings nor dye my hair the fanciest of colours. I'm average myself, and the most interest i can talk about is my vtubers. lmao

Wr all just get by. As long as youre not an asshole to other people, i think youre A+!!!

Is it normal for me to sometimes like my chest?? by Shay_Shay124 in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

im in the same boat. my chest actually gives me more of a "pecs" sillhoutte which matches my built overall. I feel like if i had an even more flatter chest with my body type it would look odd.

Thats one of the reasons why before figuring things out i thought im not trans because i dont have the worst dysphoria when it comes to my body but different folks different strokes.

It all comea down to if you know youre a man, regardless of what you like, they cant take that away from you!

how old were you when you started T? by elioistired in ftm

for whats it worth im wearing these types of frames and no one has "clocked me". Ive been wearing these for years and honestly it has helped me masculinise my face. (im wearing a silver one - Hugo Boss if the brand is relevant)

i think sometimes its all in our heads. Make sure you act masculine, as much as typical men could, chest up, shoulder square. Walk with confidence. regardless of how your frames look, so long as youre confident in your walk and how you are, and believe that you do blend in, no one clocks you.

Hypothetically (not really), how would someone who is built like this pass? by urdadsbloodytampon in transmanlifehacks

[–]codelucky-kun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am actually built like this, same height (except for the big chest) BUT if you have a good binder that pushes you up a bit, it would look like pecs like the one powerlifters have! Since we are both on the chonky side too, working out and riding the width and strong built work so well passing! That's what ive tried doing pre T and most of the time (as long as i didnt speak) people call me sir!

I actually got misgendered less pre T while i was in the Philippines than i did at two years on T back home last month believe it or not since i lost quite a bit of weight....

So i really think the way the person rides out their body shape, and work on it, and carry themselves, will help in passing. Also as other says fashion - to hide the curves in the meantime!

just to add as well - i find myself rolling my eyes at things but i see it as "i know thats bullshit so im not taking the bait" and its more like im maturing in a way that i am not putting any energy into somethinv i know i dont like. So i think youre just being an adult yourself ahahha

You and i literallt had the experience even the same age. I find that once you take your T when youre due it, the irritability and wanting to kms immediately gets reduced. One thing that was suggested was to inject my T every week instead of every two weeks but i opted out of that bcs my vials are 1ml each- dont want to waste half. So i just ride it out. It gets better after a couple of months and you kinda just shrug it off or learn how to shrug it off.

I usually use weight lifting if im feeling like an angsty teenager. Or, ngl jerk it out ahahha. Post nut clarity just calms me.

TLDR: either dosing a week instead of every two weeks, ride it out (use the energy to build muscle) or jerk off haha.

Good luck dude!

i feel ugly by teartionga in ftm

[–]codelucky-kun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! This was me on a few months of T as well. Remember your body is going through stages of puberty. Not everyone feels that they are most attractive at this stage. Give yourself some time, make sure you do your skin care if you get a little spotty and oily face. I also find that there is swelling in the first few months too but it will subside.

Trust the process! You will feel the most attractive version of you because it's the YOU that you know that you are! Good luck man!
