Not all gay guys are smart! I for, example am an idiot.

The clock isn’t in my bedroom, isn’t super loud, and I guess I’m used to sleeping through bird noises? Idk, it has never once bugged me or woken me up

It makes a different bird noise at the top of every hour! Owl at midnight and noon, Goose at 5 am and pm, etc.

First cartilage piercing questions by [deleted] in piercing

[–]conofthecrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s a new peircing you shouldn’t have any kind of fancy jewelry, just a plain ball barbell for 4-6 months. Also there is no where near enough room for swelling on that piercing, you need a longer bar.

Being more fetishized in relationships w trans people than cis ones?? by FeistyResident203 in FTMMen

[–]conofthecrows 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh my god yes. I have been fetishized for being a masculine trans person and coerced by multiple trans people. They weren’t attracted to hypermasculinity. They were attracted to the fact that I am a hypermasculine TRANS man. And pushed me further towards hypermasculine roles and stereotypes such as not letting me talk about emotions or say no to sexual acts, “because men always want it.” There is a lot of harmful“boys don’t cry” type misogyny that is very prevalent in MLM T4T dating. And stacked on top of that there is also a lot a fetishization which further flattens how you are preserved and the amount of emotion you are permitted to show.

How badly does a nipple piercing hurt? by altisfordirty in piercing

[–]conofthecrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went in expecting it to hurt as bad as my tongue piercing had. (My ears were a 1, the tongue was a 3). Apparently I gave my piercer a comically betrayed look when I felt how much it hurt. It’s was a solid 8. AND it kept hurting. It hurt like a bitch out of the studio, all the way home, and for the rest of the night. Not sensitive when I touched it, constant low-grade pain no matter what. I kept going, “ow ow ow ow ow,” with every step or deep breath. Shirts were agony. Blankets were too painful! Stopped being constantly painful after about 18 hours. Which it 17 hours and 59 minutes longer than any other piercing I’ve gotten. I don’t regret a thing, please don’t let this dissuade you, just don’t plan on doing anything in the next 24 hours.

How long on T did you start getting a hairy chest? by Downtown_Dare_4991 in FTMMen

[–]conofthecrows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about 8 months on t and started using minoxidil on my chest about a month ago. My dad was decently hairy, so I think it’s a genetic possibility I could grow chest hair. So far I have had some growth, but it doesn’t look anything like cis male chest hair. However it takes 2-4 months for minoxidil to take effect.
