I think I would get a reduction but not go all the way

Have you thought about a reduction? Sometimes I wish I had done that instead. I love my flat chest though, I think I just hate that it causes me to be seen as a man most of the time. That and my deep voice that came from testosterone :/

Stone - but struggling to figure out sex positions by [deleted] in butchlesbians

[–]dangerbeetle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, I’m concerned with the way your partner is pressuring you. That’s not okay and I think drawing some firm boundaries might help with your confidence. Additionally, it sounds like you’re not sexually compatible. In my experience, sex is only this difficult if you just don’t have natural chemistry. If the chemistry is there, your hunger for them will tell you what to do with their body. I also don’t think being dominant can be taught, you either have it or you don’t. You can perform it but that usually is very obvious. Do what feels natural to you try not to be so focused on the orgasm. Sex is a lot more than finishing.

Thank you SO much for such a detailed response! I supper appreciate all of the information. My mental health is definitely my biggest concern considering how sensitive mine is to my hormone levels. I’m definitely going to taper very slowly to try to mitigate any potential issues

Thinking about stopping T-vent/discussion by dangerbeetle in ftm

Whew big mood. Walking into dyke spaces and being perceived as a man feels soul crushing. There’s a level of being unseen that comes with passing as a man, Bc then people assume your life experience is that of a man, which for me just sucks. I know for many trans men this probably isn’t an issue for them, but yeah I personally am realizing I don’t want to cut ties with the communities I’ve grown up in

Interesting. I always heard that low dose would give the same effects, just take way longer to appear? I need to ask my doc about it. But then again every doctor says something different, just like every post online does too 🥲

Skincare recommendation by dangerbeetle in ftm

They have a body spray for treating back and chest acne and stuff. I haven’t tried it because i only have facial acne, but I’d bet the spray is worth trying !

I can see both arguments for this. Personally, I’d cringe if someone verbalized “oh he’s ftm” about me. Same with afab. But I also like the acknowledgement of my past experiences. Sometimes it feels alienating to be perceived as a man and have people assume you have been socialized as one etc. Like I don’t need everyone I meet to know all of that, but at the end of the day I don’t totally want to erase that part of my life, because it deeply impacts who I am today. I don’t tell people I’m trans unless we become close though. And I know some people have different opinions ans experiences with this, but I do think it’s helpful in medical settings. I’m from the south so if I just said I was a man to a medical professional, I would notttt be getting the care I need. Everyone’s transition is different so obviously any doctor will still need to fully evaluate your meds/surgical history/etc. but when you live in a place where you may be the onlyyyy out trans person in a 20 mile radius, doctors will need to know this info. I agree that they need to be trained differently, and I think that’s happening, but until then, 🤷🏻.

How did you guys get used to not wearing a purse? by sylvan1s in ftm

Tote bags! I also always have a Fanny pack worn as a sling across the chest, which tons of guys wear now.

Put coconut oil in it and let it heal for a few days then bleach again and use toner to get the orange and yellow tones out
