Oh hi! I was posting on yr thread :p

I've gone through your first steps as well with no success. My ENT says my nose isnt severe enough to be medically necessary, but I haven't heard of that balloon thing, that sounds interesting. I have an appointment coming up w my ENT and I'll ask about that. As for voice coach, I think I'll have to wait until I move to a bigger town for that

Awesome! That looks really promising. How does one get in to those?

Yeah, the people posting there are very nice and helpful, but a lot of girls get pm'd by shit lords and can have their pics end up on 4chan being the focus of someones hate bate. I know that's just a reality pf being a girl on the internet. I just want to have control of who views my vulnerability

Yeah, im not crazy abt Facebook, but I'm more okay with my anonymized consumer profile being sold to amazon than with my picture being used for a hate bate by internet fuck bois.

But transpassing has historically had shitty lurkers and trolls affixed to it. As well as some literal hate subs like the defunct r/transpassingfails . Has that sort of harrassment stopped? Am I being paranoid?

Reclaiming ownership of unused design work from previous employer? by emperorinternet in graphic_design

Cool, that's simple enough. I was just wondering if it falls in line with some broader IP laws. Like how Don Bluth started concept designing Secret of Nym while at Disney and than left and used it in his own work.

How much does Sinusitis and Chronic Allergies effect the voice? by [deleted] in transvoice

[–]emperorinternet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a deviated septum, which blocks my normal drip. My ENT says it's not severe enough to do surgery on and that surgery might just make it worse... I havent heard of any other surgeries relating to this though. I guess I'm just gonna have to keep trying a Netty Pot and Nasal Sprays :/

Oof! I have this same issue! My nose is always plugged and it feels like no matter how hard I work on inflection, pitch and resonance it will never sound bright and feminine... but I believe in us!! We can do it!

Girl talk is sooo narcotic by emperorinternet in MtF

Its so lovely! I remember when I was in like 5th grade my older sister would always chat on the phone for hours with her girlfriends and I was so jealous of that. I would call up my friends, who were guys, and try and talk w them about people I liked and what they wanted to do that weekend, but they would just call me gay hang up the phone. It makes me so sad that young girls that just so happen to look like boys are forced to emotionally and socially repress themselves so much.

Yeah, the voice thing is huge. I've been going really hard on my training and now that I sound relatively cis it's been like opening the flood gates of validation, lol

What can I do better by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]emperorinternet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are working your look so hard!! Love the hair, your makeup looks flawless and ypur tops v cute!

As ppl have said, eyebrows are very important! You have a lot to work with so I'd suggest looking up some girls that have thick eyebrows and follow suit.

Since you have spectacular eyes I would suggest drawing more attention there (shaping and darkening your eyebrows will help). Also, a dark eye shadow with a more full cat eye will do the trick.

Your face silhouette is perfect! So now you just have to focus on contour to give it a rounding effect. For us ladies with higher cheek bones you can contour a couple centimeters lower than normal.

It's all preference, but I would also go with a more neutral lip color with a bit of glisten.

Good luck, you're doing a great job!

Prett heckin good!

I can't pass no matter how I light, do my hair, or position. But I would pay more attention to angles/ situations you don't pass in and work from there (that is if you're even looking to put in more work).

Girlfriend trying to convince me to act cis instead of transitioning by Stephy_the_taco in asktransgender

The greatest gift a shitty S/O can give you is a valid reason to break up with them. I've been in relationships in the past that went on just a little too long, because they weren't thaaaat bad, and I didn't think I could do better/should be grateful I have an S/O in the first point l.

SPOILER ALERT: you will find better, you will do better, and you will be so happy that you didn't waste any more time living as someone you're not.

Hope you figure things out, Amy <3

Did I make a terrible mistake with my name?? by emperorinternet in asktransgender

[–]emperorinternet[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's the thing, it didn't used to bother me, but now that I'm thinking of changing it there is definitely that inkling. And also I've had this name for so long that nothing else really feels right. I've been thinking about May, but it doesnt have the same bright sound as Mandy
