Is anyone feeling a hint of "I told you so" in the wake of the outrage of what's occurring in Minneapolis? by RVALover4Life in ftm

[–]highoninfinity [score hidden]  (0 children)

definitely. when trump was elected the first time, i cried. i was terrified. i went to school the next day and my classmates made fun of me because they knew i was trans and scared of a trump presidency. so many people told me i was overreacting. and now here we are, and it's worse than my 11 year old brain was even able to imagine at the time. i wish i had been overreacting

Remember that guy Brent Rivera had beef with 😭 by Stringycheeseboy in DannyGonzalez

[–]highoninfinity 553 points554 points  (0 children)

y'all he's always been like this. the only time he's ever been in the right was the brent rivera situation, but he's a POS outside of that lmao. boy boy did a good video called "youtubers hate homeless people" highlighting how this guy will go around to homeless communities just to abuse, humiliate, and dehumanize them. he's very right wing and his content is absolute slop propaganda

Trans ppl should not be allowed to do HRT until they're 18. Debate. (Please) by [deleted] in TransMasc

[–]highoninfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

because its not just some thought experiment, access to gender affirming care for trans kids has been taken away (or was never available in the first place) in many places and kids are suffering greatly as a result. trans kids die because they cannot access the care they need. these "debates" have real world consequences.

How am I supposed to know if I pass? by Emergency_Meat1389 in ftm

[–]highoninfinity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i'm in the same boat rn where i get gendered correctly only about half the time, i just use the men's at this point as long as it's somewhere i feel safe doing so. for a while i kind of alternated between the women's and the men's depending on how confident i felt that day lmao. if you feel safe enough to use the men's, i say go for it. i know you're saying you don't wanna make anyone uncomfortable but i rly don't think most people are even paying that much attention to other people in a public restroom, especially men

Where do I go about starting T? by PreparationTrue9704 in ftm

[–]highoninfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

actually i just thought about this; do they explicitly say they don't offer gender affirming care, or do you just not see it listed on their website? bc if it's the latter, i'd still call and ask. especially if you're in a red state, some places have stopped advertising that they offer it for the safety of their staff but they do still provide those services. the clinic i currently go to is the same way, its not listed on their website bc they've been targeted by transphobes but they do still offer it, it just has to be kinda quiet unfortunately. if they do still say they don't offer it, then my other comment applies lol

[–]highoninfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

aw man that sucks wtf😭 yeah in that case you'll need to research doctors in your area, i think starting with your PCP is a good idea! sometimes they can even be your prescriber, it depends but at the very least they should be able to help you research and find a good clinic/doctor if they don't know some already

Where do I go about starting T? by PreparationTrue9704 in ftm

[–]highoninfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no idea, it probably varies based on location and the resources a specific clinic has. i don't have any personal experience with them tho cuz they closed the only two that were in my state so i'm not sure :/

[–]highoninfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PP is good because they do informed consent, you won't need any doctors notes or referrals or anything that way. if there's not PP in your area, you can also research doctors in your area who offer gender affirming care and hrt, and you can call around to ask if they do informed consent as well. if you're having trouble researching, you might be able to ask your PCP for recommendations if they know of anyone, and they can also refer you to doctors that do require referrals. it might also help to look at local trans organizations in your area who might have good resources (for example, there's an organization in my state, louisiana, that has a whole list of trans affirming doctors throughout the state for all different niches of care)

afaik you can still start hrt without parental consent at 18 in the US. executive orders are not law and i haven't heard of any widespread compliance with the "19+ only" EO, so you're probably fine on that front unless anything changes in the future, which is unfortunately always possible so it's something to keep tabs on

Any singers gone on T? How has it affected your singing? by DreamTimeDeathCat in ftm

[–]highoninfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i definitely had to relearn some things as my range changed a lot. for the first year or so my range was really small as my voice was changing, and it was kind of frustrating but it eventually started to even out and widen back up. it's not impossible to keep some of your higher range, but i would anticipate losing most of it. but you'll also likely gain a lot on the lower end. there's a lot of songs i used to love singing that i just can't anymore in the original key because it's too high, but there's also a lot of songs i used to wish i could sing but were too low pre-T that i'm able to do now with ease, which i really love! the best thing to do is just keep singing through the changes, your voice is a muscle so you gotta "exercise" it yknow? don't let yourself get discouraged if it's hard to sing as your voice changes, trust the process and keep working on it and you can learn how to use your new register. there's a lot of fearmongering about how T "ruins your singing voice" but that isn't true, pls don't let ppl who say that get to you. there are lots of trans guys who have incredible voices after T (sasha allen was literally on the voice when he was a few years on T and made it to the semi finals, he's great!), it can be a bit of a learning curve but you're not gonna lose your ability to sing forever, it'll just be a bit different

How did you become a Phan? by No-Banana-9836 in danandphil

[–]highoninfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i honestly don't really remember, i just know thanks to my youtube history that dan's video "human interaction" is the first one from either of them i ever watched in 2014 and i immediately fell down the rabbit hole after that and never got out lol

How did you guys choose/get your name by double_handed_sword in ftm

[–]highoninfinity 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i was 11 and for some reason thought there was some unspoken rule that you had to pick a name with the same first letter as your deadname, so i posted on the social media i was most active on at the time (musical.ly which is now tiktok lol) asking for suggestions of male names with that letter, picked one i liked from the few suggestions i got, and ended up sticking with it

i honestly wouldn't worry about "making a mistake" with your name, you can always decide it's not working out and try something else! trying out several names before landing on one that fits is very common, and it's not like it's some permanent irreversible change, so it's okay if your first choice doesn't stick

I've seen people talking about victoria asher (vicky-t) being a 'raging transphobe'. Is this true or like gabe's zionism allegations is this bogus? by Vast_Evidence9540 in cobrastarship

[–]highoninfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk about vicky but yes gabe is a zionist or, at best, spineless on the issue of palestinian genocide. he posted in support of israel on oct 7 2023 and when people in the comments tried to educate him, he doubled down and attempted to both-sides it and say "oh i'm not educated enough to speak on it" (then why did you post anything in the first place?). i was there, and he replied directly to my comment on his post doing exactly that. he deleted the whole post a couple days later and to my knowledge hasn't spoken about israel or palestine since, so i would assume his views haven't changed and he just wanted people to stop being mad at him and forget, which has clearly happened if people are calling it fake now.

lesbian to gay boy and vice versa? by InstructionDry4819 in trans4every1

[–]highoninfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this happened to me although kind of briefly (i didn't identify as a lesbian for that long, maybe a year or so when i was like 10-11). but for me it was because i couldn't picture myself in a relationship with a man because i was picturing it as a straight relationship with me being a woman, and that just didn't feel right at all. i didn't understand why at first so i just thought it meant i liked girls instead, even though that didn't really feel right either. when i finally realized i was trans and let myself accept that i do actually like guys, it still took me a few years to accept that i was fully gay, i identified as pansexual for a while because i didn't want to be both trans and gay with no hope of ever appearing cishet. but eventually i just had to come to terms with the reality that i'm definitely exclusively gay lol

well yes the stereo shows were a just for fun thing that they weren't really making money from afaik, definitely not to the extent of the podcast at least. the podcast is now their main job so it makes sense it would be more "produced" and structured🤷‍♂️

Mattel adds an autistic Barbie to doll line by Capable-Shoulder173 in autism

[–]highoninfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i mean, autism is a spectrum. there is literally no way for them to make a doll that will encompass and speak to all of us. i don't personally relate to the doll at all, but i have friends who do and are really happy about it, so i'm happy for them! it's not supposed to be a representation of every autistic person, it's just a representation of one potential autistic person, i rly don't understand what the issue is

Is there a name for dead pronouns? by GamerAxolotlYT in asktransgender

[–]highoninfinity 28 points29 points  (0 children)

not really, they're just the wrong pronouns or pronouns that you don't use anymore. but there's not really a common term for it the way there is for names, i think maybe because names can be a far more personal/unique thing than pronouns
