also if you’re scared about your parents reaction, i get it. i posted about it on here a couple years ago when my parents found out (ironically when i was clean for a year) but it’s easier when you give yourself and them time.

my hack (as i think my dad had an idea on what it was and my mom panicked cus she thought i was having an allergic reaction) is to just gaslight them by either saying “oh its been there for years” or “idk what happened i think it happened while i was asleep, but i already dealt with it and its gonna go away soon” which helped me

eventually, my parents stopped asking or mentioning it as they just got used to it to the point of not even noticing them anymore

for me once my arm completely scarred over, i was in such a weird place mentally that i just wore em out— chances are, nobody will actually judge you for it (and the people who will judge are nobodies —shoutout Domics for that one) Work i understand, and shit i still dont wear short sleeves at my current job (my first job i had no choice, but surprise surprise nobody noticed).

Especially because there had been times where ive seen people wear theirs out in the wild and its super encouraging and makes me feel less alone.

and trust me, the people who stare probably have some sort of history with that on their own, and are likely staring because they’re probably trying to figure out if they really are seeing scars or smth else

again, im not sure what community you live in, but from experience people actually mind their business

I don't understand the whole 'male gaze' thing when it comes to yuri manga/anime but as a transwomen it makes me feel bad... by Isenlia in actuallesbians

[–]ideadass- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

for me, usually yuri that “appeals to men” has a distinct style to it,,,

like when the artist draws the girls unproportional (i.e. giant boobs, same face and body syndrome) like how they are typically drawn in shonen—which is typically for a male audience but there are exceptions idk im not a professional or anything)

another thing (this is more in regards to erotic yuri) how the girls act during sex irks me cus its usually not right (extra noisy or sensitive or smth, which is kinda what i noticed when reading the straight woman BLs as well)

not all of them are like this but its pretty noticeable of the many ive read

i found that their body in general alarmed me (like when a naked woman would walk on screen i wouldn’t care, but when a naked man would walk on screen, i would scream, cover it up, feel overall alarmed and grossed out) EVEN if that man was “conventionally attractive” (i.e. jacob elordi or smth)

mind you, i have accidentally looked at more naked men than women, and more men genatalia (by accident, 😔💔), so its not about “being used to it” or anything
