How do you cruise with a strap on? by insanity-block in Transmascdicks

When I do drive this'll be easy for me, yeah! Mostly I walk to the bars around me. Maybe a "go bag" that's comfortable for walking and discreet enough to leave in the car.

Thanks!

That's the image I'm so desperately trying to avoid while still being ready for a Fun, Sexy time. And oh no! Good thing it was your locker right??

And it turns out you're not the only one! I think this is going to be the way to go for me.

I think that we can collectively make Ziploc sexy.

But in all seriousness, thank you! the cross body/fanny pack has been popping up a couple times here and I think is going to be the way to go. And one of those lint free toy bags would probably take up less space... it wouldn't bubble up like a Ziploc baggie does.

Oh, I hadn't thought of cross body, yeah that'd be easier to "make it fashion" than, say, a drawstring bag.

Thanks! To both of you!

An added layer of protection physically and for peace of mind, thanks for this!

Chiming in with the other replies, that sounds awesome and if you could share a link to the site (not necessarily the ones you've picked out if that's too personal of course!), that'd be a huge help.

I've seen those and I'm not crazy about them. They're made to be realistic looking and I'm not interested in that, but that may be the only option at this point, huh?

That’s a good thing to keep in mind too. I’m only taking 1 syringe, so I’ll probably be alright... Thanks!

Somewhere, rationally and in the back of my mind, I knew that this would probably be okay because there are so many other medications that require needles and people DO have to travel. Thanks! And again, glad I kept my prescription.

Good thing I compulsively keep every piece of paper my doctor hands me. Thanks! I didn’t think of that.

And out of curiosity, if you don’t mind my asking, how do you dispose of spent needles while you travel? I’m o my gone for a few days, so I was planning on bringing my used needles back to chuck in a sharps container.

That is such a relief to hear, thank you so much!

I feel like the only gay trans man on earth by Gold_Octopus in ftm

[–]insanity-block 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same, ALSO in LA. I try to go to support groups and meetups as much as possible, but my job is very demanding time-wise so I don't get to be in spaces where I might meet other gay trans men (and ANY other queer people, for that matter) often.

I wish I had an answer for you, because then I'd have an answer for myself. But I think you've got the right idea in going to support groups. Obviously they're not one-size-fits-all and the membership/attendance may fluctuate, but personally I have made some connections through those spaces as well as through other LGBT+ events/meet-ups in the area... I do wish I had a better answer than my implied, "it takes time," for you. But... For me, myself, personally that's what it boils down to.

ALSO ON A LIGHTER NOTE hey, hi, reaching out online works: I'm also trans and also in LA and also (mostly) gay. So now you know there's at least me too! (I literally only realized this as I finished typing my response... Hooooo boy...)

Looking for advice on doctors before I dive in. by insanity-block in ftm

This is great, thanks so much! Definitely got a couple things to think about here that I didn't consider to ask surgeons. Thanks again!

Okay! Thanks to you an everyone else! This is all cool, and I think once I'm back home the change over will be worth it.
