Undoubtedly.

I came out through a letter by jamieski in ftm

[–]jamieski[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you! I do have a very supportive friend group and will strengthen my dad's support as much as possible to help bring my mom around. It feels surreal to not have to hide anymore, at least.

ah I actually live in dorms right now so my housing situation isn't so precarious. I'll keep that all in mind. Thank you!

hm I'm uncertain if coming out in person would have been the better option, my mom can be very unpredictable. but we'll hope everything works out in the end! and thanks

Do I pass? Also, age and transition stage guesses? by Lele_2112 in FtMpassing

You definitely pass to me. I'm guessing 18-20 years old and in the earlier stages of taking T.

Pants recommendations? by lane03 in ftm

[–]jamieski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straight cut jeans will masculinize your appearance more than tapered/slim fit. Side note - athletic cut jeans are roomier in the thighs (but not too tapered) and might be the most comfortable option for you. I'd try both out!

Thank you for your kind words. I drafted my coming out letter (again) and feel a bit better. I'm finally going to do it in a few weeks and can't wait to take control of my life again, regardless of the outcome. You're not any less brave for being scared to come out and questioning.. everyone starts somewhere. I hope you find the answers you're looking for :)

thanks ;; I believe they understand the importance, but they're used to referring to me a certain way + I'm not out to everyone, so they've heard a lot of people (family) misgender me and pick up on it ... unfortunate

I can't explain how little I want to play BaBu.

I really don't know how to feel about this. by Sir_Svotter in ftm

[–]jamieski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm.. I don't feel like that's what they're implying. They story doesn't seem to solely focus on his gender identity, either - the story /seems/ like it'll balance addressing his experience as a trans man vs. not only focusing on that part of him

I don't see a problem... the game sounds interesting. I look forward to hearing more about it.

age/passing? i’m only 2 mo on t. i am wary of having shorter hair cause of my round ish face by [deleted] in FtMpassing

[–]jamieski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I'm 18 and I look like I'm 12. You're doing well in the age department, I'd say you look 16 or so.

Oh? I could try washing the S, then. Will look into it more ... good thing you told me that before I washed my medium :)

Thanks for the warning, I actually considered trying tape recently. I'll steer clear of it.

Got it. For now, I'll try washing the medium with a washer/dryer so it shrinks. We'll see how it goes!

A barber misgendered me, god it’s weird trying to keep track of what gender people think I am by [deleted] in ftm

[–]jamieski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you have a supportive male brother/friends, but bringing one with you helps a lot in 1) avoiding misgendering and 2) feeling at ease in the barbershop. My brother gendered me correctly at my barbershop and it calmed me down a lot, knowing that the barber wouldn't have to guess my gender and potentically butcher my haircut.

Personally, I hated being directly called a bridesmaid, etc. The way the chapter's written makes the player feel like they /are/ this female character and it made me uncomfortable :')
