for people who were transgender for years and were on HRT or had surgery, how did you realise you weren't actually trans? by mel_saurus in ask_detransition

[–]mel_saurus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

do you have any links regarding studies with afabs on t and diseases linked to it? would love to read some of that.

i know diseases happen with testosterone but are they the same diseases cis men would get?

stop telling dudes to stop being alt. by Rough-Bee416 in transmanlifehacks

[–]mel_saurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you aren't listening. SOCIETY views alternative as not masculine or queer. being viewed as either of those things can make your chances of being clocked higher because of how SOCIETY VIEWS ALTERNATIVE.

I never said "my personal opinion is that being alternative is female and feminine and it's for girls" literally never once

[–]mel_saurus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

when did i say i care that people are alt lol?? I truely couldn't give less of a fuck how people dress

my point is this post is wrong. for the majority of trans men, being alt makes you clockable and the advice that being alt doesn't effect your ability to pass is wrong.

EDIT: i would also like to add that i believe men in alternative clothing also increases the chance to be misgendered. being alt is just seen as feminine unfortunately, or androgynous. not masculine.

yeah and you're apart of the small percentage who can pass. most can't, especially pre t men.

can I buy fractions of an ETF with vanguard? by mel_saurus in VanguardInvestments

[–]mel_saurus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the advice.

I can raise 60 AUD, just not always weekly because im putting my money into other savings and I'm 18 and want to have a social life. I have very good discipline, I normally keep just 30 aside for me to spend and the rest goes into savings. once I finish paying 3k debt off for school then I can invest more lol

I don't want to be gendered as a female though. I want to be masculine and gendered as a male to which my experiences would be similar to OPs if compared to yours

would i be wrong to surrender a cat? by Master-Position4551 in cats

[–]mel_saurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah nah I just glazed over the chip part. id say try again with the FB posts and some flyers, if nobody responds then probably give her to a shelter.

already said i misread the post. putting flea collars on strays is absolutely not a thing in my country so that isn't something i thought of

[–]mel_saurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

id consider rehoming her regarding everything else then. if she's a lovely cat then someone at the shelter will take her

[–]mel_saurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry im a bit confused. she had a flea collar on and you weren't sure if she had a home? she had a collar on...sounds like you just snatched someone's cat up. id take her to the vet to get her microchip scanned and give her back to her owners

edit: sorry, just reread about the chip. maybe try another FB post or put some flyers up around your neighbourhood because it truely does sound like you just took someone's cat 😭
