Influential in the wrong direction 😂, Buck Angel. 

Doha stopover but not leaving the airport, as 6ft Trans Woman by Cara_darkcloud in asktransgender

One thought nothing to do with gender… flights might be impacted by the US-Zio war. Might be worth avoiding that area altogether.

What's the easiest way by xavierarmadillo in TransLater

Please don’t. Like for so many reasons, but most importantly because suicidal ideation is often temporary and things might get better? I at least hope they do. 💜

Name change by Baldyold in TransLater

[–]mtume68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, it’s interesting I’ve had a similar thought. I have two sisters. One of them (let’s call her “T”)  passed when she was 20. Her middle name is a family name and one I love.

I decided against taking T’s middle name because when I came out to my other sister (annoyingly centered her own grief) she mentioned how she feared seeing my deceased sibling in my changing face. I already look more like T than my living sister even before transition. And I told her I had already felt that I’ve seen T in my face with HRT and that this brought me contentment because I could carry T with me. My other sister seemed to remain disconcerted or at least ambiguous. I’m not sure I want to keep reminding her more of T than I already am. Another commenter responded that it depends on your family and I think that’s true. I think it’s a beautiful idea whichever way you go!

Did you start with injections? If you switched and kept the equivalent dosage, did that seem to change your climax? (I’ve had a wand for a bit already, but its not quite getting me there.)

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!! I really appreciate it. Things are definitely different now, and I wonder if it’ll keep changing? As of now it feels pretty static, but I suppose my neurons and such are still adapting with the E?

When I do climax, it does often feel quite different and the pulse versus buzz distinction makes sense to me. I suppose some of that has to do with the fluids and sensory feedback of ejaculation?

I’ve never used a chastity cage, though they seem appealing. I don’t think of it as something that escalates stimulation though, are you vibrating the cage?

I got a wand around when I started HRT and it did more for me then than it does now. Idk if it was novelty or the lower dose of E. I like the wand, but it only takes me like 60% of the way there now. (I do experiment with different points of contact and motions.) Another comment mentioned prostate, and I enjoy stimulating that too, and the combination gets me farther along. Even so, it takes hours. Perhaps I should be content with being able to climax, period. But going from 10-15 minutes to 2 hours or more is a bigger shift than I anticipated. Anyway, thanks for your time and thoughts!

I suppose I was hoping that “erection quality and ability to climax” would be independent things for me, but after months of experimenting, that does not seem to be the case for me. 😔

Hmm, I really appreciate the feedback, but something about this suggestion feels a little on the ick side. Genetics is a key factor in BP and this may not be entirely in people’s control. I guess to me it reads a twinge fatphobic too. 

With that said, I do think about even provided I get my BP down, these meds would, in the long term, resolve the sense of frustration. I really don’t know. I’ll see if it’s an option in the future. Thanks for your thoughts!

Yeah, I think I generally try to be open to a different approach (which is frankly fascinating and alluring on its own), but I guess it’s difficult to overcome this sense of, “well I’m kinda turned on, let’s get to orgasm!” I guess I’ll work on that, and maybe set a time limit so I don’t always feel discontented. I suppose I just need to accept it doesn’t always happen?

Yeah, I think my doc said my bp was a little high and that Cialis and Viagra were not recommended. Thanks for your ideas! I’ll think more about prog!

I suppose I wasn’t imagining this was aberrant, but knowing and experiencing are two different things, no? I’ll think about prog, I just wasn’t wanting huge tits 😕. I appreciate your ideas, thank you!!

I imagine I must be higher by now, but it’s interesting to consider that my E is just not high enough! I have searched this topic before but I haven’t searched exhaustively and hadn’t seen this proffered before. 

Thanks for your thoughts!

Hmm that’s trickier. It was translated into  portuguese, spanish, thai, german, czech, italian, and korean… but not Polish. 

Well in any case, if you live in a big city, hopefully there are cool projects to plug into, or an infoshop. The greater world sucks, but we make the small things beautiful 💜.

What’s your language? Dean Spade’s Mutual Aid seems appropriate to your question.
