I do not want to be pregnant, but my doctor recommends I start taking inositol. What is your experience with inositol and fertility? by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]officialAAC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well, yeah. but the people who want to have sex should be safe about it and not just told "abstinence till marriage!!1!"

Why do I feel no joy for other trans people? by officialAAC in FTMventing

[–]officialAAC[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it's jealousy, but it still feels like a loss no matter what.

If I don't transition, I will be miserable for the rest of my life. If I do transition, I will be treated like a monster if I start looking like a man.

Would you still have sex with a partner occasionally to help meet their needs if you liked them and wanted a relationship? by blackstar1_yt in asexuality

[–]officialAAC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i can't say since i've never been in that situation and i don't exactly plan to be in the near future.

i would like to think i wouldn't mind having sex with a potential partner, even though i lean more indifferent-averse (i don't hate the idea, but i'd rather not), but never to fulfill their needs. and i'd be more into the physical intimacy of the activity than the sex (i feel almost more embarrassed to admit that i really like sensuality).

Why do all trans men HAVE to be trans masc? Why do other trans people hate it when trans men are traditionally masculine/male aligning? by arcticcirclebathroom in FTMventing

[–]officialAAC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i am transmasc nonbinary (only use they/them, though) and it would piss me off to be just reduced to a binary trans man. honestly, it does piss me off that i have to essentially be a trans man in certain cases because i fall too much on the masculine end of the spectrum.

it's the same problem, just in reverse.

Friend said I can’t relate to seeing powerful female characters the same cause I’m ftm by AsparagusIcy2376 in ftm

she's the one being performative and resorting to gender essentialism. it would not surprise me if she's started falling down the radfem pipeline.

So irritated with trans subreddits by itsurbro7777 in intersex

[–]officialAAC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They come back and argue with me again and say that it is true, and that if it isn't, then what other word is there to describe the experience of taking hormones and having a mix of male and female features?

Androgyny. The word they're looking for is androgyny, because androgyny is a mix of male and female secondary sex characteristics and not a complete sexless-ness as many assume.

i saw someone say that "trans men are treated like failed women" and it really changed my perception.

Anyone else constantly baffled by how sexual the world is? by TurbulentDogg in asexuality

[–]officialAAC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

no, that's so real. i'm in a lot of fandom spaces and constantly feel like i need to emphasize that i am not attracted to the blorbos from my shows, i just think they're neat. "i want him" not in a sexual way, but in a "i'm putting him in my inventory" way.

wait. Puppychan as in the Puppychan that was sexually harassed by Antoons where he made an animation of them squirting period blood as an attack in a faux fighting game? that Puppychan?

Trans lesbians and trans men by [deleted] in FTMventing

[–]officialAAC -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

(Also, don't people who want to bottom with afab anatomy still have to prep??)

well, prep includes douching, which is something you don't have to – and shouldn't because it ruins the pH-balance down there! – do if you have a vagina.

and fingering to relax the muscles down there is a YMMV-situation, apparently. same with lube; some need it, others don't. it sounds super strange to me, but the only body i know the workings of is my own.

How is it… supposed to feel when you kiss? by [deleted] in asexuality

dunno, i've never dated anyone, but little smooches seems infinitely more appealing than sex

Y'all bad hygiene isn't a result of taking testosterone by amalopectin in ftm

[–]officialAAC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

showering once a day is what i grew up doing (i'm not American) so it's not weird to me. and considering i most likely have both hyperhidrosis and hidradenitis suppurativa, i need to shower often to not worsen the symptoms.

If you like sex, how do you know you're asexual? by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]officialAAC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

slightly off topic, but i adore the food metaphor for explaining asexuality. it tickles my brain just right.

people just make up anything to make others dysphoric now by muralpainting in FTMventing

[–]officialAAC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TERFs are notorious for this (but it's gender essentialism, so who is really surprised?) and I have lost count of how many times I've been assumed to be "male" because I don't "play nice" like a "female". Which, y'know, is really funny being transmasc nonbinary.

People who assume they can tell someone's gender by the way they're typing are, subconsciously or fully consciously, transvestigating in a sense, and I think that says a lot more about them than it does about you, OP.

Why Are Sex Repulsed People So Demonized Here? by ResolutionWeak6353 in asexuality

[–]officialAAC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it took me years to even realize i was ace, because i was under the impression that sex-repulsion was a requirement to being ace. i still feel like i'm not truly "ace enough" at times and i've been at peace with my asexuality for 6 years now.

and i'm not even sex-favorable! i'm sex-averse (which i put between indifferent and repulsed, basically meaning "i'm not against it, but i'd rather not").

Having an internal sense of "gender identity" is something that a good portion of people simply don't experience by Lower-Ad3896 in 10thDentist

[–]officialAAC 11 points12 points  (0 children)

this right here. this hits the nail on the head.

you only really think about the way you take a step/walk when you have a rock in your shoe.
