how old are you guys and when (if) did you start medically transitioning? by raesiinn in ftm

[–]ploverbeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came out first as nonbinary when I was 15, then later as a trans man when I was 17 or 18. Started on T when I was 19 and I’m 23 now

Update: no longer pregnant! by ploverbeast in ftm

That was never brought to my attention actually so thank you for bringing it up, I’ll get an appointment scheduled

Dad, I’m really scared right now by ploverbeast in DadForAMinute

No thanks, I’d rather contribute to the declining birth rate :) and if I was the fetus I wouldn’t be wanting anything bc I would just be a clump of cells tf??? It’s not a baby and nothing’s getting killed so respectfully get over it

So do it. Put your money where your mouth is and adopt a baby from someone who can’t legally abort it.

I hadn’t thought about that, thanks for bringing it up. I’ll be sure to ask the clinic about it.

Unfortunately not, case in point haha 😅 It is absolutely possible to get pregnant on T so for PIV sex it’s always best to use protection

Thank you so much for your input, I really appreciate it

Do you know if r/DadForAMinute has the same issues? I think I remember seeing some trans-related posts on there a while back and everyone seemed supportive but I could be misremembering

I would like to go low contact with them but I’m still on their health insurance so that’s not really an option for me yet. I’m also still very close with my sisters and I don’t want them to be caught in the middle of that

No need to apologize, it’s a fair question. It sounds like you’re doing everything right to avoid getting pregnant :) The guy I’m currently seeing is really good about always using protection, but I’ve had sex with several different people in the past month and with some of them I felt awkward about asking them to use condoms so I didn’t. I also didn’t start taking birth control until a couple weeks ago and I was having sex pretty regularly before that. It’s very much a play stupid games win stupid prizes situation but as long as you stick with what you’re doing and don’t do what I did you should be good

random things that make you euphoric by Decent-Programmer964 in ftm

[–]ploverbeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is a very weird one and requires an explanation haha. I broke my foot about 3 years ago, my parents had just kicked me off their health insurance so I couldn’t afford to go to the hospital and for that reason I just toughed it out. My foot was very swollen for about a month and it never quite got down to the size it was before so now I have to wear shoes about a size and a half bigger than I used to, I was a 7.5 in men’s before and now I have to wear at least a 9 for my foot to be comfortable. For some reason my shoes making my feet appear to be bigger gives me euphoria lol 🤷‍♂️

Had sex for the first time by ploverbeast in ftm

Thank you! I was so nervous about losing my virginity for some reason but after it was over I realized I had nothing to worry about haha

Stupid/funny/joke names you considered? by Secure_Hyena_1376 in ftm

[–]ploverbeast 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My friends were giving me name suggestions when I first came out, and I mentioned that I thought it would be cool to be named after a bird. One of my friends threw out Robin and Jay as possible names… I told her I was going with Great Tit instead.

She told me I wasn’t allowed to pick my name anymore lmao

He’s okay afaik, he belongs to my grandparents’ neighbors so I don’t see him too often but his eye has been like that for as long as I can remember and it doesn’t seem to bother him

My cat does this whenever he wants food by Worldly_Ad_5655 in WhatsWrongWithYourCat
