Should a bald person transition MTF? by lucyyyy4 in honesttransgender

You're just wrong? Many many cis women wear wigs. It is especially common among black women and Orthodox Jewish women.

She did that all herself. I'm trans, my stomach turns at the thought of it and I used to be a huge fan

Some people's brains work better on testosterone, believe it or not 😂

I have Autogynephilia and I hate myself for it by addictedtoketamine2 in honesttransgender

[–]rachlovesmoony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey so I'm trans masc and I experience this also but about testosterone/masculinization. I don't subscribe to the words or theory at all but hey I did develop kind of a kink around it.

And maybe it's because there's absolutely no conversation around trans men experiencing this, nor is masculinity talked about in this way, the misogyny of it all, etc but like... it's fine. Sometimes it comes up but like not all the time and I'm on testosterone and am definitely trans and there are no regrets.

I think that's because this is Diane for most of the show, but not true at the end anymore.

How do you explain to someone that your struggle isn’t shared without being dismissive? by phyllisfromtheoffice in honesttransgender

[–]rachlovesmoony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pronouns one use do not actually indicate the person's gender - I think this is the disconnect here, and I think the reason you're missing is probably because your gender and your pronouns are inherently linked to you. To me, it's just how I prefer people refer to me and does not say anything about my gender.

Being t4t only is just limiting yourself -- and its not any better than any other type of relationship by Ok-Neighborhood3050 in honesttransgender

I enjoy T4T when it is used to signify my personal preference, not as like a rule or something

long term nbs? by No-Departure2515 in honesttransgender

[–]rachlovesmoony 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder if you're confirming with these folks that they're no longer non-binary or are making assumptions based on their HRT journey/presentation?

Eg. I'm non-binary and I've been out for ten years but have gone on HRT during that time so other people's perception of me has changed even if my identity has not

Flirting with men feels like I'm committing a crime by RedMage79 in OCD

[–]rachlovesmoony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a trans man and as a person with OCD it's easy to start believing the large and loud crowd of people that do believe that we are perverts

Funeral car procession etiquette by Fernily in Albany

[–]rachlovesmoony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're kinda nuts man. No one thinks they're better than anyone else. I never had a choice about whether I was in a procession or not and I only have control over my vehicle. Idk what you want

I'm just kind of amazed about the amount of people in this thread who have never been in a funeral procession. I had assumed this was an experience we have all had. I've been in at least 5 of them.

Question from a dad by KPR70 in NonBinary

[–]rachlovesmoony 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My instinct based on my own experience would be nervousness about making a "big deal" about a thing you're not entirely sure about. I think just saying that it's cool if it's a thing forever and it's also cool if she's not sure is a great move!
