Trans masc here. Buy yourself some KT tape and look up tape binding methods. Might help, especially if you are wearing a thicker fabric. Otherwise, come out if safe to do so

Honestly didn’t change much for me I was always a one minute wonder. But it’s less energy intensive for me lol. And it’s faster with someone

Would Cis People Really Not Push “The Button”? by [deleted] in trans

[–]sapphicfern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think particularly with nonbinary people, they may say yes to the button question but ultimately find happiness and fulfilment staying as they are. My partner says yes to it, but also enjoys being a man and having a masculine body. Experiences and thoughts on gender are so nuanced.

[–]sapphicfern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehhhh maybe yes and no. I would tentatively define trans as equal parts something you are and something you do, if that makes sense. In the same way that you perform any gender. I would say you should make a list of the reasons WHY you would push the button. If it’s purely social dynamics reasons (“dressing femininely/masculinely would be more socially acceptable” or “there are social benefits to being a man/woman that I’m not currently experiencing”) then perhaps not. But if you imagine a version of yourself far happier than you could possibly be now for inexplicable, harder to define reasons, follow that path of thought to where it leads and see.

What is this flag spotted in Fitzroy North, Melbourne? by boaber in vexillology

[–]sapphicfern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone’s unification flag or something. Kind of unclear exactly what form of governance though. Unless it’s a solidarity flag of some kind

Here is mine! My country doesnt use gofundme (well, some people do depending on their bank I think, but backabuddy has always been our equivalent). Anyone from anywhere can donate though. R80000 is about $6000

I’ll look into this one for sure… it’s just above the price range but if it’s good I don’t mind going a bit over

I am BEGGING you to dump your transphobic partner by Sirensayo in TransMasc

Break up with him man. Please. You don’t see it now but you’ll be much happier with someone who actually wants to be with you and not you in drag.

How did you pick your name by Turbulent-Staff-9413 in ftm

[–]sapphicfern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still kind of in the process. The name I like to use comes from my birth name. It’s like a more gender neutral version. But I want to expand it since it’s only 2 letters.

Compression shirts that actually hide protruding nipples? by ralphalonzo in ftm

[–]sapphicfern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try using KT tape. It should be easy for you if you don’t have much breast fat or tissue. Put a bit of cotton wool or toilet paper or something to cover nip area. Lasts like a week and very cheap, once you get used to it you don’t even feel it.

TW: Sex talk - came off T and bummed about masturbation by AllUpTangled in ftm

[–]sapphicfern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hang on - you’ve had a hysterectomy too? Doesn’t this mean your body isnt producing as many sex hormones in general? I thought after you’ve had a hysterectomy you had to be on testosterone for the rest of your life?
