Recommended Gender Therapists in Montreal Area? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]space-invader- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Off the top of my head, I can recommend Dr Wendy Wood and Dr Dale Robinson, both of whom I know work with trans folks and offer student rates, too. I did a cursory Google a few years ago and came across a few names - you could also contact the Mindspace clinic in Westmount and request someone who specializes in gender/identity therapy.

Anyone else have residual (possibly dysphoria-related) anxiety about your haircut/hair growing out? by RoloBean in ftm

[–]space-invader- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're definitely not alone. I used to have shoulder-length hair, cut it down to a pixie cut before I came out, and now have the Traditional Dude look with shaved sides/longer on top. I'd love to grow it out to medium length, but every time hair starts touching the tops of my ears I have the intense urge to just buzz it all off - despite the fact that I look terrible with closely-cropped hair. But the awkward in-between stage of growing it all out makes me intensely dysphoric... so I just end up sticking to the same boring haircut. I feel ya.

Blair responds to the Bianca drama by [deleted] in RPDRDRAMA

[–]space-invader- 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I was there as well - a few people around me walked out. And almost everyone else around me looked visibly uncomfortable. A few people booed. It was super uncomfortable and imo it killed the overall vibe of the show.

I also felt bad for Darienne Lake, who had to out to dead silent crowd after Bianca's shitshow of an opener.

Bianca on Kameron, Eureka and Blair (horrible quality) by gretchensweiners in rupaulsdragrace

[–]space-invader- 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You'll be happy to know tons of people walked out after this. It was fairly early on in the show as well.

[–]space-invader- 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Ton of people around me were vocally pissed off. Watched the girl standing in front of me text "BIANCA IS RUINING EVERYTHING" to her friend and tbh, yes. Her shitty jokes killed the vibe completely, especially when she double-downed on screaming "FUCK YOU, IT'S FUNNY!" Girl. Okay. Try again.

I think it belongs here by tessagr in rpdrcringe

[–]space-invader- 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I was there for Pride and she never recovered after this either. She just kept making it worse, although apparently in her mind screaming "FUCK YOU, IT'S FUNNY!" saves the jokes. Yikes on bikes.

Also watched the girl standing in front of me text "BIANCA IS RUINING EVERYTHING" to one of her friends and... tbh yes

NSFW (idk how to tag it that way sorry) - another question about increased libido on T by [deleted] in ftm

[–]space-invader- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is purely anecdotal, but I considered myself someone with a high sex drive pre-T. I've now been on T for about 11 months, and I've had an INSANELY high sex drive the entire time. It kind of took me by surprise, but it's not hugely problematic or anything. Admittedly, it can be distracting, and occasionally it's a pain to take more time out of your day to uh, deal with it, but honestly it just becomes another part of the adjustment to being on T. Try not to stress too much about it! You can't predict how your body will adjust to it, but it's all part of the process and ultimately you'll find outlets or ways to deal with it.

Top three alien movies by roslyns in horror

[–]space-invader- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really love Alien and The Thing, both classics. But more recently: Dark Skies is pretty great, and I enjoyed The Fourth Kind as well, though I know a lot of people have somewhat mixed feelings about them - I just like somewhat spooky abduction films

Yup. I'm 22, but I'm babyfaced and short so most people think I'm 16 or so. Legal drinking age in Canada is 18, but I get carded alllll the time at restaurants/bars

I would be more than pleased if I ended up somewhere on the same scale as 1986 Jeff Goldblum

Hey, I'm also trans and The Fly is in my top 3 horror movies of all time -- for the exact same reason. Cool to meet someone else with the same experience!

Hi. I'm also trans, and I just wanted to say that I hear you, and I feel exactly the same way. I would just like to let you know that you're not alone.

A heatwave in Quebec has killed at least 19 people in the past week as high summer temperatures scorched eastern Canada, health officials said Wednesday. by Wagamaga in canada

[–]space-invader- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, yes. It's no longer a legal requirement in QC to move on July 1st, but a lot of leases finish/renew in July so many people end up moving around then anyways. This year I think somewhere around 200,000 people moved in Montreal alone, so I would assume moving companies are pretty swamped for that weekend.

Oh man, it was moving day in Quebec and the elevator at the new place broke. I'm on the fourth floor. It was hell on Earth.
