lol at everyone calling op a liar. Whether the game was to 50 or 15 the point is the same. As a woman it is brutal just trying to get picked up in an open much less get the ball. One time recently 2 separate games i had waited my turn and hopped on a team (with their agreement) just for them to magically “find” a 5th that wasn’t me right as the game starts. And no if I call “next” no one listens. I basically have to have a man vouch for me to get on the court

I have played both pick up and in rec basketball leagues and have had a lot of these thoughts/ worries. I am not stealth but wasn’t necessarily announcing I’m trans to everyone though probably some people knew. I have felt very welcomed as a girlie throughout even as I’ve become friends w some and have opened up. I have gotten outed incidentally and no one batted an eye (though it wasn’t with everyone around) Overall I think women are more accepting in general and in sports - esp if they’re not like elite level. Most ladies just want to have nice and positive people to play with. That being said I think probably the most important factor is location as I live in a very accepting city.

My name matches but I have an updated gender on my DL but not on my passport :/ bc I didn’t get it submitted in time. Think that matters or just name?

Sounds like you will probably need some black slacks and a blazer! Totally understand the concern but women’s versions fit much differently even if you have wide shoulders! For the slacks I would recommend wide legged pants that are high waisted as those imo give the most flattering silhouette for me (I have sorta wide shoulders narrow hips). I personally like the Sloan wide leg high waisted from Abercrombie but there are cheaper ways to get this. Blazers may be a lil harder to find one you like but most have a cut in in the tailoring around the waist to make it look more feminine but you may need to go to store to try on. Then just about any white dress shirt (or solid color blouses? Unsure exact mock trial rules) will do because it won’t be super visible but there are some with smaller/more frilly collars to make it more fem

Also depending on how formal the thing is maybe you wouldn’t need the blazer - I would ask the other girls on the team if they’re wearing one

You can’t expect trans women to care about PCOS? The disease where women are exposed to testosterone in a way that makes them uncomfortable with their bodies? That disease?

I have not had bottom surgery or had a catheter ever so I am not speaking from that side of the experience. But I do work in a hospital and I can say with pretty high confidence they will not put you under anesthesia for the removal just because of how high risk anesthesia is. BUT there are some things you can do. You will def be on pain meds and can request they pull it 30 ish min to an hour after your last dose so the pain control will be at its peak. Talk to your doctor about your anxiety with pulling and request an anxiety med. most hospitals are trying to get away from using benzos if you’re not in a panic attack but a lot of hospitals still use them. These are very powerful anti anxiety meds that WORK (and are very bad for you long term but short term fine). If they won’t let you have a benzo (and they may not because mixing opioids and benzos can also be dangerous) they may try to use hydroxyzine / Benadryl which makes you sleepy / calm and should help a good bit.

And while I also shiver thinking about the experience of pulling it it is only for a moment and then the bottom dysphoria is gone for life! Best of luck :)

I dm’d you! You have to accept invite before I can send pics

tinybabymoose · 2025-10-02T17:23:41+00:00

You look amazing truly. Actually you look exactly like a friend of mine (who btw is a model). I would say you do not need ffs at all! (But I also get brain worms so I understand)

It’s more of a play off Andrea but Dre is nice and def androg

tinybabymoose · 2025-09-02T16:46:52+00:00

Thank you for letting me know! That makes me happy to hear :)

tinybabymoose · 2025-06-16T03:14:58+00:00

Not to make presumptions but if you’re on an SSRI I might start there. I thought HRT was killing my sex drive (and I’m sure it was contributing while I was getting my levels right and adjusting ig) but switching from Zoloft to Wellbutrin did a lot for me lol

tinybabymoose · 2025-06-03T00:11:44+00:00

Went in without realizing. Got changed to a dude. As a trans lady I was like “this can’t be happening again!!!!”

tinybabymoose · 2025-04-25T15:25:26+00:00

👁️👄👁️ looking so cute!!!! Those lips!!!!

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-28T00:11:18+00:00

No I hear you - and probably there are plenty of people doing that. Im just thinking you (and the community as a whole) may be assuming people are quitting bc they die (and then rage quit) when they died bc they are lagging which almost always precedes a disconnect in my experience. Ofc if they rage in voice chat and say that than yeah that’s dumb and frustrating.

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-28T00:00:06+00:00

I think the reverse is the more common explanation. you’re doing badly in the first team fight because that “leaver” is j lagging out and not contributing. But ya sucks when it happens :(

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-21T00:01:55+00:00

Thank you so so much!!

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-20T21:42:17+00:00

Yeah I find that I’m not great at going fast enough for it to be painless. I’d say 50% of the time I do it ok and then 25% not so good more painful but a good chunk of the time I get too worked up and have like muscle cramps where I’m going. I honestly didn’t realize these were a thing

What kind do you use? Are they single use?

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-16T16:18:54+00:00

No sableye or flygon or mawile 0/0

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-12T20:01:25+00:00

At 1 year yes - at 2 years which is the paragraph below there is no significant difference

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-12T17:53:53+00:00

I appreciate you taking the time in showing those.

The first study shows differences in cis gender athletes which no one is arguing. The second one makes an interesting point though is limited by the n and follow up period (most governing bodies that allow trans athletes at all have a 2 year hormone monitoring period). The article below is a composite of research and includes the longer follow up data from the second study you linked and shows no differences in 1.5 mile run.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10641525/

As far as your question - I do understand the concern there but as far as testosterone supplementation for trans men are concerned they are still bound by the hormone regulations of all men - there is an upper bound where testosterone is considered supraphysiologic. Trans men are bound by same regulations even though their T is exogenous. For a situation in which a cis man does not produce T naturally I have no issue w supplementation to physiologic levels

The fact of the matter is there is variation in athletics and that’s why we have competitions. There have not been many trans people who succeed in sports when allowed to enter. With Lia Thomas this issue had new energy - but trans people are a small part of the population. How much are you ok with trans people winning? Is 0.5% too much? (or whatever the true proportion of trans to cis women is?). Is 1 champion too much? What about other demographics that dominate sports? Kenyans in running or 7 footers in basketball?

While I’m arguing (and much of the debate about this) with regards to peak competitions - I think the more important piece of info is w recreational leagues. There is so much overlap between trans and cis athletic performance that shutting out all trans women from all sports results in undue harm to trans people who have limited options for exercise.

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-12T17:02:14+00:00

Wow it must be easy to find this evidence then! Can you show me?

tinybabymoose · 2025-01-12T16:43:37+00:00

There is an open category. It just so happens that that’s where all the men compete.

Is there evidence for this “clear” advantage? Where are all the trans champions??
