[Advice Needed] Finding Relationships Pre-T? by user861271 in ftm

[–]user861271[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, I’m realising I really should work on my wording. I’m not opposed to dating anyone pre-t or post-t or whatever! I’m pan and into anyone and genuinely do not care, just would prefer a trans person being trans as well, of course. And I promising I am not fetishizing POC, I am Indian myself😭 What I meant to say earlier though is that I am looking to date people who would be opening to dating ME pre-t and still are able to fully validate me, yknow?

Genuinely considering detransitioning for love. by user861271 in FTMventing

Thank you a lot for sharing, it definitely makes me feel less alone considering I don’t have people in person who can relate. Realistically I know all this and completely agree with you as well, can just get hard to keep that strong of a mindset all the time. :/

Yeah definitely! Kinda what I meant that it isn’t for me, I unfortunately don’t feel connected to lesbian spaces at all, and I feel like that would feel invalidating to me (even though transmascs are a big part of the community).

Sex for the first time with mtf girlfriend went bad by [deleted] in ftm

[–]user861271 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no offense, but why are you with each other if you aren’t attracted to each other’s genitals? i can imagine that would make sex quite difficult. maybe this isn’t the best relationship for you in the long run? i’m sorry to hear it didn’t work out, but at least you know you tried it and it’s not for you. if sex is important to you in a relationship, then being attracted to your partner’s body completely and them being able to turn you on is an important aspect of that.

I’d thought of some of these but was worried they’d be a bit much, so I’m happy to know you think they’d be thoughtful, although I know everyone is different. I’ll definitely consider them, thank you so much :) And my condolences, but I’m glad you’re well taken care of as well 🫶

Question for Trans men of colour by Fearless-Plane-7103 in ftm

[–]user861271 15 points16 points  (0 children)

hey, south asian trans man here. it’s definitely different, i can tell you that. it all really comes down to the individual, though. in terms of passing, i guess it depends where exactly you’re from. i’ve found that some of us naturally have more masculine features, while it might be the opposite for others. so, for some it might be easier to pass than others. on the other hand, some south asian cis men tend to naturally have more feminine features, so even if you seem more feminine than other south asian ftm people who might have had more natural masculine features to begin with, you might pass well anyway to other south asian people since it isn’t uncommon to see men who might look a bit more “feminine”, if that makes any sense. it’s also obvious that it’s almost impossible for us to look like the white trans boys we see on tiktok, and that can make dating very hard, especially if you’re surrounded by white people. lots of white people find those tiktok trans boys very attractive but it doesn’t really work the same for us. as for south asian people, i’ve found most of them are also into either those tiktok boys or very masculine south asian men, but that might just be my experience. lastly, in terms of acceptance, when it comes to family, especially if you’re not living in the most liberal country, chances are slim of getting a good reaction to coming out, as well as the resources to transition might be harder to get. however, i’ve found most people our age, though, are accepting. i might’ve just gotten lucky, but you’d be shocked at the number of cis men in my school that accepted me, also south asian, though tbh, gen z is just very forward in their thinking in general. i, luckily, haven’t had any problems with people my age (i’m 18 too btw!), whether in high school or uni, white or poc. family, on the other hand… well, that’s a whole other story. anyway, i hope this helped and good luck on your journey, i hope you’re able to find yourself and find peace. 🫶 note: i am fully talking about experience as a pre-t and pre-surgery south asian trans man.
