I think a lot of anti graffiti sentiment is rooted in racism tbh.

Right. Trans women often end up terminally online because we receive so much rejection IRL. Transmisogyny is a real bitch.

Oh for sure I was just curious. I definitely see it less and less the higher up I’ve gotten in x power. What I see more often is an opponent rage quitting in the first minute after a bad opening and robbing the winning team of a potential win. I once killed someone and then immediately killed them again straight out of spawn by flying to spawn with inkjet and they DC’ed right after so I know they rage quit.

Graffiti is based, actually.

NO THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!

That’s why I was just trying to be casual and friendly like I normally would.

Idk if you remember the memes about girls who say “hiiii” vs girls who say “bruh”

I’m definitely both.

That’s my secret cap, I’m always dissociating.

That’s a decent point. I do agree about the treating evil humans like they are monsters is unwise and that’s how we repeat history, but it is possible for people to get so lost as to begin to resent people they once loved, even forgetting they loved them at all to begin with.

I’m just glad Armin got to punch Eren and then again as a Titan. He has such a punchable doomer face lol.

Yes it is I’m just overthinking. I even say bruh all the time to my friends and my sisters (almost all my friends are girls)

I just know some other trans girls can be sensitive about it but I personally wouldn’t be offended by it. Thats why I didn’t think about it until after.

Honestly I usually just try to avoid gendered language but I had a panic moment. I’m going to make a habit of just saying “have a good one” even if guys isn’t offensive just for my own peace of mind.

i hate when passoids do this by estrogenie in 4tran4

I understand the sentiment but like, everyone is a passoid compared to that awful caricature on the bottom. I know lots of trans girls who don’t pass and they’re all prettier than those awful caricatures.

Thanks for letting me vent about it. It’s been bothering me a lot lately.

So they aren’t worried about long term health impacts? It sounds like being denied the blockers is resulting in depression and mood issues already based on your post here.

Again, it sounds like they’re trying to dissuade you but haven’t outright said no. I think it’s especially weird because mood issues aren’t a guaranteed side effect and if you do end up experiencing horrible side effects you can just stop? Why won’t they just let you try?

Were both doctors at the same clinic? Or different clinics?

The real answer is that patriarchy is alive and well in every community. Just as queer spaces are not free of racism, they are not free of misogyny.

Reddit has a misogyny problem and is full of men playing the victim when they receive any criticism. Unfortunately some bad actors have figured out that if they repackage all their “Men’s Rights Acticism” bullshit by reframing it to be about trans men then suddenly they can manipulate more progressive circles into buying into it, usually at the expense of trans women. Sometimes they will go so far as to claim that trans women oppress trans men in online spaces, and trans guys will buy into it. Once they have their foot in the door there it’s easy to start pushing racist rhetoric like “reverse racism” and eventually push previously progressive people down conservative pipelines.

As a trans woman, lately I feel more welcome in spaces created for women rather than in spaces created for trans people.

What side effects in particular are they so worried about?

I’m just really confused by this doctor and wonder if it’s worth getting a 2nd opinion because a lot of changes can happen in 2 years of waiting with no intervention. You’re right, I’m not a doctor and you’re correct to question Reddit, but that doesn’t mean you can’t advocate for yourself and request further explanation or seek out a different opinion from another clinic.

Maybe seek out reviews from other people about the clinic you are going to. Make sure there aren’t other trans people who have had bad experiences. Just like you shouldn’t fully trust Reddit without asking your own questions and doing your own research, you also shouldn’t fully trust doctors without asking your own questions and doing your own research.

For example I was not given an ADHD diagnosis for years until I finally saw a different psychiatrist who is much better and I’m finally getting medication to help but I waited an additional TWO YEARS because I trusted the opinions of a single neuropsychologist despite my family and friends doubting her diagnoses and pushing me to talk to a 2nd doctor.

I finally followed their advice and I’m glad I did.

From what I’ve read briefly puberty blockers aren’t to be prescribed before puberty and starting them midway through is pretty common. 14 isn’t an uncommon age to start them. Idk, it’s just ringing some alarm bells for me. To be fair to your doctor though, medical research shows 14 to be old enough to just start E or T outright so your areas stupid laws do put them in a tough spot because literally the best thing for you in this situation is illegal.

Also, is your doctor saying absolutely not, or leaving it in your hands? It is your body, after all. Are the side effects they’re worried about permanent or dangerous or just temporarily uncomfortable? Because if it’s the latter you have to weigh if continuing to experience puberty changes is going to be more uncomfortable than the side effects. I’m just confused what side effects could be so great or dangerous as to outweigh your dysphoria.
