Tw rape

This is NOT a v3nt but a warning, as he rapes trans men and uses his platform to find and coerce victims. No fucking subreddit will let me post about this not a single fucking one, but he is a SERIAL rapist with multiple victims. I cannot use my public accounts to talk about this as it would put my life in danger. But do not engage with Chris. He gets off on online harassment do not FUCKING engage with him. I have receipts but am only comfortable sharing if you're a fellow victim or have been in contact with him.

He is dangerous. He targets ftm. There is no universe in which there is a healthy way to be involved with him at all, even over text messages. He is an extremely dangerous individual to the entire community and has even gone cross country to assault someone before.

I’d love to hear how you guys met your partners. I feel very isolated right now and would just love a little trans joy.

I broke up with my boyfriend to transition about a month ago and it sounds dumb but I really thought I would marry him. We were compatible in nearly every way and he was everything I was looking for in a person… until I transitioned.

I’ve never been super social and have never had a lot of friends and finding a partner like that again seems kind of impossible. Not to mention someone who would value me and be okay with me being trans.

I feel weird going to trans guy events because I still look/sound like a woman. But I don’t fit in with female spaces anymore either. So idk how to find community.

I’d love to hear about your meet cutes. I’m in a funk and please convince me I’m not gonna die alone lol

I’m a binary trans man. I’m 2.5 years on Testosterone and I’m getting top surgery in 3 weeks. I only want to be seen as a man. THAT is what gives me euphoria. When I see old pics/videos of myself, though, I wish I could have just kept being a girl. Is this level of grief normal?

I transitioned because I was miserable. I was Pretty as a girl, but I was miserable. I wanted to die. I TRIED to die multiple times. And now that I’m a man, I think I’m not as objectively attractive, but I’m a whole lot happier. I don’t want to die anymore.

I just wish that I was happy as a girl. I wish I could be happy in the body I was born in. Is that wrong? Am I wrong? Either for transitioning, or, I suppose, hypothetically, for not transitioning?

I want to hear these opinions before I “seal the deal” and get top surgery on November 3rd.

I have seen a few cis women post about this but I am having it to a worse extent lately. I'm only two months on T but its all going to my bottom growth. I am a lot more sensitive so whenever I chafe or rub on anything it is very noticeable and triggers the downstairs to get wet at nothing.

Sometimes when I walk back to my room, mostly after a shower, my down there will make audible noises.. I dont know how to describe it. Its like if you were to put soap between two chunks of silicone and rub them together. Sorry if thats gross LMFAO...

I'm wondering if theres a way to prevent this. Its happened pre-t when wearing loose fitted pajama pants but now its audible through my boxers and its entirely mortifying knowing one of my cis roomates could walk out at the same time and hear it. Sorry, just the shit I left in my britches..Nothing to see here.. /s

Nsfwish, nothing too explicit but mentions of sex

I feel like im so cooked bc of this, but I’m not into dudes at all and it kinda sucks when I can’t see myself topping during sexual moments during relationships 😭

And maybe i’m not searching in the right place (tinder fucking suuucks), but i feel like a good amount of straight women dont fw men not being dominant and it’s a lot harder to get into a relationship because of that, even if i’m not initially searching for something revolving around sex. Dunno if its just me having this struggle, but its a very annoying problem 😩

Im half a year on T now and i recently did a recording of my voice and it blew my mind, i didnt notice it dropped so much. The voice inside my head still sounds the same as before and when i speak i hear myself higher(?)

But on the recording i sound like a male teenager. Im very confused since i though even scientifically we hear ourselves deeper than we sound? Is this more of a mental "the brain hasn't caught up" thing or whats up??

I dont have irl friends or particularly supportive people around me so i dont have anyone to "report" to me when there are visible or hearable changes.

i swear i had doubts for some weeks but they’re completely vanishing as my injections goes. currently 3 months in. i asked for low dose because i wanted to be on the low for a while, especially because its complicated with my parents, but my body just absorbed that shit and my levels are above average. at first it scared me, the changes were coming way faster than expected. but now i dont mind, i dont care anymore. im so happy. i can already see scraggly chin hair, i got a little stomach hair (what i absolutely wanted), my muscles are bigger, my voice is deeper, i got a little mustache. second puberty has hit me like a train though and im constantly sleepy, horny, or hungry, but i dont mind. i got some mood swings but its fine. i know im doing the right thing and it feels so good. i have never been this confident in myself

NSFW WARNING!

Alright so, in your opinion what’s the best stroker? Texture wise, pleasure wise, everything. Personally I’m used to high stimulation toys because I use vibrators a lot so to be able to get off properly I need something with some good texture otherwise it just doesn’t do much for me. I’m 1.6 inches from growth as well, so what would fit best and give a good suction? Also are there any that look like normal cis male strokers? Like a mini fleshlight for trans guys maybe?

Meu nome é Diego, sou brasileiro, tenho 18 anos e atualmente estou terminando o ensino médio. Esse ano finalmente me assumi de uma forma mais séria pra minha mãe como um cara trans, meu pai ainda não sabe e duvido que vá saber tão cedo.
Escrevo isso, e peço desculpas se minha linha de raciocínio é bagunçada, porque me assumir pra minha mãe me deu esperanças pro futuro, um futuro que posso envelhecer fisicamente como um homem.

Passei anos da minha vida forçando uma falsa feminilidade em busca de me adequar, entrei em uma depressão severa e depois continuei me obrigando a me feminilizar nos relacionamentos que tive. Minha vivência como “garota” padrão sempre foi algo meio Carrie, por mais que tentasse ao máximo ser algo que não era, tudo parecia forçado. Plus, sou autista, então o sentimento de estranheza sempre foi amplificado.

Para os não brasileiros, atualmente no Brasil tem o perigo de um candidato de direita, Flávio Bolsonaro — filho do ex presidente Jair Bolsonaro que tentou dar um golpe de Estado — assumir, e estou morrendo de medo dos anos sombrios que estão por vir caso isso aconteça. Ser forçado a viver como uma mulher é algo que já sei que não vou aguentar por muito tempo :/

Peço desculpas novamente por escrever de forma tão bagunçada, estou meio maluco com isso e tá rolando o debate Lula x Flávio agora. Eu quero ter o direito de viver e quero que meus iguais e diferentes também o tenham.

NSFW warning, obviously.

I’m about two months on T this week and I always see other guys talk about how they were so surprised about how their sex drive went through the roof by now. The thing is I’ve always had a high sex drive and mine just, like…hasn’t went up? Maybe it was already as high as cis guys around my age but I’ll maybe get a spike for an hour where all I can think about is sex but that’s been the only real change I’ve seen drive wise. In all fairness people will say how they suddenly think about sex 24/7 and I was already like that so I dunno I kinda thought everyone was like that.

Did anyone else not feel their sex drive go up or only have it go up a little?

I finally got my top surgery date woo!

Provided all goes ahead, come the new year I will have some binders I don’t know what to do with. One has to be thrown unfortunately but the other two are still ok.

Is there somewhere I can donate them? They’ve seen decent use so they’re not perfect but they still bind. I don’t want to throw them out if I know they will be useful to someone else.

I am a disabled 24yo transmasc. I have been on HRT for 6+ months, and I am just starting to have a noticeable change. No one noticed the fat redistribution or the extra hair, but this I’ve been pressed on by my transphobic dad and stepmom for awhile.

I cannot get another job. This is the only thing that works with my mod/severe chronic fatigue, and other jobs I just can’t do with my level of fatigue and pain (I’ve tried and keep getting fired for subpar preformance). Disability is not enough to cover my expenses. This arrangement is the only way I maintain any independence.

I love how being on T makes me feel, it helps with my energy, mental health and dysphoria. But I also know my dad finding out would be life changing in a very bad way. I know this sub is all about protecting your safety, so if I do stop HRT, any tips for dealing with the resulting dysphoria?

Sooo, I have really sensitive skin but really starting to like the way tape looks and feels. Any suggestions? Recs? Maybe tips for skin care/health as well.

I’ve been questioning my gender for three months now, and honestly, I feel like I haven’t made any progress at all—it’s incredibly frustrating.

I’m 25 years old and was assigned female at birth. I’m a lesbian, and I’ve generally always leaned toward a more masculine presentation. Once, back in middle school, I even toyed with the idea of ​​being a man—going so far as to consider bottom surgery—but that was the most intense instance of such a thought I’ve ever had.

Three months ago, I began to seriously question my gender. It wasn’t triggered by anything specific I’d seen or encountered; the thought just appeared and refused to leave—even when I try to let it go, it keeps coming back.

The issue is that, over these last three months, it’s started to take a real toll on me. I’m overweight, and while I’m already unhappy with that, it’s gone further: I can’t even look at my body from the shoulders down. I dislike my chest, my curves, and my hips—not because of my weight, but because I feel like my body should be more masculine. (Even considering going on T by December of this year)

When I encounter sexual content—whether it’s stories, comics, or pornography—I feel uncomfortable at the thought of someone being intimate with me while I have my current anatomy. However, if I imagine myself with male genitalia—and I apologize for being so candid—I actually feel aroused. Furthermore, when I watch porn, I don’t identify with the woman; I identify with the man (regardless of whether he’s in a dominant or submissive role).

I’ve also been picturing my life in the coming years as the opposite gender. The thought brings me happiness—or, at the very least, it doesn’t bother me—but it also brings up a lot of concerns.

I’m short; I know short men exist, but I fear the bullying wouldn’t stop—especially since I’m studying diesel mechanics. I also worry that finding a partner would be even more difficult as a trans man. I didn’t grow up as a boy, and even if I were to start medical transition, will there ever come a point where I truly feel like a "real" man? It also worries me—or makes me sad—that I won’t be able to be a biological parent.

I feel very lost; honestly, I don’t know if I’m just confused and happen to be a masculine-presenting girl, or if I’m actually a trans man.

If you could share your own experiences, I would really appreciate it. 🫂

I've been told by a few people that going on T can cause brain fog and decline in intelligence.

I did some research and nothing was really conclusive, meaning the studies needed to be longer or in a different direction to prove anything for sure.

I really value my cognitive skills and brain health so, while I want to go on T, this is concerning to me.

So in your personal experience, have any of you experienced intelligence related side effects?

(I know ADHD can sometimes get worse, however that wouldn't pertain to my situation)

EDIT:

Wow, I did not except so many comments. Thank you to everyone who responded in good faith, especially those who shared their own experiences.

It seems to be a resounding NO on the idea that T negatively alters intelligence. My fears have been properly assuaged ha ha.

Also, I realize I may have come off as ignorant or insulting, but I can assure you I did not mean my question in that way!

I keep seeing people still give out outdated passing tips or give tips on what not to do but actually wont negatively affect your chances on passing. I think its important to note fashion for young men change over time and different hairstyles that are more traditionally male may actually feminize your face if you already had feminine features.

for example guys my age usually wear polos or fitted tees with baggy jeans or bootcut jeans, pierced ears, pierced nostril piercing, modcut, etc.

though it may change again in a few years. maybe different styles fit best to make you look more passing.

outdated tips rlly will just make you look like a tomboy IF it doesnt fit you. (i am a victim of the very baggy hoodie “wear your hood on 24/7” advice as a person who is built like a short stub)

hey fellas. im a trans guy or genderqueer or something and think going on T might be a step in the right direction for me but im also worried it might be a choice i’ll regret later if im wrong. it kind of has me lying awake at night debating what i should do. i was just wondering if anyone out there has any general wisdom (aside from speaking to a professional for advice because im considering looking into that already lol) because i read this sub often and you guys are pretty helpful. any advice/anecdotes would be much appreciated!

I can't remember the name of this content creator but he was a trans man that worked out a lot, had a very full beard and stopped HRT to prevent balding once he achieved his transition goals. I think he was in his early 30s? He had a very athletic body type, wide shoulders, muscles and was just very masculine overall, i remember he mentioned once that one of his motivations to keep working out is to mantain his masculine physique even with no hrt, especially since the body fat re distribution isn't permament. He didn't mind periods, they might be annoying but at least not dysphoria inducing for him.

My question is: would you do this? Be on hrt until you hit your transition goals, work out a lot, obtain cis passing, stop hrt and then just keep working out consistently to mantain that? thanks for reading!

Honestly not much of a post but hey. While going through the shitstorm that is getting temporarily cut off my hormones I realised how much top surgery is an important goal for me.

So I've decided im gonna start saving and researching how to get onto a waitlist to get it done after graduating. Cause of the nature of my majour I can't get it done till after I graduate(or at the very least not until after my 2nd year). Ive started door dashing on the side and im going to be starting the savings for top surgery B). Obviously when I am able I will get a better job but for the time being, income is income. This is honestly a nothing burger of a post but I wanted to tell someone.

Stay safe homies

Does anyone have intense pain over one year post op? Im 2 years post op top surgery double mastectomy and I get such bad nerve pain and pain in general. Lifting my arms, carrying heavy things, but it gets really really bad when I sit up for hours. It gets so bad when im driving. Just drove for 4 hours and it hurts to even breathe too deep. It’s burning and sharp pains. I just wanna know if anyone else experiences this

Edit: forgot to add what surgery I have

So, actually all my life I've never been much of a crier. Its never been the first thing I do, and its hard to break into a real sob. This has been strengthened by transitioning. I find it near impossible to cry. It does feel like a lack of a good release and I think I'm baseline more irritable because of it. Does anyone have experience gaining back the ability to cry? Any advice appreciated, Thanks.

this is maybe a long shout but does anyone in NYC have a gynecologist or similar who has knowledge/experience/maybe even specializes in trans health? plz don’t just say go to callen lorde i’d love specific doctors if possible. tyy

Hello all, I'm feeling very nervous after I just did my injection. I've been on T for over a year and never have I had this much blood squirt out after an injection.

When I put the needle in my leg it was definitely more painful than usual. I tried to relax and just continue my injection through the pain.

When I pulled out the need though a ton of blood started coming out. I grabbed a cotton ball because that was the nearest thing and I was a bit panicked. Usually a little blood comes out but this was low-key gushing.

The whole cotton ball turned red but after that it was a normal trickle and almost completely stopped.

I've seen similar posts where it seems likely I just hit a capillary. Is this likely what happened? Is there any way to avoid this in the future?

Any support is appreciated, I'm just feeling a bit freaked out and anxious atm, thanks!
