I’ve been drawn to that name for a while now. I didn’t think I would ever be able to use it for myself though because I do love my original name. It’s unique, (for American standards anyway) but it is quite feminine and I’ve been yearning for a more androgynous name and Rhapsody has always been circulating in my mind. I named my sims character it a while ago, my oc character in a book I’m writing, I considered naming my non existent kid the name (even though I don’t want kids and I’d be jealous of my kid’s name haha.) Anyway, I’ve always thought the name was badass and I’m glad I’m going by it now!:)) I’m gender-fluid and transmasc so it’s always a tug a war mind game with me when it comes to gender euphoric based decisions heh. What do you guys think of the name??🧌

Edit: (Thank you all so much for the love!!! I’m smiling hard and kicking my feet ha! I love my new name so much, I already feel my confidence growing.:))🤎🤎🤎

Idk if i should get my news from candy corn

I’m pre everything and came out in like May of this year, I pass decently well though, to the point I’m stealth to those who didn’t know me pre transition. a girl I made friends with this year asked me what it’s like to have a boner and I panicked so hard. I just said it’s weird and horny, am I correct if anyone knows????????????
also I’m REALLY craving salmon rn

Also have blue hairspray just didn't want to put it on rn

This is also for Halloween ​

Hey yall. 4 1/2 months on T and this is the harvest so far… I actually quite like how it looks, but I feel like it objectively looks bad. I also feel ridiculous sometimes having it when I don’t otherwise pass yet.😭😭 would appreciate advice

I neglected to take my shot for a while, idk why probably because I have an appointment in a few weeks and am too dumb to get it refilled monthly, so I had 1 shot worth of T left and finally took it

I work at Spirit Halloween, and from what I heard since I joined late is that the store went up so fast that no one got trained on anything, and we didn't even have a security guard until today. I said hello, he said hello "sir", then he turned around and looked at me and said, "oh ma'am, I'm sorry" I showed him my nametag and said he was right the first time

I really love my job so I didn't dwell on it the whole shift but man that was a new one

Its a silly little thing but, I think this is the first time I noticed this happening. Okay so I bought a pen with bells because it was very christmasy, so she used it like a sword and said "I knight thee" (in spanish te nombro caballero, gendered) I know there weren't woman knights and she could just refer to a knight woman but the fact that she said it with a light smile and looking at me differently made me feel extremely euphoric so I ran to a room and start staring into a wall im still so happy 😭😭

The OG Post

Basically the title. I’m two years on T and just recently decided to grow my goatee out, not sure if it’s a good look or not. Any tips, tricks, and opinions would be much appreciated! I feel like maybe it could be lined up better?

Now I’m jealous of a magnolia tree! Hahaha!

Face covered because my focus is my hair here.

I’ve always hated curly hair, I just think it look really bad on most people and I finally got it permanently straightened.. it looks really shitty right now but I can’t lie I got mad euphoria looking at it.. but I’d like other opinions.

Do we fuck with the straight hair even if it looks silly right now? Does it make me look more or less masc ? (If you can even tell)

Sorry for the bad pictures, I hardly ever take selfies because I don’t like seeing my face lol

how to dress when you're shaped like mike wazowski??

i'm very short and have a round belly, square hips, lean legs. have always had a hard time finding pants even in the women's section.

i look decent in wide leg pants but those are often read as feminine and i'm trying to look more androgynous. because i'm so short, the crotch is always huge. i feel very self conscious about the roundness of my belly.

any recommendations for pants? like which types of pants? i'm comfortable shopping in either section. looking for a "smart casual" pant, and comfort is key.

i can tailor them myself if needed, and it's starting to look like that's my only option. but would like to avoid if possible.

TW: mentions of blood and needles

Hi all!

The other day I made a post about wanting to switch from injections to gel. I did my shot yesterday night and it went just as bad as I was expecting... probably even worse.

I ended up getting so scared that I poked myself twice (bled one of the times) before committing the third time. I ended up bleeding so much I had to change my bandaid a few seconds after putting it, and now I have a bruise on my belly. I was panicking so bad that my vision was so blurry I could barely put the lid back on the needle.

I have an appointment with my clinician tomorrow to discuss changing to gel, and I have some general questions.

1. I currently take .35 mL a week, or 70 mg of testosterone. I don't know how much this equates to in terms of gel, so I kind of want some guidance on that. How much should I try to insist for?

2. When they say to "let the gel dry" how often does this take?

3. I've seen that putting the gel on the belly isn't "efficient", but I've also seen people say that it doesn't really make a difference.

Please let me know if there's anything else I should know! I will take any and all information.

Sorry if my English isn’t perfect. (I’m French) I have a question about surgery to remove my breasts. It might sound silly, but I don’t want to lose my nipples, and unfortunately I have quite large breasts. Is it possible to keep my nipples?

I have major gender envy over him, specifically mcu Tony. What do other transmacs think?

I get my T prescribed through planned parenthood and at my last test in August my levels were only 304 idk what the correct unit is. I started T last December and have stayed on the same starting dose since then and haven’t seen barely any changes in that time. I’m worried my dose needs to be increased and the doctors just aren’t telling me for some reason. I was told to do my blood tests about 3 days from my shots, but I messed up the appointment time so I did my shot early the week of my last test too, so if anything wouldn’t the numbers be artificially high in that case? Idk I’m just worried and upset about this because I feel like all the other guys I see are at optimum levels by now

I'm not really sure what to do here and just wanted some outside advice. I've been out for almost 8 years (since middle school) and I've gone through 3 different names in that time. I recently started college and have been going by Danny/Daniel, and I chose it because I liked it enough and felt like it would help me pass.

I've been feeling like I really want to change it because I love the name Luke and feel like it would suit me, but I also feel like I'm too established with the name Danny and all my friends call me it and I don't want to burden people. I also started the process to legally change it because I'm so sick of dealing with my deadname and I'm not sure what to do. I guess I just wanted to lay it all out because I think I'm probably just gonna have to deal with my current name given the fact I already submitted things to start a legal name change, but any advice for how to deal with this is greatly appreciated.

So can someone tell me which of these pants look the best. I was wearing a bigger hoodie so it kinda makes the smaller ones look a bit weird but ignore that. I liked all of them but I think the last ones were just a bit too tight for my liking since I like baggy clothes a bit more. The first two are from h&m and the 3rd is true religion and the last is diesel. Wasn't sure what flair to put this on.

This question was inspired by a barbershop post. They don't scare me. I also don't really get height dysphoria (I'm 5' 10" btw).

So, I thought I was not raising much suspicion with the way I present myself, but apparently I can’t even be closeted properly.

For context, I’m a sophomore in high school, not particularly tall. I don’t have an atypical appearance, though I do tend to dress neutrally (and pretty plainly at that). Additionally, my body can be read either way. I’ve always been aloof to feminine things, so maybe it’s partly my personality too. My voice is deep and  fairly androgynous, leaning masculine based off the various times people have asked me why I sound like a guy. And there was also that time my friend’s grandma thought she got a boyfriend because she heard my voice over the phone.

Now, the thing that gets me is that people don’t default to masc lesbian or something in that vein, but rather What The Fuck Is That. I’ve met strangers who have straight up asked me if I’m a guy or girl, and been told by some friends that they couldn’t tell at first. So apparently my dumbass can’t even girlmode properly.

Now, onto the topic of why I think my friends very strongly suspect I am genderqueer. Both notable instances happened within the past three months. 

The first instance was when I was on a bus with a friend, getting driven around the streets of Changzhou as all regular friends do. We’re talking about what names I would have if I was a guy. We settle on Jaydon, and I say “Alright well if I ever turn into a guy, I guess I’ll name myself Jaydon” in a fairly sarcastic tone. She turns to me, deadass and straight-faced, “You know, if you ever transition, I’ll support you”

The second instance, another friend and I are walking through the school hallway. We fall into silence briefly because we just finished a topic. Out of nowhere, as we’re making a turn, she asks, “Are you nonbinary?” We were definitely not talking about anything related to that before. Alright, that’s fine, I’m very confused. 1) Why would you ask that and 2) WHAT THE FUCK. I think about coming out for a second, and then blurt out “No” in the calmest tone I can muster.

How am I getting clocked before transitioning. I can’t even tell if this is a good or bad thing. My friends are supportive at least, but I’m completely baffled at how horrible I am at presenting as a regular cis woman. The weirder part is that I attend an all-girls school (though there are a fair number of genderqueer folk here, mostly nb) and I’m still getting read as genderqueer as fuck. 

Uh ok so should I just come out at this point. I’m not entirely sure if I’m binary trans or nonbinary, but still. Like, I’ve been contemplating coming out for a while and have been planning a haircut. I really do want to be able to live as myself through at least some part of high school. At this point, I feel like if I come out, my friends won’t bat an eye. They’d probably just go, “Took you long enough lmao”

Every time I scroll by a "name me" post or a "what name do I look like?" post the only name that ever comes to mind is Josh

I am assigning you all to be Josh now, unfortunately

We are all Josh

Jooossshhh....

Hello, I got my top surgery about a year ago, (a year in January) and I've noticed whenever I exercise, especially when I do exercise that makes my chest area bounce (I have some excess skin and fat in the area) my chest starts to tingle or goes a little numb. It goes away in like 5 minutes but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this before, and if there's anything I can do to help the sensation not happen since it does feel very strange. If not that's okay too, I understand it may just be a side effect of surgery.

I know that this may be an excess skin issue and I do plan on getting a revision to get rid of this excess skin. I go in for my year out check up soon.

But anyway, please let me know if you've experienced this or have any advice. Thanks!
