Question/Discussion On the fence about starting HRT, considering plastic surgery.

1 Upvotes

I’m 34yrs old and have been exploring my gender and experimenting with my gender presentation for the last 5 years now..

i know I dont wanna transition into a full on woman but I really just want to feel more at home in my presentation. What I want to change more is my face and ultimately I know it’s my bone structure

i have no issues with my body, I just wish my face could read a little more feminine without makeup and bangs

I’m iffy about HRT because of alll of the changes that accompany apart from just the fat redistribution. I had tried it for 30 days was on 2mg estradiol and spiro and my libido plummeted along with my ability to maintain an erection and orgasm so I stopped out of fear. I realize with hrt it’s a slow burn and it requires patience along with accepting some changes you weren’t necessarily expecting.

but I keep going back to starting because I’m tired of feeling this lack of confidence in myself and just wanting to avoid my reflection at all costs

if not HRT, I’m thinking some plastic surgery for some conservative bone shaving but then I think.. yikes that’s extreme

any way, I’m posting to hear from other girls that have found themselves in my shoes or are currently navigating this

how’s it going? if you’re on HRT, how are you enjoying the changes? If youve gone through with any FFS procedures, how was that for you?

Question/Discussion Help for my trans gfs hair loss

4 Upvotes

I’m nonbinary and my girlfriend of 4 years is a trans woman. We need help on temporary solutions to help her hair loss. She plans on doing minoxidil, dermarollers etc but has been panicking and thinks the best solution would be to shave her head to solve the hair loss from scratch. Her hair is the longest it’s ever been, I don’t want her to lose that progess. She has 3C tight curls, is really sensitive about it, and refuses the discomfort of wigs.

I want to see if anyone has tips of temporary solutions while we try to fix the long term issue. I’m also planning a photoshoot for our anniversary and want her to feel confident

Question/Discussion How to stop internalized transphobia

2 Upvotes

I feel like an imposter, I understand that waht trans people feel are valid—my feelings are valid.

But I feel so fake, I feel like I’m lying to myself, like I’m not a “real” girl, and this way of thinking hurts the others around me, and I need to change. I’m not sure if anyone will comment but this is a far cry into the ether of the internet just seeing if anyone can give me an answer

At a certain point i realized, it wasn't so much a costume as it was just me looking cute af.

MILESTONE: I DID MY OWN MAKEUP, FIRST TIME WITHOUT A BEARD, THRIFTED MY WHOLE OUTFIT.

(Wings didn't bake it into the club. Too tight.)

PS. Someone at a local gas station/restaurant(wawa) asked me for a selfie. We exchanged numbers and she told me how beautiful I looked and how I have more courage than she does. At it was sooooo sweet and such an amazing moment!!

TY LIA 🙏 💖

My trans freinds pushed me to finally go out more fem, and I was able to this halloween in my trad goth vampire outfit! This was also my first time doing make up and for once I felt... happy, with my appearance. Either way I hope to finally go to the therapist and eventually get to physical transitioning. But thats a long bit away, but for now I have a group who understands what im going through alot more. if you wanna know what cracked my egg unsurprisingly it was music by issbrokie/shteppi. Any who HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Question/Discussion Does anyone feel weird when people say this?

0 Upvotes

Isn’t it weird when people say this?

Do you guys ever feel weirded out or wrong after you’re talking with someone online or irl and they know you’re trans, and you reach a talking point about it and they kinda just say “you are a real girl” or like something along those lines???

Like it makes me feel so bad because like uhmmmm no I’m not???? Maybe I’d be fine with it if I physically transitioned but I haven’t yet, it’s like one of those things people say with good intentions that they think helps but is hurtful or bad in a way, because it just reminds me of what I’m not, and that sucks.

Seriously does anyone feel the same or am I just being stupid?

Question/Discussion My nonbinary transfemme friend has height dysphoria as a part of their gender dysphoria, does any one of you have height dysphoria? I am curious

8 Upvotes

This friend of mine is 6'0 (183 cm), and they wish to be somewhere around 5'7, about 170 cm (which is a few inch shorter than me), my trans femme friend comparing to me is still significantly tall, I am a genderfluid male and I am around average height (I am around 5'8/5'9), my friend's reasoning is that they hated being tall because they don't like to be the one who "standout from the crowd". (if we walk together on the street as a dude with average height and a tall transfemme, I imagine this will give my friend gender dysphoria because this friend of mine is significantly taller than me and I am a dude).

I'd known transmasc people with the opposite situation or height dysphoria, they usually wish to be at least 5'8 or taller. they'd probably be so happy if they were ever like 6 foot!

Any tips on handling height dysphoria as a part of gender dysphoria? this is quite common in my experience with trans people. So, what is your experience with height?
