Guest Ryan Michael

Hi everyone, my name is Ryan Michael and I'm a 23 year old guy from NY. I'm not really sure what to put here, haha. I'd been going back and forth between genderqueer and female for a few years, until I realized that it was okay to identify as male and that's how I felt best. I've told some friends and even fewer family members. It's interesting with family. Some are accepting, some are trying, and my mother just doesn't want to deal with it. I have support from friends and my Graduate Department though, plus my therapist, so that makes it okay. I'm really glad to finally be on the forums. I'd been using the chat and then finally remembered that the forums were out there :P , so here's to reaching out here as well.

It's great to meet everyone ;)

Hi Ryan :)

Welcome to Laura's dude. I am glad that you joined the forums too! You will find that that forums are a different pace than chat. On the forums you can read what others have said over a long period of time.

Make yourself at home Ryan. Know that we accept you :)

Love

Brenda

Welcome to Laura's, Ryan!

I'm glad you've already been to the Chat rooms. Its a great place, but I prefer the slower pace of the forums myself.

We have an FtM forum if you haven';t already seen it, but you are welcome to visit and post in any of the forums.

Please take a moment also to read through the Forum rules; there is a link at the top of most pages. We moderate the forums to keep

it within a PG-13 level and keep bad folks away from the members.

Make yourself at home, Ryan, because you are!

Hi Ryan,

<<curtsey>>

Welcome to Laura's Playground.

Please feel free to come over and chat sometime.

The Chat room does require another registration that is separate from from your forums one.

Please read the chat room rules before coming in, and expect a short interview with one of the chat room moderators.

One of the things that they will ask you is if you read the rules. :)

We have FTM meetings -Mon & Fri 8pm est, and you are welcome to attend.

We all look forward to seeing you.

Hey Ryan

Welcome to the family, I'm happy to see that you found your way over here. ;)

This is where all the slow typists come together. :lol:

I'm the slowest of them all even though Sally likes to disagree with me on that. :lol:

So being that you are accustom to the fast pace of the chat room, I brought you some coffee to help keep you awake while you wait for some of us here :D

Hope you enjoy your time here and feel free to post all you like. :P

      I haven't taken blockers since the surgery.

      Good morning   well its big bike week this week American/Canadian made. Followed almost immediately with metric bike week.  And let’s not forget the Myrtle Beach Classic golf tournament last week.  Our business has been very busy. So much so I need to leave earlier to make certain I get my work done before I have too many people in the tpstore and can’t get it done.   Hi ho silver and away   Willow

      I guess this was commonplace in females. But if your prostate gland is still in place this can contribute to urinal difficulties too.

      https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/05/15/peru-chooses-bigotry-medical-services     The Health Ministry tried to put the best face on this unscientific gibberish of a decree, but it won't diminish the harm it will do to the Pervian trans community.  They undoubtedly already suffer from severe discrimination and bigotry in a very macho-opriented society.   Carolyn Marie

      I'd never heard of it until reading this.  From the thread title I thought it had something to do with the state of Idaho.  But perhaps combined with something about Hobbits, which seemed odd.  My brain goes in weird directions.

      I had my surgery 11 years ago, and yes, I too find it much more of an urgent thing than it ever was before.  One possible culprit is going to be T blockers if you are still on them, also the urethral sphincter which holds the pee back is closer to the urethral opening now and more subject to stimulation. When we gotta go we gotta goooooo!!

      I notice that the Wikipedia article does not mention the U.S.A. which I can understand a bit.  The entire month of June here is Pride Month for all the organizations and is tied to the 1969 Stonewall Inn riots in New York and also our medical authorities are also not tied as thoroughly to the WHO as they are to the American Psychological and American Psychiatric Associations which write the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health which is generally in line with the WHO which does not play as big a part in our medical practices here.  The WHO does not impact us the way it does the other world countries which is why we are in the dark about the day.  Ironically though, one of the U.S. States is named Idaho which sadly is one of the most conservative and frustrating to the U.S. LGBTQ Community.   The day is international though in the sense of other European and Southern Hemisphere countries it seems.

      Hmm. Must have been that pesky 'International' word which made me assume that it was well known! I only became aware of it myself last year.   Brief history: May 17th is the day IDAHOBIT is acknowledged as it is the anniversary of when in 1990 the World Health Organization declassified homosexuality as a mental disorder. It was conceived in 2004 and first celebrated in 2005. It has gone on to include trans folk in 2009 and bi folk in 2015.   International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia - Wikipedia

      A year and a half post op. I've noticed that once the urge to pee hits, I can only hold it for about 15 minutes or so until it gets to the point where I feel like I'm going to piss myself. I used to be able to hold it a lot longer (as I  remember it).  I know my urethra is a bit shorter now, but I don't think it is enough to account for this. Am I imagining it?

      What a great moment @Vidanjali! It's always so cool knowing people are reading you in a way you want to be seen.

      It's also networking.  Sometimes jobs come along because someone knows someone else - these older people might know someone.  "Hey, Ashley," someone might say,"My nephew is looking for love. He likes tall women. Whatcha think? Can he call you?"   Don't discount their ability to match make.  It is about networking.

      He is simply doing to get more votes. He held a Trump for trans during his first run and found out the majority of his voters were against us so he simply followed the crowd.
