I think the girls post way more than we do. Or maybe there's more of them. Either way, I know the ladies better than I know most of you. So let's do something about that :P

Besides your gender or any trans issues, name ten things about yourself.

I'll start:

- I have four guinea pigs and I love them to death

- I work at a movie theatre and frigin love my job <3

- I love chocolate milk, even though Im lactose intollerant

- I love dressing fancy and I'm usually wearing vests and dress shirts and dress pants

- I collect stickers, I have a huge box full of them

- I can't stand wearing ankle socks, almost all my socks go al least to my knees

- When I'm nervous or thinking I chew on my bottom

lip

- My favourite colour is green, but I love most bright colours

- I had back surgery a few years ago because of severe scoliosis, so my spine is fused into one solid bone with metal rods screwed on both sides

- I love painting, especially on wood even though I'm no good at it :P

Your turn! :P

Not that we don't love you girls, you know we do. ♥

Okies...

  1. I have a cat and a dog, whom I love dearly, but am not to be trusted with pet fish or plants.
  2. I'm doing a PhD, for which I'm being Very Responsibly Studious and Not Getting Distracted By Teh Interwebz.
  3. I love chocolate, Earl Grey tea and bloody strong coffee. Yes, all at the same time, please.
  4. I also love piano and dancing, but suck something tragic at drawing.
  5. I don't like violence, and watch anything vaguely resembling bloodshed or gore through my fingers.
  6. Mornings are evil, and are the exception to aforementioned dislike of violence.
  7. I hate bare feet, but love socks (particularly ankle socks ^_^).
  8. My favourite colours are blue, black, purple, green and brown, in that order (though it's a very close competition). Or the rainbow as a whole.

  10. I have my tongue pierced.

Next~! ^_^

-I love vests

-I love cats!

-I also love bats, rats, snakes, caterpillars and other "disgusting" animals (but I hate most insects and the like)

-I like to cook and to invent small "recipes" because "boring" food annoys me (some of these are: "tiramisù yogurt", "fake almond milk" and various kind of sandwiches)

-I am kind of obsessed with sci-fi, expecially sci-fi movies (and I especially love the recent movie "Moon" because it's old-school sci-fi <3 I've been missing that in recent movies)

-I don't believe in soulmates (as in: I think you do not just "truly love" one person in your life, I do not think love lasts "forever", at least not for everyone, and I do not think this is something to dread or that it makes any relationship "less valuable")

-I think I'm into BDSM, but I never tried it with a partner yet.

-I don't want kids for a lot of reasons (top ones, apart from "they're just kind of 'meh' to me" are "pregnancy squicks me big time" and "I would make an awful parent". Also, the two points listed above this one are related reasons)

-I write fanfictions, but I want to write books in the future and maybe also comic books

-I have a terrible sense of humour

-I like trains

Good observation.

Testosterone->More transgenders as a percentage->Residual Male Privilege->All Your Base Belong to Us.

And you want to share lists of stuff that doesn't matter? *facepalm*

Focus. Dominate. Alienate.

On second thoughts don't bother. I hate all that.

Hmmm. Lists. This is hard.

1. I used to want to be a doctor.

2. I have a cooking thermometer I've never used.

3. I have a fetish for the number 3.

4. Catching bright sunlight in my eye makes me sneeze.

5. I had a dimple on my chin when I was a kid.

6. My favourite colour is black but I've started liking more and brighter colours.

7. I hate myself for having a pet Guinea Pig and neglecting it until it died.

8. I cried at the end of watching Babe.

9. I like trees.

10. I have small feet and hate my big nose.

It isn't just because 1) FtMs are less socially visible than MtFs and thus we don't necessarily know there are fora out there about the issues we have, whereas the girls are possibly better informed about it, which means there are more girls present here because they know Here exists in the first place, and 2) because, on average and generally speaking, the ladies here seem to be older than the guys, and thus more experienced (both in trans stuff and just life generally), and thus more confident and likely to post than the younger guys who (or at least I do) see a thread and think how similar it sounds to their own experiences but are somewhat more hesitant to actually post stuff?

That's what I thought, anyhoo. ^_^

Woo, congratulations indeed! :D

3) There is still a place in my heart for the Muppet Show

:wub: :wub: :wub:

Have you seen the YouTube videos of the Muppets performing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' and Beethoven's 9th/'Ode to Joy'? Don't drink anything whilst watching, rly. :wub:^_^

Extrapolating transgender population biases and internet population biases will give you a statistical picture that's hard to duck. This forum may buck the trend and your comment may help explain some of that. I don't really know and haven't been paying much attention to it anyway.

1) I have a dog named Taichi and a crested gecko named Yoshi (I think I may also have a thing for giving my pets Japanese names.)

2) I have a long "rat tail" that goes almost down to my butt. I've been growing it for seven years, and even though it sometimes messes with passing, it's become so much a part of me that I'd sooner cut my nose off than cut it off.

3) I collect stuffed animals (It's totally manly!) I have so many it would be easier for me to smuggle drugs into my house than another plushie, and I would probably in less trouble if caught.

4) I do Mixed Martial Arts, and I'm a blue belt (which is about three belts away from black.)

5) I love to draw, mostly I love drawing animals. I can draw people but I don't like to.

6) I have no tattoos or peircings, but I have plans to get some eventually.

7) I'm 21 and I don't have my full driver's license. Driving scares me. It makes things hard.

8) I am currently taking courses to become a dog trainer and a groomer.

9) I've been a vegetarian for about eleven years. Considering veganism someday.

10) I am a huge nature nerd. I can ID any snake species in my area, and I frequently spend my time outside identifying wildlife. I have worked at Wildlife Centers taking care of animals (I was once the primary caretaker for a rattlesnake, and worked with the birds of prey) and educating visitors.

1. I'm obsessed with the 1980s and love the fashion, music, cars, and pretty much everything else. I would love to collect vintage things from the era, such as old electronics, furniture, and especially synthesisers.

2. I'm highly sentimental; I hate seeing old technology and mediums (tapes, floppies, etc.) become obsolete. I feel things like records, CDs, real books, film cameras, Laserdiscs and even VHS/Beta tapes are more of an artform (due to often being more complicated to make) than their digital counterparts.

3. I play keyboards and am very into music, particularly '80s stuff. ^_^ I'd love to be in a band one of these days.

4. I'm a big fan of anime. (And, yes, I like Yaoi... even if that's more a 'girl thing' :D)

5. I've been on computers since I was little and have always loved video games. I have several systems ranging from the Super Nintendo to an X-box 360. (I love the Sims...)

6. I tend to calculate and categorise things to an anal extent. I collect large amounts of information on assorted topics, which finds itself all over my laptop in a variety of ever-growing folders. (I seriously need to sort things better! :lol:)

7. My favourite colour is black, but I also like blue and purple and even hot pink.

8. I'm writing what I hope will become a novel.

9. I count to the number 15 when I do things like brush my teeth; for some reason I love that number. :P

10. I get a stuffed animal for every birthday and I still have a tonne of action figures. I'm pretty immature, really. :blush:

      Shaving my legs (very early on) was the first BIG STEP in my self-affirmation.  It also felt Real and Natural ... Finally (after all my years with fairly hairy legs). My wife was shocked but I think she thought it was 'OK' as long as didn't go any farther ... well that wasn't going to happen.  It was actually Step 1 of many to follow.  I did feel the need to hide it from others but eventually didn't care.  And, men shaving their legs is much more common these days. Home IPL (laser) made the hair removal permanent over the course of a year or so.  Whatever was leftover has been reduced to peach-fuzz by HRT. I don't deny or reject all my years living in the realm of cis-males ... it was part of my Journey to get to where I am today.  But since committing to HRT and living in an environment and community that supports my transition, I find it difficult to go back into Boy-mode.  The times that I do have to do that ... I can feel the dysphoria rising up again.  No going back ... at this point.

      Congratulations @EasyE on your continued progress! I think it was about 6 - 8 weeks for me that I truly started to notice (and feel!) the changes.  They were not enormous (no pun intended) but I could notice my breasts were starting to plump up and my hips also.    fyi - I talked to my Provider a couple of days ago and based on recent labs agreed that I could start progesterone.  I did a LOT of research and after expressing any concerns with my Provider we both felt confident in starting.  I have been almost a full year of estradiol and I think my breast and other body changes have started to settle down.  Hoping the 'P' will give them another jump start. Thank you for sharing your progress.  I think you're going to be Happy with with the next couple of months brings

      I have this one particular antivirus with the VPN, I thought I paid for everything to be activated, but it turns out to be I have basic protection and they want more money from me to turn it on. I wished the store salesperson told me this soon, I would have brought something else that has everything in it, not half protection missing lol

      Hi @Mealaini - nice to meet you and Welcome! You have an important story and experience to share so I am happy you are open and willing to do that.  Also, I want you to know that this Forum was a very important part of my own Self-Acceptance and helped me navigate both my Progress and the Coming Out process to my wife, kids, and other family/friends.   It's not an easy Journey - sometimes it can seem slow and painful - but for most of us here, it's one that is essential to our Well Being.  I hope you have a similar experience as myself as you connect with others on this Forum and gain the benefit our each individual Experience and our Shared Humanity. Deep breaths ... One step at a time
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      It seems to me that antivirus software often acts like a virus.  McAfee is really tough to get rid of.  I got a laptop a few years ago that had it pre-installed.  Didn't want it, and the process to cut out every last piece of it took a long time.    As for VPNs, check out Ultrasurf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasurf   It may not be the best, but it is free and seems to bypass many government restrictions.  Its one of the few tools in GF's toolbox that I actually understand how to use.  As in...click the button!

      Hi Thea, I can relate to that, to this day I find video games that has female role characters in them, the ones that takes leadership.

      Divorce sux.  My husband has an ex-wife somewhere...far, far away.  I guess she turned into somebody completely different right after the marriage, and she divorced him after a couple of years.    My partner (his "Wife #1) married him pretty soon after that divorce, and I guess he kind of missed her back then, but that fades with time.  I wonder... is it harder to stay in contact after divorce, or harder to cut off all contact completely?    I was very clear with my GF when we got together years ago.... to choose me is to keep me forever, as a breakup (and heartbreak) would probably be fatal.  I told my husband and other partners the same thing.  Once I've made my nest, don't push me out of it.  I will curl up in a corner and make myself very heavy and hard to grab   Even GF has never said she wanted to get rid of me, although she gets frustrated with me sometimes.  I'm pretty sure I'm safe here.

      Odd that this topic showed up today. With the warmer weather approaching, I decided to do something about my legs. When I was in my twenties, my legs were quite hairy, but have become less hirsute as I age. I decided to mow the hair with my manscaping device to make eventual shaving less messy. This made me realize that due to a lack of limberness and practice, shaving might be a major undertaking, so today I applied depilatory from mid-thighs to my ankles (no hair on feet, fortunately). The odor wasn't as unpleasant as I expected (didn't use a common store brand*), and the results were gratifying. I'll try it on my chest next.   *I'm not sure whether mentioning product names is allowed – think of a musical by Lerner and Loewe.

      Hi all, Thanks for the warm welcome.     Yeah... The UK flag is a mistake.  I didn't notice it until I came on here today. I'm from Illinois, in the U.S.  I can't seem to find the way to change it in my profile.  Moderators?  Any ideas?     I met with my therapist today.  She thinks that this will be a good place to get started, and I am hoping I can find some support and offer support.     I'll be checking in from time to time :)

      Approximately 12 hours ago I created a post in the "intersex" forum, however on YouTube 17 people can relate to my story.
    • EasyE
      It has been about six weeks since I started the HRT journey. Today I officially "upgraded" to a new level of patch. I can't believe how giddy I was when A) the doc responded so quickly to my request for a new prescription, as I thought as I was going to have to wait a few weeks for my current one to run out; B) the pharmacy filled my new prescription so quickly -- in like an hour from when the doc emailed; and C) when I got home and put the new patch in place as quickly as possible...   Six weeks in and I would say it is subtle changes at best. But there are changes. They are just hard to describe... Sometimes I get these little rushes of emotion or mini-euphorias. Is that the hormones? I am emotional anyways, anger included ... I've noticed very subtle changes in my chest, like are my areola getting bigger? Or is it just my imagination? Are things getting smaller downstairs? Again, or just my imagination? I feel ... different ... yes a little more feminine...   I think it has surprised me how much I actually want a female chest. I keep checking it out all the time. That is brand new! But it's like I look down, notice what appear to be some changes and I say to myself, "This is going on with my body, and I like this! A lot!" Nothing ceases to amaze me anymore. I am such a mess, lol...    I feel like this patch upgrade is going to bring about more noticeable changes. Like I am really in the game now. Like the first part was just a warm up. Maybe not. But that's what it feels like.   So far, no problems with the patch itself (aside for forgetting a couple of times to take the old patch off when I put the new on one. I went a whole day once with a double-patch). Internally I think I am so ready for the next step... Externally, I feel like I am continuing to poke a hornet's nest, a den of scorpions and a mama bear all at the same time.

      That's a great question @Ladypcnj. It gives time for staff to review your line of thinking or replying. You're almost free to comment at will, reaching 5 posts.   Best wishes, stay positive.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
