Unusual situation


MisterJax

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. I'm unusual in that I am one of several personalities in one body and this body is AFAB, but I'm a dude. I am often the dominant personality so I'm out and about a lot. I definitely feel like I qualify as FTM. I think I could learn a lot on this site about how to feel more like me.

 

You'll notice I'm not a typical guy, I go for more of an androgynous 80s style because that is the kind of music I perform and listen to. But I definitely don't feel feminine when I wear what I wear, I feel like a rock god (ok...ok I WISH I felt like a rock god)

 

Besides music my interests include Celtic and Norse culture, cooking (when I can get around being too lazy) and going out on the town (thanks a lot Covid). 

 

Anyway, out of respect for another personality who shares this space I am not going to have any surgery, but I have a packer and I'm about to get my first decent STP device, and I can't wait. 

 

Also, if I have said anything wrong or inappropriate let me know because I am new to this.

Welcome to Transgender Pulse, MrJax.  What you said in your intro is fine - nothing inappropriate at all.  You may not fit the "usual" profile of an FtM, but you certainly fit in here as an FtM.  I welcome your search for more information as well as friends, and I encourage you to look around at any of the forums and post comments and questions.  We'll be here for you.

 

HUGS

Welcome MisterJax.

I do have a bit of interest in Celtic and Norse culture myself - not that I'm a scholar or anything tho.

It’s a pleasure to meet you @MisterJax. You look great. You’ll see that most of us here are not typical and I think that’s a good thing. Uniqueness is something we all share. It sounds like things are going very well for you and I wish you the best on your continuing journey. Thanks for reaching out here!

Hi MrJax!  I'm part of a multiple collective as well, except we were AMAB and we're exploring whether MtF transition would be right for us.  I hope that you find what you need here, and know that you're not alone!

Right now the system says you have 6 POSTS (not points) so your PM capabilities for the membership are yours now to use.  You should have an envelope icon at the top right of the Forums and the world is yours.  Just follow the Community rules and have fun.  Let an ADMIN know if you have troubles with any one you try to contact.  You can contact a person but they do not have to respond. I will send you a test message just so you can see the insides.

      I grew up with it, my mother's side were Germans.  I still like cabbage.  I make a sweet/sour dish with vinegar and brown sugar, add some bacon if you have it.  And in warmer weather, slaw.  I like that better if it's a few days old, and has worked off a little.

      Good Friday Morning    I will be spending a good portion of my day at church today.  I don’t know how any of my family would have been with me.  They all passed before I figured myself out.  I often think my mother and sister may have figured it out before I did but maybe it was just my depression that they saw.  I don’t know and never will.  My grandfather Young unconditionally loved me but he passed when I was 9.   Same with my wife’s parents, both gone before.  We’ve never had the greatest relationship with my wife’s brother but we do see them occasionally.  They words and actions aren’t always in sink when it comes to me.   Sour kraut or boil cabbage were never big even with my parents so that was something we were never expected to eat.  Nor was anything with mustard.  My mother hated mustard and it turns my stomach. My wife tried to sneak it into things early in our marriage but I could always tell.  She stopped after a while.   well I wave to go get ready to go to church.  I have a committee meeting at 10 and then we have a Good Friday Service at noon.   Willow

      Good morning everyone,   @KymmieLI hope you're misreading your bosses communications. As you say keep plugging a long. Don't give them signs that you're slow quitting, just to collect unemployment.   I have a few things to do business wise, and will be driving to the St. Louis, MO area for two family gatherings.   Have a great day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good morning everyone, TGIFF   It seems like I am the one keeping or shop from being the best. According to the boss. I don't know if my days are numbered or not. But anymore I am waiting for the axe to fall. Time will tell.   I keep plugging a long.   Kymmie

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.
