Thanks! Will add them
seems to have been cleaned up a lot
I still have a grudge against the Gender Dysphoria Bible until they clean up number 15. I really want to see it fixed, but it's still problematic if this stays.
CW: transmedicalism
So, it is literally impossible for a person to identify as trans and not experience gender dysphoria. By the WPATH requirements anyone can identify as trans. Ergo, the statement “you do not have to have dysphoria to be transgender” is a logical paradox.
When you put "anyone can be trans" right after that, you don't help the eggs who don't think they experience dysphoria and read the medical guidelines — they'll walk away thinking that sure anyone could be a trans person, but not them because they don't have dysphoria. (Even if you're a transmed, this should concern you because eggs don't necessarily know that what they are experiencing is gender dysphoria, even with the guidelines.)
It's certainly not a logical paradox because the condition of not having dysphoria does not imply not transgender.
Have any better links to replace it with? Also I think they have a github you can edit
I kind of hate that I don't. I almost wish the site didn't also have decent information so it would be easier to dismiss.
I'm just sharing in the hopes that it might save some trans person from being thrust back in denial by this site like I was the first time I encountered it
I cracked my egg a little over a month ago. Took four decades.
I read the Gender Dysphoria Bible from beginning to end pretty much. When I got to 15, my takeaway was the sense of joy I feel being femme and the despair I have felt my whole life trying to be masc, is gender euphoria/dysphoria. And that I should call the clinic and set up an appointment.
So, it helped me break through a lot of denial. And I do see how the part you mentioned could be problematic, especially if someone didn't read the document as thoroughly as I did. But I am immensely grateful that I came across it when I did.
I did find it useful the second time around, but I wasn't ready for it the first time when I couldn't even recognize those feelings as being gender-related at all. I was so close though... I could tell it was dysphoria :wail:
Maybe try to get in contact with them to edit the problematic bits out? They seem amenable. Report back if successful
Great work comrade thank you
So I'm still pretty early in my transition but this has been pretty valuable to me so far: https://www.transacademy.org/
Trans Academy is a VRChat group that provides help/community for trans people. Among other things, they do free bi-weekly voice training seminars (in VRChat but also streamed on Discord and Twitch) and make-up tutorials (on Discord), and the classes include content for transmasc, enby, transfem peeps. VRChat is free and doesn't require VR (using the desktop or android app), but you can also participate in most of the class stuff through the Discord.
Here's a video of a voice training seminar to give you an idea of what that's like..
This is their Twitch channel which often streams their events and classes.
Also, if you decide to join the Discord or VRChat group, feel free to DM me and I'll give you my username so we can link up.
