So like how do you best come out to someone (when dating)? How early in the process? Like I'm semi-stealth it seems, so idk how to go about it😩

[–] Tomboymoder@hexbear.net 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’d probably do it early instead of potentially wasting time and getting attached to someone it might not workout with.
Plus if they are inclined to take it badly, they might read you waiting so long as a way to β€œmanipulate” them.

[–] PopPrincess@hexbear.net 18 points 23 hours ago

Yeah I think that's the best course of action. The first date is tomorrow so in any case I'll see how that goes before deciding on anything. I just hate that I even have to think about and deal with situations such as these😭😭😭

[–] amy_jmayday@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I like to name my characters in video games and ttrpgs the name I veeery nearly chose for myself, as like a little joke that literally only I find funny.

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 14 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

One girl in my Vampire group decided to name her character with a new name she wanted to try out. Turned out she really liked that name and now she and her character have the same name, which is confusing at times.

[–] retrozombi@hexbear.net 9 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I used a name I was considering for my Mage, but I decided to go with something different. Still like it though. That character's very special to me

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 8 points 20 hours ago

I'm at the point where i've used up all the names i was considering, so now i go with names that didn't occur to me until after my name change.

[–] AntifaSuperWombat@hexbear.net 11 points 22 hours ago

which is confusing at times.

Yeah, a real pain in the neck.

Aaaaaaand I’m out. secret-technique

[–] AntifaSuperWombat@hexbear.net 9 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Same. But I can’t do that anymore after over a decade because it’s now my middle name. I just love that one way too much to let it go to waste. Care-Comrade

[–] amy_jmayday@hexbear.net 8 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Hmm.. I've already got a middle name, but you've got me thinking there's nothing stopping me from having more than one thonk-trans

[–] Kuori@hexbear.net 10 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

i knew a girl in college with 9 middle names

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 7 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

I think assuming she had a first and last name, only the fifth middle name would technically be a middle namevery-smart

[–] amy_jmayday@hexbear.net 6 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

the mean, median, and mode names... is this something?

Clothes are fun. They should be free for trans people for the first few years of transition.

[–] MoonElf@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago

Clothes are soooo fun. This plan of yours is rock solid i'm behind it.

I could use about 10 new skirts at least.

[–] Yukiko@hexbear.net 19 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I somehow drummed up the courage to get fitted for a bra at a local boutique. Holy actual fuck what am I doing? I'm terrified.

[–] Tomboymoder@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] Yukiko@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's after work today. Gave them a call on my lunch break.

[–] Tomboymoder@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago

I've never gotten a bra. best of luck.

[–] MoonElf@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago (3 children)

How exciting!! A fitted bra is going to feel so special and lovely. I hope it's fun!

I hate the phrase "he or she" in academic texts. Like come on, we have a pronoun for when someone's gender is unknown or unspecified, its they. You don't need to do "he or she" at all. Its just worse than "they" in every way.

Now if your gender is "he or she", then that's a lot cooler

Luckily "they" is now standard in APA guidelines, but yeah "he or she" is also just so clunky, nvm the gender angle.

Just last semester I had one book from 2013 that used "he or she", and a book from a few years back explicitly instructing the reader to use " singular they" and m/f/x

[–] picklemeister@hexbear.net 17 points 1 day ago

i have never understood why people struggle so much with saying 'people' instead of 'men and women'. it's literally less words

[–] Azarova@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

It's so jarring and clunky too, it sounds awful. Somehow even worse is "he/she", which I've seen a handful of times.

Planned Parenthood follow-up went well. We upped my dose from 1 mg 2/day oral tablets to 5mg/week EV IM (keeping on the 50mg 2/day spiro for now). Really excited!

I've been thinking about what name to call myself. I have one name in mind that I really like, but it's literally my birthname with two letters added. And I don't know how to feel about that. And while it sounds good in most of the languages I speak, it sounds like it was ripped out of some fantasy novel in english, because that's the only context where I have heard the english translation of that name being used.

I don’t think I could’ve ever been comfortable with the feminine version of my deadname. I would’ve constantly had the feeling of getting deadnamed even when they get it correct.

Instead, I got both my first and middle name from Greek mythology, which could pass as fantasy novels, I guess. doggirl-smug
