Wind Breaker S2 spoilers
My brother starting watching Wind Breaker the other time just telling me the premise that it was some fighting anime. Decided to join in, not expecting much, but it kept being surprisingly wholesome, so we kept watching it together.
spoiler the anime trope warning Was not expecting a show about an all-boys high school to suddenly have an episode featuring a character that seems pretty clearly trans (but its anime, so of course it does that "she's actually a boy" meme). Wasn't expecting suddenly have half an episode showing flashbacks to this newly introduced character struggling as an child with their feelings vs how they felt they had to present themselves for society and finding people who loved them for who they are. Some of it isn't relatable to me, but it seems like one of the best attempts in anime (very low bar unfortunately) to give our stories some attention. And its in some fighting anime of all things. :::

My pink areas on da boobs (idk wtf you call them) have been, swelling and shrinking dramatically depending on the temperature and I'm scared.
Also, I'm wearing a black trench coat that my dad used to wear, have ear length (black) hair and black shoes (no laces or velcro, those slip on types). It's kinda crazy how going on HRT has made me care way more about dressing nicely and grooming myself. And as a result, I now look like a stylised military officer. I just need boots to ~~stamp on the human face for an eternity~~ complete the look.
pink areas on da boob
Areolas, they're called!
hi everyonee
trying to post shit for the billionth time cause im shy and dead inside and trying to externalize and stop lurking
i am transfem but not on estrogen and i hate admitting that, i want to hopefully get on DIY in a good bit but that's another issue for me because of various factors ill probably mention later on, tldr distrust in myself, insecure about some other things
I am a ML and love my politics, although the past year has been rough on me and I, dont know, feel like I have lost my "spark". Feel out of life, trying to learn to be a person again, which is why I lurk here so much and read about how others do, feels like insight for me
other things about me, computer nerd, very sociable but awkward, have a loving gf that i love a lot
i find it hard to bond with people cause mostly everyone else has better things to do but id love to meet people i get along with on here (i talk too much if prompted)
also im very prone to selfhating and dysphoria like 80% of the time so yay
i want to hopefully get on DIY in a good bit
dm me if you ever need help with it
(same to @Thallo@hexbear.net, dunno your situation)
hii, i am also shy but mostly alive inside these days
hiii:3 good to hear hope to get there too XD
Hi,
I'm transfem and also not on HRT :]
I have a wife that I love a lot :3
also im very prone to selfhating and dysphoria like 80% of the time so yay
You'll fit in here~
I want to get on HRT eventually I hope once I move out, but will see, I'm like still visibly gender trangressive and I get shit for that lol but I really would want HRT probably I think
sex, hrt
I hope HRT just fucks up my libido cause I just hate the T libido, although this is probably me selfhating than dysphoric, dunno, always disliked it and found it "disgusting" and forceful on my partner, but I probably shouldnt view HRT as a means to this. I do find my current body repulsive but I dont know if the self hate stems from dysphoria or the dysphoria comes from self hate lmao
I had a discussion a bit ago with my partner about this and she kinda told me she felt objectified by me in certain instances as I'm just overwhelming with T libido and I'm trying not to self hate about it but... Dunno, sucks.
I want to qualitatively achieve a better point in life but I dont feel like "deserving of it" at all and idk brain pep talk is bad, as usual
Sapping my energy by debating myself about selfhate moment
Thank you for the welcome though ^^ i talk a lot sorry lol
Welcome!
spoiler
but I probably shouldnt view HRT as a means to this. As someone who is aroace and saw HRT partially as a means to that, after starting spiro (even with a lot dose of E that probably hadn't done anything yet), I decided that I didn't want to go back to T-libido - I still wasn't sure how much of the effects of E I wanted at the time. I similarly felt like it was a bad reason to try HRT (instead of just trying other medicines that are more directly aimed at suppressing libido), but I think its a perfectly fine reason. I think if you think HRT is a good solution to your libido, its probably a sign that its actually not *just *about your libido - I personally had a hard time just consciously guessing what I would or would not like and realized I just needed to jump in to test the waters.
cause I just hate the T libido
When I went on hrt and lost my libido, it was really nice at first. But in my experience, I didn't gain any "E libido" after (idk if that's even a thing). It has made things difficult for me. And I don't even have a partner that I need to attend. I just feel frustrated.
I'm not trying to discourage you. I wouldn't stop doing HRT no matter the cost. But maybe you should just know what the possible range of experiences is.
Friend of mine is on HRT and said that increasing the dosage made her gain a lot of libido back so maybe it is that? Unsure
Hmmmmmmmmm. I'm on the higher end of dosage, so it might be on a case by case basis. I'm also 90% sure temperature is playing a factor.
For me even without E temp always played a factor but dunno
spoiler
i dont like my libido cause i perceieve it as "manly" and imposing especially on my girlfriend as she is wayy on the low libido side (in her case id say its stress right now), and just makes me feel shitty like a demanding piece of shit
You're pent up because you have been lurking instead of posting
Stick around and I'm sure everyone here will agree you "deserve" to have good things~
I gaslight myself into thinking I:
- dont have things to say
- I bother others
- why would anyone read my shitty thibgs
dont have things to say
You will have many things to talk about if you just look at the random dumb incidents in your life.
..I guess there is the apprehension that I dont want to get "judged" in a negative sense, even if silly and if people are supportive
Nah, you ain't gonna get judged. I've said embarrassing as hell things on here and it's fine. You can check my post history as proof.
Just start out with small things.
Even if I say something I should selfcrit for the feedback is good after all I guess
Thankies:3
Thank you for the welcome:3
Saw the trailer for the new Sega racing game crossworld, calling it just that because while I love them changing from sega racing to sonic racing is dumb. Looks alright and
being there was cool but damn if Ichiban doesn't look so off model on the face.
Today has been much, much better then the last few days/week has been. Nothing too special happened, just feeling more normal I guess. Did get to see a friend for a few minutes at work which was nice. I know I'm not supposed to apologize but sorry if I worried anyone. Thank you for all the supportive messages.
Also a question about volumizing hair gel. It says to style my hair but I don't really know what that means π I looked at a video but a lot of the people in them had curly hair, is this just not meant for me? I have fairly thick, straight hair. Do I just like work it through and... like poof it a bit? I saw someone recommend it so I thought I'd give it a try.
breast growth
Nipples have been hurting a bit lately, just thought it was growth, no they are physically bigger so I need to swap out my piercings to something longer, too tight. Lol.
breast growth
need...
Iβm having pretty crazy growth for four months, I think itβs just lucky genetics, but I am also eating for two.
One of the things Im most looking forward to after bottom surgery is not having to tuck anymore. I tuck all day for these cretins and NOT ONCE has ANYONE ever said "wow I can barely tell you have a penis Terminal, great job" π
penis Terminal
I'm jacking in πΆοΈ
Is very lovely to do the final tuck.
I didn't even think you had a penis, you tuck so good.
CW boomer liberal parent things about transitioning
Both my mum and dad (who are divorced and never talk) have said they love me unconditionally and would still love me even if I was a neo-Nazi (dad) or a serial killer (mum). I get that compared to their parents and some other boomers this is "radical".
But both times I pushed back that comparing being a "trans woman" to something evil, is pretty fucked up.
Also at some point one cannot subsist on love by itself, I need respect for my personhood.
Man it's crazy I used to have no self-respect and now I am the number one respecter of myself. All it took was transitioning, huh.
spoiler
I have no idea how people don't hear themselves
I'm trans
Oh sweety, we'd love you no matter what horrible thing you are π₯°π₯°π₯°
like wow thanks. Do you think before you talk? I just have no idea how you can't piece together how that sounds.
yeah
Fortunately most of friends, colleagues and family my age and younger have just been like "oh cool, that's why you actually look happy lol"
(sometimes) cold food is the taste of freedom
I won't explain
celebrating my tranniversary by buying some winter clothes after work because holy shit i'm so cold. can't believe estrogen is making me re-evaluate my favourite season smh
On the flip side, estrogen please save me from being a sweaty mess starting at 60 degrees
I'm so cold too from estrogen, but the fits I can wear in winter! Scarves, sweaters, peacoats etc
