Didn't have a chance to write up a detailed post, either on a fruit or the topic I was originally thinking about. I think they're neat and they taste good.

genital dysphoria postingugh. you know, i was really thinking that i wouldn't be getting this until years later in my life but recently i've been really, really looking forward to the idea of getting bottom surgery. my genital dysphoria has been getting worse and worse recently and i keep thinking that damn it would be really nice to get a pussy soon. I don't like having a penis :(

My sibling was telling me about a hateful bumble message they got from a man, I muttered "basement...", I'm pretty Dorleypilled.

[–] XiaCobolt@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago

I had of course explained Welcome to Dorley Hall to them 10minutes earlier, so they also agreed "basement"...

nsfw genital dysphoriagod I fucking hate having a dick. I naturally have a pretty darn high sex drive but every time getting off just feels so unsatisfying and disappointing cause I hate what I have, no matter what I do. I can't wait for SRS, but that's years away at the minimum and maybe never if worse case scenario. the wave of dysphoria and disgust is really getting to me, I know I'm not just going to stop masturbating for the next several years or anything like that so I've got to deal with the discomfort and dysphoria and never actually being satisfied. Shit suuuuuuuuuuckkkkkks

spoilerYea pretty much, basically always on the edge of tears with it. Hoping I'll be lucky and E will kill my drive completely because fuck this. Always dysphoric as shit and makes it so fucking difficult.

Also idek if I want a vagina, I can't imagine it, but I definitely do not feel comfortable as is.

spoilerI have such a weird relationship with my gock. I'm a top but I haven't had the greatest relationship with it for pretty much forever. I have no interest in bottoming without a vagina so I just got this mostly annoying thing that I have to make do with every once in a while.

[–] Boynomoder@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago (5 children)

dysphoria raving, doomer shitDid I permanently fuck my brain by deciding not to look at myself for years?
So many girlies make posts like β€œX months on estrogen and I can finally see(or start to see) a girl in the mirror.” Or β€œI can actually stand to look at myself because I can see the changes that are happening.”

I feel like if I look in the mirror after all this time and don’t see a cis woman it’s jover, not that I can be sure my brain would even acknowledge I pass if I did with my potential BDD.

There is a really cynical part of me that thinks estrogen isn’t β€œmagic” and all the baby trans will eventually be bitter and disappointed like me when that reality hits.
But I’m hoping I am just mentally ill and delusional.

spoilerI dunno, I ain't a baby trans and I like how I look and estrogen did do a lot for me. I don't think the trans narrative ends in inevitable heartbreak like you've suggested. I'm not saying I woke up one day and looked like a cis woman, I still get misgendered. It's very black and white thinking to suppose that unless one "looks cis" (whatever that means, I would interrogate what you consider the feminine archetype and think on its racist and patriarchal roots) then HRT is a failure. Plenty of my cis woman coworkers don't "look cis."

Also you've talked about passing plenty of time you silly goose :p You're short, you get passing points off being such a short girl.

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

response:

spoilerI don't think you've done anything permanent, I did pretty much the same thing for close to two decades. Looking back on photos I looked miserable and barely recognize myself in them still. That said I don't think I'd 'pass' if it was under scrutiny, but the estrogen isn't to blame for that, it's more skill issue on my part.

I feel like if I look in the mirror after all this time and don’t see a cis woman it’s jover

This really shouldn't be the goal, but remember that cis women can have things like PCOS. I see mostly cis women when I go to get electrolysis done for example. If the goal is blending in you probably fit in better than you think, and even cis women can fail to 'pass' with the unrealistic standards at play.

[–] PeeNutButtHer@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

spoilerHRT is just one part of transition and there's a lot more to be done. I'm in a similar boat to you where I've been on e for almost 3 years but I haven't really done anything else so I don't look like a woman to myself in the mirror, but I'm hoping that I eventually will

It's a long nebulously process that goes smoothly for some people and very rough for others, it's just luck of the draw (and also money, it goes soooo much easier if you've got money)

Estrogen isn't magic, is pretty good but not magic. And a lot of trans people do end up becoming disappointed, but that's just something to work past. Or at least I hope, idk I'm pretty doomer about shit but I've been trying to turn my perspective around recently. There's a lot of other shit to do besides just hrt. Like weight cycling, voice training, makeup, exercise, etc

Really voice is super important, it's often the "tie-breaker" if your androgynous and someone is trying to gender you. I should take my own advice thought and voice train, it fucking sucks doing but it needs to be done

[–] awth13@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

magicThe way I see it, HRT is magic but what it doesn't do is make you someone else. The latter part is what I see many people (including myself) struggle with. I used to hang out in voice training communities a lot and see so many people say "I seem to be doing fine and other people like my voice but to me it still sounds like the old me, what am I doing wrong", which seems absurd if you really think about it. Of course you are going to sound like yourself and, similarly, you are going to retain some physical features the "old you" used to have. You are you after all and not someone else, and there is nothing right or wrong about that, that's just how it be.

So when someone says (again including myself) that they will never look like a "cis woman", I invite them to question where they got the idea of what this mythical "cis woman" is supposed to look like and realise that this idea is fundamentally built from images of other people. The real worry, then, is expanding this idea to include yourself (if yourself wants to be a cis woman anyway) and HRT happens to help with that a lot.

Rizz update:

I shared some of my music with her, and she was really impressed. I gave her a few of the full files because she said she wants to work out to them.

She's been so sweet and nice... very damn appreciative of everything I have to say. She's such a calm, gentle, and beautiful soul. I'm nervous because I really really really like her, but my rizz always has me covered...

Things will most likely continue to go well. Sharing my music with her helped us to get a bit more into personal hobbies and stuff like that because we mostly talked about things like Palestine, communism, and veganism besides that.

Going to bed before midnight for the first time in awhile and am comfortably worn out from the gym and freshly showered and took all my supplements and have comfy PJs, wish me luck on sleeping well because goddamn I've been bad at that lately

i absolutely hate being this old and still completely and utterly single

i absolutely do not have the time or energy to even think about dating right now

catgirl-flop screaming on floor

Well, I thought I didn'tbhave the time or energy to start dating, but then I realized that it was such a priority to try to address my emotional needs that I made time and found energy.

Anyone else been using transfem.dev for matrix and having issues with performance?

see here:

https://girlboss.ceo/~strawberry/conduwuit.txt

I just switched over to matrix.org, feeling a little sad now though

[–] AshenWolf@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

Same, that's really upsetting. I switched to another homeserver using conduwuit, but it seems like synapse is the only option at this point. I have other accounts on synapse instances, but it's still upsetting (not to mention the tracha space and some of the rooms run on transfem.dev).

Also, there is no reason it should have been getting the harassment it got. It's extremely disappointing to see, and I completely understand why she had to leave the project. Hoping that she's able to recover from all of this.

Sure thing princess! I'm juggling irl how's that

[–] Disaster_of_Passion@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What are you juggling? I'm curious.

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I can juggle three of anything. When I was younger, I could three of anything and they didn't have to be the same weight or shape but now they gotta be mostly the same. 2 oranges!

[–] yewler@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago

Can the three things be three trans women and if so can I be one of them?

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

whining and being sad, talking about self harm in a way that's probably triggeringFeel so lonely and shitty and depressed about my situation. As far as being able to transition, having to transition at all, i know i don't really have the effort required in me anyway. Anyway just feeling shitty about the situation that's been upsetting me the last few days and finally snapped. i'm so sick of feeling like shit. Just using a rubber band so no scars so who even cares. not as satisfying or good but whatever. its pain which is good and what i want right now. i'm too stupid and cowardly and whatever else to fix my situation so we make due.
spoiler passive si god i want to wake up dead, i've been wanting that, i'm so sick of all this shit. Unfortuantely my "dying in my sleep" polan has not been working out for me and there's no backup. i have no way to move out and even if i did that only fixes some of it.

I can't believe this had to be me 😭literally why did i have to be trans. i am not capable of this, i wasn't before i cracked and i'm not now.

more self harmanyway going to go play some shitty game I barely care about and feel shitty and hope i die and think about how shitty everything is and how i'm an emberassment to everyone including me and how i should just kill myself already but i'm too freaked out by being gone to actually do it even though life is hell and i have no hope or anything for the future.

Sorry for being unhinged i'm sure i'll act normal again soon :) :) :)

Hung out with a few friends from work today. Was mostly nice but def felt like the odd one out at times. Of course, I was the only... "male bodied" person in the group and only out to one of them. She was also the one who said I'd be the person out of us to sit in the passenger seat of the Uber because the driver was a man. I guess I get it since I still look like a guy, but didn't feel great though.

I hope my HRT starts working better soon. I don't want to play act at being a girl and that's what it feels like I'd be doing if I tried to socially transition in the state I'm in.

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wtf that was kind of a shitty thing to say, trans people are more at risk than cis people. Your friend has some work to do and has gotta stop seeing you as a dude-lite. You're a woman
