really fucking sick of seeing tik tok videos of people who are not on testosterone mocking people who are on testosterone. t doesn’t ruin your body. it doesn’t make you stinky and gross and angry and disgusting. y’all are just transphobic and think it’s ok because before you called us “monstrous” you said “trans femmes pretty :)”

i love cis people who question their gender, who sit down and actually think about who they are and what gender means to them. i love when they come out the end of it knowing that they are cis but with a deeper understanding of what that means to them personally, it opens up a whole new world of euphoria and self expression <3

In case anyone was curious what 6.5+ years post-op ALT phalloplasty scars look like 🤷‍♂️

My initial surgery was in November 2015. For folks who haven’t known me forever, I had a part of a text tattoo moved from one leg to the other in my skin graft ^_^

tbh i feel like the term transandrophobia doesnt really fit what youre describing, it seems like its not “i percieve you as a trans man and i’m threatened by that”, it’s “i percieve you as a confused woman and i am going to look down on you”. not to say that there isn’t severe, violent, and unique discrimination against trans men, i just think that when someone commits act of “transandrophobia”, what they’re really acting on is transphobia and misogyny, because they refuse to accept any trans identity and consider and view trans men to be women.

That's definitely a part of it, but that discounts the discrimination we face even from supposed trans allies who do believe trans people are their genders. There are people who act transphobically towards trans men fully knowing and believing they are men, and their transphobia is colored by their hatred of trans men for being men. I don't think it's helpful to say that all transmasc-specififc oppression is just "people see you as a confused woman" because it ignores the very real and very harmful transphobia we face where we get accused of being aggressive, dominating, oppressive men invading and controlling queer & women's spaces.

Additionally, even if it was just "you're just a confused woman", having a name for that is still useful and "transandrophobia" fills that niche pretty well.

What the hell is this thread that I came across

A classic sentiment ofc but the replies really show how much the community is blind to/ignores VERY COMMON acts of transphobia to transmascs.

“You won’t ever see trans men accused of transitioning to indulge some “sick fetish””

Gay trans men face literally face that all the damn time.

“Trans men don’t get accused of transitioning to access male spaces”

This is a joke right?

This part of the thread is op having no clue of the extremity of infantilization. Terms believing transmascs shouldn’t have their own bodily autonomy is not “empathy”, it’s viewing transmascs as less than and thus incapable of making their own decisions.

“They mourn infertile wombs and removed breast”

yeah whilst ridiculing phalloplasty and top surgery. And even if it was just mourning and no mocking, that is still just as bad. They’re mourning our infertile wombs because to them, we’re not accessible baby factories anymore, and with no breast, we’re not sexually appealing anymore. Again downplaying ensues.

Yea trans women are accused of erasing women, but here’s a shocker, SO ARE TRANS MEN, CONSTANTLY. Every time we ask to be included, we’re told to shut up. To me op is just living in their own world and refuses to step out of their echo chamber or something because this is one of the most ridiculous threads I’ve come of cross.

Viewing the oppression of trans men and trans women in this binary mindset is ridiculous. “Trans men ONLY get infantilized and trans women ONLY get demonized”

“Trans men ONLY get “empathy”, and trans women ONLY get mocked”.

The lack of nuance kills me

“Demisexual/romantic is how normal people experience attraction, you’re not special”

That’s our bad, I guess there’s been a misunderstanding

I didn’t realize:

- “love at first sight” is just a joke

- celebrity crushes are a joke

- characters from shows and movies being one’s sexual awakening aren’t actually a thing

- people don’t actually ask their friends to set them up on dates

- everyone had formed a friendship with their current partner months/years before ever viewing them in a romantic light

- the idea of dating someone you’ve been friends for years with is normalized and not viewed as potentially ruining the friendship

- that whole “I’m in love with X, but they don’t even know I exist” thing is made up

- the whole “X changed their look and I find them hot now” is also made up

- flirting with strangers isn’t a thing

- asking out someone you just meant isn’t a thing

- blind dates aren’t a thing

- one night stands are complete fiction

- no one has ever been turned on by a stranger

- “sex sells” is a complete lie, no one really knows why those women are washing those cars in bikinis, it’s a weird choice of clothes

so tired of the insistence that bottom growth is Scary and Bad. i've heard so many people thinking about going on testosterone but deciding not to solely because they don't want bottom growth because they've heard so much shit about it.

like, dude. it's not that bad. it doesn't even hurt for most people. idk where the hell that idea even came from, tbh. you want the truth? it's a bit tingly for a week, there's a weird ass sensation of just being Aware that it's Growing for a month or two, and then it's super easy to ignore. obviously there are gonna be people who have more pain than others, people who have outies so they gotta be more careful about the seam of their pants, but it's genuinely not as scary and bad as people like to make it out to be.

it's not like you're growing a whole entire dick. it'll just be like, 1-3cm on average unless you pump.

it's ok not to want it. but i feel like there's a lot of exaggeration being spread about the symptoms and results bc not enough people talk about it. i don't even notice it most of the time (after a year on T). do yall wanna know the part of T that was genuinely painful? THE VOICE DROP. feels like you've got a sore throat for ages. totally worth it, ofc, but stock up on cough drops and try not to overexert your voice while it's going through the initial drop.

and since i'm here, remember to clean under the hood if you do have bottom growth. that's another thing i never see people talking about.

end PSA. have a great day
