#non-binary/transman

[genderqueerdykes]

happy pride to every male & masc queer who feels alienated from the community during pride month. many places are taking to create "she+" and "femme & them" type events that conflate non binary identities with womanhood without creating similar spaces and events for mascs & men, leaving many trans men and mascs to feel totally alienated because their is no designated day or space for them to celebrate. while it's great to celebrate femininity & womanhood, we should be celebrating queer manhood and masculinity alongside it. it's important to have groups and events for all members of our community

if you feel alienated because you don't fit into these spaces, happy pride to you. happy pride to the butches and lesboys who don't feel safe going to lesbian events because of this. happy pride to trans mascs & men who don't have a space to go or a day to celebrate themselves. happy pride to non binary queers, genderqueer people and gnc people who are not feminine or female and have nowhere to go. happy pride to masculine and male intersex people who can't exist in the spaces they want to.

happy pride to cis masc and male queers who feel completely estranged from the community. happy pride to trans girls who are also men who cannot express their manhood at the risk of people using it as a weapon to misgender you. happy pride to the bigender and multigender people who are have to prioritize their feminine or female identities in order to make other people "feel safe." happy pride to the genderfluid people who don't get to talk about their masculinity or manhood. happy pride to the masc gays who feel alienated

we deserve to celebrate ourselves as well. take care of yourself this pride month

Transmasculinity is beautiful

[bizarreaizen]

trans men are men, sometimes they aren't, sometimes they're more, trans women are women, sometimes they aren't, and sometimes they're more, non binary people are non binary, sometimes they aren't, and sometimes they're more and all of those are completely valid :D /gen

"who... who did this to you...?"

Lesbian complains about a straight man who acted as if he was a lesbian and harassed her to get laid, and later confirmed he was in fact a straight man. r/actuallesbians reacts as one would predict

the post got removed by reddit, even though the poster said nothing about transgender women

the poster is super apologetic

she even edits the post to clarify, gets downvoted anyways

... going so far to even changing her flair to "I'm an idiot" for complaining about predatory men without even mentioning trans women.

The next day, she makes a post to apologize for complaining about a predatory and maybe even dangerous man... no one even thinks about how she might be affected firstly by the incident, and secondly by the constant gaslighting and victim-blaming from people who should have protected her

What type of testerone hormone replacement therapy is for you? - Article Comparing T-gel,Cream and Injections.

The two of the most debated forms of testerone hormone therapy are the cream ( T gel) and the injection method. This article goes on in depth on these two methods. It compares their positives and negatives to provide a very in depth perspective so you can make an informed decision on the method that is right for you.

THRT gel or creams a topical (rubbed on your skin) application that contains synthesized testosterone. It's typically formulated with carriers that ensure the optimal absorption of the formula through the skin. The exact compounds vary from brand to brand however the primary ingredient is always testosterone. Once applied onto the skin, the testosterone in the cream is gradually absorbed into the bloodstream. This process mimics your body's natural rhythm of testosterone release, also providing a steady level throughout the day.

THRT injections usually contain testosterone cypionate, testosterone enanthate, or testosterone propionate suspended in an oil. These formulations are designed for intramuscular injection, ensuring that the testosterone is slowly released into the bloodstream over a period of time (can range from one to a few weeks apart) These injections require a prescription in Canada and the US, but can also be available at clinics both online and offline. They also may require you to need to make doctor's visits to either do your injection or teach you how (depending on what your health care provider says they want to do). Some people can learn to inject themselves, others may not feel comfortable and can go to their doctor or a clinic to receive your shot. Make sure you have been properly instructed by a professional health care provider prior to doing your own injections.

IS T Gel and T Cream the same?

Differences between the cream and the gel options are the thickness and potency of the actual product . They are both transdermal methods (using the skin to get to the bloodstream) of using testosterone and are very similar in how they are used and function and the are usually a used in a smaller area so less chance of transfer and more equal levels. Creams are becoming a more stable option over the gel. This is a decision you and your doctor should make as to which option is better, side effects can differ slightly from brand to brand.

This is a comparison chart I found to help you make an informed decision on which style of application is best for you.

The images are in order of left to right

Importance of Individualized Treatment: No single THRT method suits everyone. Factors like age, lifestyle, medical history, and personal preferences play a significant role in the best choice.

Factors to Consider: Consider your daily routine, if you are comfortable with injections, the dosage, and potential side effects.

Consulting with Healthcare Professionals: Before deciding on any method, it is very important to discuss options with your/a healthcare provider familiar with testosterone therapies. This can also include an endocrinologist.

Important: remember more is not better! Taking a larger dose than you are instructed to can cause adverse side effects such as irritability, mood swings, changes in libido, and even hair loss.

the sudden and intense wave of dysphoria that washes over my entire body whenever i allow myself to remember that even though i feel like a man when i wear my short skirts and my crop tops, most people will always instantly read me as Girl and in fact there are even people who know i’m trans and still have trouble seeing me as a guy because i dress certain ways sometimes. like i love wearing masculine clothing, absolutely love it!! and i know for a fact that i can “pass” (bleh) better when i’m wearing masculine clothing. but still, you would have to pry skirts out of my cold dead hands if you wanted to take them away from me!! i just wish, with everything in me, that the gender binary system never existed and i could just be whatever the fuck and wear whatever the fuck and have people assume NOTHING!!! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUUUUUUCK COLONIALISM!!!

What's a good gender neutral term for feminine hygiene products?

[redditreceipts]

that is the thing I dont understand about the sentiment that "nonbinary" actually challenges gender roles. non-binary is another gender identity. why would you identify with any gender at all? why would you not just say: "I was born a woman/man, and that is all there is to know"

i dont have a gender identity. i dont have a gender. there are gender stereotypes that are forced onto me against my will because of my birth sex, but i want to actually destroy gender and not just invent another category for anyone who does not fit the first two categories perfectly.

i want the categories to be abolished all together
