Not a billion goals. Just. One. Goal.

Get this post to 5000 (I will change it to 10000 or 8000 maybe most likely only to 6k if i really don't want to do this, which I really don't, but I do update- I won't change the number at all it stays at 5k.) and I'll start worrying about how I look. I'll brush my hair. I'll wear nice, unwrinkled clothes. I'll start using those acne pads. I'll put more than just shampoo in my hair, I'll use product. I'll buy more clothes. I'll shave constantly. I'll also brush my teeth twice a day. Most importantly, I'll start enforcing the fact that I'm trans.

UPDATE- 7 THOUSAND NOTES AND I WEAR THE FEMBOY HOOTERS SHIRT

(@real-sephora)

No more than like five to seven to ten to twenty notes per person unless you're having a conversation with someone

I need this for the motivation.

Being a trans afab person who loves being feminine is so annoying because no one will ever take you seriously. Like yes, my favourite colour is pink, I love wearing skirts and dresses, I love wearing makeup and jewelry and feeling pretty, but that does not make me a girl!! I am so sorry I don’t fit into your perception of gender, but I’m not doing this for you! I’m not here to preform for you, put on a show of what you think a trans afab person should be. I’m here to express my true self.

I haven't had a haircut since 2012.

I love my long hair, which, about now, reaches down to my waist.

But I have to admit that my hair is thin.

Sides are okay, but most hair coming from the scalp... it is thin.

My transition hasn't started yet, and may not for several more years, damn waiting list. Minimum three (which i reached this year,) but up to six years at this point.

Fuck the tories.

I always promised myself (long before I figured I was trans) that I wouldn't be one of those men (now, one of those people,) who would have a bald scalp and weak comb-over to try (and fail) ar maintaining the Illusion that I still have long hair.

I just wish I could look in the mirror and like what I see.

I wish I didn't have to deal with the problems of aging men.

I am a woman in my heart but nature gave me all of mens problems.

(Probably made worse because I didn't figure myself out until I was approaching my mid-30s)

Tall and broad body

Barrel chested

Thinning hair.

I think I have a widows peak at this point.

Hairy body. Chest, legs, arms. You name it.

I am in the wrong body for me.

I really feel I have to wait until I start taking hormones, and seeing the effects they have on me before I can even socially transition.

Because there is nothing about me that could pass as female at the moment.

And I know I've been losing hair since my mid thirties, but now I'm entering my late thirties it seems to be speeding up.

I swear I see more scalp through the follicles these days.

It's getting harder and harder to cover with volumizing products, styling, and so on.

This has mostly been a rant to just vent my feelings.

But I know a lot of ladies have short hair and are still very feminine.

Maybe I can try short hair instead of an ever growing comb-over.

Even though long hair does seem to be tied to femininity.

Most trans women in media have, at least, shoulder length hair.

Only cis-women can get away with short hair, it seems.

Maybe that's not to right way to think but it's the way I do.

I can only hope that hormones, whenever I get them, can retore some activity to the follicles of my scalp.

If nothing else, I hope that people will recommend different types of hair cuts and hair styles for me to try.

I can use an app to get a vague idea of what I would look like before I commit to the work of a stylist.

Any style that works with a person who has plus-sized features would be welcome right now.

A pixie cut is the only one I could think of right now. And I'm not totally convinced that I could pull that off.

If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

skirt problem

okay so I am getting a neat skirt or two soon! pretty cool, right? except I am a (trans) man. I have had SEVERAL people tell me "that's not very transmasc of you." okay?? men can wear dresses and skirts and high-heels and fishnets and makeup and all that and 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙖 𝙢𝙖𝙣. so what if I'm ftm transgender? wearing a skirt doesn't make me less of a man, and it doesn't make me not transgender. I still feel like a man, "dress like a man" (whatever that means) and I actively identify 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘮𝘢𝘯. wearing a skirt with thigh high socks and fishnets sure as hell doesn't make me less of a manly man. So!! to all of my fellow trans people that like doing things like this, I see you and I love you! Transfemme peeps, wear that cool suit! Transmasc fellas, wear that skirt and those rainbow socks!! If you are comfy in it and enjoy wearing it, then cool!!! it's just clothes, so people can just look away if they don't like it.

Dear, Authors.

Saying your book is LGBTQ+ but both main characters are cishet and the only queer characters are background or barely mentioned means that it is not LGBTQ+ and just (yet another) straight romance. The LGBTQ+ community is not here for you to gain brownie points for putting us in the background. Make us main characters or don’t write us at all.

Signed, a very fed up trans/agender queer 😘

Your girlfriend with something extra. 🍆 you like?

Me and my friend were in choir once and our teacher said boys sing the first verse and girls sing the second verse and my friend (who uses they/them pronouns) turned to me and went “I guess we don’t have to sing then” and I said “yeah lol” and then I just stared at them in disbelief for a solid 5 minutes like what the fuck I haven’t come out to anyone yet is it that obvious??

[Trans Problems]

I NEED SOME ADVISE FROM TRANS, NONBINARY PEOPLE AND ECT.!

Ok guys so I'm genderqueer.

I rarely feel dysphoria in my chest, seriously if I could I would probably go just in my pants and nothing more and I would feel comfortable.

But often when I clothes on my chest I feel dysphoria, because it always makes my body look too feminie.

So I thought of buying a binder.

And my mom is really against it.

Before you say anything she's not transphobic or anything.

She actually knew from the begining that I'm genderqueer and basicly was just wating for me to come out.

She's really worderfull mother that supports me and help me with it. No matter what I am she loves me and tries to understand me by doing some research online and ect.

So why she doesn't allow me to wear it?

In my family a LOT of people both form my mothers and my fathers side had cancers and tumors.

And few women had breast cancer.

So.. In addition I have "bad genes" And probably very susceptible body to all kinds of diseases.

And she's very worried about this and just is afraid that I'll hurt myself by getting a binder.

And honestly I don't know what to think about this.

On the one hand I know that I can life without it and and chest dysphoria comes to me from time to time. Moreover I don't want to hurt myself.

On the other hand I feel very uncomfortable and disgusted when dysphoria comes and again I thinking of buying binder.

What should I do? Are there other methods that partially alleviate dysphoria I'm not familiar with?

I literally have noone to ask..

[bluejellyfishxx]

i'm still closeted, so no one irl knows that i'm trans and i have a crush on guy and i don't know will he be into me or not if i'll come out, so this so real to me

it will be funny if he'll find this post one day (it's not my art btw, i found it on pinterest)
