Starting a poll bc I think my university is making a poor choice & wanna see what y’all think:
If you’re a trans person who has at least one name they’ve picked out for themselves that they want to be called instead of their birth name,
#I call it 'my name'#I have changed it legally#and actually have some uncomfortable experiences with people who clock me as trans but don't seem to understand ive done this#like pressing me to share my 'prefered name' or whatever term they use when i just wrote it down for them on the form lmao

Well, good to know people are finally going mask off about it. They are straight up saying now that butches and gnc women aren't ever targeted, except for when it's incidental to transmisogyny. It's OK everyone! Gender noncomformity in women is totally accepted as long as you're not clocked as transfem! No one has an issue with it!
#its true#when my dad threatened/screamed at me any time i expressed not wanting to wear a dress at (function) its cause he thought i was transfem

I'm so tired of seeing transmasc's suffering downplayed
#og op's really gonna tell a story about hair being so deeply tied to gender expectations and then act like it doesnt go the other way around#guess what?#as a transmasc i also have stories of forced hair cutting being used to control and humiliate me#because as a 'girl' having very short/no hair is seen as one of the most tragic or degrading things imaginable

So... is there any transmasc who has had a good experience with an iud?
I'm supposed to get one soon-ish (prescribed for period issues) and keep falling into depression about it. Ideally I'd prefer to just take T and eventually stop the bleeding that way.
But I don't know when or if it would be safe for me to start, and getting the iud feels like a "final nail in the coffin" scenario right now, wrt that.

Just as an fyi (i've got like two original posts on this sideblog and 0 followers but apparently it already needs saying), I will not be engaging with anyone who leaves me bad faith messages/comments denying transphobia and aggression towards transmascs.

I can always tell who hasn't been on this site way longer than is healthy (or just didn't care) based on if they believe the hostility against transmascs/trans men is some new wave of exclusionism.
#its baked into the site#mightve calmed down for a spell but it was just as foul 8-10 years ago (if not worse cause barely anyone was speaking against it)#i avoided iding as that for literal years bc of it and only comfortable identifying as such in the past year thanks to those speaking up#transmasc#transandrophobia

at this point i don’t even have any commentary to add to this. i’m just tired.
#my favourite version of 'i forgot trans men existed':#when there's an article about a transmasc getting murdered/experiencing violence and author correctly genders and names them#but do gooder readers assume that the article is deadnaming them and end up misgendering the victim themself#10/10 well done everyone

So like, this thought has been on my mind for ages and ages, but i've seen some takes today that got my blood boiling so i wanted to write it out.
I think it's pretty crappy to address other trans/nb people you don't know as a "feminine-presenting afab" without knowing that they explicitly identify that way. Most specifically if it's used to dump all over someone's attempts to talk about their experiences. Or deny that these experiences exist.
So, so, so many trans people have little to no control over their outward appearance!
You don't know if they live under the thumb of family members who are strict and controlling of their clothing and appearance.
You don't know if they're struggling financially. (I had barely just come out of homelessness when I started figuring this out, I had nothing! You can't expect everyone to immediately go out and buy a whole new wardrobe when they pass the questioning phase or have the means to experiment with new looks.)
You don't know if they're fighting tooth and nail in a losing battle to access surgery, or if they live in a place where it wouldn't be safe to commit full time to HRT.
You don't know if they just realised they aren't cis yesterday.
You don't know what their future plans for transition are AT ALL.
#trans#transmasc#vent i guess??#i'm just pissed#and hurt by the insinuation that nbs who 'look identical to fem cis women' havent issues/experiences to talk about or worries about safety#my medical record says that i'm not cis! it said that before my legal name change went through and before surgery#back when any stranger would see me as a cis woman (albeit an ugly one LMFAO)#its right there to be seen by any of the dozens of med staff ive interacted with prob next to the part that talks about my disability#and mental health history. i'm stared of going to the drs for a hurt toe let alone get in an institution again

does anyone want to hear me rant about how jekyll and hyde can function as an allegory for how trans manhood is portrayed as an evil contagion that twists pretty, mild-mannered women into violent, deformed monsters? because i’m not even done reading it yet and i already have so many thoughts about the parallels between how hyde is described and how trans men are seen.
#i'm glad my tags were appreciated#it was hard trying to articulate them while also juggling some toast#and i was not disagreeing with the OP i just wanted to present how the allegory could be reclaimed by us#i've watched a handful of j&h movies and felt a lot of trans joy vibes to be found#just reveling in the joy of being a loathsome little beast of a fellow#at least early on before things go off the rails but i support trans wrongs as well as trans rights#i decree that all transmascs can indulge in a spot of murder spree here and there#can we also point out the parallel of jekylls proposed experiment being seen as going against nature/against god much like transitioning?#damn i should change my username to transjekyll or smth if its not already taken#the story has been on my mind for quite a while#EDIT: it wasn't!

#ironic to see this post because recently i was on a little j&h kick and was interpreting it as a transmasc story#only in a POSITIVE way#i.e. jekyll standing in for repression/surpression one might feel pre-transition#and hyde being the freedom to be oneself outside societal expectations yada#open freer less inhibitions#i really relate to that kind of take as someone who was a lot more closed off before coming out to myself#its a really special story to me#i even call myself 'a jekyll' sometimes cause im just here trying to create some identity for myself#that's free to exist blissfully outside of societys norms

it's probably not the best thing for my mental health, but the fact is that for me it's next to impossible to interact with transmasc people (or transanybody) in the offline world, so i made this sideblog anyway.
maybe it'll just end up being me venting or talking to myself, i dont know.
