I (20MTF) have never been intimate with anyone besides oral or kissing before I recently transitioned. I met this guy and we hit it off. He thought I was cis until he asked to see my vagina and I had to obviously reveal I’m trans (trading nudes online not IRL). But omg, he took it so well. He went on about how he’d never been with a trans girl and has always wanted to since he was young - and how I’m his biggest fantasy. I know some may see this as a chaser, but tbh I don’t care: this is the first man who has accepted me. We FaceTimed and I was nervous because my hair is only ear length and I had a 5 o’clock shadow, but he went on about how I’m so sexy. I’ve never felt this wanted before, but I’m still scared about losing my virginity soon. I just need any advice please.

I recently had a GP appointment and was referred to a Gender Identity Clinic, however even the doctor showed that they’re accepting clients initially referred as early as 2021. I’m twenty years old, and really wanted to get into HRT as soon as possible (before any more masculine features develop). I have no idea how to do DIY HRT and I’m so broke right now. I’m returning back to University in September and plan to spend my little maintenance loan on other gender affirming care (facial hair laser removal, eyeliner tattoo, etc). Just wanted to vent and hopefully get any advice or guidance x

I (20M) obviously can’t have kids biologically, however I can never adopt as I now have a criminal record (in the UK, adoption requires an enhanced DBS I believe).

Despite the crime being only drug related and resulting in just a community order, my solicitor stated that the likelihood of me being accepted to adopt or foster in the future is “close to zero”.

I feel like a lot gay men want to have a family nowadays, but I now can’t provide that. Therefore I worry that I am not as desirable compared to others, and this worries me a lot.

Are there many fields of work in HR which don’t require either a enhanced or standard DBS? I’m aware a common basic DBS check or questions regarding unspent convictions are frequent, but wondered if it’s possible to enter the HR field of work with a criminal record from the past?

Whenever I state I do not believe Jesus came back to life, or that “prophet” Mohammed flew to heaven from Earth on a horse. Or the story of Noah’s Arc and the flood, or Mohammed witnessing the moon split in half. I always get questioned “what about all the eye witness testimonies?”.

Many will say there are several witnesses, including women which would be uncommon back then considering the cultural misogyny (which I believe religion exacerbated anyways). The late Charlie Kirk also made this point, but for me, this is just not enough whatsoever.

Why is there no scientific evidence for the moon being split in half or a flood which wiped out 99.9% of the human population, but there is evidence for everything else. Science can explain things from before humans even existed (such as the extinction of Dinosaurs) but not human resurrections? There is no evidence of an afterlife, yet religious people cling to the concept of “near death experiences”.

Religious people love to say that religion is a matter of theology and not science, but yet will cling to any potential scientific evidence which briefly fits their narrative: unable to realise that causation doesn’t equal causation.

Curious as to which arguments you guys have as well.

I already have a Bachelor of Science (without honours), and received an unconditional offer to do a 4 year undergraduate in HR with a placement year. However I changed my mind and decided I rather do a 1 year masters, and I’m planning to try change it.

However I’ve heard it’s hard to get into HR with just a degree and no relevant experience. The masters has a 8-12 week internship however. Is doing the masters the best choice for me, and if so, any advice going into it?

I (20M) am born and raised in the UK, however ethnically I am Bengali. Bangladesh is a “Muslim country” and whenever people find out I’m Bengali and a non Muslim, I always get a lot of heat.

Last night I was being verbally abused for being gay (I look very feminine), then one of them asked which country I was from. When I responded with ‘Bangladesh’, he went on a rant about how as a muslim, I should know being gay is “disgusting”.

I corrected him and said “no, I’m an atheist. And have been for nearly 10 years”, and he then punched me and walked away. I ended up entering a shop which was right outside where this all happened to request to see the CCTV footage but the owner declined.

Overall, just wanted to rant about hard it is being an atheist when people can’t tell the difference between religion, culture and ethnicity :(

Edit: I said I was from Bangladesh because I’m not intellectually impaired and was conscious that they were referring to my ethnicity and not nationality. I have also contacted the police and hope I get a reply.
