The best voice trainer for a trans guy?

Ever since my voice dropped it has been within the ”male range” and I don’t get misgendered on the phone.

However I PERSONALLY hate that:

  1. I can’t speak too loud (voice breaks, from what sounds like strain and exhaustion)

  2. I can’t raise my tone of voice without veering way too close to woman-territory.

I’d like a darker voice but I’m not sure how. Does anyone know a good voice trainer for men and if there’s a free app obviously I prefer that over paid (though I don’t mind paid if it’s a genius app).

I mostly see voice training threads for trans women, hope there’s something there for me too.

Big thanks! 🙏

Did doomers create their own sub yet?

I know that the title comes across as aggressive but I couldn't find a better way to put it.

I just so frequently see people complain that their doomer posts aren't welcome in trans subs. People reacting badly to a doomer post is often framed as that trans subs are "hugboxy", delusional, or are just "virtue signalling" by attempting to respond to said post with positivity.

And I know there's been a serious request from several spaces (this being one of them) for said doomers to create their own sub.

So does one of those exist yet? If no: Why not? Doomer posts and the negative reactions to them suck for either party, so why not?

To clarify, with doomer posts I mean when people are:

  1. Dooming and generalising ("No one who's x or y tall will ever pass.", "People just hate trans people and always will so there's no point transitioning", "Everything is over, I'm just going to detransition", etc)
  2. Clearly not looking for any form of support or comfort but just treating our sub as "screaming into the void" (this is, in fact not a void. It's full of people and the sub is for those people).

With doomer posts I don't really mean things like:

  • "I feel sad that I don't pass even though I've done every transition step possible, how do I deal with the disappointment and how can I find happiness in living as a <gender> even if I don't pass?"

I'd like to know because I still see a lot of people complaining about this, and even people complaining that "4tran" is looked down on so much (?? Don't be in a space that generally hates 4tran then?).

I want to be able to direct doomers to a sub that actually suits their needs better.

This, but a better, more quality brand?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a similar style to these but from a "better" brand. This is an amazon and aliexpress item.

I don't mind that the fabric is thin and "not that warm". But I also don't want this super shit fabric which'll almost inevitably tear down quickly since I'll be using it a lot.

Googling "fake two piece hoodies" generated a lot of results of similar items, but they're all from these same types of sites.

I'm not that fussed about the price. Since I really love the look of this item, I'm willing to pay for it.

Big thanks! 🙏🏻
