I’ve tried to buy in various, and I mean VARIOUS ways, but I just can’t rn apparently my country blocked payment transitions that had to do with directly buying it online, unless it’s P2P where I have no idea where to do without getting scammed, ugh and I’ve been dealing with this for days straight I just really need some help I’ve tried everything. I wonder what else there is to do.
What type of excuses I can give when asked about my voice being deeper? I already have facial hair even if I’m not on t yet, so that’s a non issue, but about voice and light facial structure I’m not sure what i would say when asked about without saying that I’m on hrt. Just doing the research before starting to be sure.
I see a lot of people using that they are just ‘transmasc’ to emphasise being ‘transgender’ but not actually making the effort to pass, or they just dress accordingly to their birth gender and simply change pronouns, but there’s really a difference? I wonder is it’s as transmasc is being put under the non-binary umbrella to justify masculine pronouns but without the slightest bit of masculine presentation which confuses me because it takes all the concept of the word masculine itself, as in ‘trans masc’ would be ‘trans masculine’ which is were you transit to masculine/male, or am I just wrong?
The non-binary umbrella seems to really have a lot (and I mean QUITE a lot) of genders and fluidity depending on how people feel, but I thought the original concept was that non-binary was under the trans umbrella and not a umbrella itself.
What are our thoughts on the non-binary community? As in demigender, gender fluid, etc. I’m just curious.
To a certain extent I used to understand the concept of gender being not equal pronouns, but as I started to see more and more ‘lesbians’ who date trans man (does not apply to the screenshots context) and people saying ‘it’s not that deep’ or ‘while you’re arguing about it there’s plenty of lesbians dating trans man and happy’ I wonder why would any man put himself in that situation and genuinely feel ok with that.
Gender expression being different than presentation and all that is a narrative that some of those people have been using for a long time to explain trans people not transitioning at all by choice, looking exactly the opposite gender they claim to be and as a bonus invalidating themselves in their own relationships, isn’t that the same as putting a trans women dating a cis man and calling it a gay relationship? Why does this situations only suddenly appear and everyone is ok with it when is about trans man being lesbians, when clearly lesbians are women who are attracted to other women (perhaps including people on the non-binary spectrum).
It goes from ‘Gender ≠ pronouns’, then ‘dysphoria is different for everyone, I can be trans and present completely like a women/man and still be trans’, ‘I only do HRT because I want this specific thing and that specific thing’.
Is just an observation, I don’t see this being talked about in this subreddit.
I’ve been considering diy for years now, I’m sure I will never be able to get access to hrt by visiting a doctor as it isn’t even possible in the country I live, and would cost a lot more than I am able to afford if I do it overseas, but as I am considering diy I see that people say ‘it’s not dangerous, just check yourself up and keep an eye on this and that’, and that’s trustable, I doubt I’d get any legal issues on my country and that’s another bonus, but now you see there’s other people who say that people shouldn’t consider diy at all, that is dangerous, and is this and that. What’s the point? How can I be even sure? I’m taking this decision in process to improve my mental health and even protect myself in various ways, but of course people who defend diy will defend diy, and people who don’t…well, won’t.
I’d like to hear about someone who does diy how things went, in a way that don’t make it seem like it’s all sunshine and rainbows.
I just want to have a estimate so I can buy enough needles or a whole pack plus the other stuff for the ‘kit’, since it’s a injection a week, I wonder how many injections you can do with one of these and for how long. I believe it might depend on the dosage you take? So as a reference I’d say the typical 50mg/week.
