just wanted to say that finding the sub the other day was the final step of cracking my egg. I saw all the amazing pics of y'all and was like "oh my god, YES"

anyway, I came out to all my friends today as a trans guy:) thanks u guys 🏳️‍⚧️💘

Im not sure exactly how to word this but anyways im a 20 year old trans man, i have been very masculine my whole life even in childhood a major reason for it was me wanting to avoid people calling me a girl/once i came out avoid people telling me im faking being trans or whatever. But like i really
Ike being feminine sometimes and i like some feminine stuff, i want to wear crop tops and makeup sometimes but im a bit anxious of how people are going to react and also i never learned how to do makeup because i came out at 14 so like i feel like it will just look bad if i try. I eventually want to start doing drag and stuff too once im more confident. I would just love to hear from other trans men who present feminine and like any advice for dealing with people who judge you also im super open on tips on how to start presenting somewhat feminine/how to do makeup well and also just like a bit of encouragement if people dont mind (i hope this all makes sense im very bad at wording stuff lol) (this is copy pasted from another subreddit because someone suggested i should post here as well) i think i want to start small like with just doing little makeup things before trying new clothes and stuff but i would just love to hear other people experiences and any tips or advice. thank you for taking the time to read my post!

I did my first shot with a nurse, and my second shot myself yesterday without help🎉🎉🎉

I'm hoping that I get some changes I really enjoy. If I could turn hairy and get a deeper voice but still be feminine in the makeup and stuff, that'd be ideal.

I keep doubting whether it was a good idea to start T, but I do think it was. The only thing keeping me back was parental approval, which...I'm 20. I don't need them to approve.

This should be interesting! I for one, am excited to see the changes that may come my way.

I'm post top surgery but I'm looking at really cute outfits and matching underwear sets and oddly, it's making me feel kind of...jealous? I honestly still wear women's underwear because I hate the feeling men's underwear gives me and it doesn't make me dysphoric. I've always liked really cute patterns but wanted to know if any of y'all had any suggestions for bras/things to wear that are like bras? I like tight underclothing (sometimes for cosplays, I'll wear a faja/corset so I'm okay with that too!)

I posted this to r/NonBinary originally, but hoping you guys can help me out.

At this point, I think I’m genderfluid. I mainly consider myself transsexual; I have chosen to live as a trans man to get as close as I can to my desire of being physiologically male.

I’ve been passing as a man for several months on HRT. Gender aside, I am much happier in this body, and I’m not waffling on further medical transition. Being a man is still a big part of my identity. I like he/him, I like the interactions I have with other men, and I like being a gentleman.

I do, however, sometimes miss presenting as a woman. Or, at least presenting feminine. I hated being treated as a woman pre-transition, because it was enforcing me being female in some way. Nowadays, I miss feeling pretty sometimes. I like feminine fashion and makeup.

If I lived in an ideal world, I would present super masculine to super feminine, have a male body, and still have people assume me to be male/treat me as such.

I know that I don’t live in an ideal world, though. As progressive as my area is, there is still misdirected transmisogyny I would need to worry about. I don’t think I *can* be taken seriously as a man while being all dolled up. I’m also returning to university soon, and I’m worried about my ability to make guy friends if I’m visibly nonbinary.

Is there any hope for me to be completely fulfilled? I know many people are visibly and proudly nonbinary and live great lives, but I don’t know if that’s possible for me.

hiii I’m a fine arts student and transitioning/on T. I was thinking about doing an oil painting based on the Birth of Venus w someone expressing their gender similarly to myself. I consider myself nonbinary rather than as a trans man, and I could understand for some that the association to such a prominent cultural symbol of femininity could cause discomfort, but if it resonates and you‘re interested feel free to hmu :)
