butch gender?

I'm sorry this may sound ridiculous but i've never heard of such 'identity'. Wht does butch identity even mean, is it really that hard to say that you're a masculine woman, why do u have to mutilate your body wirh hormones just to be different. This kind of people are just using our resources to be different while some diagnosed transexuals have to wait years to get their medication, i just cant fucking understand this shit anymore.

What is masculinity/being a man to you?

I see so many reels of tucutes saying things like,”I love my boypussy!” Or “I use old spice deodorant now”. Or they talk about how they first associated themselves with being male through yaoi.

Other than fetishes & little aesthetic obsessions over “boyhood”, what are things in life you attribute to your masculinity &/or manhood?

I know TikTok is bad but I swear to god

My original comment was replying to them saying that they hated the idea that trans people are born in the wrong body and that they love being trans. I just said that I would have greatly preferred being cis and that being born in the wrong body is the only way I can conceptualize myself without having extreme dysphoria. I never said I didn’t love or appreciate my body, or that I resent myself. To say that I’m lucky to not be cis is fucking crazy. I would give or do nearly anything to be cis. I just don’t understand how I can say that I was born in the wrong body and id greatly prefer to be cis and they somehow take that as not loving or appreciating myself or that I resent myself.

Also if being trans isn’t a condition then what the fuck is it. Again, why do they think I don’t love my body? I do. That’s why I’m transitioning. Because I love myself and I don’t want to be stuck dealing with something that’s not what it’s supposed to be. It’s like saying people who get a prosthetic or a tumor removed don’t love themselves because they’re not appreciating the body they’re in.

I hate how kids now go through “trans” phases instead of “emo” phases

This time its actually harmful and clearly the result of the internet. Harmful to both real trans people and vulnerable confused dysphorics who will wanna die when theyre stuck looking like a man or a woman

Why did tucutes always need to divide themselves from cis men?

i stumbled across this post before and ignored it, ive literally never heard that before and just thought that i dont simply fit into that term as a straight man. i found it again and actually read through some of the comments, saying how trans men are not the same as cis men and are biological women so they shouldnt be put with the men. how trans men deserve their own space away from cis men who didnt go through misogyny and womanhood. even when someone commented that theyre with the men, there were so many people arguing against her.

i find it stupid how ‘trans men’ are literally scared of cis men, some even bring up mens violence against others too… but arent you transitioning to male? they dont make sense.

People confusing masculinity/femininity with "feeling like a guy/girl"

I'm not sure if my take on this is correct, but it's something I noticed with many people that say they're "under the non-binary umbrella". These people genuinely confuse feeling masculine with "feeling like a guy" and vice versa. There are cis guys that feel feminine and don't act nor "feel" like the typical cis man. Instead of thinking that this is okay and you can be/feel feminine as a guy, they come to the conclusion that "they're not 100% cis" and that they must be a demiguy/non-binary/genderfluid or whatever bullshit gender that was made up. The same thing for cis girls that are tomboys, that fall down the wrong internet rabbit hole and suddenly identify as a "genderqueer masc enby", without understanding that it's actually completely fine if you're a girl/woman who's masculine.

And I'm actually someone who likes the societal idea of men being masculine and women being feminine, as it makes it easier to pass and I just like that societal norm and I will conform, because I like being seen as just a normal guy. But I don't have a problem with people being masculine/feminine, no matter their sex. But it's important for me that these people don't get confused by some trans activist and gender fanatics and end up going down the medical transition route and regretting it, becoming detrans and start hating on all transsexuals. Or they never transition medically because of a lack of dysphoria, but start preaching gender identity and that you can identify as everything, which also hurts actual trans people and cis people as well, because even more of them then get confused. The mistake in thinking that the title implies harms both cis people and trans people and we should stop it.

‘Gurl, passing isn’t the goal for all trans people’ to a trans man…

Why is wanting to pass in a binary way so frowned upon? It’s also curious how usually other trans folks are the ones who display the most transphobia?

Unbelievable

This is unbelievable.

At a time in the UK when we are getting laws and guidance put into place that try to stop us from going to public toilets, using changing rooms, accessing shelters, single sex hospital wards and anything that could possibly be gendered (even if just for the sake of gendering it), this woman feels it’s necessary to come out and tell the world about just how female she is, whilst also saying she’s not female at the same time? Make it make sense!

Seriously though, children and teenagers aren’t being allowed to transition at school, and are banned from accessing blockers or HRT pretty much until they’re 18 unless they want a safeguarding referral, and where everyone is waiting for dangerously long amounts of time on waiting lists for diagnosis and treatment. How is this considered acceptable? It makes us all look like self-absorbed, attention-seeking clowns, and only puts us in more danger of having our rights and amenities removed. How can we be expected to be taken seriously if articles like this are being published for everyone to see?

Christian/conservative grandma

Hi there, I have this christian/conservative family “issue”.
I’m 18 years old, 5 months on T and I’m supposed to be meeting my grandma after 6 months or so. Of course, the testosterone did A LOT for me in these 5 months (voice majorly dropped, facial hair, +10kg…) and I’m very very stressed about this interraction.
My grandma is about 78 years old and she is very very christian…
I’m asking for tips on how to go about this, I figured it’s best if I tell her myself rather than someone who knows shit about this topic.

Are they seriously treating hrt as alternative medicine or something now?

It doesn't help that the profile icon of the original commenter is a hyperfeminine one but with a beard.

What even is a "gender maximalist"? Why are some people outright admitting misuse of cross sex hormones? How can she feel so comfortable talking about the things that'd happen if she stopped taking t, claiming she was "very much a boy" previously? Why even are adults using the words boy/girl to describe themselves that's so creepy.

I feel personally ridiculed at this point. I just wanted to learn about some lesser known effects of hrt...

the word bitch

hello brothers just had a quick question/discussion i wanted to talk about , a friend of mine who is a woman called me a bitch twice , the first time they did i called them one back then they stated you know how i feel about that word. ( this is fine cause that word is met with disrespect most of the time ) so i then stated you know how i feel about that word as well.

couple conversations later i get called bitch again said in all caps now “ YOU BITCH “ i then reply and say how if i call you one back they proceed to say “ You don’t have tits anymore you can’t be calling girls bitches 🤷🏼‍♀️ Thems the rules Or you can say whatever you want just don’t call me one” this rubbed me off extremely weirdly the fact i hate the word tits especially as a trans man just reminds me of my identity regardless i find this hypocritical , i just wanna know if im overreacting or being over dramatic?

if i need to provide more context i can if this is confusing i apologize and yes this person uses they and them pronouns but still refers to themselves as a girl

Tape removal

I use regular kinesiology tape and coconut oil. Removal takes me at least an hour and leaves glue residue on my skin. Is there a quicker way to do this?

Friend came out as "trans"?

So I'm 19(transexual man) and I've known this friend for about 3 years now. A few months ago they came out as mtf to me, and I was supportive because initially they said their goals were to be a fully passing woman, and when I asked her questions seemingly showed signs of dysphoria at the time I asked. So I tried to give the best advice I could.

Well recently in the last month or so, she has been doing these weird behaviors that are making me take her much less seriously. For example, referring to her genitals as "girlcock" or a "bussy", talks about how she can't wait for estrogen to give her breasts and how we can all grab them if we wanted to, talking about estrogen before she's even passing or attempting to pass, she mostly looks GNC or a femboy rn to other people and such, and on top of that I corrected her(?) own boyfriend who misgendered her and she told me it was fine he calls her a he/man because she isn't fully sure she's trans. Which upset me deeply even more because it feels like she's putting on some kind of weird persona or like this is a costume to her. Like she thinks this is some kind of choice.

I'm just so unsure what to do or say, I don't think this is okay behavior and I've spoken up about my transmed views to them before, and they mostly told me the same tucute B.S you hear online. How saying that "xenogenders and tucutes are making the community look bad and us saying that actually is basically the same hatred cis people give us", which to me is such bullcrap. Because I've never had issues with cis people about me being trans because I didn't make an effort to tell everyone I was trans or something. So I didn't bother arguing with them more about it because they both(her and her bf, who is my other friend) have such harsh tucute views.

On top of all of this her bf recently came out to me as "non-binary" because when he's done hitting the gym, his goals are to be skinny and not fat??? Yup. That's his whole reason. I'm so done. Idek what to say.

Sorry if this post is kinda rambling, I honestly had nowhere else to put this and wanted opinions from like-minded individuals.

what the fuck

genuinely i do not get why binder companies use women to model their products. it's genuinely dysphoria inducing. why would any man want to buy something that's supposed to be gender affirming, but is being advertised being worn by a bunch of girls. genuinely what the fuck. i know their main demographic is all the tucutes but holy shit this is ridiculous? then don't even mention all the infantilized ass patterns on binders. why are we doing trains and frogs and monkeys like we're four-year-olds

You're queer but you're straight ?

Genuinely what the fuck are you talking about. (And before i get flamed , i know they're using it under umbrella term. . But ??) & then i'm sitting over here defending my identity as a man & not just a 'transman'. Why are trans people so into the idea of being trans and putting it forward so much. Same with the "what gives it away" videos. I dont know. . Probably the 5 #trans tags you have under your post ?? I'll always think stealth is the perfect way as your identity is. . Being a man , no ? Maybe i'm just too conventional when it comes to what the term TRANSGENDER means.

(Post can be removed if tos just wanted to rant cause nobody will understand the "i'm not trans i'm just a dude , a regular guy" mindset better than fellow transmeds. 😭)

I keep getting told to kill myself and its getting excessive

ever since i made another account on tiktok to actually express some of my opinions, i have gotten multiple people telling me to ‘slice my wrists’ or genuinely just kill myself. im 15, the last person to tell me im a terrible person was 19, an adult. most people messaging me literally claim to be trans, theyre just tucutes.

some comments are just tucutes telling me how the cis people will still never like me and that im bringing the community down, while others are just full of hatred. they always act the victim until they see someone who has different views than them, then they just go off.

even when people are there to back up what i say, like state their experience of actually being taken seriously in public because they pass, they still choose to argue and say were the dumbest people on earth.

im tired of this. people dont even notice im trans in public, its only transphobes and tucutes online who have something to say.

this post was a vent but also just to bring awareness to this whole thing. im literally seeing more tucutes go off on transmeds rather than actual transphobes. i have many moots on tiktok as well, also teenage transmeds, who have had experiences like me. there are literally adults telling teenagers to die and everyone just acts like everything is fine because ’were the bad ones’.
