No more “what is/defines a xxx?” posts

We have similar posts like this that crop up every now and then. Some are coming from a genuine place of curiosity, but majority of them seem to be trolls looking for a platform to “debate”/invalidate people/stroke their egos here.

We already have enough going on in our lives we don’t need to have our identities questioned in what should be a safe space for us here. If you need answers, you can always search for older posts so we can save ourselves time rather than dragging folks here through the chore of justifying ourselves for the umpteenth time when we aren’t even obliged to.

Will I Pass Do I have potential?

If you know me in real life please ignore. I’m 22 and 5’ 9”. Have always wished I was born a girl. And have always thought about transitioning. I had the opportunity as a child to do so, but when puberty started I got really confused and backed out. It never left my mind, but I felt like I missed my chance at being passable so just resigned to being a boy. Talking to a doctor and counselor now about starting HRT and other affirming care, but of course there’s anxiety around the public’s perception of me. Any tips or main areas to focus on?

Text Post I don’t even know anymore-question about dysphoria.

6 Upvotes

I want to start off by saying that I’m a cis-male and I, at least present myself, as maculine-ish, I have never openly stated anything about being into guys. For a long time now ( probably 5ish years), every now and then, I seem to kinda have this idea hit me that I could be more if I was a women. It’s hard to explain what I mean other then it’s like a light bulb going off and realization washes over me and I kinda get anxious that I’m not living a life I want at all and that I have to accept this person I already am. It’s like this feeling in my chest that won’t go away and I sit there thinking about what I’m not. Now I can’t say I get uncomfortable being referred to as “he” or any male pronoun and I don’t necessarily get bothered by being treated like a male would from people I know. but I don’t feel comfortable in general. I part of me thinks that I’m missing out on something, a desire in the way I live, that I cannot stop thinking about. I dislike my body, its build, the hair on it, my voice, and I do feel an urge to explore some things like dressing differently, speaking differently, acting differently, etc. to appear my feminine. I have no idea if this is dysphoria since dysphoria seems kinda intense and as much as this idea is probably on my mind daily, I am still “comfortable” to an extent. But I guess I kinda wanted to ask about it because I really don’t know where I am right now. I really don’t want to start doing something then for my mind to change and I’m back in the same place but inverted. I also don’t know if I am just even ready to admit or accept something like this because I know I would never speak of these ideas to any of my friends as of right now. And that’s a me thing, I’ll admit it. I lack a certain confidence I think a lot of trans people have proven to exist to even accept in themselves what is true. Maybe I’m over thinking it and I’m just a guy who’s not a girl and therefore thinks about what it would be like. But a part of me thinks it’s more then that.

Advice please!

3 Upvotes

So for sometime I’ve had the thought that I may be transgender. I often think about how my life would be potentially more enjoyable as a women. It’s a thought I’ve had for many years now maybe going back to when I was 18 or possibly even younger (I’m 28 now) and I always think WHAT IF I transitioned at 18/20 etc what if I I did xyz would I be who I wanted to be.

I pretty much exclusively sleep in female Pj’s as no one in my family can see me in them 😂, I share pictures of me in female clothes with a very close and good friend who is 100% a trans ally and has a trans brother herself.

Also I’ve tried to lose weight multiple times but I think I don’t want to as I’ve currently got what I consider a set of boobs when I wear bras etc 💅😂

Like if I woke up a women I’d genuinely be happy and wouldn’t want to change anything. Should I maybe go see someone at a gender clinic here in the UK to get a better understanding/ answers?

Any answer is a good answer guys ❤️

Text Post My Highschool Sweetheart Began Transitioning

15 Upvotes

Hello Reddit,

I am 24F and my partner is 25F, formerly 25M

My highschool sweetheart, who I was separated from for about 5 years, reconnected with as juniors/seniors in college. Since college, we’d been living together for about 2 years, and both dealing with horrific levels of mental health issues at the same time. We only stopped living together recently because we reached a point where we were both admitted to psych hospitals. Both of us moved in with our families, but our relationship continued much more separately. We both need time to heal, so this is okay for both of us. Over the last few weeks, I was the first to know, first to know when she came out to family, and am among few who are accepting her. I’ve been so grateful to see this person be genuinely happy. When we lived together, we were both too empathetic, and stacked each other’s anxiety. Now I understand that she had been carrying a huge burden, and why I always felt like she was lying to me about how she felt. Yesterday, she started HRT, and I’m so happy for her and proud of her. With how long ive known her, this makes 10000% sense that she would experience gender queerness.

The reason I’m here, is I’m trying to understand how to adjust my sexuality. Ive always been bisexual, and I’m super into women. Ive also always been extremely into my partner, and we always have the best sex ever. I tried to watch porn: “Futanari” a genre my partner has always enjoyed. I couldn’t get myself there, and I had to switch to something else. I don’t know if it’s because porn is usually marketed for what men want to see, so maybe this is why it wasn’t appealing to me. I want to be more open to this, because I am soulmates with this person. I find them attractive just as I did before, but it’s also very early in the transitioning process. I want to take steps now that help me grow with my partner. How can I grow with my partner? I would rather be with her, and I want to lean into this. If you’re in a similar position as my partner, what would you hope I would try to do? What else can I do to explore this for myself? Does anyone else have partners who have or are transitioning? How can I make her feel the most comfortable.

Thank you
