THIS SHIT WORKS OKAY, I AM DEAD SERIOUS.

The last time I saw this on my dash, I didn’t think it would happen, so jokingly I wished I could go to a fun. concert.

AND GUESS WHAT, I WENT TO A FUCKING FUN. CONCERT.

I SAW THIS ON MY DASH THE OTHER DAY AND THOUGHT “ITS WORTH A TRY” SO I WISHED I COULD GET A 3DS

LITERALLY LIKE 4 DAYS LATER MY DAD SENT ME A PICTURE OF THE 3DS XL HE BOUGHT FOR ME WHILE I WAS AT SCHOOL

GUYS.

HE FUCKING CALLED ME 20 MINUTES LATER

20 FUCKNG. MINUTES. LATER.

[noun]

wish; will.

Heritage of Pride, New York City, 24 June 1990

First photo is this summer, a few months before HRT. I was probably hungover; I was facing huge issues with substance abuse and I was drunk nearly every single day. Some days I’d skip work and be wasted by noon. Thinking about it now makes me want to throw up. Here we are, 7 months on HRT and maybe 10 months since this photo. I might drink a beer or two on a weekend, but I haven’t been drunk in months. HRT isn’t a magic pill, there’s a lot that we all need to do to get where we want to be.

This being said, looking back, I’m so proud of my mental progress. My mood is amazing, I laugh so easily, I like to socialize with people again. Sometimes you feel like a 13 year old, the emotions get the better of you and you lash out or get upset. Still 100% worth it in my opinion, I can’t believe I ever tried to live life as a guy, nor how I ever lasted so long in that body. I’m so close to being the busty butch chick of my childhood dreams, and I could not be any happier about it =)

There are many resources online about the dangers of binding for FTM guys, but far fewer that address the dangers of tucking.

This film, based on the youth of trans dancer Nora Monsecour and made in collaboration with her, features a young trans girl character tucking with tape in order to pass as a young woman. It is good to see that a film is drawing attention to MTF struggles, and the daily practice of flattening your groin, which can sometimes be very painful.

As an alternative to tape or bandages, I would recommend LeoLines underwear, available through Etsy. There are many reviews by trans women who recommend LeoLines panties and padded bras, and the underwear is so cleverly designed that many women report not even needing to tuck beneath the panties. (Also, as the designer of these products is a trans woman, all the marketing is aimed at trans women, and not crossdressers.)

Your medieval knights can share a pallet at night because it’s cold in this castle and they’re demonstrating their respect and affection for each other by sharing physical proximity.

In the far future, your dude can be a scientist adventurer robot captain, but he can also make food for people to demonstrate his affection and dance to show off his happiness.

Many cultures alive today expect the average man to be good with children, to be able to diaper a baby, to know how to assist in childbirth. Your men don’t have to go, “Oh god, an infant, I’ve never touched one of those before.”

Before modern Europe, there was nothing unmanly about loving colour, fashion, art, and decoration. Flowers weren’t always emasculating. Emotions weren’t always considered signs of weakness. Men got to want and have warm, close, affectionate friendships with other men.
