Uhm... sure 😳, here you go: 🪿🪿🪿

Hey sister. These are scary times and I wish you the very best. I'm about to go to bed and I just wanted to share this link with you: https://genderdysphoria.fyi/en

It was very helpful to me when I started out.

I also wanna say that transitioning is whatever you need and want it to be, and that there are no requirements to being trans or a woman. You are exactly who you feel you are and no one gets to tell you what that means to you. Clothes, make-up, voice training, hormones, surgery, etc. While I recommend experimenting in a way that is safe and comfortable to you, I also wish to stress that there's nothing wrong if you don't feel you need some of these things.

Realizing that transitioning meant doing the things that relieved my dysphorias and also just the things I want to do was very freeing to me, and so just in case you've ever gotten the impression that some things must be done, or that you have to have some dysphoria of some kind to qualify please be aware that this is not the case. This is all both about relieving dysphoria but also about freedom of expression. (Your identity is descriptive not prescriptive is what I'm trying to say. Do whatever you feel like, and then whatever label you use is just how you describe it to others)

I'm sorry about your situation and I wish things were easier. There are many here who have lived through similar things or are in the midst of that sorta thing right now. Hopefully they can offer advice on that. I recommend checking out the blåhaj matrix channel as there are several americans there who you might wanna talk to.

The comic is about the news reframing bad stuff said about trans people to not obviously be about us, and my comment is pointing out that I don't often see this but rather see news gleefully fuel the anti-trans fire.

Edit: in fact your linked article is a great example. it specifically uses transphobic dogwhistles and uses languages that creates sympathy for the transphobes yelling about people minding their own business.

Edit 2.0: It occurs to me that you maybe thought I didn't think there was much transphobia being pushed by the news these days, but by "this" I mean what the comic is saying and not what I am saying.

I dunno, most news sites seem pretty good at spreading anti trans propaganda on their own, usually quoting transphobes verbatim and even using their language when not quoting them.

Edit: Perhaps this was more correct some years ago

biological male who identifies as a woman

I hate them so very much

Edit: as in I hate the bbc for using this language

Busy! I'm currently in the middle of a cell biology test thingy that I need to complete to qualify for exams. My legal name and gender has finally changed and as a result lots of things are no longer valid and will need to be renewed with my new details. My mom will be visiting next week also, and I'll likely be coming out to her then. Too many things :P

So she has had surgeries from what others are saying but I should add hormones do change where the body stores fat, so while you can't get changes to your skeleton (unless you start early enough), you will be a bit surprised at what curves you can get. Makes it easier to get a slim waist and big thighs. You also get a thin layer of fat under all your skin making you a bit softer in general. There's ofc breast growth which usually yields smaller breasts than cis women, but you never know. Some people get honkers. Exercise to build up muscles that help you look more feminine is a way to change your body as well.

Basically what I'm saying is that yes, you won't get these results from HRT alone, but HRT does do a bit more I think than many expect. Many things put together makes you look very different, even if many of us hope for more.

I wasn't available at the time? I can't be expected to respond instantly to everything. It is nazi apologia, even if that was not intentional. At least in context it seemed like it. I would have written "nazi" if I removed the comments because I thought you were a nazi and would then promptly have banned you.

We considered your comments without the context of who the guy really was. We still found them in poor taste.

Was about a literal nazi propagandist from nazi germany. We did indeed interpret Satans comments as muddying the waters

Was about a nazi propagandist in nazi germany, not a conservative reporter (same thing these days I guess)

Hi!

Here's the context:

Your scenario wasn't terribly relevant to a nazi propagandist being hung after the war, after the holocaust. It came across as trying to paint the idea that nazis were hung as bad. When others brought up death tolls alluding to genocide you likened the idea of killing nazis to the current US government killing reporters.

I had a brief look through your profile after and it's clear you're no nazi, but we still found your comments in poor taste.
