Sharkwellington ( @Sharkwellington@lemmy.one ) 52•1 year agoIf I could push a button to change my sex I absolutely would, but I don’t have it in me to transition on the outside and deal with the societal consequences. So I just stick with androgyny as “close enough”.
metallic_z3r0 ( @metallic_z3r0@infosec.pub ) 20•1 year agoI’m with you there, though I would push that button like every other day. I like being a guy, and I think I would like being a girl about half the time, though ideally I’d control two bodies simultaneously all the time.
Sharkwellington ( @Sharkwellington@lemmy.one ) 17•1 year agoSounds to me like you’re genderfluid.
Franzia ( @Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 4•1 year agoThis sounds like boymoding. Is it the same thing?
Sharkwellington ( @Sharkwellington@lemmy.one ) 4•1 year agoI’ve never heard of this in my life so you tell me haha.
Franzia ( @Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 10•1 year agoIt’s like when you are trans MtF, transitioning, but stay closeted and dressing like a male and going by male pronouns… Even while bodily changes take place. The idea being you can one day wake up and put on a dress and you’ll just be a girl and you can come out of the closet to… People who had the opportunity to notice these changes in you for a long time.
Sharkwellington ( @Sharkwellington@lemmy.one ) 3•1 year agoYeah maybe that’s accurate. 😅
Madlaine ( @Oszilloraptor@feddit.de ) 25•1 year agoI feel weirdly called out…
ChaoticNeutralCzech ( @ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de ) 15•1 year agoThat’s what representation does to a mf. It’s alright.
FakeGreekGirl ( @FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English3•1 year agoYou and me both.
Madlaine ( @Oszilloraptor@feddit.de ) 4•1 year agoStatus update: Mold accepted.
And what about you?
FakeGreekGirl ( @FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English3•1 year agoStill figuring myself out. Which is why this account exists, to be honest.
fact of the day: all trans people have fungus in brain
Franzia ( @Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 3•1 year agoFungus brain is better than the brain worms 🥲
FakeGreekGirl ( @FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English1•1 year agoThe fungus keeps the brain worms away.

🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆 ( @Kolanaki@yiffit.net ) English12•1 year agoI just want a vagina between my asshole and balls. Is that trans? IDK. But I think it would be pretty cool.
Rozaŭtuno ( @Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 5•1 year agoI’ve heard it’s possible, and some trans people get it done, but I haven’t really looked it up.
🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆 ( @Kolanaki@yiffit.net ) English7•1 year agoIt’s called phallus preserving vaginoplasty. I had wondered about it for a long time and only discovered what it was called the other day so I’ve been reading a lot about it.
apotheotic (she/her) ( @apotheotic@beehaw.org ) English4•1 year agoYo that’s fucking awesome. I like my “package” but also wish I had the other “kit”. That sounds ideal.
Holzkohlen ( @Holzkohlen@feddit.de ) 12•1 year agoTrans imposter syndrome?
confusedbytheBasics ( @confusedbytheBasics@beehaw.org ) English10•1 year agoI love this comic. I’m extremely curious about the experiences of attractive women. So curious I sometimes think I wish I were a woman. Sometimes I feel jealous of all the validation they get. However the more I learn about their lives the more glad I am to be an attractive man.
Michelle Hughes ( @MegaMichelle@a2mi.social ) 11•1 year ago@confusedbytheBasics @squirrel
Okay, but if the social pressures were equal, which would you rather be?
Cuz, like, being scared of the social consequences of transitioning doesn’t make you not trans.
confusedbytheBasics ( @confusedbytheBasics@beehaw.org ) English1•1 year agoI don’t want to change my body and I’m comfortable being a man. I’m intensely curious about another life but I’m happy with my own. If I could start over in a new body and could choose to be a cis woman I would.
Franzia ( @Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 10•1 year agoI’ve had this conversation! This is where a lot of tranaphobia came out of me. Like “yeah I wanna be a girl, but not trans - trans people are freaks. I’m not like them.” Fortunately, trans people have very good representation now.
I was really lucky to have met so many great trans people at the perfect times… And it didn’t change much for me. It was, and still is, about accepting myself. So many conversations about it, yet none led to me doing anything about knowing I’m trans.
Smoregoose ( @Smoregoose@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 2•1 year agoI think I’m still trying to get past some of that myself to some extent… I was into alternate universe stuff when I was like 14 or 15, and just randomly one day I thought of the universe where I was a girl and I came to the conclusion that I would be happier and more attractive in that universe… unfortunately I hadn’t had any exposure to trans people outside of the mockery present in pop culture, so I forgot about it and a few years later started accepting trans people (except I was always confused by trans men for some reason…). Then at the start of this year, after already questioning my gender for about another year, I remembered that conclusion…
Franzia ( @Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 3•1 year agoOmg congrats 🥰 I similarly came to egg conclusions as a teen and then sort of shelved it because people were vehemently opposed to what I was trying to express. I’m 26 now 😋 and now I’m 100x more annoying and stubborn, so its the perfect time to transition.
