Thanks to Christmas Jones, CK07, Spamdrogyne, RabbitMage, Lainlike (especially for running a few TMTs herself) and others for contributions to the creation of the TMT-VII. And proudly, this is the second TMT in which both trans men and trans women are more-or-less equally represented. :)

Sister/Brother Threads



GBS thread: GBS rages on the transgendered. (GBS) (closed)

77 year old navy veteran has gender reassignment surgery - GBS flips out (closed)

Transgendered people no longer have a "disorder" (transchat 3.0)


Everybody is welcome to this thread: trans people, cis people, gender-nonconforming people, genderfuck people, drag performers, people of all gender identities and sexual orientations.



The last TMT has gotten pretty big and the information within is rather scattered. We want to create a new thread so we could pool together a lot of the common questions and also gear this thread more towards support than the previous threads have been. While each thread starts off ostensibly as an Ask/Tell thread they quickly become a spot where trans people talk about their experiences and questioning people post about their confusion. Specifically, we want to make this thread more newbie-friendly so that means putting commonly asked questions in the OP and also providing community resources in an easily accessible manner. To that end, the OP is going to consist of three parts. This introduction, a second post with frequently asked questions, and a third post with resources, whether it be literature, websites, local organizations, or members of this community that wish to make themselves available for chat.



If these posts seem horribly, horribly long, it's because it is a collection of all of the main information that was discussed in the last four threads. Unless we want the first 20-30 pages of every new TMT to be about issues we have already discussed, a mega-OP such as this is necessary in order to condense the hundreds of pages of discussion we've gone through.



Here is some backstory on some (but not even close to most) of the contributors to the TMTs. The point is to make sure you realize that our views are subjective and biased. And, perhaps, you might find something that you relate to in our narratives, if you are questioning your gender identity.











We hope that with the stories of both trans men and trans women, that at least some of it might make sense to you.



Glossary/Terms You Should Know



  • Transgender - term used to describe anyone who transgresses (or wishes to transgress) either through social or medical means the identification of their sex on their gender identity. Often identify simply as "men/women," although some identify primarily as "trans," or as a third-gender, or as no gender, and so on. It is an umbrella term.


  • Sex - the state of being physically male, physically female or to some degree of intersexed (genetically, physically)


  • Gender and Gender Identity - the socialized roles of men/women based on their male/female sex identification, and the self-identification with those roles.


  • Sexual Orientation or Sexual Identity &#8211; the ways in which a person sexually expresses themselves, either through their orientation (straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual) or means of expression (dom/sub, stone, etc)


  • Cisgender - the state of having your physical self-identity and social gender role "match" (in whatever way cis people feel they do)


  • Transsexual - the state of having your physical self-identity and socical gender role "mis-matching." Many transsexual people feel that they need to undergo some sort of physical change in order to be happy with their bodies: such as hormones, surgeries, and so on. Accompanying this most of the time, and overshadowing the physical change for the majority of transsexual people, is the social change, of actualizing who they want and need to be.


  • Trans Woman - anyone who is of trans identity and identifies with the feminine gender spectrum. Pronouns (usually): she, her, hers, Miss


  • Trans Man - anyone who is of trans identity and identifies with the masculine gender spectrum. Pronouns (usually): he, him, his, Mister


  • Genderqueer - anyone who identifies as without or beyond the gender-binary spectrum of masculine/feminine. Pronouns (sometimes): they, their, xe/hir, ze/hir, and so on. (if you're having trouble conjugating those pronouns, it would go like this, "he walked to the park with his dog" -> "ze walked to the park with hir dog")


  • Genderfuck &#8211; anyone whose gender presentation seeks to give extreme contrast masculine and feminine norms at the same time. An example of this is a person having a beard (either grown or false) and large (either grown or false) breasts. It is seen as both a form of activism and caricaturization of and against masculine and feminine physical and socialized gender traits.


  • Blending: Blending is an alternative word for &#8220;passing,&#8221; which has racist connotations. It essentially is &#8220;blending in&#8221; with society and not standing out, by conforming to a particular set of gendered expectations in physical appearance, mannerisms, and so on. It doesn&#8217;t mean that every MtF must act like a stereotypical cissexual, straight woman and buy overly-effeminate clothing. It also doesn&#8217;t mean that every FtM must suddenly begin wearing business suits or do weightlifting. It is essentially the difference between being read as cisgendered or being read as transgendered.



What does &#8220;transgender&#8221; mean? Who is considered trans?



The exact meanings of the terms like &#8220;transgendered&#8221; and &#8220;transsexual&#8221; are hotly debated with constantly shifting goalposts based off of politics and ideologies. For the purposes of this thread, all gender-nonconforming people can and should be allowed to participate with the obvious caveat that, for example, a cisgendered drag performer not claim to speak for the experiences of transgendered people or vice versa.










Now that you know who we are and where we stand, we will begin the define some more complex ideas and terms. If you're still interested, read on.

Before you read this post, a lot of it will be filled with the nitty gritty of HRT. So if you're one to get squeamish when there's a lot of TMI, then you might want to skip to the last post.

:gay: Rules for Civil Conduct :gay:

Ask me, or any other willing transperson (of which there are many, open and hidden) on SA questions about trans. Just please be respectful and understand that the stereotypes you know of transpeople are as bullshit as those applied to any other minority group out there, from Muslims being terrorists, to gay men being pedophiles. I'm a very open person and I'll be civil if you'll be civil. Linking crap like a Mormon "Family Values" site to prove transgendered people are heathens will make me become uncivil.

Do not cite South Park. Do not ask us if we want surgery unless it comes up in the thread as a topic of discussion. Do not ask us if we "look anything remotely male/female." Do not ask us about conditions that do not directly relate to transgenderism, like demanding to know what we think about self-amputation. Just use some tact. Jesus christ.

Another thing - this is not a rule, but a kind suggestion: please do yourself a favor and put MisterAndrew on ignore. Your cooperation would be much appreciated.

:\ Frequently Asked Questions/Concerns :\

This post will perpetually be a work in progress. If you have a question that you feel should be here, feel free to ask one of us to add it to this post. If somebody has a question and you want to answer it and you or we think it should go in this post, we will add the question here and quote or link (depending on length) your post as an answer. If you think a particular answer is inaccurate or only applicable to some people, please feel free to dispute it and we will either edit it, remove it, or put both answers up.

:mario: Transgender Sexuality :mario:

In a nutshell, a transgendered or transsexual-identified person can be any sexual orientation under LGB and beyond. Straight, lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, asexual &#8211; you name it. Sexual identity is different from gender identity. A trans woman may identify as lesbian and be interested in other women (either trans, cis or both). A trans man may identify as gay and be interested in other men (either trans, cis, or both). They may also identify as straight (trans men interested in women, trans women interested in men), or bisexual, or pansexual (loving someone beyond their gender or physical identity), or asexual (not desiring anyone sexually regardless of gender).

It is important to remember that identified gender always comes into play with sexual orientation identity. A lesbian trans woman would not identify as a &#8220;straight man,&#8221; nor would she identify as a &#8220;gay man&#8221; if she were into men &#8211; she would then be a straight woman. The same applies to any identity along the spectrum of the binary and transsexual people, unless their physical identities and mental identities do not match, which is rare but possible.

For everybody:

-Why should we use &#8220;cis&#8221;?

&#8220;Cis&#8221; is the functional opposite to &#8220;trans.&#8221; While trans means across from or on the other side of, cis means on the same side as. It refers to people whose gender and sexual identities match up, and it&#8217;s in practical usage quite simply a more elegant way of saying &#8220;not-transgendered&#8221; that doesn&#8217;t rely on othering or reducing transgendered people (compared to &#8220;normal&#8221; for example). Usage goes as follows: cis man, cis woman, cisgendered man, cisgendered woman, cissexual man, cissexual woman. It is only necessary to add the &#8220;cis&#8221; modifier when it needs to be stated that a man or woman is cisgendered. Similarly, it is only necessary to add the &#8220;trans&#8221; modifier when it needs to be stated that a man or woman is transgendered.

Something that we need to stress: &#8220;cis&#8221; is not a slur, it is merely practical clarifying language that helps to set trans and cis on linguistically even ground.

-Is there a &#8220;right&#8221; way to be trans?

In a word, no. There is no &#8220;right way&#8221; to be trans. There are certainly a lot of common narratives among certain groups of trans people.

Because of the highly politicized nature of transness and because it involves a lot of feelings and emotions that run very hot, it's quite controversial. But I ultimately take the view that there is no one "right" way and indeed, many trans people will mix and match these depending on context. Because the factors in each of our lives are so different, because we ultimately are different people with different desires and needs, it's wrong-headed to decry people for adopting any particular course of action along these lines. No, out activists aren't the one making things worse for trans people by refusing to be silent and refusing to "be normal." Both narratives, that trans people are *supposed* to either be outspoken and angry, or mousy gender-conformers, are not only false, but they are the products of oppression.

More than that, though, there is no single trans experience. People come to their transness different ways, at different times, and at different levels of acceptance/understanding/knowing.

However, there are a few things that you should consider:





-Disclosure

Disclosure is a tricky subject. The stereotypical situation is going bar-hopping and getting hit on by someone, usually a trans woman by a cis man. Disclosure is when the trans woman will say, "I am a trans woman." The reactions of the cis men can be different, from "it's cool whatever," to "OH GOD YOU TURNED ME GAY." More importantly, disclosure can result in violence, oppression, and emotional harm.

When do you do it? How do you minimize the chances of rejection or violence? Some trans women decide somewhere along the line that it isn't worth it to them, and continue to go stealth in these situations, trying to brush the guy off if he is clearly not the type of person to take it well. Some exchange some formalities and then drop the line early on to ensure there is no miscommunication regarding it.

Disclosing in these situations is difficult, as a lot can go right, but a whole lot more could go wrong. Typically feelings of "betrayal" will fly around if one waits too long, although some cis men feel betrayed from the moment they lay eyes on you, because you're "deceiving" them.

These same rules apply, although to a much lesser extent, to straight trans guys.

-Passing/blending/out/stealth?

The definitions are as follows:
-Passing/Blending: The act of not being read as a trans-person, and instead &#8220;blending&#8221; as a cis person.
-Out: The act of being out about one's identity to friends, family, and work
-Stealth: The act of not being out about one's identity to friends, work, and sometimes even family.

There are arguments both for and against being &#8220;out&#8221; or &#8220;stealth.&#8221;

Arguments against being out include increased risk of violence, higher risk of unemployment, estrangement from peers or the workplace, and being questioned about ones identity frequently. Arguments for being out include the possible creation of safe and positive spaces for other trans people, of forcing a company or workplace to adopt anti-discrimination policies, and dispelling myths about transgendered people, so that other may understand it more.

Arguments against being stealth include higher risk of violence upon accidental discovery of &#8220;past life,&#8221; constant fear of ones past (and the need to invent an entirely new one), higher demands on &#8220;blendability,&#8221; including expensive facial feminization surgery for most MtFs, and estrangement from a community that understands you the most. Arguments for being stealth include a lack of trans-specific discrimination, integration into more &#8220;mainstream&#8221; society, next to no questioning about the integrity of one&#8217;s gender identity, and less ghettoization.

Is there a right way? No. Just be sure that whatever path you choose is filled with support and the love of those who are close to you.

For male-to-female transsexual women:

-What kinds of hormones are involved?

Typically, hormones for male-to-female transsexuals involve the following:

- Anti-androgens (Cyproterone acetate (Androcur), Spironolactone)
- Estadiol (Estrace (synthetic), Premarin (&#8220;organic&#8221;))
- Progesterone (Provera) (this one is dubious as many health care practitioners don't see any benefit in progesterone for trans women)

Anti-androgens suppress the male hormone testosterone and cease masculinization of the body. Spironolactone specifically also has the effect of being a form of anti-acne medication (and is actually marketed as such for cis women). Estradiol is the main female sex hormone, which is in all regiments of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for trans women. Progesterone has dubious advantages and disadvantages. As of this posting, the Sherbourne Health Centre's HRT Protocol does not include progesterone as a viable component of HRT.

The main reason why anti-androgens are used is because it allows estrogen to feminize the body more easily, without having to fight testosterone for the same amount of space and function. Without anti-androgens, high amounts of estrogens must be prescribed. High amounts of oral estrogens can cause blood clotting, cancers, and so on. While AA's aren't perfect, their side effects and potential damaging effects are far less than overloading on estrogens. And on the plus side, AA's also bring testosterone levels to normal female amounts.

Typically, the following dosages are used.
- Spironolactone 100-200mg (typically 50mg or 100mg twice daily) OR Androcur 50mg-100mg.
- Estradiol 2-4mg (once daily) or Premarin 4-5mg (once daily)
- Progesterone 100mg (once daily) (optional/not recommended)

Generics for these drugs are typically fine outside of the United States. Inside the United States, using generics is ill-advised: go for brand-name equivalents. The FDA are morons and don't regulate US generics like they should, and things like Androcur aren't even approved so they cannot be prescribed. In places like Canada, however, generics are as good as the real thing. (Sorry, yanks.)

Hormones such as this are typically taken in pill form, although estrogen can also be taken as an injection into the muscles of the butt or leg every seven to ten days.

If one has not undergone the "wrong" puberty, or wishes to shut down a currently-ongoing puberty, drugs such as Lupron can be taken (again, injection) to essentially shut off the hormone-regulating functions of the brain, therefore ceasing puberty before more damage can be done. &#8220;Puberty blockers&#8221; as they're known are generally not useful for any trans person over the age of 18 or 19, and instead anti-androgens should be used for trans women.

-What can I expect out of hormones?

It depends on the person. Some of the most noticeable (and nigh-universal) effects of female sex hormones and anti-androgens on male-bodied persons are:
  • Much softer skin texture
  • Decrease and eventual elimination of male sex drive and the development of a female sex drive
  • Slower-growing (although not disappearing) body hair
  • Reduction in acne

Depending on age, build, and genetics, the following may also happen:
  • Breast growth (final size and shape dependent heavily on genetics, body fat index, body shape)
  • Lactation (got tard cum)
  • Puffier cheeks
  • Redistribution of fat to chest, hips, thighs, face and arms
  • Greatly reduced muscle mass/enhanced female-type muscle tone
  • Reduced penile tissue (it's gonna get smaller)
  • Reduced gonadal function (nothings gonna come out anymore, also sterility (although estrogen is NOT birth control - some girls never get completely sterile before an orchi or SRS; please have safe sex))

What WILL NOT happen is the following:
  • Bone structure will not change unless started through puberty (hips, face, frame, etc. do not change)* (note below)
  • Voice will not go higher (it will need to be trained)
  • You will still have to shave (and undergo Laser or Electrolysis to epilate the hairs permanently)
  • Your genetics will not convert from XY to XX
  • Your testicles and penis will not fall off
  • You will not grow ovaries and/or a vagina

Some of the bad effects:
  • Spironolactone is a diuretic, which means you will pee a lot more than usual.
  • Salt intake will also be a bit fucked with Spiro, and will most likely require you to eat more salty things.
  • Potassium may spike with Spiro.
  • Occasional mood swings on Estrogen, although no where near as bad as if you were on Progesterone as well.
  • Water retention levels will go up and down even while on Spiro because of E. Welcome to being a woman!
  • Your breasts will hurt. A lot.
  • Your testicles may or may not be in occasional pain. This is either hit or miss for most people: some get it, some don't.

* While bone structure may not change, fat and muscle redistribution over time may make the hips, chest, face, etc. take on a more feminine shape, especially if one has started in their late teens through to their mid-to-late 20's. Hips may appear more girly, you might start developing the right curves, and so on, over the course of a year or two. While these possible effects go down over time, you'll only start facing real problems if you begin over the age of 35-36.

And here is a subjective story:



-Sex drive?

The female sex drive is very different than the male sex drive. As opposed to it being &#8220;always on,&#8221; it takes more time to work up to a full erection or to be aroused in general. Sex is often less &#8220;rushed&#8221; and the orgasm doesn't become the centre-piece of the sexual act. Orgasm becomes something of a full-body experience, ranging from slightly more intense than a male orgasm to extremely intense and mind-blowing, depending on how well the body takes to it and how well the body was stimulated before hand.

You most likely will still be able to get erections with a female sex drive, and your interests generally won't change too dramatically. The #1 sex organ is the brain. Estrogen might make you like certain things more than you thought possible (smelling the scent off of a boy will be very interesting the first time you do it, especially if you consider yourself to be lesbian).

-Tucking?

Tucking is essentially cramming your junk downwards and wearing two pairs of elasticated panties over them. It can be very difficult for those of us who are well-endowed, but it gets easier over time. There are hyper-advanced methods of tucking, but essentially the easiest way to do it is to simply get panties with elasticated crotch areas and just shove it all down and towards the back. You might have to adjust it through the day, but it beats the shit out of wearing a gaff or taping/gluing ( :gonk: ) your junk.

-My voice is horrible I want to rip out my vocal chords aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

:siren: Read this post from the old thread :siren:

-MTF fashion tips

The problem with writing universal women's fashion tips for anyone is that it is 100% subjective. Some trans women like being butch, or butch-y, or androgynously butch, or straight-up androgynous, or androgynously femme, or femme-y, or femme, and so on and so on. To go for any &#8220;universal&#8221; look is nigh-impossible. There are, however, some basic guidelines.

Don't be afraid to show skin. Start shaving your body parts like your arms, and show them off. Don't hide your body shape even if it isn't particularly feminine &#8211; female clothing can and will accentuate the feminine aspects of your body shape, even if you're convinced you have none. Masculine and feminine body shapes aren't a binary dichotomy, so don't be extremely concerned with that &#8211; many cis women have narrow hips and broad shoulders and they get by just fine.
Don't hardline to an ultra-conservative matron. It's a common practice for trans women to want to wear tons of layers and long skirts or baggy pants to hide their bodies. A lot of this has to do with our innate body dysphoria. Try to ease off of that and show more skin, and more importantly, dress more like other girls around you. If you're a 20-something girl living in a big city, you'll typically see girls wearing t-shirts or blouses during the summer that show off their arms. Don't start loafing around in a giant fucking turtleneck sweater during the middle of July. It looks silly and brings attention to yourself.
You're not ugly. Shut the fuck up. While experimenting with stuff, you might find looks that kinda-sorta work, but not really. But go with it. Every trans girl has horrible wardrobe mistakes in their pasts that they look back on and proceed to place their hands over their faces for. Don't worry about it. You're practically growing up again so just have fun and learn from the mistakes.

At the end of the day, you'll get better advice posting a picture here and going under the gaze of other trans women than you will reading a guide. Either post a picture here, or contact one of the SUPERFRIENDS to get some fashion advice.


Because these sections are huge, the FTM section is in Post 3.

These gullibile idiots are so predictable, the farms should send out a memo of what to look for
1. Pritine Christine Body Type: Huge manly trunk, no muscle or fat on peripheral limbs
2. Autism: Dead Fish Stare
3. Lesbian: They claim to be a lesbian first and foremost
4. No real self awareness: Posting photos that show off their hideous faces and sharing private most intimate thoughts of sexual fetishism.

If you've got a few of them, especially with autism, then they're bound for laughs.

This is bound to make some sort of news
