General Transgender Discussion

~ GENDER IDENTITY DISORDER ~ Gender Identity Disorder is a recognized medical condition by the American Medical Association and the American Psychiatric Association. It is considered a birth defect, which occurs about five weeks after conception. The brain does not match the physical sex of the body. This is also known as Transsexualism. There are males with female brains and females with male brains. The true incidence is unknown but is estimated to be one in one hundred thousand births. The reason for it is unknown but it is thought to be a biochemical mistake in the formation of the brain. The result is that the individual has the ps…

Hello everyone, I'm writing this with a lot of shame, but I'm hoping to find some guidance or just to feel less alone. I'm a 30-year-old man who has been trapped in my own mind for far too long. A big part of my story is isolation and a struggle with self-care. For about 15 years, I've lived in isolation, with no real-life friends, no job, and a deep-seated fear of social situations. This has taken a toll on my body as well. I'm struggling with my relationship with food—I don't know if it's the medication (Sertraline) or the depression itself—and I've gained a significant amount of weight. For context, I weigh about 125 kg (275 lbs) and I'm 1.73 m tall (5'8"). M…

The story of Jayne, incarcerated in a children's mental facility, Perth Western Australia, 1970s. Keep being you. Robyn BTW my role, "The Mutual Friend" and did a small part in the research process.

This is the video I tried to post the other day. I let out a long stream of vulgarities when I saw this 🤬🤬🤬🤬.

e was just wondering if any girls were growing breasts, & would they discus what steps they were taking as any help would be good as love to have breasts as i hate padding my bra out xx

I live in Russia. I can't change my gender. Help me. I really need money (

Wishing you all a very happy Pride Month. Let's make sure MAGA sees these rainbow and trans colors all month long, and beyond!

Я не знаю, можно ли задать этот вопрос здесь и задавался ли он ранее, но мой парень трансгендер и я хотела бы узнать у тех, кто делал операцию на g3nitals, какой метод вы использовали, осталась ли ваша чувствительность прежней после операции? пожалуйста, расскажите мне все об этом. Это, наверное, единственное место, где я могу спросить, я очень обеспокоена этим 🥲

I've been quite busy trying to keep up with all the latest attacks on the trans community and related news stories. We all know the bad news. The Trump Administration is hell bent on destroying the transgender community. The good news is there are a lot of good people and organizations that are on our side. Here are some information sources I'm doing my best to keep updated: TGGuide Facebook Page Trans Rights Watch Trans News Watch Being immersed in this every day, it can become overwhelming but I believe we will win this war that has been unfairly waged against us. Please take some time now and then to disconnect from the news and take car…

His cruel and hateful policies are going to put me back on the street, and Adrianne back with her parents. We won't be able to survive when he cuts out foodstamps and social security. If it wasn't for foodstamps, we wouldn't be able to eat. I couldn't drive my car anymore, because gas will be too damn expensive. Pardon my language. But we're not just leaving the country, we may be leaving the entire continent. We're thinking about Europe. I'm hoping for Scotland. If that's not possible, then I'm thinking Germany. Scot is the vast majority of my heritage, and German makes up the rest. So that's the reason for them being my preferred choices. Yeah like all white Americans, …

Things are really crazy politically. I’m terrified. I’ve started letting facial hair grow, and presenting as male. In his first term, we were made into the preferred boogeyman, and things have only gotten worse. God forbid you have any Hispanic heritage. They’re already trying to dox anyone with dark skin. They’re trying to get people to do the same thing people did in Nazi Germany. People reported their neighbors for being Jews, here they’re wanting people to do the same thing with anyone they think is Hispanic. Im not Hispanic. But I am transgender. While the hate and terrorism towards Hispanic people is beyond extreme, it’s equal for us. The men aren’t in anywhere…

You see with the current way things are working.. I'm living paycheck to paycheck, so I find it very difficult to save anything. Or it happens that I get to save a little bit of money on the side and then something happens that I have to suddenly spend that on something important to keep me going, like recently my jeep. So I haven't been able to save anything for my surgery and my consultation is coming up at the beginning of the new year! I'm struggling and my dysphoria is getting worse.. (Suggestions are greatly appreciated!) Please help 😩

We all know what he did to us the last time he seized power. He took away our humanity by making us an “unperson”, amongst many other atrocities. Which the Biden administration didn’t do a 🤬thing about I might add. Now he has promised to go after all of his enemies, which obviously includes every last one of us. In WW2, Adolf Hitler had his Gestapo. Adolf 2.0 as I call him has no incentive to not create his own Gestapo, and make us public enemy number one. I’m literally terrified for my life. And even more terrified of what could happen to Adrianne if we’re caught together. Asylum is a lost cause. So we’re stuck in this 🤬 country. All that said, I’m thinking of going…

I heard about this website on a YouTube video today. I don’t know if anyone is aware of it or not, but if not here’s the link to it. From what I’ve explored of it, it’s a great site. Professor Pride

I saw this a couple days ago, and it really helped my day. It was great seeing something that wasn’t just a couple stick figures for the bathroom.

One of my transgender friends explained to me why I was often frowned upon because of my clerical errors. A "he" slipped into a forum or private message by mistake is enough to hurt someone's feelings without meaning to. But where does this 'he' come from? Before my friend explained, as far as I was concerned, as long as the person hadn't made their complete transition, I tried to say "she" to please them because I thought they were a crossdresser. ERROR! ! A serious mistake that I now know hurts. I now know that a person at the start of a transition process is already a woman trapped in a man's body. The problem is that this isn't written on her face …

I just want to tell all my brothers and sisters to have a great Pride Month!

Hi ho, hi ho! It's time for visibility you know!

My own writing but copied from one of my blogs A question that has been much on my mind recently, as I write this I have a lovely blue dress on, black tights, a control bodysuit and black knickers and bra, my forms fill it out to a nice c cup and to be honest I feel very comfortable. Like most women my age I don't have any makeup on but that doesn't make me feel any less feminine. I have been asking the question above a lot recently. My dysphoria has never been so bad that I have wanted to take a knife to my genitals or felt that bad that I wanted to take my life. Something I know a lot of transwomen have felt so strongly that they wanted to do so. Don't get me …

My friend is trans we are planing a girls night but we’re do I go so she can really he herself what restaurant?

ive been wearing wemons clothes for a while now it feels good but is it wrong

I don't know if the title conveys this all that well, it was just the best I could think of. Does the impossible trigger your depression, or just get you down? I'm talking about more than desire. I'm talking extreme despair. For example I don't want to have to have a sex change. I want a uterus, Fallopian tubes, ovaries, menstruation. You get the idea. The things that a cis woman would have. The closest I can come is GCS. I can have a vagina, but that is where it ends. A lot of the time I talk about going back to being "him". Letting my beard grow, stopping HRT, and just giving up. It's triggering to the point that I'm about to.... I don't want to use the S word, but I kn…

Adrianne and I never leave the house anymore. Unless we have to. We both carry, and when we have to go to the grocery store, we shop separately. We pretend not to know each other. If it comes to something that severe, we're all in extreme danger just for being seen. She and I have become extremely reclusive so as not to draw any attention. We're scared. I keep a shotgun by the door, and have several weapons in a gun safe. We're six shades of screwed for the crime of existing. At some point, some republiKKKLanazi is going to propose a bill that will charge all people of the LGBTQ+ community a tax on the air we breathe. And It won't stop there, as those who are allies that …
