Female to Male (FtM) Transsexual Discussion

I am being FORCED to get hair extentions. How screwed up is that?! yea, my mom says that my hair looks and i quote " disgusting". And it's not even in the least bit masculine, it's one of those hidious femme short cuts. now may be a good time to introduce myself to the forums. my name is JC, i am a FtM, i am quite young 15 to be exact.

clik HERE... then come back with your feelings on the choice "matt" made.

what's your choice? post a reply with the reason(s) for you choice (optional)

I have been revealing in my new found identity with packing and asking people to call me by a different name and binding. I have loved it. What I did not see coming was that summer meant swimming and bathing suits. I love swimming. I live near both a pool and the ocean and I love playing with my kids. I taught swimming for several years during high school and college. I just do not know what to do. I have literally no women’s clothes left that I wear. NONE. What the heck do you guys do to go swimming? I can’t pack and I can not bind. I feel so exposed. I hope some one has some ideas. Christopher :o

I want to get the opinion of other FTM's on this. I'm 29, I've never had sex and never really been comfortable with the idea. When I first discovered I was trans, I thought this must be because of the gender dysphoria - makes perfect sense, right? Except that I'm getting to the point in my transition now (on T 2 years, had chest surgery) where that's not an excuse anymore... All of the FTM's I know are comfortable enough with themselves by this time to have sex, and none of them are virgins. In fact, most of them had sex even pre-transition. So I'm starting to think there might be something else going on. Of course the T makes me aroused a lot, but even under that i…

So, I want to shave, and I don't exactly want to slice my face up by accident lol What do I do? Up or downward strokes? Shaving cream? Where? I know nothing. Teach me please This 'bumfluff' hairs that females have, is well, very female looking and may not be helping me pass, even if it is a tiny issue i guess.. but still. i want it gone. And.. will anyone know that i've shaved? If someone were to touch my face, they would know yes? Anyway.. any advice and help is much appreciated Kevin B)

I recently found out from an FtM I know that even after being on T for a long time, he still has periods of a sort. I guess it's logical that of you still have ovaries, you can have a period, but this is not something I have ever thought about, so I was kind of taken by surprise. I mean this guy has a male voice, pimples and the beginnings of a beard. What kind of experience do you guys have?

Im at that stage where, I look like a guy convincingly but am still a girl. Whenever I use the womens change rooms at a pool or go to the loo, the girls look in horror and point and stare. It's getting way to embarrasing and I don't want to get confronted by someone about it. What should I do? Is it okay to go the mens toilets if no one sees you? I really don't know what to do.

Hey fellas, Does anyone know the effects of moderate drinking on testosterone? I drink about twice a month, but I'm wondering if it's somehow inhibiting my transition. My endocrine hasn't returned my email regarding this question. If anyone has any info I'd appreciate it. Thanks, DS

Umm... Hi. My name is Alex. Well, I have a few questions. I'm female. If I were to get an operation and (for lack of better words,) get a penis, would I be able to feel everything? What I mean is; During sexual intercorse, would I feel what other males (who were born male) feel? Would it be any different? Like the sensations, intensity of it, ect? Oh, and this is probably a stupid question, but would I be able to ejaculate? And would anyone happen to know what the sucess rate of the FTM (Female to Male) operation is? I heard it is a lot risker than a MTF operation. Sorry if the questions didn't make complete sense. I couldn't think of any better ways to …
