If 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".

[-] [email protected] 34 points 9 months ago

I'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.

Sounds to me like you're genderfluid.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

This sounds like boymoding. Is it the same thing?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

I've never heard of this in my life so you tell me haha.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

It'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.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Yeah maybe that's accurate. πŸ˜…

[-] [email protected] 44 points 9 months ago

I feel weirdly called out...

[-] [email protected] 28 points 9 months ago

That's what representation does to a mf. It's alright.

Status update: Mold accepted.

And what about you?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Still figuring myself out. Which is why this account exists, to be honest.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 9 months ago

Sometimes I think it’s just me wanting to be hot and sexy. And, well, I think goth girls are hot and sexy.

fact of the day: all trans people have fungus in brain

[-] [email protected] 38 points 9 months ago

fun Gus? =D

[-] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Fungus brain is better than the brain worms πŸ₯²

[-] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

The fungus keeps the brain worms away.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago

I just want a vagina between my asshole and balls. Is that trans? IDK. But I think it would be pretty cool.

Chris-Chan, NO!

[-] aBundleOfFerrets 9 points 9 months ago

Too many holes for one person. You would be an affront to all that is good and just in this world.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 9 months ago

You're just jealous that none would be able to out bottom me 😌

[-] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

I've heard it's possible, and some trans people get it done, but I haven't really looked it up.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

It'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.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago

That was me for soo long! I'm glad I finally came out to family and friends. And so far everyone reacted positive!

[-] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago

I'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.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I 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...

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Omg congrats πŸ₯° 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 πŸ˜‹ and now I'm 100x more annoying and stubborn, so its the perfect time to transition.

Trans imposter syndrome?

Daisy is currently working on a new webcomic, also with a trans girl protagonist: https://yellowbrickramble.com/comic/the-marvelous-land-of-oz
