I just shaved. Shaving sucks. The worst part is when I'm done, before putting my glasses on, and seeing myself in the mirror all like, "Wow, what a huge improvement!" and then putting my glasses on and it's like, "Nope, that's still my face."
You can even still see, like, stubble. Blargh I say!
Have you tried wearing a pancake?

Hi i'm a 30 something transman from the UK, just wanted to say thank you for this thread I'm more than sure its helping alot of people.
Hey there! Now I'm not the only transguy! :-)
Hi, yes its like we are a minority within a minority! Plus I am just embarking on my transistion.
Oh cool! I am about 6 years into my transition. Let me know if I can do anything to help!
I don't know if it's okay to ask but I'm going to anyway so feel free to tell me to mind my own business if you want and stuff, but how long does it usually take a person to fully transition? Or is it an ongoing process for forever? Is it different for each person?
Well, I guess transition means something different to everybody. To me, I define my transition as when I first started to live as myself and take steps to be more comfortable with my physical self. I have always been a man, I just never had the words for it, I never knew there were others like me until I was 17. It wasn't safe for me to be myself and come out until I was 18 and out of my dad's house. I have been on testosterone for five years and two years ago, I got a hysterectomy. I would like to get a mastectomy. I will have to tak some dosage of testosterone for the rest of my life, I will be a transsexual the rest of my life. I am constantly growing as a person and learning new things about myself. In some ways, I imagine I will be in transition for the rest of my life. but again, it depends on who you ask and what you define as "transition".

Oddly, doing so only served to make my face less appealing. Which is strange because I used maple syrup to keep it attached. I was all, "My face is sticky and sweet, laaaaaaadies"

Also Antimatter, you seem like a cool person and I frequently find myself wishing I could do something to help you feel better. You and all the other people around here with troubles.
a few years back I recall there being a new discovery about the metallicity (any element in a star that's not strictly hydrogen) in globular clusters (which are typically made up of older stars)
in a few globular clusters, they noticed that there high mass stars that had a lower than expected metallicity (as the universe ages and becomes more chemically diverse, stars become less "pure" the later they form)
high mass stars have a shorter lifespan than lower mass stars, which means they should be too young to be as pure as they were
until someone theorized that the reason this was happening, was because stellar masses were merging and combining their hydrogen fuel, becoming higher mass stars in the process
god DAMN I love astronomy
Was watching a thing yesterday about how the collision of galaxies create billions of new stars from the gravitational shockwaves compressing the mixing gas clouds, and some of the stars are massive and burn out quickly (astronomically speaking) and blow up, causing more shockwaves that compress more gas into becoming stars.
and how its probably going to happen in 4 billion years to our little galaxy as Andromeda collides with the Milky Way.

my parents didnt have a girl name for me
instead i had two boy names that they couldn't decide on until very late
It was decided that I would be either Michael or Michelle, depending on what kind of bits I popped out with, though they bounced back and forth on whether that'd be my first or middle.
Mom liked "Jordan" as a boy's name, but dad didn't like "Jordan Michael". At one point he suggested reversing them and didn't get why that was a ridiculous thing.
Dad also took to initializing his last name for a bit, took him a while to figure out why everybody snickered when he signed stuff "Sgt. VD".

Haha yup. That Mother's Day was well deserved.
I just had to walk out into the living room and ask, "the hell is going on out here?"
She's singing and she won't stop? Well here, how bout this: Either you two straighten your shit amongst yourselves or your mother and I can straighten it out for you when we get home. Now if you don't want life to be living hell, I suggest you stay absolutely quiet until you leave for school.

Also, where the fuck did I learn that? That's not something anyone ever said to me while I was growing up.

Before following any advice, opinions, or thoughts I may have expressed in the above post, be warned: I found Keven Costners "Waterworld" to be a very entertaining film.
@Professor Fuzzles Do you mind if you ask whether you're going through the NHS with your transition? And if yes, how you've found them? I always wonder this because I think most of the trans folk on here are in the US and I wondered how it differed, whether better or worse.

It helps that the whole vibe of the thread is "We're all friends here, it's okay to come out and talk to us."
This is a very good thing.
I forget the details, but they have a thing with "I.O.U: One killing of you" written poorly on on it.
This has been your melding fact of the hour.
I ain't going back to prison
not for you

I need to win more bets with you.
yeah, but i've never actually threatened you with violence. This guy? not so much.
last i heard he kept it in a binder with his magic cards.

Dad isn't very bright is what I'm saying here.
