As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Are there any restrictions on what topic I can write about? I was thinking about writing an article on obscure weapon sighting systems.
you’re free to write about whatever, it’s basically just a way for us to spotlight things we care about and share them with the community
can i please do one? i’ve never done one before :)
fine… you can do next week’s
I went on a date with a reaaaaalllyyyy cute guy last night. We talked for like 3 hours and he kissed me goodbye. So forearms were like double the size of mine I was in a puddle at the end, this is my first time that I’ve had a guy make me feel this way and I’m like what the hell, how have I missed this my whole life 😭
I feel like I’ve always been attracted to men in kinda a different way, like they were my friend and we were the same, while women were like this other species, but i really like it flipped around lol. 😝
on a serious note: holy shit that sounds incredible and i can’t even pretend to hide my jealousy. I’d die on the spot as a happy woman if that were me
i really want to try dating men but i keep getting terrified that they won’t see me as a woman. I see myself as a woman but I’m never confidence that anyone else will. I’d sell my soul for a man to let me be the girl on a date though 😭
This guy is queer and has dated trans women before, and from what I can tell he definitely sees me as a woman, but I had the same fears and issues with men before. Also chasers are gross :(
idk, he sounds like he might still be trouble. you should give me his number and i can probe him on 5 or 6 dates to see if he’s a chaser or not
Shout-out to the people who encouraged me when I posted in the trans megathread when my egg was cracking like 7-8 months ago. 6 months on hrt now and Im so much happier :D
How could you get on HRT so quickly?
If she’s in the US, there are states where you can just go to planned parenthood, say you’re feeling gender dysphoria and want hormones, and they’ll prescribe them for you.*
*May no longer be true with the damage the Trump admin is doing to trans healthcare.
Damn, wtf? I have to get 1 (one) whole year with a fucking endocrinologist to get a prescription
Where I lived it went, intake, two weeks later hormones. My experience was unusual and most are around a year like you.
I think it’s okay to ask for psychologic treatment for a year, it’s something I’d just do anyway, but what is an endocrinologist going to do for a whole ass year? It’s weird and makes no sense
I think it’s okay to ask for psychologic treatment for a year
Nah, fuck the cis, if they want to purposely go through the wrong puberty I don’t give a shit. Anything slowing trans people from getting their meds sucks.
Well, I guess you’re right. It takes a while to be irreversible anyways soooooo, just get that at the same time?
Here in the Netherlands you have to wait on year long waiting lists or start doing DIY HRT.
One of the few things I love about being in the US is informed consent being allowed in lots of places (even places like Texas, which otherwise have a pretty bad reputation)
The other reply got it. Basically went to PP told them I’m trans and got hormones the same day. One time I actually felt lucky to be in the great Satan
oh hey look it’s where i was like 8-9 months ago. the E is great, isn’t it?
Also I remember you saying to me before that my post could have been from you 7 months earlier,since you are clearly my future self you should tell me what I have in store the next 7 months, and maybe the winning lottery numbers
uhhhhhh… this is the bit of your life when you realize that although transitioning was an immense step in self improvement, there’s still a lot wrong with you internally and you still have a lot to work on. You get angry and frustrated by this until you start “talking with” ancient gods in a rhetorical sense until it stops getting rhetorical and starts getting literal. you’ll then have a moment with what feels like talking to someone/thing supernatural and dive head first into some obscure quasi religious practice
you’ll also come out at work, which you’ll be going into expecting one hell of a fight but being pleasantly surprised with how relatively easy it was. customers will still misgender you regularly for an unfortunately long time, despite your best efforts
Yeah that all sounds like a possibility. I was going to say thankfully I work without actual coworkers and not in customer service anymore but unfortunately I probably am picking up a second job at some point to be able to save up . Haven’t had interactions with spiritual entities since my psychadelic days but you never know
It’s amazing my brain just works better and my skin is so soft and my titties are starting to exist , no complaints here
dogs are aware of how cursed the fourth of july is as a holiday
Henlo mega thread. I am nonbinary
hi nonbinary I’m no longer dad 😂
Hey loves 💜
I wanted to give a little update, we made it through the hospital thanks to you all, but now my sisters and I are really struggling to find a safe place to stay. Right now we’re stuck somewhere temporary that’s not safe at all, and it’s scary not knowing what could happen next.
UNHCR told us to stay in Juba while they keep working on resettlement, but there’s no safe place here, and we can’t go back to Gorom camp because the host community doesn’t want us anymore. We’re trying to raise around $700–850 so we can get a small apartment for the four of us, with money for transport, rent, bedding, food, and the meds my sisters still need.
We’ve only raised $66 so far, so we still have a long way to go. If you can help us by donating, sharing, or even giving advice on safe places, it would mean everything to us right now. My mutual aid link is in my profile. Thank you so much for being here for us. Love you all so much. 💙🙏🏿

cw: relationship sadposting
so it’s been a year since I started HRT and my wife and partner of 25 years has not warmed up to me being a woman. To the contrary the softer I have become the less interested she is in sharing affection. My irl cis friend says that i need to stick a fork in this relationship and when i told the wife she didn’t argue she admitted that it’s gotten harder not easier. But she doesn’t want to split up, we are co parents and i’m the house wife!
But i’m so alone, i had a gf for a while (poly not cheating) but that fizzled out so i’m gonna just have to try again. I don’t have any family and few friends and im desperate to be squeezed and feel connected. I downloaded a new trans dating app with a dumb name and there’s so many cute girls in my area and while I may never pass and I may be old I’m still cute and i’m super soft now and i like myself so that’s gotta help.
I don’t really want someone else i want my wife but the spells i tried didn’t work and i can’t really think of anything else to try. Sometimes you make mistakes. The worst part is i feel like i stole something from her by killing off her husband. blah blah blah thanks for letting me vent kiddos. i love you bears so much :)
i woke up today ready to have a tough talk with her and she was cuddling me and being super sweet. I said my piece anyway, not really an ultimatum just communicating that i have sone basic needs that aren’t getting met and that i need to move on very soon if this isn’t going to work out before i age out of the dwindling dating pool. she listened and apologized and admitted that things were hard but she still wanted to be with me and try to make it work. She said the boobs, which i have been extremely fortunate to have the right genetics for, are really tough to deal with and we talked about ways to try and mitigate the issues.
I remain an optimist because I sure do love that woman.
probably doomed but i’m still in girls. I got a kiss :)

Got a few web friends to use my real pronouns and my new name. It just makes me feel euphoric, but somehow still feels wrong. Maybe some internalized transphobia or just the disphoria (probably because I haven’t started any part of the transition yet). But I’m happy anyways for getting some validation.
I have absolutely been there. In my experience is does get better the more you experience it
