Why are so many trans women attracted primarily to women? like you'd think trans women would be into men like most cis women are but that doesn't seem to be the case? I'm attracted to men as a trans woman but I seem to be an outlier?
>>42311851>well it sounds like you are pretty if that’s your experience ive been described as cute/pretty but i have low self esteem so i honestly dont know if its true or just ppl trying to make me feel good>where are you locatedtoronto>I feel like the PNW is probably the only place for actual tranny dating ive heard good things about portland and Vancouver. i think its alright in my city tho since its very diverse so nobody rly gives a shit.
>>42311922I would say if cisgirls stick around long you are a baddie since they have a lot of optionsbut FUCK, everyone is always so north or west coast. Literally all the trannies in my area in the southeast US are actual transbians it’s a shame
>>42311958>I would say if cisgirls stick around long you are a baddie since they have a lot of optionsyeah i mean prob, i always like only have cisf friends so i think thats also helping my chancesalso ouch id hate to be a trans woman in the south. hard mode fr
>>42311358transbian and gaydens enjoy dating more after transitionHSTS and butches enjoy dating less after transitionit's survivorship bias, though the amount of gay trans people is still definitely higher than the amount of gay cis people

New Year's Editionprevious: >>42044782 >>42079478 (died prematurely)Goal of the thread: Consider the things you want to improve or accomplish, whether long- or short-term. What small steps can you make towards those goals?Daily goals can be repeated. Remember to keep score, it can only go up!>What is this thread for?Getting better is hard, and sucks. A lot. It does not get easier doing it alone.Share resources and experiences with combating depression, anxiety, personal issues, achieving or maintaining a healthy weight, etc.>Why is this thread /lgbt/?Struggles with mental and physical health are an indisputable part of /lgbt/ life, be it from dysphoria, social pressure, heartbreak, or just unfortunate lifestyle choices.>Notes to consider:Please be civil. Shame is your greatest enemy in fighting urges of self abuse (be it sh, drugs, or just self deprecation). Relapsing into bad and unhealthy habits is to be expected, the goal is to increase the average amount of time it takes between relapses. Any improvement is a victory no matter how small.

>>42267633Cooked myself today, a simple dish (penne in a garlic tomato sauce), but filling and tasty.I'm glad I did, in spite of the .. subpar kitchen I had to work with (moving again).>>42268048I think romantic relationships may be too few and far between to be a good place to try and rebuild trust. What about friends? I think building trust with people close to you in a platonic sort of way is probably the best way to go.>>42268568I think it's the kinda white lie to protect your privacy any functioning adult should expect of people. Maybe that's an extreme stance but I was raised with a "nobody is entitled to your personal info" sorta mindset. I think you are doing well on that front.>Been waking up at 4:15Christ almighty..>>42268842>>42269105Oh this is very good, Anon!Noted, and putting it in the resources! I have.. a bit of a to do list I need to work off, actually! I very much appreciate it!>You might want to mirror or archive these eventually in case Kohn’s personal website shuts down.Oh yes I might convert them to markdown and put them in the external posts/blog paste! Good thinking, Anon.
>>42268193>You gonna try not doing it once a week for a start?Probably twice a week, once a week feels like too little>what exactly do you feel you struggle with most?Everything, from eye contact to knowing what to say to people to body language, it's like I'm barely human in that aspectI think it's because I'm neurodivergent
>>42269227It sounds like a good idea, generally. You could try and see if you can opt for a workplace that supports WFH, but the more long-term sustainable solution would be to expose you to the anxiety, safely and at your own pace. Maybe driving with a friend? Even just sitting in the car in bad weather might be a start to get you accustomed. It is a thing that you can rid yourself off with salami tactics like those where you keep pushing the limits of your comfort.>>42269733I'm glad to hear the board games are getting easier, any particular one you enjoyed in particular so far? Just curious about the types you wound up playing!>Basically when I'm not working my day job, I am doing something that might be good for my brain.First of all, that it awesome that you are working hard on yourself! But if it's alright I gotta stress that you must also look out to not burn yourself out, okay?>I hope you get to rest soon!Thank you so much, Anon. My love also pushed me to make sure I don't overexert myself, just had a talk today actually. I'm trying, and the weekend helped a great deal.>>42270143I know the other Anon already asked but just letting you know we're here for you if you wanna talk about it.>>42271430>they relly on me but i cant...i cant love them trulyWhat does it mean to you? Do you feel detached from people, try expressing the ways in which you are, and try recalling how it was in the past for you. I think it is worth exploring what the terms of what you would consider love actually are to understand why you feel like you don't give enough of it. At least that is how I understand you here.>>42274002No biggie Anon, I'm always glad to listen, even if I take a while to respond.
>>42270777>It's just pathetic.I understand that this disdain for your situation, but I don't think it pathetic at all, you are in a shitty situation and have not been given the tools to aptly resolve it, so you ask for help. Being stuck is not a weakness of character, often it is just a lack of critical resources. I am glad you came. To recap, you are lonely and want to make meaningful connections with people,>Earlier today i got criticized for something(rightfully so) and before i could even process>i'm also too retarded to even work and support myself.you consider yourself incapable (in what ways? how does your "retardation" manifest?), consider getting a job I assume (what are your qualifications?)>I would also like to troonwanna transition,>I'm feeling very overwhelmed right now> it mentally i already started to swear before catching myself in surprise.and need help grounding yourself/cope with emotions as the crop up. I do think Panty raises a good point with trying out therapy, but we do have resources that might help you on top.There's multiple fronts to tackle at once here so I will try simple, would you perhaps wanna try and find people who share your interests, it's a common hack getting to know people if your location allows.>>42271510>>42271840Being over 30 myself I assure you it is by far not as bad as it seems, but I get *why* you set that goal like this. I think that big, overarching, abstract goals like "fix life" lack concreteness though and can often make our lives miserable, this is why I tend to stress the utility of SMART goals ITT. If you want we can try and subdivide the nebulous goal of getting shit together into smaller goals that feel more attainable, because without a concrete set of small goals the pressure will only build for you.Comment too long.

Alright, enough for tonight.>>42273205That first thing at least sounds horrendously suspicious, yeah. What the hell?>I'll give it a try. I can start this weekend.Do tell me how it went! And I'm glad you have the funds secured now for the bar, so that will make things easier during shitty weather conditions.>Nah, I didn't really make any connections. I know, I'm a loser ;-;Not at all, Anon. But in that case my first question would be the usual one of "what are your interests, and where could you go where people can bond over it?">What makes you see it as a boon?>Most people don't want to hear my manifold infantile jokes and the environments are never appropriate for me to make them anyway.My trick is actually precisely to foster an environment in which my humor is appreciated, and choosing my company to consist of people who enjoy my presence. Sure, it means not everyone can vibe with me, but those that do genuinely enjoy my presence so much more, and it becomes a game to adjust/tweak my jokes to their tastes in turn, it adds a playful dimension to relationships. Also, people's humor can tell you things about their general boundaries and subjects of comfort, and it can also be an advantage for some people to steer clear of me, I think.>>42274523>luckily my bloodwork is mostly normal and i do not have liver cirrhosisOh thank fuck, nothing but the finest vibes for your goals, Anon.>>42277634Hey there :v, haven't seen you in a bit!

as somebody perma bpdemon brain and giga autist, i will never ever gain normative male social power. when i visit looksmaxxing forums i see only posts extolling the virtue of projecting an imaginary strength i know i simply cannot have and do not want. i am on a quest to accentuate and prolong my androgyne looks and i am looking for tips from people in similar situations to me. my current routine is minox fin estradiol shots retinol at night spf moisturiser azelaic acid solution and i used to use isotretinoin. any advice for a better routine ? considering oral collagen and peptide solutions but not sure if it’s worth the money
>>42309580Im doing okay, u were kind of an anomaly to me cuz I really couldnt figure out if you wanted to be trans and be a girl or not, but when u posted about taking estrogen I was still like hmmm is this nigga trans or just trying to stay a twink.
>>42309705it’s a kinda recent phenomenon. i’m low body fat so i shouldn’t need to worry too much about breasts cause there’s no fat to redistribute up there. full on transitioning does not help my end goal of Total Cute Boy Mogging to attract high value autistic males
>>42309557This may not be something most people are willing to try but eating beef liver. Im in the same situation people think im a pooner irl but i just wanna be a cute girly boy
>>42311050why beef liver . i’m a vegetarian… is beef liver meant to stimulate some chemical ?

What would it actually take for an incel ftm like me to get a cute submissive femrepper gf?
>>42311975>What do you want out of this (besides pussy)A cute mentally-ill gf to dote on>Why do you specifically want a femrepper?I'm into them being dysphoric and a little insecure>What will you feel if she poons out?Arousal. I won't let her get too masculine, so she'll have all the positives like looking androgynous and high libido and none of the negatives
>>42312024are mtfs off the cards? they fulfill all 3 of those apart from having a pussy
>>42312053It's just not the same dynamic at all
>>42312024>I won't let her get too masculineI guess that's why you specify submissive but I just don't think it's very realistic desu he'd just leave you or start to hate you. you're better of getting a hefab off the jump. More likely to actually be submissive, probably not as dysphoric but still insecure and still mentally ill
>>42312088Yeah you're right. Hefabs are better
Who's the best fictional trans character?
Viola from Lady for a Duke is PEAK. Deals with things in an actually super mature way and i really enjoyed it. Isn't about BECOMING trans, is about learning things from it and helping others.Thats what I want to find more of- less of the change, less of the dysphoria and *becoming* more of being and maybe its relavent but its not the point. LMK if you have any reccs tho
>>42307209very common, they see a character insecurely performing masculinity and think "waow he is literally me"
>>42308300>>42308195Not every trans character have to be shown without flaws. And as perfect mary sue. And there is enough of those in media overall. It is fiction, i want originality.
>>42307269good choicethat show made me think jason segel is a repper
>>42311269not a repper but he is surely attracted to trans women
Does this also apply to gays
>>42311420no
>>42311420No, if you have a dick you're game in the gay world. Also, Tony soprano was loaded, so women would want him regardless
>>42311420A lot of women especially theyfabs have weird or terrible taste like I'm pretty sure I've known women that would find Danny devito hot because they actually are put off by chud or masculine energy to the point where they prefer chopped earnest guys
Are transmaxxers actually real? Wouldn’t their reverse dysphoria be unbearable?
>>42310918I guess I'm just showing how they don't apply to me specifically I know some transbians would pretty much say true to all of them
>>42310875It's almost as if it's some propaganda piece written to manipulate impressionable, confused young men. But surely someone would never do that.
>>42310980It worked on me.I probably would've been resentful if it hadn't worked. But it did. So 10/10 troon propaganda :3
>>42310875#3 and #4 can be obtained with vibrators and patience. No transition needed.>>42310918>It is not clear that anything will benefit incels.#1 and #6 were of great benefit to me. Although I wish I could find a way to done down #6. Went from "no feeling" to everything being a tad bit too intense.>In fact if the benefits are trueThey are. Sorta. Terms and conditions may apply.>they should benefit normies just as wellThey should. And probably would.But studying this would be way too controversial.Trannies would deny the possibility (see most of this thread) and the Regime would rather not open this Pandora's box.It also doesn't help that most of the studies start from self-ID thus excluding trannies like me right from the get go lul
If this place weren't so terrible, I'd make a thread.Most of the answers here are cope.Transition is basically a version of body moding. There's nothing magical about it. It's a crude hack of the endocrine system that works (if done right) especially when added by some other cosmetic surgeries (ffs in particular). That's it.I don't contest the legitimacy of GD, but I do contest the idea that only GDs can/should do it.>actual transmaxxer

>>42312022what is confusing? troons who can't pass should manmode
>>42312040doesn't pass? you can fuck right off
>>42312040nobody is going to intentionally live in a way that makes them unhappy just to make some self-hating loser on the internet more comfortable
>>42312064How does being a hon make you happy? Nobody actually thinks they're women
>>42312064yasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

>cis girl friend who simps for Arca, Ethel Cain and similar trannies, treats me well BUT>tells me she hates bi guys because they aren't "manly" and "faggy" >makes fun of girly afabs with he/himMy gut tell me I shouldn't trust her at all
>>42301661>tells me she hates bi guys because they aren't "manly" and "faggy" happily engaged to my fem, faggy boyfriend that bullies my hole while she's a sinlge mean bitch>str8 t. ranny
>>42301661trust your gut, shes homophobic in sentiment and that means shell never actually see you as a person who deserves to live on their own terms
>>42301661>makes fun of girly afabs with he/himThis sounds like someone who is 100x more supportive of genuine trans people than the average cis person. Most allies see us as insane LARPers who are being placated because its really easy to do, someone who is dismissive of pronoun people but supportive of trannies likely supports us for the right reasons.
>>42301661>alliesif you use this unironically, there's no helping you
>>42301661I was going to say never trust "allies" but>makes fun of girly afabs with he/himis incredibly based and means that she actually knows there's a difference between cis people with pronouns and actual trannies. That's probably the best type of cis person you could meet. I wish I had a cis friend like that.
My female gender identity dissolved after years of stability, and now I feel like a man trapped in a woman's body. (I'm a natal male who got a sex change.)
>>42309028That's unfortunate. I get that feeling sometimes and I hate it. Still dysphoric though.

>>42309283>are you sure you didn’t get any breast growth?not in the last 2 years. the first year i did get some and then it kind of stopped, after that it does respond to me gaining weight/losing it size-wise but only slightly and they're still obviously cone-shaped and way too small for me to assume i did actually get adequate breast growth>is your chest area generally itchy, any skin conditions etc?1) no2) the feeling i get i would describe as like kind of more like a pain than an itch and i started getting it since starting hrt so i would assume that it is the same thing you are talking about, probablyit only happens rarely and i don't remember whether i was getting it more or kind of the same when i was actually getting breast growth, just it appears and then goes away after not long>if your tits itch by themselves but don’t grow that’s weirdwell at least now it doesn't happen often but also maybe it doesn't even correlate necessarily with growth in me or necessarily in everyone else (i have i think heard that not everyone gets the pain/it doesn't necessarily correlate with growth for everyone)so that's why i asked whether you did actually get any growth that you can see and i guess you aren't necessarily sure you did? or you didn't really answer whether you did get noticeable visually significant growth or not, or you kind of did answer and then you didn't when i asked again
>>42309389my partner says my tits are way bigger but i cant tell. they fluctuate in size during the day and also some days theyre soft in a gross way and look deflated and some days theyre solid and look healthyas far as i was aware, and in all my anecdotal experience: itch almost always means growth, growth does not always mean itch. theres just kinda not another good reason for them to itch like thatmaybe that isn’t true for you, idk
Has any ameritrannies ordered diy from outside the country after the tariffs were imposed? Im wondering how bad/risky it would be to order from otkphm, or if i should just wait and hope that open gate restocks in time. Plz help idk how any of this works esp for something gray market like this
>>42310814Astrovials isn't shipping to the US so that must mean something
>>42308817Are you on AR as well? Have you ordered from them? I know no one from here that has gotten DIY via any of the usual pages, so I'm hesitant to lose my moneyMy bone health is fine, got it tested a few months ago
