any other nb ppl here who went thru the whole trooning arc then sort of stopped trying to present as fem while still taking hrt and felt a lot happier because of it? Do u consider it cope or no? I feel like I just genuinely might be non binary and that the whole trans thing was me just trying to fit in. I have less people close to me who I can relate to now but it's a lot more comfortable being in my own skin
yeah exactly that happened to me too
boomp
>>41518529it's easier cause it's comfortable. if there was no repercussions, no hardships, just an easy way to "transition fully" and pass, would you do it? I can settle in the role of a feminine boy or whatever, but hm.
>>41518529I consider going on HRT and then just acting like nothing is different. I will always see myself as a male cuz I have male parts and a (fairly) male mindset but I would just prefer looking cute and in general “more feminine.” I think this means I’m non-binary but to be honest who cares about labels. Males can look like girls and have girl traits and still be males and that’s okay.
>>41518903nta but I wouldn't - I'm enby, not trans. Becoming a passing woman won't improve my life I feel
>>41518529im afab and have always been confused as to whether or not im a trans guys but i think i'm just non binary, gonna get my tits cut off and see how i feel about t after thati know how you feel i think and youre feelings are very valid love <3
>>41518529i do this and its working out real good and it makes me happy ^^
>>41518529I was on HRT for three years. Don't regret it for a second. Very happy with my androgyny. I like being able to express both my masculinity and femininity as I please, and not worrying so much about fitting myself into binary boxes for the sake of other people's feelings.
>>41518529hrt sneeds arent new
>>41519103And you quit?
>>41519218Yep
>>41519232Why
>>41519253Cause they didn't want to become a full women?
>>41519253My hair was falling out
>>41519265Are you her lawyer or something to answer on her behalf?
>>41518903It might be easier physically but it's definitely harder socially. Appearing as a very feminine guy, or straight up letting people know that you're nonbinary will get you ostracized a lot more than just being seen as a woman.
>>41519265HRT doesn't turn you into a woman
>>41519271Oh you are a poon okay Could have tried some monoxidil
>>41518529i wish i was cute
>>41519275Not sure what you're talking about. Looking 100% like a chick and behaving 100% like a man will render you a pretty shitless experience compared to the opposite: looking 100% like a man and acting 100% like a chick.
>>41519291Temporary solution for a permanent problem, unfortunately. Minox hair falls out when you stop taking the medicine.
>>41519330Neither of those are scenarios we're talking about here. We're talking the difference between transitioning fully, or something in between, from the AMAB perspective.
>>41519362It's only temporary if it stopped taking itIt's like when you commit a crime it only becomes a crime when someone finds out about it
>>41519367What I described is an in between transition. Medical transition without a social transition. It only sucks if you're a poon plus you'll be bald
>>41519385>Medical transition without a social transitionNo one does that.
>>41519408MANMODERS HELLO???
>>41519408I absolutely do
>>41518529idk like i feel so much better without T in my body and i dont wanna be a man, but other than that, i feel like i dont really care? like i've known so many people who crash out hard about not being a 100 percent female woman and i dont really relate to that at all. i just wanna be pretty
Why is it always poons quitting hrt
>>41519429cause they're injecting a chemical that rapidly decays your physical appearance in exchange for enhanced dexterity??
>>41519415Either way, that's still not the point here. You're just trying to turn this into an amab vs afab thing, dumb poonerIt's about transitioning fully, socially AND medically or going for an in-between state, socially AND medically, i.e. nonbinary. The latter is easier to achieve physically but will give you a harder time socially, again from the amab perspective, what this conversation was about from the beginning. Your experiences as a pooner are not relevant to this.
>>41519441they should be forced to deal with it like we did
>>41519452I'm not a pooner and my social experiences have not changed due to me being on HRT. I've always been a fruit, now I just look a bit fruitier.
>>41519465Do you talk with a based MEF fagcent
>>41519480No I've been told I sound like a cartoon character
>>41519465>my social experiences have not changedlucky yousuper lucky youextremely lucky youenbies are like the one queer group even other queers including binary trannies liberally will discriminate against
>>41519496how so?
>>41519495Can i hear it please
>>41519501Just take a look any time anyone here tries to make a thread about it.
>>41518529my only real priority is medically transitioning and looking androgynous to other people. i dont think saying im nb is fully a cope, but i do think if i looked better to start, maybe id feel differently about calling myself a binary trans woman instead of just an nb.
>>41519524Yeah I mean here is different but irl I don't get any backlash, but it also mostly doesn't come up because German doesn't have they/them, just it/its and I'd rather not fw that so I just go by he/him.>>41519515Nö :P
