Why are men getting gender affirming surgery?https://x.com/i/status/1996203235493728523
>>533821194because people always take the easy way out and will do literally anything except lift heavy thing.
>>533821194What is gender affirming? It could be he doesnt want to look like a disgusting mess. Having a penis is all you need to reaffirm that you are indeed a man.
>>533821253The all have the same scars trannies have after breast reduction. Lol
>>533821194I considered something like this after I lost a bunch of weight, the flappy skin left after just made me feel like I'd wasted my time.
>>533822235Did you? Or did you fill it out again?
>>533822244I've put a little bit back on but im still quite a bit under where I was, never did get surgery. I cut like 115 lbs over the course of a year and the skin doesn't really adjust too well to that much weight loss that quickly, it sucks but at least I feel healthier, even if it still looks off.
>>533822433Damn. I have 60kg to lose, so im definitely going to look like shit. Kudos anyway. Maybe if I go slower ill be better off?
>>533821245Push ups, benching, and even cardio will only do so much to curb gyno. Gyno is actual breast tissue that forms due to a multitude of factors.>Hormone irregularities caused by excessive cannabis intake which releases estrogenic compounds>Alcoholism/hops/beer which also carries with it estrogenic effects>Prolactin flooding from excessive masturbation which releases stress hormones>Steroid or hormone use which causes hormone irregularities or excessive testosterone production which causes breast tissue to form to compensate >Childhood hormone irregularities which stem from obesity or conflicting testosterone production, thus forming breast tissue to compensateIt is an actual tissue that is differentiated from subcutaneous fat. There is no 'working off' gyno once it is formed during puberty, for example. Just a lifelong death sentence to your self-esteem. You can work out and make your chest more solid, but the only way to get rid of the tissue if its very pronounced is through surgery. Industrial society and its consequences, etc.
>>533822486I've heard the skin does adjust a little better if you don't lose weight too fast, but what I really should've done is try to fill up the space with more muscle. I pretty much just did cardio since it led to faster weight loss for me, but then there was barely any muscle underneath after the fat was all gone, leaving just the skin. If I had packed on more muscle it would probably look better.
>>533822760I've been accused of steroid abuse but I've had it since childhood. I ended up with severe body dysmorphic disorder because of it and I would avoid going swimming or taking my shirt off for years. Being low body fat actually makes it worse. I can totally understand why guys choose surgery.
>>533821253Gender affirming means aligning physical traits and social presentation with your internal identity. A trait with is normal for one gender could be a "disgusting mess" for another. You identify as a man and men generally don't have titties, so if you're a man and you do have titties you might want them removed.
>>533822760thank you for teaching me anon. Would estrogen in the water supply also contribute to this?
>>533823822It is my assumption that female birth control that is excreted into the water supply from women who take consumable birth control may aid in its development. Its already been shown that women's bodies don't properly filter a number of active compounds in the pill/consumables before it is cycles back into the water supply through urine or other mechanisms, and that they are stubborn once they are in the water supply. In that regard its largely unavoidable. In my view it stems mostly from lifestyle choices made in late childhood/puberty (particularly as it applies to masturbation, childhood obesity, and cannabis use) but residual compounds from birth control in the water supply has to be a contributing factor based on what's known about it. Sometimes gyno is triggered from an abundance of test production during puberty as well, which facilitates gyno development for the body to compensate, which a young person has no real control over. The rising prevalence of gyno development in men over the course of the past few decades may lend to the theory of residual compounds from birth control having to do with its development, though. In fact it may be one of the leading sole causes of it.
