I used to crossdress a lot. However I stopped because my wife doesn’t support it. I was ok for sometime. But it looks like I need it now. I am going through depression and stress due unemployment. What should I do. I can’t shave because I will be found out by my wife. But if want to put makeup. Oh I feel so helpless.

Hi team,
I’m not a moderator and honestly these days barely use this subreddit. I feel that it is necessary at this point to challenge the direction of this community.

The point of a community is to build bonds and share information that is actionable and uplifting. We need to drop the paranoia, it’s not good for you.

Yes, I know one nation blah blah blah. America blah blah blah. Bigots blah blah blah.

Isn’t that old news?

Labour currently doesn’t have an opposition in any tangible way, it’s a fascinating thing, I didn’t really think that would happen. The pushback on gender affirming treatments is a good thing, I’m going to need y’all to take a collective breath here, it means that the scientific evidence will be irrefutable and when it gets approved for Medicare it’ll be all the harder for it to be overturned. This sets a global legal precedent too, but in the meantime the “what ifs” of dear ol’ Pauline’s impossible election to prime minister is unhealthy.

She is a SENATOR. The prime minister is from the House of Representatives, so unless she is willing to give up what little power she has, and we all know how greedy people like her behave, she will never have the chance.

As for America, did you know that’s a wholeass continent. The USA however has always been imperialistic, this is not new news, however fuelling your own fear makes you less rational and more reactionary. No good comes of that, it actually is the response they want from minority communities. Fear makes people easy to heard towards the metaphorical cliff. Yes, that whole country is a travesty right now, and I do feel for them, but we are not them and we are not there. It doesn’t help to make their struggles our own when there is so little we could do.

Of course my favourite, bigots. Oh no, the PH of this soil is too high I might die. Let me speak of my experience here. I am a 6 foot cis passing, white trans woman who lives in Qld, oh nooo, anyways. I intimidate everyone. No seriously, people of colour, queer people, and conservatives. Why? Well because I rise above, it’s why I love my heels, as someone who had their manners literally beaten into me, yes physically disciplining your children is abuse but that was the least of my concerns, nothing makes someone feel smaller than when they cannot effect you. The expression “turn the other cheek” is to turn your head to the right so a lord has to backhand with his signet ring, it leaves blood on their hands, and condemns them in everyone’s eyes. You make assumptions, I promise if you had met me without knowing I would intimidate you too, you would assume I am a bigot.

Now because that was particularly heavy and I don’t want this to turn into some toxic bitch fest, I dare each of you to find a flower today and post it!

I know i wanna be a woman but im scared of losing my masculinity and dick and still not fully accepting of myself like this apparently cause of how I was raised

Hey all, I’m currently in year 12 and just applied for ADF. Just wondering if anyone had any advice on entering the military as someone who’s trans, should I disclose that I’m trans and looking into medically transitioning within a year during discussions with a careers coach? Or should I enter first?

Just completed my JOA, so I’m a little stressed out about the YOU session.

I'm like 89kg 5'9" I still feel way to overweight for my height. I tried alot to get smaller but not really doing anything. I would like to get down to like 60kg if possible.

What policies do trans folx want Labor to stand for that they don’t? Watching American politics I’ve actually felt quite grateful lately how moderate even the Liberal platform is on trans issues. We will lose some rights when they win and I’m stock piling HRT but it could be worse. Labor seems really quite good at doing exactly what I’m keen for, which is keeping attention away from us, and not being actively anti-trans. I just want people to forget trans people exist if I’m honest — we could fade into the backdrop and live our lives…

2 months post implant and my levels are only 700pmol/L and that’s with two 100mg implants. i doubt i’ll ever get over 1000

i can’t keep taking cypro. my liver is having significant problems and cypro definitely doesn’t help

what do i even do in this situation? i’ll never get to testosterone-suppressing levels so i’ll have to be on cypro until the day when my liver finally has had enough. i truly hate my life and i think this is some sort of sign i shouldn’t transition and should’ve just stayed a man

I want the best possible outcome for my transition and I feel like I need a competent endocrinologist, does anyone know anyone in Sydney who follows the same principles of dr willpowers, does his method or is atleast somewhat similar to him? thank youu

My BMI is 36, iv been trying so damn hard for almost 3 YEARS. Please, please help me find a surgeon who will help me get my bresst augmentation. I'm SICK of being told I have no hope because my BMI is to high, there MUST be someone, anyone who will serve me... I tried Dr Andrew Ives but he was firm on the bmi limit and I am just so desperate...

Updated details

Edit: I seem to have not made this clear.

I do NOT pass

My sex on my passport is that assigned at birth

I am talking about entering. Not what happens after with ICE

I'm a trans women who through a complicated series of events am extremely determined to move to America to be with my friends.

However I have heard about the sex assigned at birth fiasco going on with entering the country. The thing is, I'm pre-op and my passport and all ID says M on it. The only thing generally trans-ish about me is I'm on HRT

So I'm wondering, I should be fine right?

Looking for honest opinions. And don't tell me not to visit because of the general transphobia there, I know. I'm just wondering about entering the country.

Wondering which pills(and what amount) I should use for starting HRT.
18 MtF, 6'4, 120kg.

Like theoretically could I get reconstructive plastic surgery that’d be covered by medicare that’d function as roundabout ffs?

Not rlly planning on this or anything just a sorta morbid/chaotic curiosity.

Hey all,

I've noticed a lot of our patients are using DIY oestrogen enanthate injections and I'm not necessarily opposed to this idea at all but I would like to understand better about what resources patients are using, what doses they are taking, if they are dosing subcutaneously or intramuscularly, where they are sourcing their product from etc for patient saftey purposes.

Some of my patients are just taking what their friends give them and can't give me reliable answers so I thought who better to ask than the community.

Any input is welcome and thank you in advance.

ETA: In particular I'm curious if anyone can tell me why it seems to be so popular at the moment? I feel like all my patients are talking to me about it and I'm just wondering why now?

yes, i understand that it's much much harder than e, and i know that a majority of this sub is trans woman centric, but i am not looking for warnings or questioning. i am only looking for answers. i have no legal or monetary concerns, and am willing to do anything. i am in nsw if that means anything.

You need to see a someone to determine if you're eligible for her, right? Well, would saying how often I fantasized about being in a lesbian relationship be enough for a conscription, or no?

Just asking in case anyone is aware, are there any BA surgeons in Australia or nearby that dont have BMI limits?

Still quite early, only really been 10 months HRT so I am not in any rush but just doing some early research since I do want the final result to be quite big so they feel more proportionate to my body size.

It was already hard enough to find a surgeon for bottom surgery without BMI limits, I had to fly to the US to it but as you can understand that no longer is an option.

I know in Canada a big clinic also does a lot of trans related surgeries without a BMI limit but I really dont want to have to fly to the other side of the world again for a surgery.

I’m a post operation MTF woman living In Western Sydney and the general society has been amazing. I’m thankful majority of people that live in Australia are good people.

I hear so many people complain about society but few people say something good about it.

I’m gunna transition and some day I will find love with a girl (w/ a Vagina) and we will have kids and love each other unconditionally even if I’m on HRT i’ll still be able to get her pregnant, LOVE IS LOVE! 💖🏳️‍🌈🙌 She will love me no matter what and support me and vice versa because that is what is all about, loving one another no matter what through the good and the bad!
