  • I mean, we're all play acting at being whatever gender; cis people too even. Gender is a performance, it's gonna take practice no matter when you start and no matter what you look like when you start. Why not start practicing now?

  • Chat I think I'm falling in love again. I must have the kind of swag that trans guys love, because in addition to all my closest friends bring trans guys, every one I have matched with on a dating app for the past year and a half has been a trans guy. I'm pan, so I feel this is statistically unlikely, but I'm not complaining lol. But, I matched with a new guy recently and it's going so well and he's completely my type

    Idk how I keep pulling cute boys, I am hideous. But I'm happy

    God I love boys!! I could never have imagined that 5 years ago, lol. My love for non-boys has always been there, and hasn't gotten any less. But it wasn't till I figured out that I wasn't a boy that I realized I like boys

  • I've been doing esketamine treatments for a while. In my experience, they have helped a good bit, but shrooms have been a good bit more effective (probably at least partly cuz I can take a big dose, but with the legal esketanine they just give you a fixed dose)

  • Same. Like, if I wasn't forced into a gender from birth, and there was no social pressure to have one, then if I did still decide that I want breasts, to be on estrogen and not testosterone, then would I even be trans in anything like the way I am now? Or would that be more like getting a tattoo or piercing is now.

    Like in the future i want, things would be so different, I don't think the categories we have now would even apply (for the most part, at least)

  • Hmm, maybe I need to watch dirty pair, lol.

    My 100% vibes based analysis is that 0.5-1% and 3% are both low. Both for the reasons you mentioned, but also because I feel like in a more open society there would be a lot more agender, non-binary (non-trinary? for societies with a 3rd gender), people doing thier own gender, etc. Like even in a society with a third gender, while that's better than just two, there is still a lot of pressure to be one of those three, yeah? In guess I feel like too many studies shit trans people still are too binary focused. But idk. Do you work in stats? You probably know more on this than me

  • What's the left-handed graph? I'm not familiar.

    Personally, I imagine that, in a society that was truly free of gender-based oppression and where people weren't forced into gender at birth, most people wouldn't even have a gender (though probably a few people would, like as a hobby kinda?). But I could be totally wrong on that. I think you can really only guess how many people would be trans or whatever else once so the bullshit is removed: we're too deep in the bullshit to have any real idea.

  • It's something special, not something to hide away

    Agree! I love being trans!

    And I understand wanting to be safe and wanting to not have to deal with transphbic comments, worry about violence, etc. But assimilation isn't a real path towards that, only dismantling patriarchy is.
