Trans Masc - Tumblr Posts

(90% sure this is Anatoli Nikich-Krilichevski, a soviet era artist. I spent like 20 minutes looking for the source of this painting, but it was too lovely to pass up)

transphobes calling trans people confused for their gender is just a cover up for the fact that the transphobe is confused. I know you cannot fathom the complexities of my gender, but that's not my issue lmfao.

Hold onto my soul while I rail you like a bitch lol

There's characters I think are fun to read as trans masc for my own enjoyment, characters I enjoy building a case *to* read as trans masc, one or two rare characters I genuinely think can be theorized to *be* canonically trans masc

And then there's Heinz Doofenshmirtz, who i do not believe was ever at any point intended to be canonically a trans man, but somehow the evidence is against him.

colors in my thighs

the restricting feeling on my chest is so good i can barely breathe but its so good

running my hands down a smooth smooth surface crying quietly inside

"how do you feel?"

i feel more than i can explain

the pure joy is incomprehensible youll never understand but he will he understands

Just seen a top surgeon offer a 10% discount if you and your pal go the same day???? That's insane???? Private healthcare is evil.

So👀

when a tgirl asks if you want to see her tits there's only one answer

Transmascs need to normalize saying "my dick exploded" when we have a period

Omg i do that to cis men 😍

I loveeee my gf >:3

She has taught me how to live a normal life out side of my mental health

For my perimenopause transmascs waffling about starting T

42 year old transmasc enby, only recently decided to start T because I'm fucking tired of getting misgendered as a woman - I had my first shot a little more than two weeks ago.

Meanwhile, I've been dealing with perimenopause symptoms for more than two years - hot flashes at night, and other weird shit. I also had the vague notion that perimenopause was fucking with my mental health - in the past couple of years I've had to increase my brain meds to pretty high dosages, and I never was entirely happy with how they were working.

But it was also impossible to quantify how much of that could be perimenopause and how much was just Going Through It with:

Going no contact with my mom for being a fucking transphobe

Getting laid off in April

Parenting a neurodivergent 12 year old

Dealing with a resurgence of dysphoria and deciding to do more medical transition

And I'm here to tell you all that shit about T MAKES YOU ANGRIER is just. Like. Scaremongering????? Because 2 weeks in I feel more clear-headed than I have in the last three years.

Which honestly feels pretty:

For real, I didn't realize the amount of brain fog I was dealing with until I woke up a couple days ago and went... wait. Why is everything.... not foggy????

So. Yeah. 42 year old transmasc enby who waffled for years about T, have struggled with my mental health for a few years and assumed it wasn't related to perimenopause, and two weeks into doing T I feel more clear-headed than I have in a long-ass time.

The horrors shall be returning in a few weeks may whatever horrible god save us all

First day of highschool pray for me

Having your deadname be somewhat common sucks cus there's a girl in my class with my deadname so when the teacher was calling her I being the dumb fuck that I am said "it's 'chosen name'" when the teacher was not talking to me

Hey, you your deadname is the stupidest fucking name on the planet and your chosen name, very nice, good job picking it out

last thursday night, i spent hours researching hrt. i told my best friend. i was 87% sure i wanted to do it. he said, “can i play devil’s advocate?” and i said, “yes,” and he said, “are you sure you want to do it? its a permanent change.”

i laughed.

(i say shit without thinking. i will always say yes to him without thinking. i won’t think about the consequences with him. that’s what happens when this shit is indescribable.)

i get where he’s coming from. but i feel weird, wasn’t it painful to watch me struggle for years to insist i was a girl when i so clearly never quite wore it right? do you really think this is something i’ve decided overnight?
