I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO AN ACTUAL REALISTIC GIRL VOICE!!!!!!!

I'm a singer and learned how to sing as a girl. I took that same voice and applied it to speech and somehow I finally fking got it after this whole year of never getting one good word out in a fem voice. Now its like all at once, I can speak in complete sentences. Omg this is so insanely euphoric I feel like I'm on top of the world, I'm always so depressed and doubting I'm trans, and I finally am jumping up n down jaw dropped in amazement that I FINALLY DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it. I never thought I'd achieve it this soon. I'm in awe like looking at myself freaking out like omg how did I finally figure it out!?!?!?!?!?!??!?

So I'm trans mtf as well, and I know all the simple replacements. I'm more asking for something real passive aggressive for my shitty roommate (who's also mtf).

Something I can reply with when she says something annoything, "yeah man, whatever" cause I feel like, "yeah girl, whatever" is too "you go girl". Is there an equivalent for women?

I got breast augmentation last week. I’ve been dreaming of having this procedure done for years and now that it’s done I feel empty inside / numb. I’m asking myself all sorts of questions regarding myself and my future. I’m still sure that I’m tans and that I want to get other procedures done but like I can’t describe the feeling I’m living right now. Is there anyone who ever felt this way following a gender affirming surgery ?

I'm creating a chest piece with a tatoo artist and since I have no nipples, I thought I could use some funny, original lil motif in lieu of nipples. I thought of pentagrams, but I feel it's a been done so many times. I'm non binary. I like weird stuff like bones, bugs, minerals, cryptids... What would you suggest in place of a nipple? I'm not looking for underboob tat designs or things that are AROUND a pre existing nip, but a design to replace the nipples entirely. What would be your choice? What design would you find funny, or make you giggle when you raise your shirt? Taking any funny, original, weird recs as well

I’ve always been an exceptionally beautiful man I really took after my mother but I’ve always resented being a man I hate the facial hair the chest hair I hate how testosterone make me and other men act and after a decade of hating myself my wife approached me and told me it’s maybe time to try something new I want to start e but have no idea how or where to go I live in rural area of a red state who do I talk to where do I go ? Any and I mean any help would be very much appreciated

So, im waiting to start hormones next week and I started to get a little worried i guess. I started getting uncomfortable with the thought people seeing me and thought this might be a red flag that something was wrong.

I kept thinking and thinking about this and it finally hit me. Transitioning is for me and how I view and look at myself and feel about myself. I never like attention and going unnoticed, if I could clock in and out of work everyday without anyone remembering I exist then id be happy.

However transitioning is something I want to do for myself.

Hi, im still in the closet but i like to try diferents clothes more "feminine" (only with my friend or alone) and from the start i used a bra filler/pushup with some paper on the back to give a breast form and then a bra on top and it actually worked. I used to hide it under the mattress and one day i came back from school and my mom was removing the bed sheets and she found the bra filler.

I didnt want to come out like that so early, so i said it was for the school theater, cause that year existed a class called "cinema", my mom doubted a lot and asked a lot of question, but then she stopped cause im sure i was more red than a tomato.

It was like 1yr ago and never ask me anything about it or nearly close. But i think its fine i guess that she believed or i dont know but its kinda funny loking back.

Hello, i am trans, but i feel like my parents want to add "maybe" to that phrase, bascaly they say that beeing trans can be just a phase, i know that there is going to be a lot of survival bias, but do any one knoy if it was ever just a phase?

This is an update of this post right here. https://www.reddit.com/r/trans/s/440uKNLsR1

If you don’t feel like reading my previous post, the TLDR is that when I went the doctor she made some very inappropriate and transphobic comments to me after I updated my pronouns on my chart.

I received an email back from the manager of Patient Services. Unsure how to feel about it, but it is progress. I provided an Imgur link for anyone who’d like to read it.

TLDR: I went to the doctor to test for strep throat and she made some insensitive comments based on my preferred pronouns on my chart. Do I report her?

I am 18 years old and FtM. I don’t have the resources for a binder or medical transition of any kind because of my income and the state I live in.

My provider has a site where you can make appointments, view test results, etc. One of the options is to input your preferred pronouns, preferred name, gender identity and other things. I gathered the courage to change my preferred pronouns to he/him/his.

I am fairly fem presenting, I live in a very conservative state and am afraid to dress masc when I go places I know I might be judged. It’s something I need to work on, it’s something I wanna work on. Though I am transgender, I think clothing doesn’t connect with gender. Never has.

The two nurses called me in, asked questions, did their stuff. Both very nice people who used my preferred name. Then, the doctor came in. She asked me routine questions and I communicated that my friend was recently diagnosed with a very contagious cold and I’d just seen him Saturday. I don’t remember the order that everything happened, but eventually she questioned my chart. “Your chart says you use male pronouns. Is this still accurate?” I reply with a simple confirmation. She then states, “Well, don’t be offended when people don’t use male pronouns. You don’t dress/look like it.” (Note this isn’t word-for-word) I held back tears- I’ve just began to be more open about being trans. I held it together until I got out of the building and broke down.

I don’t understand why she felt the need to make that comment. Nothing about my visit had anything to do with my reproductive health or gender identity, nonetheless the way I present myself. When I got dressed this morning I didn’t think about whether or not people could tell I use he/him pronouns, and I never do. I dress how I want. I wore some pants my mom gave me and a shirt I love, along with my favorite jewelry.

My friend says report her, but I don’t know. I felt as if I was just inconveniencing her because I took a maximum of 10 minutes of her time.

I just wanted to vent and see what people have to say. Do I report her, and if so, who do I report her to? Thank you guys, much love. 🩷🏳️‍⚧️

Hi, I'm in northern NJ (near NYC) and I'm trying to get my prescription fulfilled for Testosterone Cyp 100mg/mL. Thing is, all thr pharmacies I've tried seem to not offer this concentration/medication.

I've also been on a low dose (0.25mL weekly), so my endo is saying that 100mg/mL is ideal compared to 200mg/mL since it's easier to draw.

Does anyone else ever have these issues, and does anyone have any recommendations?

(TW: Transphobia) theres a new fucking law in canada where if you use a name or pronouns not assigned to your birth sex at school a teacher must ask parents for permission to use them or they can lose they're job, i am closeted as fuck and my parents are transphobic idk what to do i'm scared and i also want to punch whoever made this goddamn law in the face because i'm just trying to live my goddamn life and not spiral back into depression i hate the government so much is there something wrong with me that made people hate trans people idk and i'm scared for my life because maybe the teachers i told my name and pronouns will out me because of the new law even though it was cool before and things are going even worse because the club i like that i felt accepted into, dnd, might get cancelled because the teaching strike too i am freaking out i need help

This is just a random rant that came to me. So sorry if it’s clunky

I’m a trans man, 20 years old. Before, I was a very skinny, pretty (Perceived as) girl. Now I’m overweight, have an early Norwood 3 hairline, and don’t have great facial hair.

And you know what? I’m the happiest I’ve been in my life. Point blank period. No question about it.

I mean, sure, I’m not thrilled about being fat and balding now- I’m not gonna bullshit you and say that I’m not insecure, because I am.

But my body is mine now. I feel like me, the good and the bad. I’m more confident, I’m generally a nicer person to be around because I’m not miserable all the time- I’d much, much rather look how I do now than have grown up to be a beautiful woman. Transitioning has saved my life, and no amount of weight gain or hair loss will ever negate that fact.

I say this, because a lot of transphobes justify their beliefs by comparing before and after photos (especially of trans men) like “UGH!! Look at what she did to her body, she was GORGEOUS and NOW she looks like THIS!!” Which is a fallacy. Aesthetics don’t equal happiness or moral virtue. It’s literally caveman level thinking.

Soo- I guess basically don’t listen to those people. If you wholeheartedly feel that medically transitioning will help you become your best self, but you’re worried about how you’ll look, DO it. Any insecurities you -might- get will be so miniscule compared to the dysphoria you feel now. You don’t owe looking a certain way to anybody, live your life for you.

Where do I find a cool name? I recently transitioned socially, and am wondering how to find a feminine name to potentially use.

I'm so non conventional and honestly, sometimes it even upsets me. I used to be very stereotypical, like wanting to go on T, doing masc contour whenever I could, etc but now I'm almost 20 and since I've let myself express myself the way I wanna, I did a full 180: I dress fem most of the time, I am very proud and aware of my body and I really don't plan on going on T since I don't see many things that would improve my quality of life.

I view myself as a very femboy who only really wants top surgery and if It could be possible, I'd like male genitalia but sadly that's not possible with modern technology yet:/ I'm trying to accept that this is just how I am but... I feel like a fraud sometimes, like I am nonbinary or so but I really don't like that term when it's applied to me.

Idk why I'm venting... guess I'm just trying to find approval and maybe someone who feels similarly?

Wanted to get some opinions because I’m not sure if I’m overthinking.

I was hired at a bowling alley 2 weeks ago as a desk operator. I pass as male completely but am not legally transitioned. I’m new to a rural, red area in the South. I didn’t turn in any legal paperwork until the other week, and I was effectively stealth before this. I turned in my direct deposit form, which had my very feminine legal name, then my preferred name in parentheses after it. I give it to the main manager (H) who gives it to the other manager who signs my paychecks (L).

L takes me aside and says: “What name is your bank account under?” Me: “[Deadname], that’s my legal name.” L: “That’s your LEGAL name?” Me: “Yeah, that’s my legal name.” L: “Like, that’s your REAL name?” Me: “That’s my legal name.” Then he does the whole “Oh, I don’t have a problem with that” thing in that tone that says he probably does have a problem with it.

At this point, I had already been scheduled for the following week. I work and nothing seems off, everyone is gendering me the same and using the same name, even L and H. So far, I’ve been told I’m doing a good job and haven’t gotten many critiques. Then I get a pointer from a different manager and a coworker that H thinks I should use a more upbeat tone when I’m talking over the loudspeaker. I admit I don’t sound very upbeat, but I didn’t think it was much of a problem. I’d only used the loudspeaker a few times before but during this shift I tried to seem more upbeat. I didn’t get any feedback on it.

Yesterday, the schedule came out and I had zero shifts. I texted H asking if there was a reason I had no shifts and she didn’t answer (she usually responds almost immediately). Today, I sent a question mark and she called me a while later. She just said: “We decided to go a different route with the desk, you can drop your work shirts off when you have time.” I asked what she meant and she confirmed they were letting me go. I asked why and she said “We’re looking for someone with a different personality.”

According to the schedule and groupchat, they only have two brand new employees who just began training, and are not even working the desk. In the past 2 weeks, they lost/fired three employees including me, not including the one I replaced. Apparently, when I applied, they were “so excited” because they were really urgently hiring, and in general, the place always seemed understaffed. So it really makes no sense that I was fired over something that was only commented on one time. This is also a $10/an hour position and a not very prestigious place.

So I recently got my name and gender on my ID legally changed. I have now begun the process of “fixing” all my previous records. I went to my old college and got a new alumni ID, no sweat. Then I decided to stop at my old high school….which was an all boys Catholic high school.

So I walk on in, dressed in a pink dress, make up and hair done. I have a passing fem voice and have learned how to hold myself as a lady should, even if I don’t always pass. They didn’t ask to see ID at the door, and just showed me to the office when I said I had an administrative question. I got into the office and a man comes up to me and says he’s the principal and shows me to his office.

I told him I was asking if a transcript could have the name changed on it if it were legally changed. He said, “so uh is this for your brother?” And thats when I realized he hadn’t clocked me as trans.

I said, “no it’s for me, I’m class of 2016”, and his eyes widen a bit as he realizes the implications. He apologizes and says he will look into it. He says, “we haven’t had someone in your…situation, before” and I smile and say I understand and am thankful. I give him my contact info and we chat about the football team.

Then I ask to use the bathroom. He stammers for about ten seconds, deciding how to handle this request, before going, “yeah uh the women’s room is down the hall here”. And so I got to use the school’s only dedicated women’s room.

I haven’t found out if they’ll be ale to fix my name, but I sent a follow up email thanking him and telling him I appreciated his kindness.

Hi, I (16M) am a cis male. I hace recently started to question that however, especially since I have been getting increasingly more uncomfortable in my own skin. Things like dark hairs on my legs, my beard, my voice and some other masculine features have started to seem more like a curse rather than a blessing. Instead I've started to feel more drawn towards feminine features as well as feminine clothing in general (thigh highs, etc.). I am quite frankly not really that happy with a future as a man, yet, as of now, am just as unsure of a potential future as a woman. Although that thought is definetely growing on me. So basically, i wanted to get some advice on how to test the waters, or in other words, figuring myself out.

like thos is quite literally my last day before i start HRT, and just knowing that ill finally get what i want after waiting for so long is just feels like a dream. can anyone relate?

I (afab) have been questioning my gender for quite a while and during this summer had a lot of gender dysphoria. I finally got the currage i never had to cut my hair short and i thought i’d get a huge kick of gender euphoria, just like i got whenever i even imagined myself in that moment before, but actually i didn’t feel much.

Don’t get me wrong, the longer i have the cut and the more i’m getting used to it, the more i enjoy it. I love that i can dress masc and actually look kinda masc, but i didn’t get the euphoria.

Also, i still get gender dysphoria (many times from more feminine things i didn’t mind before), so maybe the cut was really the step in the right way? Can i still be trans even if i didn’t get that euphoria?

I (21 mtf) got a sister and her gf that just got a puppy (4 month old) this week, the puppy was found by a shelter in the train, and was owned by nomads before. The puppy is known to be scared of man, barking and trying to bite when seeing one. All the men in both side of family couldn't even approach her without getting bitten. But she never once even got aggressive towards me and went straight to jumping on me to lick my face the moment she met me. Idk if she can smell hormones or if I just passed the vibe check but nothenless Thanks little puppy. You've made my day

I'm trapped I feel like I'm a shitty wax staute I've felt like this for 2 years no doubts only 2 people in my life know a close freind and a sister so anyway it isn't a faze or just a passing feeling it is strong and has grown roots I don't want to live a grey hollow life as only half of me so should I just do it? Even if it has negative consequences? I want to be loved as who I am not this act for my safety but at the same time don't want to hurt people I care about deeply even if its making me decay. Anyway hopefully I get good advice and that I've been clear not confusing in Anyway
