Locker rooms & anxiety

I got my second shot a little over 2 weeks ago, so things are slowly starting to return to normal. I have a younger sibling who's not yet fully vaccinated so still not completely back to normal (and also just I'm definitely going to be more cautious and try to limit any sort of close encounters with...

Masturbation

Generally when I'm masturbating I can get away with just using what I make, but sometimes it'll start to dry out a little, and when that happens I like to pee just enough so that it's slippy again. Is there any reason to not do that? It really turns me on and I can't think of any specific reason it'...

HRT with unsupportive(?) parents

So I recently turned 18 and I can now legally get HRT without my parents' consent, which is good because they don't think it's a good idea (and are only sometimes supportive of me with regards to names/pronouns). The problem is I'm entirely financially dependent on them, but like I don't know how th...

Re: Bottom Surgery confliction?

I'll admit I don't know much about the topic, but when I was looking through bottom surgery stuff I found that there's a procedure that will give you a vagina while keeping your penis, it's very creatively called penile-preserving vaginoplasty. I think that that uses scrotal tissue but I'm not a doc...

Re: Discussing HRT with parents

That's probably a good idea about avoiding that particular subject for now. Unfortunately I'll probably need to discuss that at some point because that's expensive, but I guess I'll cross that bridge when I get there. As for the chest dysphoria, I think they just will straight up not believe me and ...

Discussing HRT with parents

I'm pretty nervous about talking to my parents about starting HRT. For one, if they ask me why I want to, I don't think answering with the whole truth will go too well. The main reason I want to start HRT is that I have pretty bad chest dysphoria, but I worry that my parents (who I think still see m...

Friendships during covid and trust issues

So this is something I've been struggling with for a while and I don't know where else to go with this. I am discussing parts of this with my therapist but I'm still not fully comfortable with him yet so I needed a place to ask for advice more or less anonymously. Background information: I'm a senio...

Re: Queer Platonic relationships

More than friends but not fully romantic is an okay definition of a QPR, but I wouldn't use it personally because I don't like the implication that qprs and romance is more important than friendship. I'd say a better definition is a committed (though not necessarily exclusive) long-term relationship...

Bathrooms

I'm agender, and while I'd love to be able to use gender-neutral bathrooms, it's not always doable. There aren't any at my school (save staff ones, which you have to get special permission to use from the counseling office, are at the back end of beyond, and you'll often get questioned). They also a...

Weird things about affection

So I am a very physically affectionate person, as are my friends, we (at least pre-COVID we did) spend a lot of our time together cuddling and almost always greet each other with hugs and "love you"s and so on and so forth. Lately, I've noticed that I've wanted to do things with them that ...

Fantasies and ethics

I have a bunch of fantasies involving being outside and I think I could conceivably follow through on one of them, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea or entirely ethical. Basically I want to masturbate outside, and like not in my backyard or something, but a more open area. I have a spot in mind, ...

Anxiety about the future

Some background information: I'm a senior in high school, we probably won't be back to in-person learning until after I graduate, I'm aromantic and polyamorous. I'm also non-binary, I have several squishes (all unreciprocated), and want to go on E at some point but can't at the moment because my par...

Re: Penis Insecurities

First of all, that article has been really helpful. I intend to push back next time they bring it up, though it probably won't come up for a while because we're all stuck inside and. I want to go along the lines of "this is just how my body is, you guys saying things like that are really causin...

Re: Penis Insecurities

Thanks for the reply! I would love some help figuring out how to bring that up, and also how to unlearn some of the stuff I've been taught about sex. I've avoided confronting my parents seriously about it because whenever I say they're being unreasonable I usually get something like "too bad&qu...

Penis Insecurities

As the subject says, I've had some insecurities with my equipment. I'm about 8.5 inches hard and it's made life a pain. Everything I do and everywhere I go I'm worried that people are staring at my bulge. Whenever I hear laughing at school or in public I always think that it's because the outline is...
