Re: HRT and Surgical Menopause

I don’t mean to be rude. I know I’ve come off that way. I apologize for exaggerating. I haven’t been in school for over a month at this point because of emotional instability. I am completely unable to receive any gender related care until January 3rd once I’ve turned sixteen. This is a law Planned ...

Re: HRT and Surgical Menopause

Hi. I'll correct a point you made in mentioning that I am "early in puberty". I am not. I have been in puberty since I started growing pubic hair at eight years old, and had my first period at nine. I understand that puberty likely will not be ending for me any time soon, but that doesn't ...

Re: HRT and Surgical Menopause

Hi. The surgery I've looked into specifically is called a full hysterectomy, which involves removal of both ovaries, the uterus, and adjoining structures like the cervix. This produces an effect similar to naturally occurring menopause, which is why it's referred to as surgical menopause. The only o...

HRT and Surgical Menopause

Hi. I’ll be succinct this time, I’m looking to go through surgical menopause as soon as possible (there doesn’t seem to be any other tenable option to alleviate crippling dysphoria and PMDD) and I’m wondering how HRT will factor into this. From what I understand, post menopause women usually take th...

Coming of Age in Karhide: a short story I really didn't like

I really liked The Left Hand of Darkness the first time I read it. The cultures of the planet Gethen were fascinating to read about, and the differing perspectives of the first-person narrating characters were really interesting. I also, of course, have a very personal attachment to the biology of G...

Resources for practicing safe sadomasochism?

Hi again! As I’m sure many of you volunteers know I’ve gotten a lot out of your site over the past couple years. There is one thing I can’t really look to here for, though, which is my interest in sadomasochism. This pretty reasonable, as even the most basic education about the regular sex stuff can...

Re: Menstrual hygiene while on cycle inhibitors?

Thanks! I realize now that the doctor I spoke to probably wasn’t all that knowledgable about bleeding on testosterone (I don’t live in the most trans populated area) and most likely just said what sounded like a rational response. I also wasn’t aware that IUDs stalled menses. I was under the impress...

Menstrual hygiene while on cycle inhibitors?

Hi! I’ve been taking birth control pills for a few months due to my PMDD. While the bleeding itself is a very large annoyance, I personally find I don’t really mind it as long as I’m not in a particularly stressful situation (ie, over Spring Break I have zero qualms with dealing with my periods), an...

Re: Thoughts on sharing NSFW art online?

Hi! I’ve reconsidered everything I’ve said after having today a) been blocked by a mutual for making even a casual joke about vore and b) stumbling upon an adult who talked about how “SFW” vore communities are genuinely just allowing minors into adult spaces as an opportunity to groom them. This is ...

Re: Thoughts on sharing NSFW art online?

My mistake!

I mean making an account and sharing more sensitive artwork. I would also like to restate tha...

Thoughts on sharing NSFW art online?

Back in like, 2021, I wanted to write some smut. It had been most of my pornographic intake for a few months so I decided, hey, why not give it a shot? The problem here was that I was— and still am— extremely paranoid about being found out. I didn’t want it in my Pages, Notes, or anywhere else anyon...

Re: Finding a balance between sex repulsion and sex negativity?

I suppose you’re right; I really don’t have the expertise, patience, or debate skills to weasel this squick out of him. But damn, does it not annoy me anyway. I guess it is funny, though, that in a way he’s kind of right. To him, his genitals are just utilities or gag props, while to me mine are, in...

Hello! Haven’t touched this board in a while, but I thought I might share a little more, since this topic has come up again since I last posted.

Finding a balance between sex repulsion and sex negativity?

My brother (older than me by a year) is sex repulsed. It’s pretty easy to see from the way he acts; he covers his eyes when two people do as much as kiss. I don’t really think his aversion to sex is a problem in and of itself, if I had to cite a concern about it, it would be to make sure he knows it...

Re: Masochism versus self-harm?

Alright, that’s good to know. Mostly, I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t stepping out of line by maintaining my boundaries like this, even to a psychiatrist or someone similar. It’s nice to have my secrets, but I know it’s also important to have people you can confide in— in case I step out of line...

Masochism versus self-harm?

I had a check-up with my medicine lady this week (can’t remember the professional term) and she asked me the usual questions, “any recent breakdowns, any suicidal thoughts, etcetera-etcetera”, and I responded “no, no, no”, but the problem is I still said “no” when she asked if I had self-harmed rece...

Re: What will testosterone do to my sex drive?

Unfortunately, not a lot of progress has been made in actually talking to healthcare providers about it, considering that even getting HRT at all has been very confusing and unrewarding so far. I managed to get a couple letters written by some doctors, but I’m not entirely sure if all the paperwork ...

What will testosterone do to my sex drive?

I ask because most of the testimonies I’ve found about this subject are from adults, not teens like myself. This is important because sometimes they describe their attraction as being “like a second puberty”, which it technically is, but the thing about me is I haven’t even finished my first. If you...

Has seeing fetish material from a young age done me harm?

I’ve had internet access since I was little, as have a lot of people these days. Of course, I was always a big fan of shows like Pokemon and Digimon, and because of this I ended up stumbling upon a certain sect of the furry community who combine aspects of these stories with various fetishes, in par...
