More FtM posts

I always see MtF trans posts on my dashboard. Don’t get me wrong, that’s great. I just wish there were more posts about FtM trans people.

Thoughts on The Danish Girl

... since it's similar to About Ray? I believe Eddie Redmayne (cis-male) portrays a transwoman who only realised she was a woman after cross-dressing as a game with her wife. It seems to be portrayed positively and respectfully, like About Ray, despite AR's ignorant director. I don't mind them using cis-actors since really good trans actors are hard to find (as in, not easily discovered) and these films are only just starting to become mainstream. Its a good start to me.

Apologies

I submitted a confession and said Bruce instead of Caitlyn. Apologies.

Depressed while trans

50 percent of the trans community deals with depression. 50 FUCKING PERCENT. I AM NOT ALONE, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS. WE WILL BE OKAY.

I'm living with people whom i love, but

they not seeing who I am. For many reasons I gotta stay in the closet for some time. And there is no transman support group where i am. The loneliness is unbearable. anyone struggling with loneliness?

is there?

Is there a transwoman version of this blog

Sometimes my dysphoria makes me want to kill myself so badly

but I'm afraid to talk to anyone about it because I don't want to make my other transgender friends more dysphoric or feel like I need to rely on them, and no one else would understand.

killing me

I'm 20something years old and I can't afford to transition/come out to most people until I finish grad school. This is seriously killing me. Tumblr and YouTube are the only things keeping me sane.

#TheTransFamily kik

Just one of the reasons #TheTransFamily is such an amazing kik group; this group is my family . We welcome all transgender people including trans allies

Transitioning and life insurance

Hi, sorry this is not a confession, but does anyone know anything about life insurance in Singapore? How would transitioning affect life insurance? Really appreciate some help, thanks. 

Job discrimination when trans

I have heard from my transfriends that they experienced discrimination in finding jobs in Singapore. Has anyone experienced that before?

Trans of the World

"My name is Nicholas and I meet many trans people in my travels. I began Trans of the World because i thought it would be awesome to capture the diversity of the trans communities. I began to interview my subjects in addition to photographing them. And alongside their portraits, I'd include quotes and short stories from their lives."

afraid to come out to best friend

How will i ever come out to my best of best friend ? We've known each other for like our whole lives, like almost ''literally'' i'd known him since when i was 4 years old, total 14 years. However i feel like we had this barrier thing between us, i wasn't really able to tell him anything. I even came out easily to my two other best friend of 7 years and 4 years easily, they seems to be more easy to come out to.

How long am i gonna be keep him in the dark? i've already started transition and it will come one day which he will ask questions, how am i suppose to answer them, i don't want things to be awkward between us. It feels like if i ever come out to him, my whole life would change, things would probably never be the same again.

Yes, i am a boy by birth. My best friends have still been treating my like a boy, i don't need them to treat me like a girl, i just want them to treat me as a normal human being, but not as a boy ! It's even weirder when i am talking to him about relationship, and how much i hope i would get a girlfriend soon, and yes i'm a lesb-trans. He would say like i was more handsome when i cut my hair, and i'd be like, no... but i was never able to tell him the reason.

We go a long way back... and he have totally no clue that i am a trans because i was never girly in anyway, probably because i see myself as a tomboyish girl ( trans ) + lesb ,  damm that's even confusing when i start to think about it, well we all know there's no fixed gender/expressions/etc
This could go on forever ~

Any FTMs out there have gone through something like that ? with your best friend.

Will Singapore hospitals hire trans people?

What are the chances that SG hospitals will hire trans people? I am interested in radiation therapy but it seems like only the hospitals will hire a RT.

It's harder for transwomen..

I can't help but be envious of the fact that transmen have things more easier than transwoman in many ways. Especially the part where most transwoman have to serve ns unless we did srs at a age of like 17? How the hell is that gonna be possible. We're gonna end up wasting two years which is like a stop in time, cant study, cant work for money for transition.

Time seems to be much more important for transwomans, most of the changes in our bodies through puberty as a boy cant be reversed, the older we get, the harder it will be to transition.

Also the fact that it is almost impossible for us to be less visible in the society, unless we spend over a hundred thousand on a full body plastic surgery including voice, which is literally impossible at a young age of 18, unless our parents are millionaires and they approve greatly of us.

Im not complaining that transmens have an easier transition life, but reality speaking, for transwomens, and because of society expectation for how a female should be like. Its hard...

Sorry if offeended any transmen in any way i just wanted to voiceout my opinions because i don have anyone to talk to about this.

If you are feeling like a nice person and wanna talk to me about anything, leave a comment [on Facebook] and i'll probably add you up
