Discord has e2ee in its voice and video calls now based on MLS, so if that is all you use it for then that would be plenty secure.

We appreciate such a detailed reply.

We will respond more fully soon.

We're kind of an odd case, maybe? We aren't sure but we didn't really enjoy sex or masturbation before HRT either, partially due to demisexuality, partially due to expectations and gender roles, partially because we didn't really know what we liked and to some degree we still don't. We also either never had orgasms or considered them pretty bad: "this is it?!"

We are less and less interested in 'content': porn, erotica etc (though whether we ever really were interested or not is debatable). Our fantasies have shifted though whether this is because we're interested in softer things now or what we've always wanted and only now admitted it to ourselves, we aren't sure.

We cried from being unable to do anything about it the other week and how much connection we need before we could even consider doing something so intimate with someone else, so there's probably also some emotional effects from hormones going on.

We also get anxiety and dysphoria from wanting things but not being able to get them met and from having the genitals we have, but they were probably both there to some degree before HRT too, might be stronger now, we don't know.

However, if you just mean the physical effects well, we don't ejaculate any more (at least not when doing things to ourselves, or perhaps from physical touch alone), we get hot sometimes when we 'finish' though 'finishing' is hard to reach most of the time. We didn't really experience random erections much before HRT and definitely don't now, so yeah. We don't really know what an orgasm would be like or if we'll ever get there but we might one day, if not well, either we'll have to shift what we want or just somehow be okay with never having them again or accept they were and always will be shit.

Anything else you'd like to know?

Lol, no, people definitely don't agree on that for all people, and yes it can be a choice. Why does it matter if it is a choice? People should be allowed to choose if they are those that can choose.

Interesting. We thought Pink News didn't report on trans people any more.

Ah, okay, thanks for explaining to us.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Is this supposed to be indicating a problem because like if you like a person why should it matter what gender they are?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

We didn't find anything about Nirtrile and protection. Could you clarify?

Ah, as far as we know we don't have ADHD, 'just' autism. Yeah, that seems like a likely outcome and way of coping with lower dopamine levels and we are glad it works for you.

We don't think toys etc alone would work, because at least one of us, we suspect all of us are demisexual and so having satisfying stuff is more about emotional connection and long slow sessions, it's what we've always wanted, we think and most we've come across are not like that as far as we know. We also have no idea how to do that with ourselves and as we've grown into ourselves and been more honest we've learned that most images, videos and stories out there don't really work for us, most it does is make us want to do things with others, since we don't really know how to with ourselves and maybe based on our sexuality it isn't possible, or at least not easy.

We appreciate that, if we think of anything we'll let you know.

 

Hello, we were wondering if there were any Peritoneal Pull Through Vaginoplasty surgeons in the UK, or if not or they're not good where would y'all recommend going?

Not currently seeing the GIC because of long waiting lists, so don't know if that's a concern. We are on hormones though.

Also, haven't had any other surgeries yet, should we do before consulting them?

Thanks!

We are trying to create posts in our new community [email protected] and for some reason they aren't appearing or if they are we can't see them from this account.

Is this a blahaj problem (possibly due to the upgrades) or are new communities not allowed to have posts in them until they've been vetted or some such or is it some other problem we don't yet understand?

Edit: Figured it out, we had "Show NSFW content" off in our settings even though those posts are not marked NSFW themselves it must inherent the 'NSFW'ness from the community, strange but makes sense.

 

So because getting to see the GIC is seemingly impossible, we are currently being prescribed three things by gender G.P (who have become decreasingly helpful over time):

  • Finasteride (started 2-ish years ago)
  • Estrogen patches (started 2-ish years ago)
  • Progesterone (started a year in)

Current prescription states:

  • Finasteride - 5mg taken in the morning, once daily
  • Estrogen patches - 150mcg released over 24 hours, changed twice weekly.
  • Progesterone suppository - 200mg taken once daily in the evening

We were watching a video debunking sci-show's video about HRT and it said that finasteride is a not an AA and effectively only stops hair loss (which we don't think we had before starting).

We have some problems as our chest seems to have either stopped developing or ran into problems and seems to have developed tubular breasts syndrome (they're an okay size but a bit triangular and don't look quite 'right' to us) but we aren't sure if this is because we did something wrong or not?

So our questions are:

  • Should we stop our current regimen of finasteride?
  • Did we start taking progesterone too early?
  • Will our chest continue to grow and work its way out of this shape/problem?
 

So today we finally got around to reading the instructions for some of our patches (Estradot) and realised they say not to put them in the fridge (or freezer but we wouldn't put patches in the freezer anyway). We took them out but they have been in there for months.

Are they ruined or less effective?

We started doing it because our other patches (Evorel) denatured once a while ago, and wanted to avoid the same fate with these ones since it's been a hot summer and have nowhere really cool to store them since we are on the top floor of a building and thus it gets very hot up here, even in our drawers.

So we are wondering what exactly is the problem with them being in the fridge and are they ineffective now or will they be okay now that they're in the a drawer and hopefully stay cool for the rest of the month?

We have left our other patches (Evorel) in the fridge as they don't say not to.

Hi there, we are interested in specific types of skirts (or dresses), namely those that go up at the front and down at the back (especially if there's a significant difference i.e. shorter at the front and longer at the back so the back going down is obvious) and was wondering if any of y'all knew their name or where to get them.

We would especially love it if they could have multiple layers but a single layer would be okay if that's not possible.

Oh and a request, if possible, since we don't use amazon since they do not treat their workers well we would prefer no links to them, thank you!

Extra bonus points if any of them have pockets, but that's a big ask, we know.
