as a biotrans amab transmasc, you must validate my transmasculine experience or else you're a disgusting biotransphobic bigot. ❤️

Some really sad statistics that show we have so much farther to go:

62% of transmasculine people report feeling regularly unsafe in public due to gender identity.

Over 50% of transmasculine who have used a men’s public bathroom (not a single stall) report feeling unsafe.

Only 20% of transmasculine folks say that they are completely supported by their families.

40% of transmasculine people share that being transgender has definitively caused a rift between family members.

57% of transmasculine people report that being transgender has had a negative impact on their mental health, and only 16% of those report that it was not caused by external sources.

Things I noticed about my form: a thread

This is the form i’m referring to: https://forms.gle/ZFLd2hHLJLXGCHsB7

in the “any final comments” section, some of you are saying positive things like “i love and am proud of being trans!” and good stuff like that

but for every one of those, there’s another person saying “i wish i was cis”

i see all of you who are tired of bigotry and dysphoria. i see you. 🫂🫂

Sorry if this is ramble-y!!

I’m a “closeted” gay transmasc (“closeted” because I’ve said my pronouns are he/him multiple times and I’ve changed my name but I’m pretty feminine + never explicitly said i’m transmasc to the people around me) and the only person who saw me as a boy is this girl; And she recently confessed to me even though she knows I’m gay :/

She started it with asking me for help with ‘asking out a boy she likes’. It was pretty obvious she was talking about me, but i wanted to avoid confrontation/hope she’d get the hint and give up on it; And while I was doing that I asked some questions, she said the boy ‘might like her back’ even though I most definitely would not because I’m GAY; But in the end after dragging it out I just rejected her.

She said she was okay with it, but also said she’d always love me no matter what???? which kinda pissed me off so I just left it there.

It’s really frustrating that she just dismissed my identity like that, at this point i don’t know if she even thinks of me as a boy at all. I wish people would just accept me as I am, but I guess that’s hard to ask since I haven’t tried to pass.

i’m sorry about that! that seems awful and the “i’ll love you no matter what” is uncomfortable at best and incredibly disrespectful at worse.

YOUR Transmasc Experience

An extensive anonymous form about your transmasc experiences. I can share any multiple choice answers as percentages, but open ended responses are up to you if they want to be shared. It requires sign-in because I will be limiting it to one response but I do not have access to your emails.

Hate to be that guy, but reblogging for sample size definitely helps.

Quick question im planning on making a homemade binder out of an old swimsuit(i planned to under a week ago but i chickened out) and wanted to know how safe that is?

Id take it off periodically to make sure i dont hurt myself, but i was curious

i’ve never done that before but i don’t see an issue with it as long as you follow the rules of binding

Do you know anything about taking testosterone? I might consider it in the future but I’m scared it will change my personality (I’m trans masc adult)

the testosterone itself won’t change your personality at all. if it is right for you and you are much more content which the changes then you will probably have a boost in confidence and such which can change your personality

guys i’m reading all the tags and some of these sound so genuinely awesome but i have two questions

where are you buying these

send pictures PLEASE (if you’re comfortable of course!) (not with your face in it or anything 😭)

i wish every transmasc a funky button up for the summer

[our-transmasculine-experience]

happy pride month

I keep having an issue because one of the biggest trans communities in the game I play is majority transfem--and don't get me wrong, I love our trans sisters--however I keep running into an issue that transmasc representation in the discord server for it keeps getting removed. We don't have voice training classes like the transfems do, transmascs and nonbinary individuals are the only ones with specific channels for them, barely any events really /involve/ transmascs at their core, and a lot of people misgender me mistaking me for a trans woman.

I hate to put this all on you especially because your bio states you are a minor but I think its a good point to bring out how overshadowed transmascs tend to be. And yes, in some cases that means we get mistreated significantly less, but i'd rather at the very least get the same acknowledgement. I feel like im not there in a lot of these cases.

Im not old, I'm still considered a 'trans youth', and honestly this makes me lose a lot of hope.

I just realized yesterday that I'm probably nonbinary instead of a trans man. For a while I always felt this desire to be called butch and be in lesbian/butch spaces, but I felt ashamed because I was a "man" wanting to be in a "women's" space. I think for a while I was avoiding the idea of being nonbinary because 1. Fear that I'd be seen as woman lite and 2. The fact that when I first came out they/them pronouns were forced onto me even though I primarily desire he/him

I still technically consider myself transmasc because my identity is more masculine leaning which is why I'm posting here to ask if anyone else has any advice for what I can do about this realization moving forward because I've been out as a regular trans man for YEARS so switching over again is kinda nerve-wracking

congrats on the realization! and i wish you the best of luck in being able to come out again and change your presentation, which i understand can be scary
