#to clarify going on T is an awesome decision and I support you 100% with any decision

[eliemo]

u dont have to answer this ofc and dont bother answering if its wrong (sorry) but i was just wondering if ur trans? and if so have u been on T? im a young ftm and im considering starting testosterone but im asking for advice,, sorry to do this online but i dont have anyone to ask irl,, again u dont have to answer sorry

So to start, yes I am trans. I'm more comfortable identifying as nonbinary or a demiboy than strictly male, but I do have dysphoria, I bind, and I don't identify with my assigned gender at birth.

I have not been on T, and I don't think I plan to. That decision could change, but it doesn't make me any less trans or any less valid in my identity, and the same goes to you.

If you want to start testosterone then that's great! Go for it! If it's what you want I 100% recommend it. But I think my only advice would be to make sure you're doing it for you, your gender presentation, and not to meet society's expectations of a man. You're a man no matter what.

Starting T can be amazing, I've seen it change the lives of so many people for the better. But I've also seen a lot of trans men go their whole lives without it, and they're just as valid as the ones who do.

I'm not an expert at all, I'm mostly just rambling about what I've seen and my own experience since coming out and exploring my gender. You're gonna be a handsome man no matter what you choose to do, whether that's to go on T or not, or get top surgery or not. Nothing's gonna change the fact that you're a man, so don't let people tell you otherwise.
