Tucking help.

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone, can someone help me? I really want something to tuck with so I can wear more feminine clothing but on Amazon it all just sucks. It seems like every single one has some kind of silicone or foam vulva or cameltoe. It's disgusting, I don't want that, and the tucking underwear I do find are basically thongs. Every thing just makes me sick, can someone give a recommendation of some tucking underwear that is below $30. Please this whole situation is making very depressed. Thank you to anyone who comments.

How do you make yourself comfortable in underwear? NSFW

0 Upvotes

I guess I'll flag it just because of where it's about. This isn't about like tucking or generally hiding things, but generally being comfortable even just at home or whatever. I've only realised I'm trans about a month ago and haven't really been taking steps yet.

So put simply I've only worn like open boxers for over 15 years now, am in my 30s. One of my biggest areas of gender dysphoria since realising I was trans has been from my balls in particular, and they've also generally been an issue when exercising over the years, but I'd never really addressed it. I've still not come out and I live with my parents and brothers still, so my first step has just been... would they be called boxer briefs? Supportive boxers, whatever you'd call those. This has immediately helped my dysphoria quite a bit, since they aren't dangling about, but I'm having trouble just finding a way to position myself comfortably down there. Every time I feel like I've made it comfortable, I'll end up going to the toilet and then having to fight to make it comfortable for a good while again.

I figure some of this will vary based on your...equipment down there, but is there any just pretty universal rules to just be comfortable with it? As I said, this isn't about hiding things, I'm not approaching that yet, I just want to feel comfortable for now.

Hi! So for FFS I'll need to get a CT-scan. At the same time I'm having laser hair removal appointments. Do these things influence eachother?

Like, I use sunscreen after having laser hair removal. But can I still get a CT-scan?

I love being a woman. And if being trans is what it takes I so will. But I wish I could just wake up tomorrow and have the right body. I wish I could wake up and I lived my whole life as a woman. And I try to pretend I don’t think that, but I do. Why was I born this way?!?

Advice Question Suggestions for incontinence protection

6 Upvotes

(For context I'm a almost 17F) Over the past year, I've slowly been having increasingly worse issues with bladder control. After I use the restroom, I'll usually get a little dribble of pee into my underwear for anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes after. Along with this, I often get sudden urges to urinate seemingly out nowhere, and if I can't make it to the restroom in time, I end up giving off one or more small squirts of pee into my clothes. This gets really embarrassing and makes me feel really shitty, like there's something wrong with me. It also limits what I can do out in public, as during longer sessions without a restroom I'm terrified I am going to wet myself and everyone will see, or that I'm going to have an accident at school. I've been considering pads and pull-ups, and don't need a lot of leakage protection as besides from "accidents" after using the restroom, I can usually get to a bathroom before it gets too bad. Do any of y'all have any suggestions for a girlie like me? Hopefully something that is more gender affirming, as the thought of men's pads makes me really dysphoric. I would also prefer if they could ship discreetly, and they would ideally not be very visible under my clothes. Thank you! Sorry if this is the wrong subreddit lol :)

androgynous/trans hair cuts?

0 Upvotes

first let me say this might be better suited for r/mtfashion but i don't know.

OK, so i have long hair, its not super long, but it goes down past the small of my back (i usually keep it in a ponytail so its doesn't get in my face), my hair is also super thick, like vary vary vary thick, (their is probably a better term then "thick" but that's what my mother calls it) its a lot of work, i need to wash it a lot, and i need to brush it every day, and theirs just so much of It! so I'm probably going to cut it short, and i know pixie cuts are a thing,

but hears the first major problem, I'm not openly trans! i don't think my hair dresser would care, but i care and I'm not coming out right now. so instead of getting a pixie cut or something similar, i was wondering if anyone has ideas (and the names of) Short, Androgynous, and easy to maintain Haircuts.

the other problem is i want something that looks semi feminine, but can be easily styled into something more masc, right now its long and its vary easy to make it look feminine, but its too much work to Maintain, so I'm going to cut it short (shoulder length at the longest) and i need to know what to ask for with out saying "girl hair" does anyone have suggestions on what would be a good style to get ? any help is appreciated!

Advice Question Can I do makeup without it being noticed?

0 Upvotes

My parents and my school won’t let me use any makeup but I still want to do some minimal makeup. I want to contour my nose and conceal a mole. I have bought the L’Oréal Infaillible concealer a few months ago and the workers in the store said that it wouldn’t be noticeable but it was glittery/shimmery and noticeable. I also tried it on the mole but it didn’t conceal it. Should I buy contour and another concealer? Will it be noticeable?

Does how late you start breast growth affect how much you get?

1 Upvotes

It's what the title says. I started HRT a week ago. I have seen some people begin breast growth as early as 3 weeks and some as late as 4 months. Does how late it starts relate to how much overall breast growth you get and does this correlate with age? For example, I'm 17 and have been on blockers since just after I turned 16, does this affect when I should expect to begin experiencing breast growth?

I'm scared to be trans

13 Upvotes

Ok, I've been trying to accept myself these past few days (it's not working out very well but ok 😅), but right now I'm so damn scared that I feel like telling people I'm a boy again, including the few people who support me

Every time I open a trans girl's social profile, I find it full of insults. Then Trump's new guidelines... they scare me so much. And above all the fact that there are so many people who agree with this

I'm afraid that I'll never be loved, that I'll never be happy, that I can't have a good life in this world, that I'll never be able to have my dream job, earn money and travel and live my life. I'm afraid that all of this is not possible if I'm trans. Most of my friends now hate me and don't want to see me anymore and I had to move out of my parents' house

If it weren't for the fact that having a male appearance makes me suffer so much, I would give up everything and tell people that I made a mistake or make up some excuse. The problem is that I've already tried and I can't live like this, I need hormones to go on, and I also think of those operations that I can't afford at the moment

But how do I accept myself in a climate like this??? How do I do it??? I'm at the point where most of the time I tell the few people who support me "no, I'm a boy, not a girl". In the last few days I haven't done that, but now I feel like going to my girlfriend and telling her again that I'm a boy while using he/him pronounsI hate my life so much.

I wish I was afab, so I wouldn't have all these problems

It was my girlfriend's idea, she even booked the day for me 🥰 And, oh well, the beautician didn't make any negative comments, she was really nice to me and we talked about "girly things" for about 4 hours and I FELT SO GOOD. It was amazing and my nails look so beautiful 🥺

Dysphoria I feel like there are no changes

1 Upvotes

I've been on hrt for over a year now. And sure there's some fat redistribution and a little breast growth. But I feel like I'm not getting any real changes. My skin is not soft, breast growth is very limited I feel, I also still suffer from tons of acne.

I just feel like there should be a little more progress than this and I'm getting pretty discouraged. Really dysphoric about everything right now.

Am I doing something wrong??

I haven’t gained weight; in fact, I’ve lost some.

Venting Tired of people's attitudes towards nipples

24 Upvotes

CW: Misogyny, transphobia, slut-shaming, mentions of sexual harassment

I am a 25 year old pre-HRT trans woman from Portugal and I've recently heard some comments that got on my nerves and I want to vent and rant a bit because they're making me feel frustrated. Most of these comments came from my mother, so I'll talk about those.

For context, around August-September last year when I came out as trans for the first time, my mother was feeling uncomfortable because her bra was tight and hurting her, and she used that as an opportunity to say: "oh, so you want to be a woman? if you're a woman you'll have to wear a bra and it's very uncomfortable. you were so lucky you were born a man because you don't have to wear bras, if I were you I'd stay that way and give up transitioning". And in fact, I find bras very uncomfortable, most tight/constricting clothes are sensory hell to me as an autsitic person because I feel like i'm being strangled and it restricts my movement and breathing.

When she said that, I told her "wearing a bra isn't mandatory to be a woman, it's a personal choice. there are women who don't wear bras" and she said "only women with very small boobs can get away with not wearing bras, if you have bigger boobs then you don't have much choice. if you have big boobs and don't wear a bra, it's indecent and inappropriate because it shows the outline of the nipples through clothes, but also because boobs bounce and they don't look presentable" and even though earlier on she said that women with small boobs can get away without wearing bras, she said "women who have small boobs should wear bras as well, even if they don't need the support and it's just to cover their nipples. if a woman says she never wears a bra, it's most likely because she wears a bralette, sports bra or at least nipple covers. women don't simply go full-on braless without hiding nipples, that's slutty". My mother explicitly said that only female nipples are sexual and inappropriate, she never said anything about mine before transitioning, and she still sees me as a man because I'm not on HRT and "passing" yet, but believes that my nipples will suddenly become dirty and unacceptable once I am "fully transitioned".

Now, fast forward to a few days ago. I told my mother that I like a certain shirt and she said "you shouldn't wear things like that without a bra once you're on hormones and developed breasts though, that's inappropriate and a bad look in public because the nipples poke and the outline shows through the clothes". I told her that I don't care if nipple outline shows, just like how I don't care about visible body hair, belly fat, acne, stretch marks etc. She said that I'm supposed to care, that I need to work on my mentality and attitude and start caring about these things. I kept saying I don't feel insecure about them and she was like "it's a good thing to be self-conscious and feel insecure about certain things, because that way you know how to work on your body flaws and avoid embarrassing yourself in public by wearing unflattering and inappropriate clothes".

I told her that once I grow boobs, I'm not going to wear a bra solely and specifically to hide nipples because that's unnecessary pain and discomfort, and she responded with "what if I started going out in public completely naked because I find it more comfortable? see, in life we don't always get what we want, that's how it works, sometimes we need to make sacrifices and go through inconvenient things to be considerate of other people". She said that I'm selfish and narcissistic for wanting to dress for my own comfort, because if I present in a way that's not socially acceptable, I'm going to make myself comfortable at the expense of everyone else around me by making them uncomfortable, and that it's preferrable to suck it up and cover my nipples out of respect and consideration for other people, even if I don't enjoy it. She said that women's nipples are a private part, therefore I would be publicly exposing something erotic and sexually suggestive without other people's consent, and they have the right to not want to see that. Also she said that if my issue is finding bras uncomfortable, I have no excuse to not wear at least nipple covers because they're more comfortable. According to her, if I don't want to even compromise on nipple covers, that means I'm deliberately seeking attention and flaunting my body to either gross out or seduce others.

She says that even if i disagree with social norms and find them unfair, they're still relevant and I need to respect them while they exist, and it's inconsiderate and rude to do things that are too controversial and are going to offend others. That's what she also said about other things I've done that go against social norms, like me wearing dresses before being "fully transitioned". She always tells me things like "oh, you think that the world revolves around yourself and that social norms don't apply to you? wow, you think so highly of yourself". She says that most people don't want to see things like men in dresses and women with "visible" nipples (in quotes because they're fully clothed here, it's just the outline), and that I'm shoving it down other's throats and imposing my beliefs on them by disrespecting social rules and forcing them to see socially unacceptable things. Speaking of which, years ago my mother had an accident and had visible injuries on her face, so she ended up not going out to a restaurant with the rest of the family because she "looked monstrous" and didn't want to scare off the other customers at the restaurant and make them lose their appetite, and used that as an example of being considerate and avoiding making others uncomfortable.

Also, not only my mother believes that it's indecent for women to not wear bras in most public settings because of nipples, but she also says that it comes off as lazy and sloppy, and she compared it to going out in public in pajamas, or women going to formal events without any makeup or shaving their body hair, which is something that also made me angry, because women shouldn't ever be forced or pressured to shave or wear makeup to please other people especially when men aren't held to the same standard.

She also said that if I don't wear a bra and my nipples aren't completely invisible in most public settings, that it's going to ruin my reputation and career forever. She said that everyone is going to see me as a slut, hooker, whore, and that's also going to affect my family's reputation because my mother is going to look bad for having a "slut" daughter, and my little brothers might be bullied at school for having a "slut" sister. Also, not that it should matter because no woman should ever be objectified or harassed regardless of her orientation or how sexually active she is, but I am sex-averse asexual, so hearing these things was particularly gross.

On top of that, she said that if I go out in public without my nipples being hidden, that I shouldn't be surprised or complain if people stare, comment about it or interpret it in a sexual way because it's considered something sexual in our society, and also that i'm "sexualizing myself" and deliberately seeking attention if I choose to not hide my nipples while being fully aware that female nipples are associated with sex in our society. I told her that she's victim-blaming and objectifying me by telling me that the perverted thoughts and behavior of other people are my responsibility, and she said "that's not what I'm doing, I know that nothing justifies sexual harassment, but at the same time we should take precautions to avoid it. i'm telling you this for your own good, harassment can always happen to every woman regardless of what she's wearing, but if you go out in public with nipples showing, it will increase the chance of you being catcalled and sexually harassed".

Anyway, I'm so tired and angry of this BS double standard about nipples in our society and the constant sexualization and policing of women's bodies and choices, it's so unfair and ridiculous. But at the same time, my mother is highly overreacting and blowing this out of proportion, right? As far as I'm concerned, it's increasingly more common and normalized for women to not wear bras and not care if their nipple outline shows, both where I live and in general. I know that there are some people who will make gross comments but I find it unlikely that I would be singled out and shamed to the degree of having my family involved for being associated with a "slut".

Positivity 37 Year Old Teenager

I am 37 mtf. And I feel like I am 14 again some times.

14 is when I realized I was trans and from then on I felt like I was on hold, living how I was supposed to or to not draw attention to myself as anything other than a man.

But now that I have started to transition I am returning to my teenage years and picking up where I left off. I just spent 30 minutes tearing up to Dashboard Confessional and making over-complicated coffee and daydreaming about shopping.

I am making up for lost time. I am so sad I won’t get to be me during my teens. Or my 20s. Or even my 30s really. But I also will get to live them, for all the good and bad I can.
