That is, the idea that being trans is in some way caused by socialization and has no physiological component (ie brain differences, hormonal abnormalities, etc) to it at all. I keep seeing other lefty people, both trans and cis, repeat this. I'm not even going to get into all the evidence that points towards a physiological origin because my real point is that I honestly find the idea just really invalidating and kind of offensive. It's as if they're saying my dysphoria isn't real, that transness is equivalent to being a fashion choice and I just need to get over it or find a more accepting community or whatever instead of transition being a medical necessity.

1. Transsexualism only became possible relatively recently. How could people in previous centuries have alleviated their dysphoria without HRT? Social transition is also pointless if you look like a man.
2. The cause of gender dysphoria, as far as I know, is a hormonal imbalance and a longer version of the androgen receptor gene.
Testosterone levels in people decline over the years; look at photos of people from about 100 years ago: some women there would now be clocked as trans. Also, due to a decline in natural selection, mutations like a longer androgen receptor gene may be increasingly common.

Why does every single transfem character in media make me feel so miserable?

I know I should be happy that people like me are getting more representation but im not. Everytime I see a character like brigette from guilty gear im just reminded how ill never be as pretty as her, and how ill never be as confident and happy as her.

Even that one movie I Saw The TV Glow which every trans person was raving about made me feel worse than any other piece of media has ever made me feel before. It felt like the movie itself was mocking me for being too cowardly to transition, and basically telling me that I was gonna suffer and be unhappy forever until I die.

4chan is literally a death cult designed to make people who should be happy into mass shooters instead. Never go there, never follow their adjacent ideologies, none of it. Even this site is a little uncomfortably close to that sphere at times. Get your ass somewhere very, very far away where you can deprogram.

The reality is that 99.9% of 4chan-ass webizens have been programmed to do constant self-defeating actions and repeat self-defeating mantras, all to trick themselves into believing there's no hope, even in situations like your own where you've basically got a whole beautiful life ahead of you ready to go. It's self harm. You're also programmed to naturally want to fight back when someone like me tells you all this, but don't, it's literally just true.

I think a lot of trans people were at one point at a similar stage you are. But really this stage is unsustainable. The contradiction has still not been resolved. Daydreaming is not enough, you have to change yourself and really live in the world.

>>4685
I think autistic people struggle a lot with voice training since we often have issues with body control and such. That doesn't mean its impossible, but it probably will take a decade to learn. You just have to stick to it.

I try, but they are constant.

>Im already 18 so its likely too late for me to transition anyways.
You‘re basically still a baby. You‘re just in an awful mood and you will snap out of it eventually.

You should try anyways, because there is no better alternative, and staying where you are is not it. Additionally, you must find an internal motive for transitioning. I understand that passing is an important concept for trans people, but it is simultaneously what makes you deeply unhappy, while the transitioning process itself takes a lot of time and courage. Find an internal motive that grounds your reason to go on.

Does anybody else not understand why they find guys attractive? I recently came across a video that said "straight men just dont understand what women and gay men find attractive in males" and it made me realize that I couldnt even identify what it is about men that im even attracted too.

I definitley know when i find another guy attractive, but I usually couldnt explain why. My tastes in men arent even very coherent, I like feminine men, but I also like buff hairy dudes, and I also like incels. My attraction to men makes no logical sense

Maybe somethings wrong with me but I dont feel anything looking at that, or any of those otome scenes of the guy looking deep into the girls eyes. Is the feeling just attraction? Do you just mean that your attracted to guys who make you feel attracted to them? because if so, that goes for everyone lol

getting handled

and uhh, getting… compliments?

I think sigmund freud was partially right in regards to this
The traits in men that we find attractive tend to be traits that our fathers have
Just look at how many women and gay men thirst over dad bods

>>4590
My dad was super hairy and fairly husky but I dislike facial/body hair and prefer lean guys.
It's more dumb pseudo-science. Freud was a hack.

Don‘t know about gay guys, but women are into security in a man and that‘s signified in various ways. Height, muscles, unreactiveness, certainty when approaching her or when leading her. This is the essence while it comes in various flavors to choose from.

okay so i don't even know what but i guess i'll ask people here about this. i'm afab but have gender dysphoria that i've only recently became aware of, but transitioning doesn't really seem to be the best option for me. ik the people on this board will try to convince me otherwise but i'm short as hell, very feminine body, etc. i don't understand why people think transition is either the best thing in the world for people with gender dysphoria or the moral equivalent to 9/11, like i really feel whether transition is good for someone comes down to considering 1. will you pass and 2. will you be happy even if you don't pass. and if the answer to both of these is "no" then you probably shouldn't transition. idk!

>>4720
>very feminine body
resulting from what? if it's mostly due to gynoid fat distribution it's fixable, however since you mentioned being short you'll likely have more trouble adhering to a caloric deficit. you'll also possibly need to gain muscle in some spots after fat loss and eat at a surplus

if you don't want to transition then don't
afab enbies are pretty common. if you don't have dysphoria about your body then don't worry about it and just do whatever alleviates the dyshporia.

that said, it's generally easier to pass if you are FtM than MtF, mostly due to how masculinization works and being irreversible through hormones alone.

>don't understand why people think transition is either the best thing in the world for people with gender dysphoria
Because from what I have heard it is the best way to prevent suicide, and most trans people are very suicidal/depressive and HRT improves their mental health even if they don't pass

>like i really feel whether transition is good for someone comes down to considering 1. will you pass and 2. will you be happy even if you don't pass. and if the answer to both of these is "no" then you probably shouldn't transition. idk!
No, HRT really reduces dysphoria, even without social changes. It’s not placebo

At least you don’t need to hurry. You can pass as FTM even if you start HRT in 30yrs

I'm not posting pictures of myself but my (ftm) abdomen currently pretty much looks like picrel and my 0.81 whr makes me extremely dysphoric. I'm not anorexic but I've been underweight nearly my whole life, and testosterone just made it so that I have more muscle than before with an extremely low body fat percentage.
I want to avoid gaining body fat as much as possible because body fat increases your aromatization and I also don't want to get wider hips or lose any muscle definition or vascularity.
I've tried working obliques and it seems like it's done something, but I've only really gained in the lower halves of my obliques. Do I need to target the upper half separately?

But that pixar mom build has more to do with hip to shoulder ratio, rather than waist. Bodybuilders have high hip:waist ratio, but nobody would call them feminine.

>>4701
true, i failed to consider that one ;-;
so you're suggesting OP/other trans men possibly itt to focus on building shoulder muscle?

>>4702
Yeah, low bodyfat and lot of upper body workouts. And dont neglect lower either, you want tight and firm, not loose and flabby.

To further add to my point, in male fashion high waste pants are worn to visually narrow the waist in order to achieve more masculine figure.
Btw, does anyone know where can I buy black pants like picrel? They look great, but I have never seen them is clothing stores.

Asking as a transhumanist, I find it incredibly hard to find reliable resources on how it is in the PRC, and since the Chinese internet is fairly insular and I don't speak Chinese I don't really get the opportunity to talk with queer people from China much. I am aware they very much have their own subcultures and would like to learn about them if anyone has anywhere to point me.

China seems somewhat decent when it comes to transgender rights, but societal attitudes still seem to be pretty transphobic. Atleast according to what ive read on prolewiki, that is.

I remember there was a lot of queer users on XiauHongShu well before the TikTok exodus. Comment sections seemed pretty normal, though now that XHS requires face ID I can't check anymore.

>>4629
Were they tiktok refugees or chinese people?

>>4631
Chinese people, yeah. Hence my specificatian that it was before the TikTok exodus.

WAHHHH I just wanna be a faggy little deerboy but I’m trapped in this dumb big boy body and it’s so annoying. i just want to be a cute little bisexual dear who beautiful women of all genders fawn (heh) over but instead I have this!!!! I thought I was trans for so long but I think I’m just nb and annoyed by my boy body but doing girl stuf and transitioning made the confusion worse. AHHH!!!!!

Im built too boyish for my outside to match my inside AHHH

i too wish i was a twink. or hunkish. i would honestly be anyone else that isn't myself

>>4542
But i just want to be a femboy and possibly also a girl, i dont want to just be relagated to just "non-binary"
>>4493
Is it even worth taking estrogen then if it wont even prevent my twink death? My life is basically over when i hit twink death, besides my body is laready incredibly masculine enough as is. I want to cry, why was i cursed like this

op again and I’ve done some thinking. The thing you’re missing is that non binary isn’t good enough. Being a femboy isn’t right or good enough.

I’ve been promised success in embodying an archetype if only I try, work out, improve my social skills. I can be anything, and that neurosis is buried so deep within me and I don’t know if it’ll ever come out. It’s compounded by contemporary theories of gender that suggest it’s all constructed and I can just choose. I actually agree with that completely, but it doesn’t soothe the ache of being unable to fundamentally, ontologically change my entirety to match an interiority that’s just. Fabricated. It doesn’t exist. It’s all ego. But I can’t square any of it.

I think I just need to meditate and find acceptance or soemthing but it hurts so much

anyone else born in the gheto finds it hard to reconsile their desire to be violent and desire to be feminine?
i'm drunk so bear with me, i was born and raised by parents who got raised in pretty fucked up backgrounds, grandpa had multiple families and dad has been threatened with guns multiple times, they managed to stay off the streets because they're just fucking excellent at all they do.
dad was the best student maybe ever, and still got his score lowered by teachers who hated him but just couldn't deny him at least a near perfect grade.
mom was a bit harder, i can't think of something that didn't happen to her, she has brothers she doesn't even know, grandpa was an asshole when young, she and her brothers lived in a house they were occupying under shaky legal grounds up to this day.

and i've had a few things, they tried to keep me off the street, quite literally i wasn't allowed outside til i was like 7
and since then a lot of shit happened

up to the point where i'm bordering on lumpen and i can't fucking deal with knowing i was meant to be a criminal, i picked up the habits and i was good at surviving but i didn't want to worry my parents.

and now i'm just here still letting them down, couldn't even join the military because i'm a transhumanist

i guess this is motly a trans issue but what have you sacrificed for being yourself?

i feel so at the edge and at the same time right at the center of the hurricane

not so much a desire but a reflex tbh
i was gonna say "desire to be strong" but it's more of a reflex, not so much a desire since what i really wanted was to be able to defend myself.

I have gender dysphoria - i go through HRT. It’s not about your character

>>4599

can't afford that shit here yet

>hard to reconsile their desire to be violent and desire to be feminine?
There is nothing inherently contradictory about femininity and violence.
>>4595
Cis women get spooked into "nonviolence" too despite not being "socialized as men"

You can project strength without acting wantonly violent. Remaining entirely calm and confident while being challenged, like in that yes chad meme, is one of the most female-coded expressions of powers there is. If you are actually prepared to engage in violence or retaliate is ultimately only tangential to both.

what is with the endless "LGBT are the base of fascism" hate/bait threads? Do they actually believe their own shit? Does it matter?

it's always sneaky snarky bullshit like "gorkyposting" and hazcel schizophrenia, or finding random examples of crossdressing nazis or spamming pictures of ernst rohm.

It's just social-imperialist labor aristocracy projecting their bullshit on the lumpen. It's no different than Karl Kautsky blaming antisemitism on the lumpen. Our beautiful tradie boys couldn't possibly be bigoted and our beautiful intellectuals couldn't possibly be bigoted so who's left? It all stems from Marx feuding with Bakunin and shitting on the lumpen.
