Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Personally, I get interroceptive 'freudian slips', where my body map flips and then tries to interpret sensations based around topography, nerve responses, etc. that don't exist. Ghost limb type stuff, where the 'ghost limb' corresponds to an 'actual limb' that has momentarily disappeared out of my body map. That feels 'glitchy' in a way at the time. For me, that's a bit disorienting, but manageable. I can imagine it being worse for others.
I'll have to leave discussion of surgery to others - I still can't even get HRT, based on various annoying bureaucratic issues."We were once so close to heaven, Peter came out and gave us medals declaring us 'The nicest of the damned'.."

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
I've recently had an orchi (am not 100% sure on vaginoplasty yet, but I do have quite a bit of bottom dysphoria), it was, well, the bits that got removed just always felt like they got in the way, I'd be frustrated and feel crappy if I was aware of them, they just, felt wrong is really what to call it. I really hated looking down and seeing a bulge as well.
SpoilerFunction is a bit of a crapshoot, since it varies from person to person, not that I'm personally pleased with it myself but I can still get erections 3+ years on HRT for a reference, and uhm, maintaining your bits, by which I mean, making sure you regularily get erections (since HRT tends to reduce / do away with the regular night ones) helps a lot in mantaining the function you want. HRT causing cancer has actually been debunked as well, you do get an "increased risk" of breast cancner but only in the sense that you'll be at the cis woman level instead of the cis male level.
In my experience how you relate to your bits can also change on HRT and practially most effects from it are reversable so like, trying out HRT and seeing how you feel about it is always an option as well. :) Hope you can figure out what works for you.Last edited by Astrella; 2016-07-26 at 05:29 AM.

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Wow am I tardy to the party. Thought it was weird I had seen no activity on the other thread. Saw the new link had been posted......man I'm an idiot.
Hugs for all, hope every is doing better/good.
At the beginning of the thread there was talk about taping things aside when it comes to tucking. Has anyone ever used Vet Wrap? It's the stuff they sometimes use on your arm when you give blood. Not as sticky to things like skin and hair, but sticks to itself quite well. The stuff for humans its oddly expensive, but at our horse supply store it is just a few bucks, and pretty much the same stuff. Don't know if that helps at all, but was just something that popped into my head as maybe a less ouchy alternative to tape, esp for a sensitive area.My Extended Signature, Check it out!

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
We've had a solid week of utterly glorious weather. Today, we planned to go to the beach, and I was going to put on a swimming costume and go swimming for the very first time since I started transitioning. Guess what day the weather decided to break and start raining?

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
No. Sadly the universe is not that accommodating.
And I had my first attack of dysphoria in a couple of years last night, and now I'm lying on my bed with tears rolling down my face because I'm not going to put on a pretty swimming costume and go to the beach.
And I'd give up, cancel the leave I booked, and just go into work, except I don't want to be fighting back tears all day at work.Quotebox

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
That sucks. Is it bad that I was hoping for pictures? Is there any indoor pools or anything like that?

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Maybe you can go to the pool instead? Or even wear your swimsuit in the bath/shower or just in your room, on a towel, and pretend to be on the beach so that you can see yourself rocking it and feel better? I'm sure you look amazing, you do in all of your pictures :)
It definitely sucks when things seem to conspire against you. And things that would have made you go "meh" and shrug can be devastating when you're already emotionally vulnerable. I'm sending you lots of hugs if you want them, and wishes for more sun so you can go to the beach another time!

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
We went to the beach anyway. And it hadn't been raining there, just cloudy, and it was still warm, and I had a really good time. And then the sun came out later in the afternoon and I sunbathed and now I have a slight case of lobster. And the sand was soft and fine and the water was surprisingly warm and we made a big sand castle and watched as the tide overran it and it was all just really nice.
I'm maybe going to regret the sunbathing tomorrow though.Last edited by Heliomance; 2016-07-27 at 04:45 PM.

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Sounds like an awesome way to turn stuff around!~
Edited to remove the overly sexual thing I posted. Sorry
Was related to a sort of transition and biological sex thing I was wondering about myself, but I realized any way I worded it ended up kinda explicit(pg-13 version, I seem to be very feminine during intimate stuff with my boyfriend, which makes me wonder if I might be unusually[for a person assigned male at birth] feminine biologically).Last edited by Togath; 2016-07-27 at 06:26 PM.

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
That's to bad about the rain Heliomance. I kind of wish we had a bit more rain right now where I live, but most of the year we have lots of rain. So its good to have some sun.
About dysphoria one thing that confuses me is I typically don't feel to awful. I feel icky pretty often. But I don't think I've cried much over it. Although I think Helio you've been on HRT for a while which would help explain the crying. Sorry if that sounds weird. Just that, as always after about 2 years I'm still uncertain.

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Well, I just came out to my mom. That was really awkward.
I explained what being genderfluid, panromantic and asexual meant. She took it in fairly well, and didn't start spouting hate speech or anything. Honestly, it went about as good as I expected. She didn't really understand the whole asexual thing, and tried to give me "The Talk," which was uncomfortable, especially since I'm more than old enough to know such things. After I finished, after a lengthy pause, she asked "so, are you gay?"
thanks mom

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Bleh.
So, something I've noticed is that any time any of my pretty girl stuff is spoiled somehow, it translates in my head into "I don't deserve nice things" and then spirals into a dysphoria attack. It happened a few years ago when I tore the zip of my favourite boots, it happened earlier this week when the swimming costume I was going to wear was a bit too small (I ended up borrowing one from mum for the beach trip) and it's happening now, because I've just lost an earring.
I can't afford a dysphoria attack now, I'm at work. But I can feel the tears pricking at my eyes already.
Guh, I hate dysphoria.Quotebox

Re: LGBTAI+ #58 Infinity 2.0: The Darth Arminius Apology Thread
Well, on the up-side, at least it seems as though she is trying to make an effort. She may not understand, but at least there is still some manner of trying to relate and understand. Even if it didn't quite go so well as she might have hoped.
And I'm glad that she didn't just start freaking out.
I'm sorry Helio . I wish I had better words than just "You do deserve pretty things" and "Here's a bunch of hugs and kittens"....but that's about all I gotMy Extended Signature, Check it out!
