my experiences of being in a car accident

lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/2449385

lemmy.blahaj.zonemy experiences of being in a car accident - Blåhaj LemmyYesterday I was in a car accident. I’m really OK (some mild brain injury and bruising), the car is not. I had gone running, so I was wearing a t-shirt and leggings with an athletic skirt to cover my bits, I had no makeup on and was perhaps the least feminine I could be. What surprised me was that the EMTs, firemen, and police all saw and interacted with me me as a woman, and not in that “being polite” way that some trans affirming liberals can be, I just think they had no idea I was trans. My gender survived even having to talk to the emergency responders, answering questions, etc. In some sense none of this is new, people on the phone have correctly gendered me as a woman for maybe six months, but it doesn’t stop my brain worms from making me hear a boy. Likewise with countless interactions in public now where people seem to see a woman. Still, all I see in a mirror is a boy most days. In the ER, the nurses and office workers all assumed I was a woman. I was asked twice by the doctors if there was any possibility I could be currently pregnant. All I’m saying is that yesterday was one of the most gender affirming days in my life. I don’t think if they suspected I was trans they would treat me the way I was treated, I just managed to seamlessly navigate the world in ways that I never thought was going to be possible. It’s not real to me, but I’m definitely just going to keep replaying those interactions over and over again. Maybe it will sink in. Less than a year ago, the equivalent experience would have been very difficult, I was very much not passing and I looked like a man dressed as a woman to most people. I assumed it was just going to be like that the rest of my life, and that’s still what it’s like in my head. I felt pretty emotional about it yesterday, about the culmination of so many hours put into voice training, struggling without a sense of hope about the future and arriving here anyway. I feel like I owe the trans community my whole life.

[Rant] Why do people in the trans community never talk about voice surgery or acknowledge that it's necessary for some folks

discuss.online/post/18225914

discuss.online[Rant] Why do people in the trans community never talk about voice surgery or acknowledge that it's necessary for some folks - Discuss Online(NSFW because I’m ranting due to voice dysphoria) Like seriously, I was encouraged to just voice train for years to try and sound like a woman but even after 3 years of voice training nothing I tried helps and I still sound like a man who’s imitating a woman’s voice. My voice clearly doesn’t and will never pass without surgical intervention but the worst part is that people have told me I don’t need voice surgery and that my “fem” voice passes, bull fucking shit, I sent voice samples to a voice training sub on a throwaway account without telling them my gender just if it sounds masc or fem and most of them said my “fem” voice sounds masculine possibly slightly androgynous. Also why would someone tell me my voice passes when it clearly doesn’t? That’s not being nice that’s lying to me, and maybe you have the luxury of being openly and visibly trans but I don’t, it can be a big problem if I speak up in the woman’s room and the other person there is a TERF who hears me and thinks I’m a man in the ladies room. I already know that I’m going to get voice training advice on this post and with all do respect, I don’t want to hear it. If you read it online or heard it from a specialist I’ve probably tried it. The fact is voice training just doesn’t work for everyone, some people’s voices are just too damaged from hormone changes and mine is one of them 😔. I’ll never sound like the girl I appear to be without an expensive surgery, and seemingly one that no one in this goddamn community ever wants to discuss or promote. I wouldn’t even know about it existing if it wasn’t for the fact that I googled it randomly out of curiosity to find out if it even exists. Sorry for this rand, voice dysphoria is really bad today. I thought talking about it would make me feel better but it didn’t really, just made me want voice surgery that much more 😭

[Vent] Well it's official I'm starting DIY HRT

lemm.ee/post/60217986

lemm.ee[Vent] Well it's official I'm starting DIY HRT - lemm.eeEarlier this week I went to see my therapist like I usually do and today I told her that I’d like to start HRT sooner rather than later, I know that people sometimes wait months if not years before starting but I’m not okay with waiting that long. Unfortunately she said that she wasn’t sure it would be a good idea and that I should wait longer to be sure. I told her I wasn’t waiting and that if she didn’t write the note for me I’m going the DIY route, and she told me that that would be a very bad idea since she believes I would regret it due to my unwillingness to “fully girlmode” (which just means she thinks me wearing makeup and having long hair alone isn’t enough) and the fact that I enjoy many manly things like bodybuilding. I for some reason mentioned that I could stop after I got the permanent changes I wanted and she responded that if I’m already considering detransitioning it’s not a good idea. What the fuck? How the fuck is stopping HRT later detransitioning? That made me so pissed off that I told her to fuck off and I just left early. I took the advice of someone and decided to go to planned parenthood and just like that I have officially begun my journey. Kinda wish I’d done this sooner, I could’ve been 3 months along by now if I hadn’t tried to go through my therapist like a dumbass. Shame though, I did like her, she seemed nice for a long time but I don’t think I can continue to see her anymore if she thinks after all I’ve told her that I’m in any way at risk of “de-transitioning”. Moral of the story kids, do DIY. It’s better to ask for forgiveness than wait for permission. Also be really careful how you choose your therapists, they might seem to understand you but they can screw you over in the last second.
