Single trans men just get the 4th panel fml
traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns
Rules
1.) No bigotry of any kind, and don't be a jerk either
• Bigotry includes but is not limited to: ableism, casteism, homophobia, lookism, queerphobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, and xenophobia. Bigotry towards non-binary people is transphobia. Truscum rhetoric is also bigotry. You getting punished for your hateful opinion, however, is not bigotry.
2.) No Spam
• This includes both advertising and breaking your or my Lemmy instance's rules, such as vote manipulation or brigading.
3.) Posts must have something to do with being trans, or about trans experiences
• Try to stay away from negative political events too. You can joke about it, but bringing attention to something bad happening in the world might take someone out of their comfort zone— this is an escape from the constant news cycle for some.
4.) No Selfies or Character Creations
• Selfies are not memes! This is not a community for selfies. Picrews and other character creations such as Sims and Mii's are considered bandwagoning, and perhaps can be a part of a different community.
5.) SFW-only
• This is an all ages community, so we prefer it if you take the NSFW stuff to one of the more adult oriented communities. Note: nudity is not allowed, we want everybody to be comfortable here.
6.) Submissions must be a meme or they will be removed
7.) Swearing is fine, but slurs are not
• We want everybody to feel safe and comfortable here, so even if you want to reclaim a pejorative word that applies to you— we ask that you don't, as this is a light-hearted community and others stumbling across your post might feel unsafe.
8.) Embedded submissions should only link to trusted image sharing sites, no IP grabbers or link shorteners
9.) Use but don't misuse the report button
• If something breaks these rules, or this Lemmy instance's rules, please report it.
10.) Please do not link to any terf, racist, or any other hate communities or forums
• Bigots like those do not deserve any attention. Any post or comment linking to a hate community or forum will be removed
11.) Don't be a jerk nor a troll
• Be nice, and don't create social chaos. That's it. Pretty simple, huh?
Some notes:
1.) We highly encourage you to use alt text in your posts, so everybody can enjoy this community
2.) It would be really nice if you flaired your posts accordingly in the title
• For example, a meme about the non-binary experience could have a title like this: "[NB] Story of my life!" This will make searching for content much easier.
3.) Don't break the law
• This includes the country you live in as well as the country your instance is hosted in
Sibling forums:
!egg_irl
• Trans memes specifically about being closeted, unaware or in denial
!196
• Ordinary memes, but the community is very trans-accepting— and it only has one rule: when you encounter the page you must post a meme from your camera roll
This is why I've personally dropped it. I can't do HRT, bottom surgery is out, political trouble isn't worth it, and I've already been turned down just for using the pronouns he/him. To add, I am in fact a bottom and straight. That little bit of self love doesn't really feel worth it in my case.
Please don't take offense to this I'm just trying to follow: straight in this context means you're attracted to?
A man is usually considered straight when they are attracted to women
And yet they meant the opposite it turns out, good thing I asked.
Lots of gay and bi guys are into trans men. What is your experience?
My experience is that gay men want penis and bi men want to bottom. I'm strictly a bottom so that's probably not helping my chances.
As a vers guy I prefer a long term partner with a penis, but would hookup with a cute trans guy for sure. The tops I know would date trans guys.
Send your tops this way please
Haha no. Find your own 🥴
I’m in this picture, and not as part of the crowd :/
Have my upvote.
Wait until you say you don't have one or a libido
Snuggling is better than fucking anyway
Agreed, I personally only like platonic cuddles :3
to me they're basically the exact same thing, which i believe there's a term for but i can't remember for the life of me
At some point I think it's just better not to tell people you're trans , like If you have a neovagina and pass there is literally no visible difference.
I have no desire to blend in to cishet society. I spent too long hiding in a closet to just get in to a new one, even if it is more comfortable than the old one
That sounds rather dangerous. There seems to be a not-insignificant number of people who would get irrationally angry at being tricked into having "gay sex" and thus being turned gay, and the only way they know to ungay themselves is through violence.
I dont understand how you guys think its okay to trick someone like that. How can you not respect a partner like that? How would it be irrational to be very upset by that?
I say irrational to describe the degree of anger. Being upset about it? Sure. I don't expect to understand it, but I can accept that it's upsetting to some people.
Non-consensual sex is pretty egregious... I hope you understand that.
Bottom surgery leaves a fair few scars, and neovagina's don't always function in the same way. This might work for trans women that are straight, but I doubt it would work for those that are sapphic. Someone's going to notice if they're eating you out (please enjoy my dumb joke about men not giving head).
I had bottom surgery 7 years ago, and my scars are pretty much invisible these days.
That being said, I still don't think people would mistake it for a cis vagina in the long term
Moooood
Like, dude, I'm still down to penetrate you, as long as you don't mind me using a strap on
I don't mind. I like all kinds of women, cis, trans, tops, bottoms. I just like women.
Are people actually that sex-centered?
More than you would think, my previous partner evidently was. she was pretty great but never understood my bottom dysphoria. and always assumed I had "male" desires.
Not trans but I think the issue is more that there's a lot of chasers. My opinion comes entirely from the many I saw on Grindr so take that with a metric ton of salt.
