Anonymous asked: Then I suppose I would have to be le awesome anon, because if I'm not creepy then I must be awesome. :P I have another question for you (the answer may be somewhere on your blog but I shall ask anyway)... Why did you decide to take low-dose T instead of, er, not-low-dose?

Anonymous asked: I suppose le creepy anon is still around... lol. The moob thing makes sense, I'd still bind also. In regards to your transition, can I ask why you use the cream rather than the injections? I'm going to be starting on low-dose soon and other people's reasons interest me. Also, you're welcome. :)
Anonymous asked: I was just perusing through your blog and wanted to say that you are incredibly handsome- I love your face lol. xD I have no idea how you feel about your chest and I apologize if offends you, but it's amazing how much it looks like you have pecs and wouldn't need to bind at all. Anyway. Now that I've been a creepy anon, I'll let you be. Toodles!

Double Agent: A Cursory Product Review
I had seen some images and reviews of the Double Agent floating around Tumblr, and decided that it was time for me to meet with it in person. The Double Agent stood toward the back of Babeland, among all of the other silicone realistic-looking cocks. I held it in my hands and began bending and squeezing it to assess its flexibility and build. Nearby, I saw the Mustang, a cock that I own, and...

Conversations with the custodian at my job
So, I mentioned on here a few weeks ago that one of the custodians at my job sometimes brings up transgender topics with me. Today, we had another brief conversation.
Custodian: So, the man who got pregnant is going to be on [insert daytime talk show name here] next week.
Me: Oh yeah, Thomas Beatie.
Custodian: Yeah, so apparently he’s going back to being a man again.
Me: Uh, he’s...

I am on 2.5 ml of testosterone every 2 weeks. is...
Based on the information you gave me, 2.5 mL of testosterone every two weeks actually sounds like a pretty high dose of testosterone. When I was on T injections, I was taking 50mg of T every two weeks, which meant I filled the syringe to either the 0.5mL line or 0.25 mL line, depending on the concentration of my testosterone (100mg/mL or 200mg/mL).

New Binder Exchange Program: "In A Bind" →
In a Bind is a brand new binder exchange program run by TransActive Education & Advocacy. We collect donations of used chest binders from trans guys who no longer need them either because they had top surgery or changed size. Then we send them out to young trans guys or genderqueers (under the age of 21) who are unable to get new ones on their own.
Please reblog!

Quotes from Yahoo News Regarding Thomas Beatie's...
“Beatie also revealed that he’s had the final female-to-male gender reassignment surgery.”
Wait - there’s a final female-to-male gender reassignment surgery? I wasn’t aware of this. Guys, apparently your transition is not complete until you get one of these!

I’ve never gotten my cock stuck in my zipper before, but I certainly just got one of my happy trail hairs ripped out by my zipper.

Cancer?
fuckyeahftms:
Hi Guys,
I’ve been on a really low dose of T for the past 9 months (.25 mg every two weeks) and when my doctor asked me if i wanted to up my dose I said no (I want to wait tell after top surgery…) She told me if I stayed on a low dose of T the possibility of developing cancer goes up……is that true?
I haven’t heard of this risk, but I am definitely interested in reading...

I think one of the custodians at my job suspects that I’m trans*. Yesterday was the second time that while talking to me, he brought up watching a daytime television show that addressed the topic of gender identity and transgender people. He seemed sympathetic toward the struggles and discrimination that trans* people face. I feel somewhat awkward when he strikes up conversations of that...

pansy-boy:
Inspired by the “RodeoH” harness, I wanted to make my own harness in the style of a pair of underwear. I figured it was just an o-ring sewn into a pair of pants, surely it was simple! I’ve been using this for playing and packing for the past month or so and it’s been pretty awesome.
So here’s a step-by-step guide.

I feel like non op and non t trans men sometimes get ignored. Everything seems to be about T and op. but there is so much more to being trans than that and there is no right way to be trans. So please go to this site and read some stuff about different trans identities and trans resource in general:

Three months on testosterone cream
As MC pointed out the zits on my back, I suddenly realized that today is the third of the month, which means that I have been on testosterone cream for three months.
Just this past week, there’s been a noticeable increase in my body acne (chest, back - even some on my shoulders), as well as an increase in the hair that sprouts on my chest. Today, my voice cracked at least four times while I...
