Re: I'm transgender

Heyyo, I'd like to chat on Discord 1on1 at some point (I'm in the FFR server as well), if that's okay. I've been experiencing mild gender dysphoria since mid-2015 + I'm AMAB.

How would you describe the pitch of your voice?

Late response but good on you! Can't even imagine how much bravery it took to come out. I still dunno if I wanna come out as bi-curious myself out of fear.

okay, i would love to chat later

i don't know; i like my voice and i think it sounds like most girls' voices

i never had any formal voice training though; for about 2 years i tried to get my voice to sound more feminine every time i spoke because i detested my voice when it wasn't feminine, and i think it sounds like any other girls' voice

i didn't want to do formal voice training if it wasn't necessary because i want to have everything as natural as possible when i'm transitioning including my voice; i don't want a program to change my voice to the point where it sounds feminine but it doesn't sound familiar to me

Late response but good on you! Can't even imagine how much bravery it took to come out. I still dunno if I wanna come out as bi-curious myself out of fear.

thank you it depends if you think it'll be dangerous where you live or if you think your parents would accept you IMO, but if you think your parents and/or friends would accept you i think it would be fine

people are a lot more accepting where i live in general i think so even when people at college saw me when i first started transitioning no one said anything (although i got some strange looks)

I'm happy that you feel comfortable enough with the community to share this with us Drizz ^_^ I wish you luck and success in continuing on with your transition

thank you

Re: I'm transgender

Re: I'm transgender

I'm glad for you, I am.


But I fucking hate that this has to be a thing. Why are people scared or worried about being WHO THEY ARE. I can't stand the society we live in, having to hide how we feel or who we are because violence could ensue. I hate that coming out gay or trans has to be a thing. I'm a being negative I know. What I'm getting at is call people out on being a stupid shit, instead of letting them talk bullshit.

I agree very heavily on this.

Also if you don't want to answer this, it's perfectly fine, but I'm super curious as someone who is more affected by this than myself: how many genders do you feel there are both personally, and for the sake of legalities?

I hope it's not an offensive question I just want to bounce your thoughts against mine to see where mine falls by comparison.

i don't think it's offensive at all

i don't think there's a limit on the amount of genders there are because so many people identify as different genders

there are plenty of people who don't identify as a girl or boy and people who don't even have a gender

to be fair some of them sound silly IMO but i think for a lot of people they're serious and that's how they feel

you shouldn't need to state your gender for legal reasons IMO

also there aren't even two sexes; there's also intersexual where someone was born with both male and female organs

Re: I'm transgender

I like to think of gender as a slider instead of a binary switch

Ahhhh. Your opinion lines up more with a buddy of mine, than my opinion.

Edit: I guess for the interests of being fair(?) I'd say for legal reasons there should be four (Male, Female, Hermaphrodite, and Transitioning) but I personally think two is fine otherwise, and like music genres diversifying it too heavily results in some pretty ridiculous things. You're literally allowing an unneeded label to be placed upon yourself. But this is just me.
