I was scared too. I did it because I would need to do it at some point anyway but coming out sooner means starting medical transition sooner in my case, basically I saw coming out now to be best thing to do. If I waited I’d probably regret it. I hope everything will go well for you.
Still in closet. I’ll slowly start coming out to my family next week and see how things are going. I hope to start going to a therapist during summer but that depends on how accepting my parents will be.
If Christianity is man made, why does everything about it go against man’s desires? Does Christianity go against man’s desires? If so, is that evidence for Christianity? I answer this question, discussing the history of Christianity, the cognitive science of religion, Buddhism, Jainism, Islam, and more....
I decided to come out to my mom by sending her a “letter” to make it easier for me but I’m not sure is it good enough. Main things I want her to understand are how I feel, that this didn’t happen overnight and that it’s a big problem for me. This is what I wrote (translated to English):...
I think that that my mom would at least try to understand if I send her something like this. With my dad it’s more complicated. His reaction would probably be negative at first but he may come around it later, that’s why I’m not coming out to him yet.
My translation of that sentence isn’t the best, I didn’t know how to translate it properly. What I said there is about people from my personal life (family members, friend etc).
Problems I had were because of software not being on the latest version, not updates. Things just work on Arch for me. Only thing that ever broke was Xorg because of Nvidia drivers but that’s pretty easy fix.
It’s funny how they say it’s to protect creators while their actions in the past prove they don’t care about creators, they also earn from ads (more than creators as far as I know). At least they can’t do anything about RSS readers since they use XML and can be used in many ways other than watching YouTube videos.
I feel that I should preface this by warning questioning people that looking for signs is generally not a good way to find out if you’re trans. Different people experience being trans in different ways....
I had thoughts of what it would be like if I was a girl and dreams of myself becoming a woman, I thought that it was my curiosity and that everyone did the same thing from time to time. Also, for a very long time I was interested in gender swaping stuff and switching bodies (and wished to experience something like that), I thought it’s just a weird fetish. Now that I think about it it’s kinda odd how long it took me to actually start questioning my gender.
I thinking about trying to start with HRT earlier than I previously planned. My plan was to start transitioning after I become financially independant but when I think about that it would take at least 5 years until I start taking hormones but 6 years looks more realistic. Not sure that I can wait that long. This options isn’t...
I use Arch Linux, and some apps require me to use Windows. I have tried to get Wine working, but it’s just too much of a hassle. If the only goal of my virtualization setup is to run something like Adobe apps (I’m not doing any gaming on it), will Virtualbox or virt-manager be the quick and easy choice for me? I have tried...
I just wanted to deny it because being trans is kinda scary, even after accepting myself there is still some doubt from time to time that I’m just faking it (I know this is normal thing for trans people so I try to ignore it).
If yall want, we can maybe even make a big room or something where we can hang out and chat. IDK, I just need more interaction with cool people who are trans and wholesome. If yall know any good Matrix servers that are trans-focused/just have a ton of trans people in them, please feel free to send them to me. I’m dying for...
Came out to my mom
I sent her a coming out letter while I was in school. Later I saw that she sent me a message but I was too scared to look at it at first....
How's your transition coming along?

Trying to ditch windows
I really want to switch to Linux, up to this point there were two things keeping me on Windows, gaming and work....
What thoughts/memories did you have before coming out, in hindsight, are big signs you were trans?

Linux in hospitals?
I was in the ED the other day and noticed that they use a mix of Windows 7 and Windows 10. My question is two part....
Should I use QEMU/virt-manager or Virtualbox for a Windows virtualized instance?

Just venting a bit....
Do you remember the last thing you told yourself was a reason you "couldn't be trans" before your egg cracked?
That last bit of defense before fully realizing your inner beauty 💜
What is your favorite Nintendo platform?
I want more trans online friends. Gimme a DM, maybe we can add each other on Matrix.
