I don't know if it's "official" but there is a flag that is often specifically labelled as the transsexual flag; it's six or seven alternating pink and blue stripes (separated with thin strips of white) and it sometimes features a male/female symbol in the upper right corner.
Ahh, here; its the second row, third column from the left. (This version has six stripes and no symbol)
While it doesn't seem to be working for this paper (link - leads blank page), Sci-hub.do is a great resource for accessing scientific papers locked behind paywalls.
That one pimple in the middle of my eyebrows which makes me look like this
The fact that I know too much about dieting because I had an eating disorder
Also I feel you on the ankle thing dude :/
It actually IS free, here is the Google Store link: Boost for reddit
I have no idea if there's an iOS version, so I hope you're on android...
Ok, so the story goes like that:
In ICD-11 they removed distress and dysfunction as requirements for being trans, moving to gender incongruence(GI, and I'll use GD for dysphoria) paper
>Additionally, ICD-11 diagnosis stipulates that although Gender Incongruence can be associated with the presence of distress and/or dysfunction in an important area of functioning, neither distress nor dysfunction are necessary requirements for a diagnosis of Gender Incongruence (Reed et al. 2016).
In simple words, GI + distress/dysfunction = GD, and they said that in some cases GI itself is more important as defining factor and in some cases GI does not lead to distress itself, only indirectly as fear of transition, rejection of society, fear of transphobia, which is not distress directly related to GD and rather some social-driven distress, so they decided to move distress part away from definition and focus on GI as defining factor.
I'm typically hesitant to disclose it, and I will delete this comment, but I was diagnosed with BPD at 22. I can relate to you. I've ghosted every non-family member in my life at some point, and been horrible to people in romantic relationships. It's tough to deal with, and I don't disclose this to people in real life, because it is a demonized diagnosis among some people.
If it would interest you, I'd recommend this workbook. It's helped me tremendously.
Best wishes to you, though -- there is hope for improvement, so don't despair. Especially at your young age. BPD is, unlike NPD and ASPD, the rare cluster-B diagnosis that responds to treatment. Your self-awareness will go a long way. :)
There's a ton of apps to set time limits on Android, but yeah it's hard to find one which also takes the current time into account. In my experience the Lock Me Out one works pretty well. Here's the play store link:

Had to do some digging, I believe this is an app called VoiceTools :)

Hope this helps
Oh, and the earring on my right (left? Idk, mirror pics confuse me) is this pair on Amazon DE. Got it for free shipping and it’s a nice set, though I only use one (I’m not sponsored, fyi, I just haven’t had a decent pair that didn’t make me dysphoric in years lol)
I'm glad you've found someone you wish to be with, and that doing so hasn't been difficult for you. I would hope you have enough empathy to realise that that may not be the case for everyone though and enough intellect to know that anecdote isn't evidence...
For almost everyone, finding men to fuck is as easy as falling over. It's finding men to respect and date you that is more challenging and, when the best available evidence indicates 98% of heterosexual men would not date a trans woman, that can't be swept away just because you had some success.
Dude at first I thought I was looking at a picture of me. I'd guess 9 months if I would compare my stasch progress to yours lmao. Pic of me (1 year 7 months-ish on T) if you're curious: https://snipboard.io/g5bRWA.jpg
Fun fact: for those who kept saying about non-binary men/women are most possibly cis (maybe).
I'm losing neurons at this moment help. They made all the 'sources' by themselves, from Padlet to Carrd.co profiles... they don't even known 'educate' means, do they?
Well, Sophistry is certain one way to engage a topic.
”Nothing can be known, therefore everything I say is true!”
In the scientific domain of “sexology”, and it’s properly a domain in which things can be measured, experiments conducted, and results reproduced, the things I write aren’t mere “sophistry”.
When it comes to sexology research, the primary purpose of these kinds of subjective argument you are advancing is to deny or obscure what has been shown to be a consistent and reproducible set of facts.
The things I write aren’t simply to support my standing as a “good trans” and other people as “bad trans”, they are the results of over 100 years of emperical observations backed by research in multiple scientific disciples.
i bought these ones in specific, but really any of them could work. i just went with the cheaper ones and they work just fine
This is an interesting listen on the history of Shakespeare and racism.
They have an academic who specializes in black identity formation and the playwright.
At one point she referred to Othello as a black man written by a white man, played by a white man in Black face... Even though black face as we identify it didn't exist back then.. and Othello was not minstrelry...
So that said, all the female characters were just as much woman face.. and drag is women face.
To echo my previous comment, it all exists in a male dominated world where women's voices do not exist, matter, are not sought out, etc.
It's all male posturing for other men.
Egoism has made sugar-coated transphobia and mangling the definition of a gender, or a gender identity itself adds more to the stigma: thus internalized transphobia.
Trenders affirming that they are one way up of the 'oldies' and stepping up to a 'modernized age of transgenderism' is just plain bloody nonsense; they even came up with self-proclaimed 'knowledgeable comebacks' to debate against people who does not support/identify as a xenogender, when all the 'proof' they gave are just carrd.co profiles written by teenagers. As so you know, they couldn't maintain a good argument.
In addition, they also knit the impression for non-binary people, trans FtM and MtF appear to be a whole lot of 'entitled a-holes', regarding to the case of 'trans/nb can identify themselves as whatever they want' whereas the information of their gender identity and sexuality is already recorded in their DNA or so. Rad-inclus-tucutes further deteriorating the community, even people in the LGBT+ community is worn out and does not want to associate with this had become a cesspool of 'privileged teenagers'.
They're calling us gatekeeping when they label themselves as the governors among all people in the transgender community, neglecting what other transgender people (especially transmeds) have to say depicts 'irrational, childish dictatorship'.
Everyone here is pissed off of what those people who have nothing better to do and the defilement they caused, we all are.
From amazon. It’s really cheap compared to other brands. It’s sticks really well (I’ve tired a few others that weren’t). You can use it for about a week, then throw it away. The whole roll will last quite a while. This was my favorite one that I’ve used so far.
Hey, sorry for the late reply (tagging u/Teacharoo here too). I just got some of these gel inserts off amazon. I got the 1 inch ones and they fit in most of my shoes, but sneakers are most comfortable. They're subtle enough so if your ankle's showing it doesn't look weird. If you go with a higher one, it might be difficult to fit them in as many shoes and they may look more obvious.
NSFW This was like the top result for “denim panties” on Google. And like yeah the product name says Denim Shorts but come on we all know these are just denim panties.
The Lives of Transgender People In this they use the umbrella definition of transgender but they break it down into all it's components, including transsexuals. It gives a good look at the differences between us and the rest.
Here are two books about autism and LGBTQ+ issues. Dr Wen Lawson, who is Aspie and LGBTQ+, contributed to both:
