  1. Hi I'll draw your OC's your wish is my command :D

    But don't riot if yours doesn't come right away I do in fact have a life outside of the forums and some might be delayed

     

    Well ok! Maybe you can draw my newest OC, Hyalana? She's basically a unicorn who can create and control glass. Good luck! :)

    Here is a reference of my OC: http://cassandrastarxsandos.deviantart.com/art/Hyalana-Reference-556844199

  2. I have shaved my entire body at least once (I do it in segments, it takes awhile), but it's rather difficult. I get cuts all the time. Those cuts make me get a more hollow feeling inside. Every consequence of trying to make me feel right inside my own body ends up depressing me. Being in an environment that does not support people like myself makes everything tons worse. I mean, I have to always wear men's clothing, and act more masculine than I truly am *sigh*.

     

    I know exactly how you feel girl. It's been the exact same situation for me since I discovered that I was trans. It's so hard walking every day to college and seeing all these pretty girls walk by with their beautiful hair, cute clothes, cute figures, and perfectly shaven legs. I once tried to shave my legs completely but ended up with multiple razor bumps on my right thigh. It doesn't help that I have stretch marks along both of my thighs. Ugh!! I constantly experience so much envy for those girls that get to be themselves. It's almost unhealthy but I'm afraid I can't help it anymore. I always cry a little on the inside and sometimes I have to really try not to show it.

     

    It's a bitch and I hope this therapy I'm going through will be worth it. I want to eventually get a referral to see a endocrinologist. We'll see what happens.

    You make it sound like I think it was xD   Technical definitions aside, the phrase "suffering from gender dysphoria" does connote a disease. At least, to me.   That's all I'm saying     As for "transgenderism", I get the idea, I just tend away from the usage. In the public sphere, the adjective seems most effective. Feminism is such an "ism", but saying women's rights sparks less controversy.

     

    Oh come on, does "suffering from depression" also connote a disease? If not, what makes gender dysphoria so different? :P

     

    Also I get what you mean about the whole "transgenderism" vs "transgender" stuff.  :smug:

     

     

     

    I got to talk with the traditional healer that I originally started talking to on this subject yesterday.

     

    Oh cool! Why exactly did you go see a traditional healer to talk about this? Just because? Just curious.

    Sounds like a disease when you put it that way ^^'   "Suffering with gender dysphoria"

     

    It's not a disease. It's not something contagious. Trust me, I'm transgender and I didn't get it from someone else lmao.

     

    According to the description of dysphoria here, it's much like depression or anxiety. Some people suffer from depression and others may suffer from anxiety. It may not be a disease but you can still suffer badly from it. There is a reason why 40% of trans people attempt suicide.

     

     

     

    What's with the "ism"?

     

    Transgenderism is a formal noun to describe the state of being transgender while the word transgender is often used as an adjective. I like the distinction. It makes the terminology less confusing :P

     

     

    Hope this clears up any confusion you may have had.
