oh damn i honestly forgot i had this blog but i might start posting here again cuz i just started t last week ✌️
Things they don’t tell you about top surgery
- Talk to the surgeon about the size you want your new areolas/nipples (don’t be afraid to ask)
- Numbness. No one talks about this for guys who are about to have surgery. You’re going to be numb all in your chest area, especially where the incisions were. They cut nerves as they pass along your chest, and it can take up to a year to regenerate those nerves. Still, feels super foreign for the first two weeks
- Make your bed into a pillow chair, body pillow, two on each side, and two for your head.
- Sleep alone. I tried to sleep with my girlfriend and it was miserable. You really do need the entire bed for yourself
- Go on Groupon, & get yourself a 10 foot lightning cable iPhone charger, BEST THING EVER, can reach from wherever you are
- Don’t take a week off from work, take two. You will regret the one week, and love the extra time
- When they say “don’t move too much, even after the first week”. LISTEN. I moved way too much and got so sore super quickly.
- Drink lots of water & eat if your taking the pain medication, otherwise your stomach feels super funky.
- Get stool softeners, & don’t be afraid to take those babies. Don’t wait a week to poop. you’ll surely regret it.
- The drains are scary & they may hurt while draining or rewrapping your dressings, but once they come out, the second they do, its no more pain, its crazy.
i hope this helps someone, because i wish i knew all of this when i was having mine a month ago. Looking back its like everyone forgets all the real negatives, its a great experience, & i healed very well & quick compared to most, but the first few days are crazy. They hurt, suck but it gets better.
To the few guys I know having surgery this week!
-the headache you get a couple days after the surgery because the anesthesia is leaving your body hurts 200 times more than the surgery itself. And even that isn’t too bad.
-after a week or, you ITCH. It’s awful. Try not to touch your stitches too much. An ice pack will help.
Here is a guide from a hospital’s website on how to take care of your stitches
It’s hard being trans. It’s even harder when you can’t find a doctor. A new site hopes to fix that.
There’s a lot of talk about physical violence and employment discrimination against trans people, but there’s one aspect you don’t hear much about: health care.
According to 2011′s National Transgender Discrimination Survey, nearly 20% of survey respondents reported having been refused care because they’re transgender. More than 25% reported being harassed in a doctor’s office, and 50% had to actually educate their doctors on aspects of trans health care.
“I have been refused emergency room treatment even when delivered to the hospital by ambulance with numerous broken bones and wounds,” says one survey respondent.
But a group of four trans people have teamed up to provide a simple service: connect other folks with trans-friendly medical providers.

@upworthy forgot to put a link to the site they were talking about.
Aware i say this every time, but seriously, mytranshealth is a literal life saver go use it
I get that you're young, but queer isn't a slur and don't reblog my damn posts with "q slur", please. My identity is not a slur. Thinking queer is a slur is ahistoric bullshit.
Lmfao what the fuck are you on?? Q*eer was originally used to refer to trans and sga people BY CISHETS to refer to us as abnormal and wrong. It’s a fucking slur. If you choose to use a slur as your only personal identifier then yes, your identity is a God damn slur. This is so disrespectful to every lgbt person with trauma surrounding that word, and you’re the one who’s being ahistorical. Asshole.
I’m on education that came from somewhere other than tumblr, my dude.
We’ve been calling ourselves queer since before WWII. It was not originally used “by cishets”. It was used by us. To describe us. Interchangeably with gay, which was used by all genders.
Ten years before you were born, Queer Nation was fighting for rights you now enjoy, marching in the streets. Queer Nation was founded by members of ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power), an organization for AIDS advocacy, because we were literally dying in the streets. Which is where die-ins came from, by the way - during the AIDS crisis when hospitals wouldn’t touch us with a ten foot pole, people protested by literally dying in a place inconvenient for the powers that be.
Whoever “taught” you that queer is a slur and always has been lied to you.
We’re still here, we’re still queer, go educate yourself.
If you can’t give me sources on q*eer being used by lgbt people BEFORE they reclaimed it from cishets using it as a slur i really don’t care what you have to say
Wow sorry about your inability to use google. If the internet is too hard, you could try picking up a book at your local library!!!! Like, how about My Queer War by James Lord or Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II by Allan Berube?
From George Chauncey, “Gay New York,” page 10
This is so painful to read, honestly.
Kids, learn your own queer history. Our identity was our word first.
OUR IDENTITY WAS OUR WORD FIRST
multigender and genderfluid folks who id as both wlw and mlm are so valid and so fucking gay
New findings suggest that it would be appropriate to remove the diagnosis of transgender from the current classification as a mental disorder in the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD), according to Psych Central.
The research, led by the National Institute of Psychiatry, interviewed 250 transgender people and found that it is not a mental disorder as once believed. Apparently, distress and impairment are the two essential characteristics of a mental disorder, and they found transgender people can experience some distress but not because they are transgender, but because of social rejection and violence.
In the end it’s proven. I’m fucking crazy and transgender but the first isn’t a consequence of the last. ^^
Fucking suck it you ugly terfs, transmeds, and truscum.
To most of us trans peeps this is a “water is wet” post but ya all wouldn’t listen. Well now ya can’t say shit about us being crazy without knowing ur 100% wrong lol
hey truscum the creator of the trans flag made a specific place for nonbinary people so…….
I never knew the white stripe was for nonbinary people!!
This Artist Is Using ‘Artivism’ To Break Down Queer Stigma And Stereotypes
A Venezuelan artist is making a bold statement about queerness and art’s power to aid in the breaking down of stereotypes related to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) identity. The “ I’m Not A Joke” campaign from Daniel Arzola is a series of images inscribed with compelling truths about human diversity that encourages individuals to live as their authentic selves.
See more of the stereotype breaking posters here.
if you ever need a reminder that the female body is awful and literally ALWAYS TRYING TO KILL YOU apparently there's a thing where you can experience menstrual-like cramps at ovulation (which happens between periods) so beAR THAT IN MIND
Today is International Trans Day of Visibility. If you see a trans person climbing in through your window and stealing pasta from your kitchen, ignore them. This is not new. This is a regular occurrence, but this is the only day of the year when you can actually see them do it.
Happy Valentine’s Day y’all! :) I’m back from hiatus with page 82! You can expect weekly Tuesday updates again.
,,,, anyway, it’s time to start romanticizing body hair on people who aren’t boys
I think the reason that cis people and society in general cling so fiercely to the “born in the wrong body” narrative regarding trans people’s lives is because it attempts to contain the trauma that trans people experience as something placed within the trans person’s own life. It allows them to pretend that this trauma is not inflicted on trans people by society and to pretend that this trauma is not preventable. Moving away from the “born in the wrong body” narrative would mean admitting cis people’s role in the trauma and violence that trans people experience, and society will never want to do that.
This is why it’s so important for parents to support their trans kids.
I don’t know Jasmine…. what a good question…. if only there was another gender neutral word we could use to refer to non binary people…. hmmm 🤔
