How many mods are there? How many are amab and how many are afab? I'm just curious!! I feel like there's an overwhelming majority of afab related questions being answered and I was wondering if it's due to an unbalanced ratio of afab to amab mods.
there’s 11 mods. I’ll post the bios here, since people can’t get them on mobile. I can’t say who was assigned what at birth (most of us have only known each other about 3 months), but the bios should help answer the questions you have about lived experience. Mod Aaron: I’m Aaron, I’m an 18 y/o gay trans man living in the US. I’m taking an injectable progesterone hormone blocker until testosterone is financially available to me, hopefully by January of 2019.I’m also on an antidepressant for anxiety, and I have Sensory Processing DisorderMod Ferrum: 25, almost 26 nonbinary with a goal of comfortably identifying as a girl; been on oral E and Spiro since July 2014 and Finasteride since 2015. Also on antidepressants. Doctoral student in Metallurgy and corrosion who regularly melts iron.Mod Luna: Mod Luna is a 17 year old Agender cool-bean. They’ve gotten onto estrogen! H*ck yes!

They are particularly interested in answering questions about the intersections of transition and disability, neurodivergence, and religion or spirituality, as well as talking about the construction of cisheteronormative gender roles in (mostly American, as that’s what they know the most about) culture. They like dinosaurs and fantasy novels.Mod Shelley: Mod Shelley is a 25 year old American trans woman who has been on estradiol and spironolactone for ~4 years.

He has been on T for 4 years and is 3.5 years post op for top surgery and is actively going through the process of being approved for a hysterectomy. In addition to being on antidepressants and anxiety medication, he also experiences difficulty absorbing T and has had a lot of complications with getting dosage right. He has used gel, patches, and injectable hormones.
we have an overwhelming majority of testosterone/masculine centered asks being submitted, so that’s why this blog seems to answer them more. To balance that we’re trying to answer estrogen questions as soon as they’re asked(to put it into perspective, of the 80 asks that are still unanswered in our box, at a minimum, 70 of them are testosterone based asks- i didn’t review the 110+ in the queue, but i would guess it’s near that ratio) As when this question was last answered, we strive to answer questions from all submissions and eagerly encourage asks and submissions from nonbinary and trans women/feminine of center people.
