I hated the trans community on Reddit like probably you folks also hated them like:

“OMG DIY HRT IS DANGEROUS STAY AWAY!”

“ARE YOU GETTING ADVICE FROM STRANGERS INSTEAD OF YOUR DOCTOR?!”

“ARE YOU GETTING ADVICE FROM WIKIPEDIA? SERIOUSLY?”

“I TRUST WPATH.”

But after lurking here I found out that we folks think the same, and I think I can stop lurking depressing spaces like 4tran and 4chan since you folks are realistic.

4tran is like:

“GET ALL THE SURGERIES DOESN’T MATTER IF THEY’RE EXPERIMENTAL, OR WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE. GET VAGINOPLASTY GO STEALTH!”

Like wtf? Orchiectomy was even depressing for me, not everyone is strong.

I was depressed like “damn isn’t there any common sense community out there?!”

    This community is supportive of DIY HRT. Many here go that route and can give you good information from personal experience.

    I want to point you to this post on the DIY HRT blahaj community. It has a bunch of resources that I often see cited by those who know more about DIY than me.

    There are many places to get trans care and we do not exclude or gatekeep. DIY is fine, going through a doctor is also fine. 4Tran is toxic, we try not to be. Welcome!

      I apologize for being an asshole again.

      I already read so many resources, and I ordered EEn. I’m just waiting for it.

      Thanks <3

    On Matrix some trans people recommended me here, and I thought you folks are same as them and I was kinda rude/offensive.

    I apologize now. They’re probably in this community.

    I wish I joined here since the beginning.
