Genetics of baldness?
fuckyeahftms:
Is there any consistent anecdata about genetic baldness in trans guys? I’ve read that the “baldness gene” is X-linked, meaning that in XY guys, the mother’s immediate male relatives are where you’d look for predicting baldness. But I’ve also read that the gene is recessive… so for XX guys, will a “not bald gene” on the father’s X override a “bald gene” on the mother’s? Anybody...

I want to encourage other transguys to step up and be gentlemen and give some words of support to some transwomen. I think we all know how a compliment can do wonders for your self esteem when you’re down and I think we should make sure that we spread that around. So I am challenging you to find a tumblr for transwomen and leave a positive comment to brighten their day.

Rites of Passage for Transmen
Transitioning, whether socially or physically, can be a major life changing event. As human beings we are drawn to celebrate such life changes, especially those that involve crossing a social threshold and other transitions (marriage, funerals, baby showers, etc all celebrate these kinds of life changes). Boys in many cultures undergo some sort of ritual or rite of passage in order to mark the...

fatcorgis asked: So I noticed you reblog a lot of long text posts and it does that ... thing, I just wanted to let you know that when you reblog something like that up top it says reblog post as, and you can click as text instead of as a quote so the whole post is there.

Tips for Getting Rid of Back Acne
Starting testosterone causes a spike of hormones to your body-and new hormones=new acne. Even if you were never prone to acne before, you may notice an increase of acne after a few weeks on testosterone. Even if you aren’t on hormones, things like binding and increased exercise provide more opportunities for clogged pores. The acne I developed on my face after starting T was manageable, but...

Binder giveaway.
fuckyeahftms:
I’ve got a small model 690 from T-Kingdom that I wore for a little over a summer. I don’t wear it anymore, so I figure I might as well give it to a guy who needs one. Spread the word and if you need one shoot me a message saying why!
I’ve got a list going and I’ll probably keep this open for another week or two, so don’t be shy, speak up!
