White trans-male , queer, faggy, vegan, anarcho-feminist

I try pretty hard to be anonymous on here, and it's where I get all of my trans stuff out so I don't bore everyone I know in real life about it on a daily basis. If you have an inkling that you might know me in real life I would really appreciate that you don't read this blog, or contact me before hand to check if I'd be ok with it.

My blog is mostly made up of trans related stuff, random late night drunken updates, total over-sharing of my life, the odd bit of food p0rn and the occasional re-blog of something I find interesting.

I also post about my love for my cheeeap-ass surgeon (£2000 wtf!) and pictures of my chest so don't follow me if you don't want to see that. You can read everything I wrote about surgery and see all of my pictures here.

I am super into trans health care and supporting other people medically. I think self-medicating can be a radical act and it's empowering to take control of your own health care. It pisses me off that cisgender people are the gate-keepers to potentially life saving health care for trans people. Inbox me if you you want advice on self-medicating.

I always welcome call-outs.

THE GENDER DYSPHORIA SCALE FOR TRANS* INDIVIDUALS

inclusive to all trans* individuals

The purpose is to show that all trans individuals are different and do not follow the same path of transitioning due to different amounts of gender dysphoria.

This is a quick interpretation (that is my own). Of course there are numbers between all of the dots. The point is to show that all trans people are different.

I have taken a survey that about 1000 trans people have responded to. That is how I came up with this information on the chart.

Anyone is free to use this chart and change it based on their own interpretations.

WHAT MY SCALE IS MODELED AFTER.

HI, my name is Ryan Cassata and I’m 18 year old mediocre musician with no plans to ever take hormones because it will give me “too much privilege” and “erase my queer identity”, so I used that knowledge to make this chart about “trans*” people.

Why is this community so obsessed with quantifying something that isn’t quantifiable? For as much as the tumblr trans* activist community hates shit like the dsmv diagnostic criteria y’all sure are infatuated with proving your dysphoria to others. I also just don’t understand how this is helpful.

and it’s awful and it uses the term “opposite sex” ughhh and it’s made by ryan cassata, what a penis eye.
