    Can’t tell if oop is transman or transwoman or cis guy on hrt. No matter which one they are still bi and should just learn to accept it.

    Is self-identified cis people getting HRT a thing? I’m genuinely curious, I assume it’s all DIY, right? In any case, that was a wild ride

      wonder how some of the greedier telehealth hrt providers (not naming names but it’s all on Google) would react if someone straight up said “I’m cis but want to be more attractive to a certain demographic, gimme the femboy pills”. I’d give 70/30 they’d eventually agree.

      p.s. personally I think hrt should be maximally cheap and sold over the counter.

      Yeah a cis dude might get testosterone if his normal testosterone is low. I assume there’s something similar for women. I don’t think that’s what this guy is talking about though.

        It’s fairly common for women to start taking estrogen post menopause because their estrogen levels drop, and that can cause issues like losing bone density. I believe HRT was originally developed specifically for that reason, and it was only later that they tried using it to treat gender dysphoria.

        But in this case, they specifically call out being a femboy on HRT, which I think pretty clearly says that they’re on estrogen for that female figure. Whether it’s DIY or just informed consent is anyone’s guess, though.

          That’s one possibility I thought off, but there’s another one: He says he’s straight, but doesn’t mention being via, so he could be a trans man taking testosterone (HRT isn’t necessarily estrogens).

      There’s an entire planet worth of difference between “Failing to have a fairly profound realization about yourself” and “being homophobic”. Sometimes people are just clueless. Other times, greentexts are all fake.

      I don’t think they’re homophobic, just in denial.

      Also maybe bisexual and heteroromantic or smth else that’s hard to realize.

        I didn’t know how to phrase it for decades, even though I knew that’s what I was.
