Reminder:
There's a thing you can sign!
It's for an EU-wide ban on so-called "conversion therapy" of queer people.
Please sign it! Lots of member states haven't met the minimum threshold yet!
The thing needs seven member states to meet the minimum threshold AND at least a million signatures before 17.5.2025

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy? (Download and archive this video.)
A hormone is a chemical messenger made by your body to send signals to some or all body cells. Some hormones are made in other bodies or through chemical processes, like other medications.
HRT is a medical treatment for certain conditions, including menopause for some people, or precocious puberty for others.
(Mostly) Older men and women also use it to affirm their gender experiences.
HRT has certain side effects on your body. You may find these desirable or unpleasant.
Any medical intervention can have therapeutic effects and side effects. Different people experience different outcomes.
Do you want or need to biohack your hormone levels to affect your body?
Please learn more from your GP, family doctor, primary care provider, or another trusted clinician with access to your personal medical records.
Some of the waiting lists can be quite long, or involve more steps than you may expect. So ask early, please!

from the vid: gender affirming care is suicide prevention. It's also preventative care against diseases of despair.

Someone asked for men with titties, so here we go. My take of an OC trans dude, since I rarely see them in art, much less with big bouncy boobies.
Remember: not all trans people are alike, the exact same way that not all members of ANY group are alike. That's why it would be a 'group' and not 'exact clones'. Yes, even identical twins are not completely identical in every way, cool and personally unique though they are in other ways (like us all!)
No one is more important than anyone else. You're allowed to experiment. You're allowed to stay with what you feel comfortable. You need to notice harm to others and yourself. You need to care AND rest. We will build something better after capitalism.
I love you.

I swear Japanese names are underrated as names for trans people. So many western transgender people take western names, but keep in mind names like Luna, Summer, Chloe, Zoe, etc... aren't the only ones you can consider using.
Go ahead and use an Asian name if you want. A lot of those Asian names have great and beautiful meanings behind them. 
Some good Japanese names to consider are: Natsumi, Kagome, Yuna, Kiyomi, Amya, Nayomi, and Sakura to name a few of them

Od Alana: Hej, zostało już prawie postanowione, że operacja będzie wykonana w grudniu tego roku, w Czechach, a jej cena osiągnie ponad 11k zł + inne rzeczy jak hotel, badania, paliwo itd. (cena ostateczna dobije więc co najmniej do 12tys zł). Mam nadzieję, że wszystko uda się zapłacić, wszystkie pieniądze stąd pójdą oczywiście na koszty operacji. Dzięki jeszcze raz każdemu za pomoc!

@kim_harding Thank you for bringing this & the video to my attention! I think this petition is very important for our democracy, and have signed it.
I think we should also try to stop the religion exemption for equality laws.

Kilka słów od mojego trans partnera:
Hej
W końcu się udało i sąd uznał, że oficjalnie jestem mężczyzną.
Jest to kolejny duży krok w przód jeśli chodzi o moją tranzycje.
Zostało już niewiele aby ten proces zakończyć, teraz w moim centrum uwagi jest zrobienie pierwszej operacji, czyli topki.
Dlatego też udostępniam zrzutkę bo brakuje mi już niewiele aby mieć pełną kwotę na operację w Czechach.
Wierzę, że połączenie najważniejszych dla mnie rzeczy w tranzycji (hormony, zmiana literki, mastektomia) spowodują, że będzie po prostu w końcu dobrze.
Mam bardzo silną dysforie dlatego im szybciej się to stanie tym lepiej.
