K (189?–?) Soviet pioneer. From Kazan, Tartarstan, USSR, K was diagnosed as a β€˜transvestite’ in 1937.

She was given permission by the People’s Court to wear female clothing, her identity papers were changed to her female name, and her name was removed from the military recruitment rolls.

She was featured in a 1957 gynaecology textbook.

Thinking about how Dr K said people are more attracted to each other if they experience emotions together and analyzing my whole life through the lens of empathy. How I rarely am affected the same way by common situations and don’t have common feelings rub off on me. How I don’t know how to show other people how I’m feeling in a recognizable way if I am under the impression there is a common feeling. Basically explaining why being terminally online is easy and socializing in real life is not.

I just had someone I normally respect tell me "I've only seen white people take your position" when I said that I wouldn't cast my vote for genocidal Democrats, were I an American. While they were also claiming that voting for Harris is critical to protecting the American trans community.

I can't even fathom a response to this.

Is gender euphoria the right term for me when I'm happy that I feel agender? Idk but I feel very happy when I look at the agender flag and think "that me lol"

Going places with family is always so confusing, fam always like that cashier/waitress was checking you out or flirting with you were you not interested? creature is all I can say but even that isn't fair since some of my most spreadsheet/train loving creature friends got game. I've no clue how to flirt and when confided to friends of my crushes I'm just too subtle.

Is there a difference between gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia?

Is gender dysphoria like a subset of dysmorphia?

If a cis woman worries that she looks too masculine or a cis man frets about balding, do these count as gender dysphoria or dysmorphia?

What is the appropriate amount of worrying about one's appearance before it gets pathologized? Lol

Like a lot of mental health, you're not gonna find a clear delineation one side of which we say "this person has dysmorphia" and the other we say "this person doesn't."

Dysmorphia is obsessive and people with it ruminate on their self-percieved flaws. It can also have a delusional aspect, like with people with disordered eating (like anorexia) thinking they look too overweight while their BMI slips to under 15, then 12, then... not compatable with life. There's also people who think their muscles aren't big enough, typically men, and you can see the results of that between injections and using gear. Some people go as far as to have limbs amputated to align their self perception with outward body. I had a patient who bit his own finger off (intense, he should probably have a used a knife, whatever) because he felt he could not worship God properly with it - these needs are intense and felt very sincerely by the people with dysmorphia.

Gender dysphoria is much more specific to transgender people in the literature and isn't pathologized the same way anymkre (well, except that it's possible to cure by just doing HRT or surgery or merely socially transitioning etc). Sometimes gender studies theorists point out that plenty of cis people get gender affirming medical attention to attend to some kind of need, and yeah why not call it cis gender dysphoria. It fits but we like to keep our transes and cises more separated for billing code reasons lol

The "appropriate" amount is typically only as much as it doesn't affect your day to day life, your activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living. People with body dysmorphia are capable of doing quite a bit of harm to themselves to ease their anxiety and discomfort around their self perception, it's not just moaning about going bald or flying to Turkey for a hair transplant (remember the guy who bit his finger off).

What is Good Health and a subset being what is Good Mental Health are social constructs and are open questions despite medicines empirical trappings. Good Health is generally that you're able to accomplish the things you want to accomplish, plenty of room there for people with disability but also opens up questions of receiving adequate resources (poverty or the brit diagnosis of JSL, just shit life)

I hate bra shopping. I have been wearing the same bra for nearly 5 years. It is now too small because I switched to CPA (also it's old lol) and I am sore as hell and where I used to be ok wearing it all day now I need to get the silly thing off at 2pm. How do I even start shopping online? Last time I measured it was kind of all over the place since I didn't really have a round shape. I remember it being a fucking ordeal last time in a department store trying to find something that fit me. Since I just switched to CPA a month ago, is it better to wait until the pain settles before upgrading since I'm not sure how much development I have left in me?

Basically, how y'all measuring?

Went to a show last night that a bunch of people I know were working/performing in. Tons of compliments on the dress and there was a costume contest at the intermission. I fumbled the explanation of my costume but got to do a little runway walk and twirl, pull my skirt up, and flash my ass. Got a booty-specific compliment after that. Overall, highly recommend putting on your best shit and serving at the local weird performance space.

Update on talking to agency muckymucks about my transphobic coworker: he said the Facebook posts were accidental, and that he just has the technology aptitude of a boomer, and the real issue was him friending a coworker and getting caught.

Of course, he's also very explicitly ignoring all the trans women he works with here, so now I'm gathering accounts to bring that up to management.

caught up on the 2 latest miniminuteman videos. he put out a cool one on the social history of vampires in Europe. and oh my GOD I want to kiss that man so badly. why do I only ever form this sort of parasocial attraction to masc presenting youtubers? this is like the third time, it's always a dude

[–] DeathToBritain@hexbear.net 12 points 3 weeks ago

'ahem well you see, DTB, this is because you wish to express your attraction to men but have been consistently hurt by men emotionally every time, and thus this gives you a sense of distance from the object of attraction and one that you could therefore not persue, protecting yourself'

so trueeee little weird pseudo meme psycologist in my head
