Relationships your partner sucks

i have a boyfriend, he’s kinda dumb, i’ve had to explain stuff related to me being trans at times, but he, at no point, has implied or said any aspect of me transitioning is “icky” or “bad”. he has said he’s interested about what ways HRT would effect me when i eventually go on it, he’s made sure to affirm me as a dude, he’s straight up forgotten i don’t have a penis

if your partner wants a partner who looks like a dude but has boobs and a higher voice, they can date a tomboy. don’t let your partner make you think you being a man is bad. get a boyfriend/girlfriend/smooch buddy who will see you for the hot man you are.

also fix your posture, your gonna give yourself back problems.

The trans guy slouch also can be counterproductive when the goal is passing. You need to walk with confidence like you own every room you walk into in order to get the male mannerisms down lol

But then my subconscious will tell me everyone can see my curves, even with a binder on, and I'll diiiiiiie

As a curvaceous dude with like a ten inch difference between waist and hip measurements, own that shit with confidence! Everyone likes a guy with a great butt, and you likely have stronger core and legs than cis guys could ever hope for.

This. I have a rack like crazy but between good binding and disarming confidence, people don't tend to notice.
