I hope its ok for me to make this post. F1NN5TER is coming out as genderfluid. He still prefers He/him pronouns but is ok with any pronouns. Good for him. He is also coming out as bisexual.

    If enough people reply to this post, I'll start HRT as a joke! 😜

    Edit: okay, okay everyone, I didn't expect this to blow up! I didn't really want to do it, but I'm a man of my word 😂

      Idk

      I'm pretty much completely unwilling to forgive him for the way that affected me materially, meaning I legitimately had people comparing me directly to him because of his ambiguity and flippancy with joking about things that I torture myself over, like getting bottom surgery.

      He hasn't done anything positive for me, and I can only say that he possibly helped the community by being visible, but I would be lying to you if I said I really believed that. He can do better, and I hope this is the start of him trying, because as it stands I've only been hurt by the things he's produced.

      Good to see you again, Cromalin. Sorry that it's always me with the depressing takes.

        no need to apologize! i'm also pretty down on him. like i said, i hope this is a sign that he's improving and is going to try and make up for the shitty tropes he played into and exploited, but i'm really not holding my breath

        i hope people don't forget it

        samesies! I hate when people try to rehabilitate these like the cissies aren't actively using them as slurs.

    As a transfem enby on HRT that goes by any and all pronouns, I'm in love with how represented this actually makes me feel. Knowing how big of a streamer F1NN is as he makes this statement really makes me feel much less invisible, and holy shit, especially as of late (CW: Transphobia, More Specifically Enbyphobia), it's been seeming like I needed this, and I definitely see that I did.

    As I once said 'I'm not saying he's trans, or egg, or whatever. All I'm saying is that if I left a lil' blue pill sitting on his nightstand, I'm not confident it would be there in the morning'.

        Not sure if I want to be him or do him

        The answer to that kind of question is usually "both"

            I feel this. Gender introspection usually involves digging up a lot repressed pain. It’s not something that is universally positive for all people at all points in their life. I think if you’re in an otherwise safe position to do the work, it’s almost always positive. But plenty of people have good and enduring reasons for the repression they’ve done. Regardless of what the result of that introspection might be for you, I’m sorry you don’t feel safe enough to really think about it. Shit sucks. I’m still boymoding the vast majority of the time but I do not envy the version of myself that didn’t know.

            I'm not going to lie and tell you there's no risk or pain. what I can tell you is that there are much more fulfilling relationships and genuine happiness on the other side. I connected with myself in ways that transcend words and ultimately healed a world of trauma I was bearing and hiding from the world. so yes, there's sadness, pain, and risk, but exploring it anyway is so worth the cost.

                ahh this one? I posted it a couple of months back.

                you're actually speaking to a specific fear I had. I didn't have any specific desires for boobs or feminization or whatever. so what I did was grab some makeup and did my best to feminize my face. the whole world fell away when I saw my reflection. it was like I unlocked something deep within me. it was genuine ecstasy.

                so if the experiences resonate with you, try experimenting with stuff - your appearance, your pronouns, whatever. hell, you can even try HRT for 2ish weeks - that's frequently one that elicits strong responses in people. if you find something that really works for you, congrats, you're trans. if you don't, you know you're not trans and can sit easy with the knowledge that you're cis. it's all reversible (don't go past 2 weeks on HRT if you're not certain) and either way, you can close the uncertainty.

                cheers! cat-trans

        hello, i dont care about Finn, and I obviously don't know about their situation, but anyone considering hrt please talk to a doctor. Taking testosterone suppressants like Spiro without taking estrogen to supplement can be pretty bad for your physical and mental health.

          Doctors don't know shit. I know more about HRT than any doctor I've ever met.

          Do your own research, figure out the medicine that works best for you, and take it as safely as you can.

    Not that surprising at this point. Some crossdressers treat HRT like a steroid to achieve even greater femininity. At that point you’re bound to be some form of gender non-conforming.

      After years of this, I figured he must be via because how can you go on this long and not know?
