Love, Hate and Indifference - for FtMs Only

[CaptLex]

I'd like to know what you love, hate or can take or leave about being FtM. I'll start:

I love . . . getting to wear ties and boxers.
I hate . . . my breasts.
I can take or leave those "is that a boy or a girl?" looks

Anyone else?

[Kieron Andrew]

I did two cos i couldnt fit it all in one lol

I love the sound of being called 'he or Kieron'
I hate that my breasts are too big to bind and pass
I also can take or leave the 'is it a boy or girl' looks

I love looking smart in male shirt and trousers
I hate being called 'she' even after ive said 'he' or Kieron
I can take or leave people that just dont get it

[Wren]

I love ..just feeling like a boy.
I hate ..that I can't be a boy when I dance.
I could take or leave ..a lot of things. can't think of one now.

[Evert]

I love . . . my height
I hate . . . my voice.
I can take or leave those people who ask 'Don't you find it insulting when people call you sir?'

[Cai]

I love wearing loose comfy pants and cool guys t-shirts (new Superman shirt today!).
I hate being called "miss" or "honey" while in boy mode
I can take or leave binding. (Really. That was going to be my hate, until I realized I don't actually mind doing it. Maybe I haven't been doing it long enough for the excitement to be gone.)

[mistunderstood]

I love my packy.
I hate my chest.
I can take or leave how I dress.( I wear guy clothing all the time)

[Adam]

I love that i pass as male to people that dont no me
I hate that people change there mind about saying "he" once i speak
I can take or leave ackys i find there not important to me really

[false_dichotomy]

I love the friends I've made that I wouldn't have met otherwise.
I hate having to out myself every time I need to show ID.
I can take or leave lesbians hitting on me. This is one of the things I used to LOATHE, but now I realize it's still vaguely flattering in a certain way, and that they don't have bad intentions...

[bi_weird]

I love this thread.

Wait no false start.

I love ties!
I hate that I only feel attractive when dressed as a woman. Working on that though. Hopeing perhaps a certain girl will help me...*grin*
I can take or leave my chest.

[Question Mark]

I love when people who know me and my birth gender unintentionally refer to to as "he".
I hate societally inflicted gender boxes.
I can take or leave my androgynous body and face. It always makes my appearance feel incomplete, no matter how I'm dressed.

[John]

Hm...

I love 'little John'
I hate my hips and weist. Really. I have the typical 'howerglass' figure. It sucks.
I can take or leave my friends/familie not really understanding transexualism (e.g. 'ah, so you don't want to be a girl any more'. No, I never was a girl)

[privateperks]

I love wearing guy's clothes
I hate having breasts
I can take or leave packing

[Tristan]

I love short boy hair cuts.
I hate my voice and binding.
I can take or leave my mom's reaction to me.

[CaptLex]

Lots of great answers - I'm learning new stuff about you guys!

[happyfish]

I love having a flat chest.
I hate binding. >.<
I can take or leave my voice.

[Abraxas]

I try to remain fairly apathetic about life in general, but since you asked... (and I had to think hard about this. I'm still not sure about my answers!)

I love... My back.
I hate... my small hands and feet.
I can take or leave... my stomach, which fluctuates between nice and flat, and round and slightly pregnant-looking. Ahhh, the joys of water retention.

[sparro]

I Luv Wearing tight tank tops if I bind just right.
I Hate General family reaction to it.
I can take or leave The fact that I can't be fruity and wear pink at the risk of appearing like a girl.... yes, sometimes I want to do that..as a man.

I do enjoy being fruity and pink as a man. Especailly when I feel like playing up the gay thing-- ever just have one of those flamboyant kind of days? [/offtopic]

[Question Mark]

Now that I think about it, I have a better hate.

I hate menstruation. Without it I'd probably be able to forget I'm physically female.

[Felix]

Good thread ....

I love being myself, it works well

I love passing well...That's getting a lot more frequent

I love it that I'm getting away with p****** in school even though I tuck my shirts in

I love it that the kids in school take me for me it don't matter to them

I don't like my breasts but ya know that!!

I don't like it that there are not enough unisex toilets around the place

I don't like it that ya have to jump through hoops with the medical system to get what ya want and that ya labelled as having a mental problem either!!!!

[durden]

Love: Passing 24/7 & finally being comfortable in my own skin.
Hate: That I've yet to save up the cash to have any surgeries.
Take or Leave: My family [which still has yet to fully accept my decision to be myself.]

[ZenFrost]

I love...
my male name,
my androgynous face,
the fact that my breasts are small.

I hate...
my female name,
having hair 1 inch or longer,
periods.

I'm indifferent about...
pronouns (he, she, it, thing... all work for me),
boxers,
binding.

[Xaff]

I LOVE that people think I am a boy.
I LOVE to wear guy clothing.

And I HATE my breasts.

(The 3rd one I dont understand )

Dat derde is iets wat je niets kan schelen of niet erg vindt.

[xsideburnsx]

Damn tough one.

I love my macho tough guy attitude if a bigger dude gets in my face. I love being able to stare him like I could totally kick his face in and make him second guess even bothering me with nonsense.

I hate the occasional "she" comments I generally receive from gay women and from my sister. I hate my sister asking me to talk "normal" when I'm around her.

I can take or leave negative attitudes and still continue to be myself regardless.
