Dear trans individuals. You’re valid. Fuck em’ if they say otherwise.

P.S. I love you 😘

I used to get up, shower, get dressed, and avoid the mirror as much as possible. I used to take selfies with a sports bra or a binder on while imagining I had pec muscles and a 'flat' chest. I used to envision shirtless beach days with the sun kissing my bare chest and the waves breaking over my bare back. I used to wonder what it felt like to glide through the water in nothing but swim trunks. I imagined shirtless hikes, shirtless days doing yard work, shirtless Sunday afternoons laying around playing videos games. I never thought I'd know what these things truly felt like. Things that guys take for granted everyday. But now I catch myself glancing in the mirror as much as possible. Not because I'm self absorbed but because now I know what my heart's freedom looks like. I know what my happiness feels like. For that, my #wcw this week is my former self. Thank you for being strong so that I could be me. #transgender #ftm #inspiration #lgbt #pansexual #trans #queer #loveislove #pride #equality #lgbtpride #love #bi #nonbinary #noh8 #transexual #lovewins #transformation #transboy #transguy #transman #transpride #samelove #bodypositive #equalrights #postoptopsurgery #postop #drgarramone #transisbeautiful

Yesterday marked two years into this incredible journey. Some feel like they lost the person on the left but that’s untrue. She just stepped aside so that the man on the right could step forward. She struggled so that he could thrive. I continue to pick pieces of myself up and put them together to build this incredible human on the right but it’s been a beautiful ride.

Phallo Consult Set

My phallo Consult is set with Dr. Racheal Bluebond Langner in Ny for Oct 31st. I could have done it sooner but I'm hiking the Appalachian. My insurance covers it 100% with no deductible and a $5 copay. I have Cigna hmo (if that helps anyone). I'm planning to document everything that happens along they way. There are a LOT of misconceptions, misinformation, and myths about bottom surgery. My goal in documenting my journey is to help spread education about the process.

LOOKING FOR FREETOM BUDDY STP

I'm looking to purchase (or trade my freetom uncut 4.5" stp, color chay ree) a Freetom Buddy stp. I'd rather have one with the paint plus but I'd consider one without. Freetom has a 30% off sale going on right now so if I can't find one then I'll just order from them. However, I'm leaving for a 5 month backpacking trip on March 25 so I'd rather purchase from a fellow brother so I can get it soon. I'm a Caucasian male so any color that would match I'll consider. I'll just need to see pics first.

REELMAGIK STP FOR TRADE

I ordered an stp from reelmagik and just received it about a week ago. I've decided I'd rather have a pack n play from them instead but I'm leaving to hike the Appalachian Trail in March and don't have time to wait for a new prosthetic (the current wait time is 23-28 weeks). I'm looking to trade for either the 3", 4.5", or 6" pack-n-play. I prefer to have one without the flex rod (because I'm wanting something flaccid) but it's not a deal breaker.

ANYONE ELSE HAVING ISSUES WITH ECPROSTHETICS?

Has anyone else placed an order with @eroticreations that’s taken months to get to them?? I ordered something back in July and it was only supposed to take a MAX of 8 weeks to get to me (this was a month before they posted about extended wait times of 14-16 weeks). It’s now 4 months later and I still don’t have it. They had put a notice on their website stating that they weren’t taken any orders right now so that they could catch up on previous orders buuuuut their website is back up and running and I still don’t have my order. I’ve been back and forth with them a few times and the last I heard was that they were having some personal issues and got behind on orders. Now they aren't responding at all. I understand that things happen and I've been very polite and patient, however, am I wrong in thinking they should have kept their site temporarily closed until all previous orders were fulfilled? Especially ones that have been waiting months? Am I the only one or is this happening to others?

When I was searching for info on this (specifically for North Carolina) I had a hard time finding stuff. So I made a video explaining the process I went through.
