| Copying what I posted over there:
Hi! American trans lesbian here.
I've been to Japan several times but not since transition. I'm going again soon and would like to grab a drink or a meal in trans-friendly queer spaces. From what little Googling I've done, it seems like lesbian bars often only allow women to enter, or have women-only nights. That works for me, but will they let me in? (My passport says F, for what it's worth.)
Thanks! (r/GayJapan) | |

This is also incorrect—"transgender" is an adjective, so you need another word here for it to modify. You were talking about transgender what? Transgender terminology. (r/transeducate) | |

| Assuming you have XY chromosomes (not all MAABs do, but most do), your X chromosome is from your mother. It stands to reason that any parts of the female phenotype that have been identified with the X chromosome are the ways in which you'll start to look more like your mother's side of the family.

| I think of dysphoria as both a) a source of stress, and b) a stress multiplier. So if I'm not stressing out about much else, dysphoria is the main source of my baseline stress, and that might not be that bad. But if other aspects of life are stressing me out, it gets really bad.
