pocket expert 🔞@RosethornRanger are there any resources for trans men or are we expected to just rawdog this reality on our own
not combative but it's kinda Sad that diyhrt is only talked about in context of those who undergo feminizing therapy and not masculinizing one (let alone people who want a mix and match for custom results) as if idk, we don't deserve autonomy

Njion the Cofftea Dragon ☕@ko @RosethornRanger I think the reason is that testosterone is waaaay more controlled than estrogen and publicly talking about where you can acquire it might constitute a serious crime depending on where you are.
@njion @RosethornRanger be crimes do gay or something
i went on DIY T in a place where it's a controlled substance and i would do it again if i get my preferred method taken away from me
yes, it's slightly harder than feminizing HRT but don't act like it's impossible

@ko @RosethornRanger I'm not acting like it's impossible I'm acting like it's a crime that you can get in very real trouble for if you post about it openly. So most people don't post about it openly. Be gay for crime but for fucks sake don't *post* about the crime
@njion @RosethornRanger true siblinghood is when we run away from supporting our "brothers" because it's a "crime" to let them have an opportunity to seize their damn body autonomy in your hands
just say you don't give a fuck about masc queers or something. are you gonna stop being queer if they make it illegal too?

@ko @RosethornRanger No one is running away from anything or withdrawing support. Resources regarding where you can get T exist and are being shared around. Privately. Over secure channels. As to not put people in danger unnecessarily. Because that's the smart and safe way. Is it only siblinghood when you unnecessarily endanger yourself just to make others feel a little more seen? Do you not realize that openly sharing this information on social media would immediately draw attention and lead to DIY HRT sources getting raided and shut down? Like, think about this for just a second instead of immediately jumping to the conclusion that this is a case of fellow queers not giving a shit about transmascs. No one is stopping you from posting about where you can buy T but don't be surprised when the source suddenly shuts down a week from now.
E is much less regulated so you can make posts like this without endangering yourself or the suppliers. With T this is not the case in many countries.
@njion @RosethornRanger yes i am thinking, and for a demographic that loves to yell about wanting to straight up kill your oppressors (shocker, murder is also a crime! so is "terrorism"! so all of your activism is also an act of crime by law!) you sure love to act like lawyers when it's time to show up for mascs.
and i'm concluding y'all hate masc queers because i also see how y'all treat us in many spaces, we have to feminize ourselves to be palatable in any way or shape to y'all.
quit fucking lecturing me like you know better about everything, because i've got enough shitty lectures from fake demons who act all mighty and scary unless they are told to care for their masc siblings

@njion @RosethornRanger that being said i'm cutting it here, because to put it simply, i'd have a better time making a fucking brick wall understand the core issue.
i don't want anti-masc lunatics on my turf

it lists sources too (publicly, much unlike your suggestion that it’s all being shared privately). curiously, it seems like none of them target trans men, but instead bodybuilders. the sources page also links a bodybuilding forum, in which you can probably find more sources, all listed publicly.
this is pretty interesting tbh, it seems like T is more illegal to obtain but there’s a much bigger underground economy for it, mostly cis men wanting bigger muscles, than there is for E, which is almost(?) entirely trans women as cis women don’t have communities for DIY menopause treatment.. i’m curious to know how difficult it actually is to obtain T vs E given this
like at very least the risk profile for diyhrt sources is different. T ones aren’t gonna get hatecrimed as they don’t primarily target trans people but they are selling controlled substances so cops might come for that, while E isn’t controlled usually besides being prescription medicine but it’s transgender-specific..
