He’s hot, he’s cute, and above the waist, you would never guess what he’s got down below. We love to kiss and cuddle, and from my end, his blowjobs are great.

FAQ: Gay Men and Transmen

Update 28/12/11: I’m turning off comments on this post because it is in serious need of an update and clarification. Life has changed quite a bit in the last two years and the growing awareness of trans men has impacted that. When I finish the updated version of this I’ll add the link, until then I just want to make sure people know that this is an old post. Note: The title is because I can’t think of a better way of phrasing it that isn’t either ridiculously long or involve words that are either controversial (XY man, bioman, genetic male) or virtually unheard of outside of the trans community (cismen, cisgendered men).

Please feel free to message me if you know of a link that should be added to this list. To start off, a few of my own pieces (not because I think they are the best resources out there, but simply because in them I made points that are important to me personally in the most effective manner that I knew how): Not Your Mom’s Trans 101, The T Word, and Word Of The Day: Cis. Erin’s Awesome Trans Glossary is awesome for basic terms. Amber wrote a brief but eloquent statement about respect here and also collected a huge number of useful links to basic trans information. Char C weighs in on what misgendering is and why it sucks. Dreki’s Trans 101 For Trans People is moving and everybody should read it. And here’s something of Dreki’s For Parents. Now, onto the hard part– stuff about privilege.

This Cisgender Privilege Checklist is pretty comprehensive. More to be added. Like this: Like Loading... Gay ftm top. Beyond Masculinity. Fter sitting in a cubicle all week, there’s nothing I enjoy more than disco.

Beyond Masculinity

Away from my boring breeding co-workers, a night spent dancing with a group of sweaty, shirtless, gregarious, and generally hot guys is relaxing and reminds me that there’s light at the end of the workweek. Even if most of the people in the club are strangers, there’s a sense of commonality that I have neither experienced nor witnessed at straight clubs; straight guys fight, queer guys vogue.

That’s why having our own separate space is so important. As a toned 20-something with a thick head of hair and a flattering wardrobe, and especially as a top, I get my fair share of attention at the clubs. But even if I happen to be single at the time, and even if the potential suitor appears to fit my ridiculously narrow parameters for potential boyfriends, I’m rarely interested in allowing anything to develop.

But take him home I didn’t.
