Yeah, this. People like that are used by anti trans propaganda to attack trans rights. Plus I firmly believe Janey/Will have little to do with being any degree of trans/dysphoric, just a very mentally ill person in general.Makes them look bad is my guess, you know how people generally think trans are crazy. You ask me I think that Janey character only has age dysphoria not gender dysphoria, needs to wipe that eyeliner and embrace the haggard look that comes with being 50 years old, be invisible like the other old people
Every forum is going to have it's trolls. It's no different in the real world. I am sure there a few people who come on here and appreciate you and your threads but it's just not going to be everybody. This forum has evolved into something much different than it used to be and there are some people that don't like change.Yeah, this.

As for my personal problems with Will/Janey, I was new to the forum, shy and socially awkward, caused by years of depression and overall bad mental health due to repressing dysphoria. I feared not being accepted so I hid the fact I'm trans and tried hard to be nice and friendly to everyone, including them. And it ended in them insinuating their personality disorder, fetishes and posting inappropriate stuff in my thread. They did delete that post, but the fact remains. I didn't want to hear about alt personalities, fetish and sexual talk etc from them. They didn't understand my concerns although I gently implied it many times, and as time went less gently. Still they didn't understand. And seem not to even today.
And now they basically come on here after a long absence, and attack me just because they think they know everything best. It's infuriating, and the reason I'm still active here.
Use me being nice to this person in the past as fuel to ridicule me, I don't give a sh*t. I'm just sharing my feelings, since I got tagged here. You want to know my side of the story, well here it is.
I still would have transitioned. I hate all masculine body features and cannot fit into male social roles. Some amount of dysphoria was always there since childhood, got much worse during puberty, and I found out what it is in my late teens. But I decided not to transition and repress, because I was stupid, didn't know I could avoid medical gatekeeping, thought it might go away one day and was basically groomed by Polish conservative society into male social roles. The only thing hair loss did was contribute, together with general masculinization, to my dysphoria getting so bad I literally became suicidal. You can see how bad my mental state was by reading my first posts.My question is, would any of you trans ppl here have turned trans if you had nw1 genetics and never had to deal with baldness for your whole life? is hair loss your sole reason for turning trans?
True, but he really is no one to you. I honestly felt Janey/Will is nothing more than an entertainer. He even admitted it himself. Most of his existence is just shtick as he expressed recently. Most of the posting on here is for entertainment purposes but I know some people take this place more serious than others. I think PM's are the best way to make a sincere and more serious connection.I still would have transitioned. I hate all masculine body features and cannot fit into male social roles.

Now that I'm on HRT everything is finally getting better, I feel like myself for the first time since puberty.
And some insane old man claiming to know anything about me is infuriating.
I know. I've already separated this place from my life, and basically argued with people who treated me badly because I lost all my sentiments to this place, and just wanted to stand up for myself.True, but he really is no one to you.

You have to separate this place with reality. You really don't know a person until you meet them in person and interact with them live. We were never meant to socialize behind a keyboard and monitor. You have to get out in the real world and experience life with people who you chose to be in your life. And get rid of them if they are toxic.
I understand how you feel but to be honest recently this forum is mostly full of people with dysphoria of various types. The most common is BDD. You really triggered something in me when you said you hated all masculine body features. It made me only remember what I hated about myself( mine was opposite of yours where I wanted more masculine features) and wanted to change but I couldn't without some type of risky surgical intervention. I have to say your comment allowed me to empathize with you and I can understand now your thought process which maybe I was not as tuned into before. Dysphoria is really on the rise more than ever due to social media. YouTube is a big offender of taking advantage of young teens and rewiring them into something they never were prewired to be. I blame the parents on that one.I know.

But Will/Janey is different, because beside attacking me, they damage what I care for a lot because I want others to avoid the horror I went through repressing my dysphoria. And that is trans rights.
I mean I caught sight of keepcool as well but I wasnt looking at "her" hairThere's got to be a certain level of gender dysphoria or lack of care for masculinity tbh, I mean would you do it? Probably not, I know I wouldn't, though the other day I was lurking and caught sight of the mane on that keepcool person and got nostalgic of how mine used to be
It's nice you empathise with me, thank you.I understand how you feel but to be honest recently this forum is mostly full of people with dysphoria of various types. The most common is BDD.
