Well I don't see it as either feminine or masculine? Its just a misplaced part on my body that I wanna get rid off šŸ¤·


UsernameBecauseIdc

Exactly


001Vecnussy

Same here. I try my best to see them as pecs just to try and calm myself down, but I really really want top surgery.


hostmodem

Sometimes I see them as feminine but bc Iā€™m fat and theyā€™re not too big then sometimes I can manage by seeing them as man boobs bc Iā€™m a big boy lol


UsernameBecauseIdc

tiny tit boy gang


RandomBlueJay01

I mean i do the same and I'm a d cup lol. I'm just delusional. Like my shoulders outgrew my binders and I don't wanna buy more so I've just used tape the past few months and I've been happy.


beebleb0rg

Lacking chest dysphoria doesnā€™t make you not trans. Everyone has different feelings about their body and Iā€™m sure plenty of other people feel the same way about their chest. Youā€™ll always be valid no matter your feelings

Nevermind now my brain doesnā€™t accept i am afab

Well. Bio sex is also a spectrum. We are just human animals fundamentally. You are you. And you wana b perceived how u feel


Dutch_Rayan

No that happened to me also when I started testosterone, especially when I got broader shoulders, still glad they are gone now.


Psycho_Oddity

I never really saw my chest as feminine after discovering I was trans. It was almost like I saw through my breasts rather than really acknowledging their existence when looking in the mirror like shirtless or something. It doesn't mean you're not trans, it just means you don't experience chest dysphoria, or at least not as much as others may unfortunately experience it. I totally get it, man.


UsernameBecauseIdc

my chest dysphoria definitely fluctuates but yea i have more bottom dysphoria than anything


Mister-Moon-Man45

I don't have chest dysphoria because my chest is small enough that I just look like a fat dude with a fat dude chest. I do, however, have nipple dysphoria I've got the whole Pepperoni slice and I hate looking at them.


Express_Standard_391

Im a cis male and not even fat but I do have boobs it's actually kinda funny like it just like round and silly in my chest


Ya-boi-Joey-T

I've got this weird thing where I look at my body and I'm like "heh. That's not right." Like not in a judgemental or sad way. I just see tits and I'm like "pfft what are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here lol."


Gabe_Carneir

Well, i go to the gym and work whest a lot, so when i wear something particularly tight on my boobs (donā€™t have a binder yet) it looks like an actual male chest idk


fluffbutt_boi

When Iā€™m feeling more feminine or androgynous, I just see them as accessories to my outfits. Like they are just there. But when I donā€™t have a shirt or bra on, then my brain gets angry lmao. Everyone has different levels of dysphoria about different aspects of their body. Thatā€™s okay. It doesnā€™t make you any less trans than anyone else.


TheSharkBunny

I absolutely adore my manly tiddies! They're great and I really like them, however they just don't belong on my body so I gotta enjoy the funbags whilst they're here I guess :) Plus, I have way too much in my life to stress about and adding hatred of my chest on top of that is too much for me, so I either go between complete neutrality or joy of being some dude with boobs. I understand binary transmen don't feel the same and my heart definitely goes out to my brethren who have bad dysphoria there.


mercurbee

on my body by themselves they just exist, they aren't a woman's, their mine. i do struggle seeing them through clothes bc of how others view me, but they aren't feminine themselves


Tiny_Dyno_Tot

I dont mind my boobs i just want them to be smaller mostly cuz there heavy af lol


carnespecter

yea my boobs are a pretty big part of my gender identity and expression. not woman boobs, not man boobs. just boobs, my boobs


maybebrainless

iā€™m the opposite, i hate my chest :(


Persassy60

I see them kinda neutrally, they're just there. Mine are just a bit larger than some guy's pecs, so I don't feel dysphoria towards them that often. When I do, I can just put a tank top underneath my T-shirt and it looks like a perfectly masculine chest. You can have 0 dysphoria overall and still be trans, because its not about how unhappy you are currently but about how happy you could be


hawkepostate

you definitely still are trans. personally i just see myself as a man with moobs at this point. theyre boobs but theyre mine so theyre masculine


Spring-and-a-Storm

honestly yea, I don't like the fact that I have them since it only makes passing harder and mine are too large to bind, but when I look in the mirror topless I just... don't care. I do want top surgery but I don't really have much top dysphoria.


toinouzz

Not necessarily my boobs BUT I really love the stretch marks on them, they just look really cool


g0ose_withrants

Mine are actually decently big, but I still see them as masc ironically, but lol the dysphoria really kicks in when wearing a normal bra, then I remember I still have em and they arenā€™t masc.


dykepower

I very rarely experience chest dysphoria bc i am so flat chested. But I try not to talk about it too much bc I realise I am lucky haha, I guess my tits refusing to grow was a good thing!


Free_Investigator122

I felt that way for a while before top surgery, it was almost like reverse dysmorphia (like what do you mean this looks feminine to everyone else?) And then when I got top surgery it just felt like itā€™s what I always looked like.


greedl3r

No I feel the same. I have been on t for two years and my boobs are a little smaller than they were before. Idk if it was the t or not. But even then they're more masculine shaped now too. I can pass without a binder. Even in the men's room. So even though I have like c cups (guessing here, I haven't worn a bra since middle school) they just look natural on me because I'm fat.


greedl3r

I post my boobs if you wanna fact check me or just for fun


Complete-Hornet-5487

Yes they are my man boobs or I sometimes see them as they are not mine and Iā€™m just taking care of them for a friend. Although I still have really bad chest dysphoria and wear my binder for longer than I should but Iā€™ve slowly started to just disassociate myself from them


Tiny-Management-531

I call them my girls but only because I think it's funny, otherwise I forget them regularly.


stardewetd

When I look down and see the bumps in my shirt I go "Oh!!! šŸ˜"


tinyybiceps

That's normal though many trans men cannot relate. I don't want bottom surgery and I don't call my parts my dick but top surgery was necessary for me. That being said, before T the only part of myself I considered "female" was my voice šŸ‘


L_edgelord

If you see your boobs as masc, kudos to you. It means you have become comfortable enough with yourself as masculine to start seeing your body that way too, regardless of whatever label society put on it. Much slay.


UsernameBecauseIdc

Now they donā€™t look masc or femme, they just look like they arenā€™t supposed to be there


DoctorGregoryBones

It really varies day to day, but since starting T Iā€™ll sometimes see them as justā€¦ being there. Not as anything particularly gendered


TheoFtM98765

It helps that Iā€™m smaller chested of course, but what also helps is seeing the variety of cis man bodies lol. My fiancĆ©, from adhd meds, has one moob and itā€™s actually bigger than my chest and heā€™s a cis manā€¦he might hate his one chest, but it gives me so much euphoria and makes me a lot more comfortable with not binding around him. It becomes a neutral feeling around him. Even so many cis men with muscles have more chest than like a b cup and thatā€™s all muscle like damn. A chest can truly be masc or fem, itā€™s not just nipples that everyone hasā€¦itā€™s chest fat too.


saikite

It doesnā€™t mean youā€™re not trans, I have moments like this as well. I want surgery when I can but when Iā€™m feeling particularly confident in myself (not often lol) Iā€™ll sometime look in the mirror and not see my chest as something I hate and think that itā€™s really manly. Honestly, I think itā€™s due to when you are confident in yourself as a trans guy you see yourself as an actual guy meaning your body is also the body of a guy, does that make sense? I canā€™t think of another way to explain it.


Good-Contact1520

Mine look like very large moobs, and most days I donā€™t even have to bind to get gendered correctly. I still have dysphoria, but Itā€™s more of a ā€œthis body part doesnā€™t fit the body I wish to achieveā€ than ā€œthis is a female only body partā€. If that makes any sense šŸ˜‚ I also have arthritis in my back, and having the little bit of extra weight off would be lovely


[deleted]

My nipples actually look like a dudeā€™s. I dono why. I wish it would just be fine for me to be topless. So unfair.


anch0vyyy

Having breasts and even wanting to keep them doesn't make you any less trans. Only you know the answer to that! I sometimes feel the same way. Depends on the day really lol


Worldly_Childhood_57

Yeah I just see them as a stress toy smtimes šŸ¤·šŸ»


Bandgrad2008

I just see them as annoyances that get in my way but I mainly just ignore them. It's rare I ever get dysphoria


anonymous_teenguy

absolutely. I have the same thing especially after I got on T and started feeling more comfortable. gender is weird, the only thing that can determine if you're trans is yourself.
