A few tips for young trans men/boys, transmascs, anybody who wants tips:
- If somebody makes you insecure about your masculinity or manhood, 9/10 times, they're trying to sell you something (and the "something" won't be worth you fretting about)
- Wash your face before shaving and use a good shaving cream. Always make sure your razors are sharp
- Your body doesn't need to look like a Hollywood star's body. They are most certainly dehydrated, and they are not a realistic depiction of a masculine or male form
- Dress in whatever way is most comfortable, including dressing like Adam Sandler
- Military-grade is often used as a marketing scheme, save your money
- If you aren't happy right now, one day you will be. This is a threat and a promise
- Your emotions are not "good" or "bad," they are emotions. Let yourself feel them even if they are uncomfortable
- Masculinity and/or being a man are yours to define, and I cannot stress how important it is to have a relationship with your masculinity and/or manhood that is defined by you
- You're allowed to have any relationship with your pre-coming out self that you want or makes the most sense with your realization that you're trans
