A community for transfeminine people and experiences.

This is a supportive community for all transfeminine or questioning people. Anyone is welcome to participate in this community but disrupting the safety of this space for trans feminine people is unacceptable and will result in moderator action.

Debate surrounding transgender rights or acceptance will result in an immediate ban.

Posters may express that they are looking for responses and support from groups with certain experiences (eg. trans people, trans people with supportive parents, trans parents.). Please respect those requests and be mindful that your experience may differ from others here.

To make such a request, at the start of the body of your post, not in the title, the first line should look like the this: [Requesting Engagement from _________]

We saw The Beths opening for Alvvays last night and it was amazing.

How is downtown Portland doing? I knew the location as soon as I saw the picture. My wife and I live in BC but got married in Portland and visited a lot in 2010-2014 but haven't been back since we had a kid. We stayed in a hotel about 2 blocks from that plaza a few times.

It’s slowly but gently coming back to life after being battered to hell in the pandemic!

Well that's good... I've been trying to work on my courage to visit downtown more often... (Just right outside the city!) But I can't even walk down the street longer than 10 minutes without someone catcalling me or asking me for something. Headphones don't even do anything anymore. 😭

I live out in Hillsboro, but I have to go into the city all the time for work and social stuff and things. I’m at the Worker’s Tap most Friday nights, at the trans social there. You’re always welcome to come.

AAAAA! I know about the worker's tap! ;0; Chur not the only transfem I met here already. They've also been trying to get me to go but just... Wehhhh... Travelling alone is rough for me, especially since I can't drive so I'm forced to either carpool or public transport. (And even with the trimet, I still am just anxious the entire time. >^<)

I'll get over it... Eventually... maybe
