I was told I can't have prostate cancer, as I don't have a prostate.

I was denied a haircut at the salon, just because I'm completely bald.

I was refused admission to the daycare, and called an adult.

I was told I shouldn't drink bleach, by someone who doesn't even know my liver and kidney function.

That's so fucking TERFphobic babe I have all the symptoms of prostate cancer too, just without the prostate, but they keep telling me I'm wasting their time and that there's nothing to find in there

Bleeding is the ONLY SYMPTOM THAT IS SPECIFIC TO MENSTRUATION

The ONLY single universal signifier of a period is bleeding

It is the ONLY shared similarity of every period every woman has ever had is the blood

I don't get random cramps and think I'm on my period. I don't get cravings and think I'm menstruating. I don't feel constipated or more annoyed one day and automatically attribute it to my period. Why? Because it im not bleeding, it's not a "period symptom" it is JUST a symptom, and typically of just being a normal human being. If you're having cramps without bleeding/a uterus, you're just having cramps. Get over yourself....And Not once have I ever mistaken a different bodily function or pain for the pain I get on my period because it's not even remotely the same. Men cannot ever understand this feeling as they have no uterus. The fact they genuinely believe that constipated gas pains are even vaguely similar to menstrual cramps is so misogynistic and disgusting already, but the fact society actually listens and listened to them immediately about having period cramps over hundreds to thousands of yrs of women talking about our ACTUAL PERIOD CRAMPS tells you everyone knows they're men

VestalVirginMarch 13, 2025

Yeah.

No woman would ever be stupid enough to think that because she gets random cramps or cravings or mood swings that she cannot be pregnant. Because those things are not a period.

And if a girl during puberty had bad cramps in that area but never had any bleeding, you'd take her to a doctor to find out if there's something wrong with her reproductive organs. You would NOT say "Oh, she got her period" and give her painkillers.

That last sentence makes me want to put my first through the wall.

Note that post-menopausal women on HRT do not have phantom periods.

"I have to keep drilling it into my family's head that they must play along with my fantasy. Luckily, I have a therapist who is willing to do that, otherwise I'd have to shop around for a new one."

That therapist is only thinking of their paycheck.

pennygadgetMarch 13, 2025

Treating trans people must be the easiest paycheck ever. Just shout "YAS QUEEN" or "YAS KING" or "YAS NON-BINARY ROYAL" for an hour, rubber stamp their hormone prescription, and collect your fee

Your friends and family are not in "doctor mode", they're simply pointing out the truth. You're a man. Men don't have PMS. And your therapist probably only smiled because she knew that if she didn't affirm your delusion, you'd throw a tantrum. Or maybe she's a handmaiden. Either way, you're delusional. Kudos to your friends and family for not hopping onto that bandwagon.

pennygadgetMarch 13, 2025

The therapist was thinking about the sweet new yacht she was gonna buy with all the money she got paid for doing nothing but smiling at delusional men all day

JehaneMarch 13, 2025

That, too :)

This fucking moron. PRE MENSTRUAL SYNDROME. MENSTRUAL. THE BLOOD. LITERALLY, THE ONE THING YOU CAN'T DO.

SmartierthanthouMarch 13, 2025

Ah, yes...the pre menstrual syndrome of the organ you don't have, in a pelvis you don't have, orchestrated by the endocrine system you will never have, that you only know about because you've appropriated it from women who have these things.

Sometimes my wings get cramped after a long flight and I wish that someone knew how to massage them properly.

bareminimumMarch 13, 2025

They invalidate billions of people actually dealing with real periods to stake some sort of paltry claim on the female experience. Fucking losers.

AtropaBelladonnaMarch 13, 2025

Setting aside that this notion is patently ridiculous, as they don't have a uterus, how is this possible? They keep their hormones steady at artificially high levels all the time. How do they get the necessary natural hormonal fluctuations of real women required for menstruation?

turnipMarch 13, 2025(Edited March 13, 2025)

some of them attempt to cycle their hormones (taking 1 week off 3 weeks on) which will still never replicate the intricate balance of hormones in a healthy woman.

SarahWilliams_13March 13, 2025

It’s not possible and they aren’t getting the necessary hormone reactions. They don’t even know how any of this works biologically. But they don’t care.

notapatsyMarch 14, 2025

And even if they were getting fluctuating hormone levels, what they would feel would not be premenstrual symptoms! You have to actually have a uterus and menstruate in order to have premenstrual symptoms!

VestalVirginMarch 14, 2025

Yeah, if they fluctuate their hormone levels to give themselves symptoms, that's just fluctuating hormone levels in a male.

AtropaBelladonnaMarch 13, 2025

Right. They keep insisting that they do, and I'm trying to figure out why they're so insistent that it's possible. I guess the obvious "they're stupid fetishist colonizers" is the real answer, which is as lame as they are.

Them eating Taco Bell and calling the outcome a period seems like the intellectual equivalent of me saying I take so long in the bathroom because of prostate problems, when the reality is it's because I bring my phone.

AtropaBelladonnaMarch 13, 2025

I caved and looked at the thread. A TIM said:

Fun fact: Even though exogenous estrogen is supplied at a steady rate, it's still up/down regulated by the pituitary gland in the same way, your body changes how it responds to it on, well, a monthly cycle.

I asked ChatGPT, "If a male takes exogenous estrogen, will the male's pituitary gland process the estrogen the same way as a female's pituitary gland?"

ChatGPT responded:

No, a male's pituitary gland will not process exogenous estrogen in exactly the same way as a female's pituitary gland. While estrogen plays a regulatory role in both male and female endocrine systems, key physiological differences exist due to baseline hormonal environments and receptor sensitivity.

So, it sounds like this explanation is as bogus as the rest of their "science".

VestalVirginMarch 13, 2025

I often wake up at night and need to pee. Guess it is my prostate! After all, all problems to do with urination must have the same cause! 🙄

hard_headed_womanMarch 13, 2025(Edited March 13, 2025)

I swear I'd want to slap that smile off of his face.

Ok, so I know that's going to get deleted!

BisphosphateMarch 14, 2025

Reminds me of a TIM that builds himself a hut and lives there for a week every month to get a boner.

pennygadgetMarch 13, 2025

I smiled while experiencing PMS!

Said no woman ever

Also, if any doctor smiled at me while I explained my PMS symptoms, I'd punch them in the fucking face

LunarMooseMarch 13, 2025

Let me guess......His therapist is also a man.

bareminimumMarch 13, 2025

I feel like it could go either way but i pictured a female nonbinary lmao

snailsMarch 13, 2025

I was imagining the therapist was smiling cause she was holding back a laugh

notapatsyMarch 14, 2025

That's what I thought, too.

TrappedInACarMarch 13, 2025

The therapist was likely smiling to cover up not having a response to his delusions. Of course you can’t have pre-menstrual syndrome without menstruation and smiling at the thought of having PMS is not something any actual woman has ever done anyway.

PhryneMarch 13, 2025

Whatever he's paying his therapist, it isn't enough.

nomenarewomenMarch 13, 2025

Dude. No one cares. Fuck off and worry about your prostate instead.

SaladSparklzMarch 13, 2025

Ha! I can't imagine living a life that is this pathetic.
