Trans and Transparent

This week on Trans & Transparent, we start things off with a chaotic night out story before getting into a conversation about packing, tucking, dysphoria and whether any of this is actually supposed to be as uncomfortable as people make it seem. We talk about our own experiences, how to get into packing and tucking in the first place, the trial-and-error that comes with it, and the stuff nobody really explains to you when you’re figuring it out.This episode is sponsored by Dys4ick, a brand we genuinely love and recommend for gender-affirming products that actually prioritize comfort.https://dys4ick.com/discount/Hunter10

In this episode, we sit down and react to some of our old YouTube videos from before we transitioned. Watching these clips brought up a lot of feelings. We laughed at the awkward moments, cringed at some of our choices, and got emotional seeing how far we have both come. It turned into a really honest conversation about who we were back then, how we saw ourselves, and what it feels like to look back at a version of yourself that was still figuring everything out.

This week on Trans & Transparent, we talk about how HRT can affect ADHD and how ADHD can shape the transition experience. We also recap Valborg and share an important update on Benji’s relationship with the lotus position.

Answering questions we never though we would on the internet… and getting drunk while doing it (which didn’t help)Disclaimer: We don't encourage underage drinking, We are both of legal age so keep this in mind

This week on Trans & Transparent, we read an email Benji got from a trans man who shares how the lotus position has worked for him, which leads us into a broader conversation about sex and figuring out what actually feels good in your own body.We also talk more generally about sex, expectations, and the different ways people experience intimacy, plus Benji shares what it was like going to couples therapy for the first time and what he took away from it.

This week, we’re getting into all the noise around the new Harry Potter series and why we’re not buying into it. We talk about the baggage that comes with the franchise, how it affects trans people and the wider queer community, and why choosing not to watch is actually a valid (and sometimes important) choice.
