Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Even though I hate the word ever since I was a freshman up until know I pass really well, Plus everyone who knew me as a girl already graduated, The only people who are left either know me as strictly Brandon or know my situation, Although there are quite a few ignorant people but not alot. I'm getting ready to order the peecock gen 2, I was unsure of it before because of coloring but I realized everyones genetalia is darker than them so the African Brown would actually work because it blends well. I already know how to stand to pee because I made a funnel like device but unfourtunately it got thrown away because I left it out, so I need something thats gonna stay in my pants. Thing is I can't go to the girls bathroom because I get looks to often. I've stepped into the boys bathroom and got no looks or laughs. Plus I have bio guy friends who accept me and know I'm trans but really don't care, So I'm wondering if I should talk to my guidance counselour??

I'd talk to the counselor. Let them know you get odd looks in the girl's room. Hopefully, they're cool with it. Based off what you've said about your school in the past, I'd wager they will be, but we don't want you getting into trouble.
Do you plan to use the boy's lockerroom as well? I'd talk to counselor and maybe your pe teacher about it, as well. You should be able to come up with a plan together (if you have one in mind already, make sure toy share it with them). They might just tell you to change in toilet stalls.
Good luck!

No I took PE already I opted for cooking because I need to learn plus I'm also in symphonic band we have 7 hours so I get more electives.

Ah. PE is mandatory in all four years of high school where I live. Lucky dog, you.

 I would say talk to a counselor, just so you don't have any future troubles.

Hey,


I was in the same boat at you. It got to the point where girls would straight out tell me i was in the wrong place. The one day a girl actually "tattled" on me so haha. From then I was already in grade 11 and just started using the mens. I did speak to a counsellor at my place and I got permission to use the single stall washrooms which I actually prefered. Also I've never used a STP device and no one has ever given me a funny look or anything so don't be worried about going without one for a bit. That's the great things about the dudes washroom (at least in my experience) no one cares about your business in there .

Goodluck !

Thanks but I will have it before school starts because I am ordering it tomorrow but yea ill talk to my counselor

I am in college, a large campus too, so much different from being in high school.  I started here as a girl on record and dress somewhat. By the end of the first semester I was dressing as many of the guys jeans and shirt, thou not t-shirts as my chest shows too much.  I was getting looks and probably some comments too don't remember in the women's restrooms and being on campus all day sometimes I needed to use them.  My second year I decided to use the men's restrooms in a nearby building where there was little chance of meeting students that I was in class with as I was in computer science and this was a fine arts building.  I first few times it was hard to get use to guys not talks and coming in and leaving quickly no chatting.  It takes longer to walk there and back but works great for me.  I am very comfortable using them, try to go when there are likely to be few other in there.  No one has very gave me a odd look or question.  I now use only the men's when out and need too go, have even had to wait for a stall a few times when in busy places, stadiums, etc.  Good luck to you Brandon, probably should talk to a counselor before school starts if you can.
