I think this is the right place to ask, if not I apologise but after skimming through the forums this seems to be the most appropriate place to enquire! I'm new to this place and the reason I ended up signing up is uh,
Well, to ask this question I suppose.
I'm FtM trans, I've settled into the name Madison and I'm gay. I'm currently in a long-distance relationship with another [lovely] FtM fella and so I will likely ask him a similar question. But I figured I would come here for advice too, since I think hearing some other opinions will be handy!
Introductions aside, I'm struggling a lot with dysphoria. I'm pre-T, pre-top op and pre-bottom op. I have a binder and I'm going through referrals and doctor visits to get help moving on with my transition. I figured that might help to understand where I'm at with the transition n all in case that has any effect on anything.
My birthday is coming up and I'm planning on getting a sex toy for the first time in my life.
I'm a sub/bottom and my consensual sexual experience hasn't ever been penetrative so I don't quite know exactly what I like outside of anal. So I was thinking and I was wondering if I should give my birth genitals a chance.
The thought of using my feminine genitalia for anything at all makes me feel sick to my stomach and dysphoria in general brings me to the point [though not all the time] where I throw up, and I'm extremely anxious about inserting anything down there in case it causes similar or worse distress both emotionally and physically. I feel uncomfortable thinking about it but at the same time I know that some FtM people use their genitals sexually and get pleasure out of it. I, personally, have never gotten any sort of pleasure from that region but I also haven't tried much due to the fear and discomfort+dysphoria it brings on.
So, with that all in consideration, would it be worth trying or should I hang back? I live by a rule of "try things because that way you'll find what you do and don't like" but I'm hesitant in this situation.
Edit: Sexual frustration hasn't helped during this situation and I've been feeling a lot of it. I'm partially concerned that if I don't try, that frustration won't leave. Just thought I'd add this in case is affected anything c:
