Hey guys Aaron the teenage transguy is here again lol. Anyways i was thinking the other day that it would be great if we created this thread and everyone could contribute their own positive aspect of being a transguy. Soz if its stupid but I just thought that because our life is full of depression and dysphoria, that it would help to remember the positive things of life . So anyone plz add your own positive thing about being a transguy and I hope no one finds this stupid. haha 

Ill add a positive by saying that at least we can keep an erection for as long as we want lol! Also I guess you get to choose the size of your dick if you pack 

positive side is; I can get horny without having the Akward Boner.com

Positive; can guarantee to your dates parents/guardian that you won't get your date pregnant and have intercourse still

hey good replies so far guys made me laugh  lets hope more ppl add some more

I'm training to become a therapist and having male and female perspectives to draw from has been helpful... otherwise I'd say the youthfulness in appearance, probably helps us age well in that regard

That hasn't been working so well for me. The older guys (my age and up to ten or fifteen years older) I hang around with think they're MUCH older than I am, but I'm clearly too old to be "chicken." So they don't consider me as a possibility. But I'm not cute enough or buff enough for the younger crowds. And the not-having-a-regular-penis thing is a bit of a dealbreaker anyway.

What's positive for me...uh, let me get back to you on that one. I like my therapist. Does that count?

Positive: Our unique perspective on life and appreciation of our gender. So we notice when we're being treated as male, and we're happy- whereas if we were 'cis' we wouldn't care or appreciate it so much, if at all. It could be taken negatively, but I think anything that has the capacity to make us appreciate things in life more than usual is a good thing.

It's made me more open-minded. I can't think of anything else about bein' trans that has contributed positively to my life in any way.

I consider it a curse that I can't knock up a girl, accidentally or otherwise.

I can't accidentally get someone pregnant.

We can get knee-ed in the groin without curling up and crying. I've actually found that to be a plus several times.

A penis of any size is worth being proud of

you have no "bits" to "go south" when you get old.

Found out my friends are all cooler people than I thought when I came out. XD

I know what teenage girls go through with their mothers too, though that's information with limited use and was no fun to acquire.

I can wear THESE SHOES! If I were biologically male, I could never wear them ;_;! I also still fit in a lot of awesome kid's stuff :'D! I have an awesome Optimus Prime hat and gloves intended for small boys :'P. Makes my poor boyfriend look more and more like Pedobear as the days go by, but as long as I got my ID to prove I'm 21, he'll be fine :'D.

I just notice..

One of the very positive thing is I can look at it from both view of a situation which can be pretty usefull..

there many guys who kinda boast about that they know what women wants and like and so on so on.
it kinda make me laught because how can they know if they havent even been to a female toilet once in there life?

I find it kinda usefull when my female x male friend have problems then I somehow feel I can understand there situation alittle more,
hard to explain, but ex,
2 people are together, the guy want sex the girl have her period and reject him.
then I know how it is for guys and there sexual who are bigger than womens but I also knows how it is for girls to have there period.

normal people would find it hard to look exactly on both sides and could posible only see it from there own view.
"
I know this is probebly a bad exemple but it where the only one I could think about.

guys have less drama

no lines in bathrooms

no embarrassing boners

You can choose your dick size.

I find it spectacular to have a "feminine socialization" -- what with not living with my dad and being brought up as a girl, my sister and I could change in the same room, talk about periods XD, all sorts of stuff. Being a drag queen, it's handy to've been able to wear dresses as a child.

Being smaller makes me seem like less of a threat, so apparently the people my principal was afraid would hurt me (the big thuggish guys who are six foot eight foot twelve XD) find me to feminine and tiny (compared to them) to be any trouble, so they've never ganged up on me. They're generally more accepting, which is amusing.

Appreciating the diversity of genders is a nice bonus. And being more easily satisfied. Old man calls a cisguy "son" -- the guy will think nothing of it. I get called son, I'm still as ecstatic as the first time it ever happened. (This can come with the sad side-effect of being very sensitive to names and pronouns.)

My children are what comes to mind at that question.  I could of had children had I been born biologically male but they wouldn't be these children ... so I'm happy for that.

Also I agree that we have a unique perspective of both the male and the female worlds.  Although I never did fit into the female world, I did get a lot of inside information.

Also it has been said that we can have a dick that never goes soft and is always ready to go.    

It's hard, at times, to be thankful for it but I can appreciate the incredible life experience of transitioning.  Most people don't get the chance to realize who they are to such an extent.  It's a chance to be stronger and look deeper than most will ever do.  It's living so far out of the box you need a pair of binoculars to look back and see it.  It's an unique path and I'm grateful for what I have learned about myself and about the world around me.

That just reminded me.
None of that awkward "walking into a bathroom expecting to piss and walking into a full goddamn conversation" crap anymore.
Seriously, why do women do that? Trying to wash my hands, having to elbow/shoulder/shove my way to the damn sink with these girls looking at me like I was the inconvenience? I never even pretended to understand that one.
