Acupuncture can be very helpful for both inflammation and auto immune issues.

Hello I thought I would make a thread like this primarily because I don't think there has ever been one like this on TDB since its beginning. So yes I am a transgendered woman (assigned male at birth, now female). You may have known me on here previously as dmattwads. Understandably there is some confusion on here when people see old posts of mine talking about male cultivation practices. I realize that the topic of transgenderism is very poorly understood by the general public and so I decided to make a Q&A post. I will NOT however answer super personal questions about my body so its not an AMA (ask me anything). I will though be happy to answer well intentioned questions about what it means to be transgendered because there may be those out there that are questioning for themselves, know someone that is transgendered, or just want to understand this topic better. Maddie :-)

You know what is crazy? I probably won't do it because I don't like guns but lately with all the craziness going on I have been wondering if I should get one. I'm a pacifist so I don't like the idea.

I honestly think you're a nice person and I don't think anyone denies that but it's only been a week and I think such a viewpoint is extremely naive.

Where are all the people saying he was just talking now?

I still try to smile

No I just do mat Pilates off of YouTube in my living room, because ..... introvert lol

I do a combination of yoga and Pilates.

Control is an illusion anyways. Illusions cause suffering.

I don't believe in god(s)

I guess a good preliminary question would be to define which god one is talking about?

I left lol

I had an ex like this

You're studying acupuncture? cool. I'm an LAc.

More like realizing that they are not what you assume them to be.
