Hello everyone,

I've been directly affected by institutional transphobia in-real life. This has hurt me immensely. I make an effort to limit my intake of online transphobia for the sake of my mental health. 

With that said, I feel like my experience on BN has been overwhelmingly positive since the first day I joined over 13 years ago. I even made some deep friendships through this forum. My point is, I don't feel bothered or on-edge with BN like I do with the much larger, mainstream social media sites. Unlike elsewhere on the Internet, on BN we're all united with a common interest of pursing breast development/growth, whether we be trans, cis or other genders. As a trans woman, I don't feel like there's an "us vs. them" mentality here. I have no issues with sharing my experiences of being on PM (on/off for about 9 years) or HRT (4 years) with the cis guys here.

The most problematic of posts I've seen are the spam posters that quickly get deleted/removed by the moderators.

Yeah as it should be its lovely seeing how you ladies progress on your journeys. As it is for everybody else here regardless of gender or orientation. Yeah hate those spammers I report them soon as I see a post pop up! Plus it's a positive thing for others who are closeted trans or just coming out to see that yeah you can come here and chat to others who are on that journey or gone through it and gain alot from it.
