Hey guys! I know that many of us are not on tumblr (and that's fine really, I myself wish i wasn't there, sometimes it can get quite heated) so I decided to make a thread with all the resources I could think of!

A masterpost with useful resources (like shopping, "passing", etc) by germball
A masterpost more focused on Transitioning, by Neutrois
More resources on NB/genderqueer individuals
A resource for dmab trans/non-binary who are looking for a bra
Sadly I couldn't find many trans women/dmab non-binary resources, but i'll search for some more!
I'm doing my research and I will try to update this with more masterposts full with useful resources! in the mean time, you guys can also put your resources / useful links / useful advice here, because i feel like this community really is needing some support (we are all needing it tbh)

Great idea I'll think some more and sift through the resources that I use frequently, but seeing as it is summer in my part of the world, here's a post on masculine swimwear from dapperQ:
Ask dapperQ: Masculine Swimwear Part II

About dapperQ:
"dapperQ is a visibility project that celebrates the inner and outer beauty of masculine-presenting lesbians, gender-nonconformists and genderqueers, and transmasculine individuals of all colors, shapes, and sizes. dapperQ does have a fashion focus. But, more importantly, it serves as a vehicle to explore fashion as a social construct, providing our readers and writers with a safe space to document and discuss how gender role expectations, particularly with respect to gender identity and expression, shape who we are as individuals and as a community" (About)

The fashion presented tends to be expensive (they make a point of promoting small, trans-owned businesses, for example), but there are also tips on more affordable options. And generally, for me it is a place to get some inspiration/new ideas fashion-wise.

Thanks for these! Awesome info

Here's another FtM resource that I quite like: The FTM's Complete Illustrated Guide to Looking Like a (Hot) Dude
It also includes a guide on exercises for shaping your body to look more masculine here: http://ftmguide.rassaku.net/fitness2.htm

I just came across this three part q&a (Answers about transgender issues) from the New York times: http://nyti.ms/1nREAmi

It's from 2010, so not super recent, but it seems a good place to start to learn more about trans* things, especially for cis people, and it links to a lot of resources. There are links to part two and three on the page.

Here's a resource that looks really good. Lots of positive messages:
