Description
My name is Ryan. I am an ftm transgender boy. Pre surgery, pre-T, pre everything. I'm 17 years old.Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror, or through a camera and become dysphoric because of my breasts. The thing is, I know that if they weren't there, I would have at least a hint of pectorals.
I promised myself recently that instead of taking it out in a negative way when I get dysphoric, I'll create some sort of art, embracing it.
Tools used: Pencil, eraser, paper, webcam and a little bit of photoshop. And of course my sexy self

your body does not define who you are, but your body may show different than what you think you are, don't let people tell you what you aren't. You're beautiful btw.

This is really great - i've been trying to deal with my dysphoria thru art too, lately, and it's been helping. Β It's really hard being trans in this world. Β I think this portrait says that in a really bold way. Β I wish people would understand, no matter how much theyΒ may think i look pretty, when i look in the mirror, without "dressing up" i hate it. Β I really hate it. Β So, i make art.

Hi Ryan - this photo is great - I'd love to use it for a presentation I'm doing for therapists who are trying to learn how to better serve the trans community (I'm ftm). Would you be willing to let me use it for my presentation? thanks for considering my request - Colin
