Yes, I have followed tutorials, but it still comes out like a slightly more put together lump of fabric.

It's fine, I don't need to be among the hallowed dozen.

I messaged them to ask why I was banned. I'll have to wait to see what they say.

Wild that I was banned before I even had a chance to really use the app.

I literally have no idea what I did wrong.

There was nothing provocative in my profile, which was filled out according to the options they privided. My bio was brief, saying basically that I'm a historian and I work for a nonprofit.

I'm wondering if it's because I'm trans masc?

Every person I had the potential to match with was trans, which the app seemed to self-select for, I guess because I'm trans?

(Is Bumble BFF solely T4T??)

But of the dozen or so profiles I clicked through, only one was trans masc. Idk if that had something to do with why?

No mascs allowed??
