Transgender Q & A

What if they tell you they don't know what Everton is :#

That's great, I like people that don't know Everton .... now i'd just have to check they don't support Man United and we'd be golden.

As long as those 2 are checked off we'd have no Football arguments, we'd get along great and it's beer and kebabs all round ;P

Alas i've just cleaned my car so i'm afraid the chat up line you're used to won't be used here.

My brother likes Man U, but (on the -very- rare occasion I paid attention to it), I always preferred liverpool (though I couldn't tell you who's on their team or their history or anything about them). Pretty much only because their home field was the only football field I've ever visited in England, and their logo thing is pretty. :/

Cars just sound uncomfortable to have sex in.

If you were to have a ball pit in your home though.
That sounds intriguing.

Just the other day I was thinking of redecorating and thought that what my house was missing was a ball pit.

And a wall mounted cinema system .... but mainly the ball pit.

And maybe a bigger kitchen.

And one of those huge corner baths.

What about a couch room? Like an entire room where there is no floor, just couch.
Imagine the couch fort you could build with a room like that...

Spoiler: something like this, but more awesome

Oooooh a couch room....

That would be useful for so many things....

Couch forts indeed but imagine crawling in at silly o clock in the morning absolutely rat arsed drunk ... walk into couch room and just flop over without having to worry about breaking your face on the floor.

I need a couch room.

With a wall mounted cinema system.

And a mini fridge next to it.

And a kettle.

I'd never get up again.

Also wouldn't have to worry about falling off couch during a nap or rolling around sex.... couch room is good.

You could pretty much just rent out every other room in your house.
Maybe keep the bathroom.

Bucket in the corner?

Not romantic?

Be tempted to sell my house and get a flat just to fill it full of couch .... maybe not a bucket though.

Wouldn't have to be a bucket, could just be an easily accessible window, depending on your feelings about maybe being seen naked.

Well i'm not shy, doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Might bother someone walking by that happens to have their head urinated on but, to be fair, that would be hilarious.

Yes, i'm that mature.

Well yeah, why shouldn't you laugh? You wouldn't be the person with pee on their head.

S'all good.

They do say if a Pigeon craps on your head it's supposed to be lucky .... wonder if it's the same if a person happens to have their arse hanging out of a window and lands it on someones head....

Unless it's explosive diarrhea ... that won't be pretty.

Also, yay for random meaningless conversations.

To be fair if it were explosive diarrhea it could probably sail over the sidewalk and any pedestrians, instead landing on the road/cars (or a nearby building).

Some levity is always good

I'd have to get bottles of whiskey in and have drinking games on who can get their bodily fluids the furthest.

The pavement outside my house would smell a bit but the giggles would be worth it.

Now I feel bad for all the fun I wasted down the toilet.

And this conversation is just getting stranger. I'm sure this thread had a topic at one point.

I do apologise for whoevers thread it i've stolen. Just be glad B isn't here and we don't have talks about whippings on top of window loo's.

Part of the reason why there's some anxiety is because of the quality and cost of that operation. Here in the US we've mostly got cheap-asses that practice an old technique that doesn't look the best, doesn't self-lubricate, and loses sensation due to the crudeness of the operation. That is changing, but slowly, and like any surgery the good ones cost an obscene amount of money.

Aha, I see. And what about in the adult industry side of things? There seems to be a very large demand for, and I don't mean to be disrespectful by using a no-doubt childish term, chicks-with-dicks. I myself tend to watch a video of Vaniity or Bailey Jay on occasion. But does that sort of thing leak out into everyday life as well for transsexuals? Are there some who actually wish to keep their original genitalia intact for whatever reason?

The adult industry has a rather interesting effect on us: some of our more appealing candidates go in because it's easy money and they get to fuck for money in relative safety. It puts out quite a bit of cash and makes transitioning much faster and easier, provided you've got the appeal to do so. There is a flip-side of that: job security in that field is a big one. To keep looking that great while still being able to fuck with the original genitalia, one has to very carefully maintain a strict balance of Estrogen injections: too much shuts it down, while too little makes the masculine features appear more prominently. For example, Bailey is often seen with bangs in her hair: the reason why is to hide a certain feature: a sharper brow ridge, an artifact left over from her previous life. Another side effect is that to keep doing that, they have to keep up the estrogen shots to higher pre-op levels, which often leads to faster aging. In short: the adult film industry has mixed effects on our demographic. My recommendation for transwomen is this: if you're pretty enough and don't mind others ogling you, go for it, but don't stick around for too long and get comfortable: your career in that field is likely going to be much shorter than you think.

As for that industry's effects on us who are not in the business, yeah, occasionally certain people want to have sex with us when we're pre-op because of that effect. Some oblige, others don't. It really depends on a case-by-case situation. Hell, to be honest I wouldn't mind a few rounds in bed with another like me, but that's just because of my rather flexible sexuality.

Finally, yes, there are plenty of us that keep the original tools, and for varying reasons. Some keep it because of their occupation, like Bailey, Vaniity, and many of their bedmates, while others keep the tools for reasons like sensitivity and the like, due to most of the practitioners using old techniques that might look okay but are numb as fuck (newer techniques are being applied to circumvent this problem, as well as others). Others still have their own reasons.

Ah, I see. It's a lot more complicated than I first thought it'd be. I must say, my sympathy for people who believe they are born in the wrong body has grown with this post. Seems like a complete nightmare trying to change over, and that isn't even touching on the bigotry/discrimination. I was looking on Wikipedia the other day, where some transsexuals were actually murdered simply for being that. It's a shame. I can only assume that the future for transsexuals is looking brighter though. Maybe the whole process will be much easier and smoother in a few decades or whatever.

 

[Angie7F]

I have one.
I often wonder how different it is to feel like you were born into the wrong body ( so you would become trans), as compared to feeling like your body is never good enough (eating disorders, Body Dysmorphic Disorder etc).

Right now I think Body Dysmorphic Disorder can be caused by wanting to be trans, but not the other way around.

i have no idea what exactly I expect as an answer to this question, but it interests me.

Why is transgender porn so popular? How can a guy who looks like a girl considered by some folks on the internet hot and wanna have sex with that person? Does having sex with a pre-transgender male considered gay??

I think this really has to do with anonymity, and not so much of "why is it so popular?". On the internet, you're whoever you want to be. Sure, Google or any other site can get info on you from your searches, but even so how far they're willing to go or able to go with that information is limited, so there's still a level of anonymity.

It's most likely popular because some people really are just attracted to "shemales" or "trannies" or whatever term you'd like to use. Just in public, not many will be outspoken about it.

It's kind of like the issue with homosexuality in America. Some studies have been done that make it appear as if only 2% of the United States is homosexual, but in actuality, that number is most likely far higher. Why though? Because many that are gay aren't willing to admit it, or they're in an area where they fear there will be some backlash for their sexuality.

The actual number is roughly 20%.

Fun.


I actually have a question, in my own thread, no less.

I'm honestly not that far into my transition. I have my first appointment with an endocrinologist in April, I am hoping to be able to get my perscription for hormones at that time, but I am worried about additional delays.

Would it be reasonable for me to expect to walk out of the office on that day with a perscription?

 

[RhombusHatesYou]

Yes, i'm that mature.

Pssshhht. You're ex-British Army. I'd be surprised if you could honestly say that there was never a time you wanked into a mate's beret while on duty.
