Transexuality

[Vagabondage]

@shatterspike1

Isn’t anyone on this forum (besides me) comfortable in their current gender? I mean, I kinda expected wyvern to make a topic like this, but this kind of response, is, well, unexpected…

…

I mean, everyone that replied to this so far seemed to say they had wyvern’s troubles. Isn’t that just a little odd?

I’m comfortable with my gender…

I guess my post was misleading.

Back on topic, I could never say to a transexual that i understand his pain, or that he’s not trying hard enough to be satisfied with their gender. I could only sympathise with the person that he is feeling sad or uncomfortable himself. While i don’t agree with all the labels that some people have; i may not understand or approve of homosexuality, religion, etc, in the end i treat a person as a person, without labels or prejudice.

Wow, that Bonaparte guy really derailed this topic…he’s a troll, plain and simple. I have never heard first hand a person being that ridiculously hateful towards a group of people before. It’s so over the top, that it’s pretty funny.

All the troll posts by Bonaparte and the off topic replies have now been removed

To be perfectly honest, I would prefer to be a woman over being a man. I am a guy, though, and I will just play the hand that I was dealt. The whole idea of getting surgery to change my sex just really seems unnatural to me, though. Like, I would rather be a true guy than a surgically altered woman. It just seems really unnatural to me. Interestingly, I remember hearing a stat that the majority of men who change to become women, most of them don’t get the final surgery replacing the penis with a vagina. Like, I think the stat said 1% go through with the procedure, or some other really low stat.

for better or worse transexuallity to me is a mental health problem. if a man wants to be another gender there is something wrong mentally with him regardless of what people may think.

Society for the most part brushs over transexuals but to me they have a mental health problem and needs to be treated as such.

It would be very odd if nature produced complete females and males all the time.

Just to make clearer what i meant here - I think there is probably a very small percentage (around 8% maybe) of people in the whole world who are purely one sex.

@Myrmior

I don’t think any of us are assigned a gender at our core.

That’s a good way of putting it.

I don’t agree with that. Treating a transexual with drugs and therapy is not going to make them suddenly accept their body of the opposite sex. For example (I’m not very good at examples - I know what i mean but i’m not sure if the rest of you will ) Nature makes mistakes with limbs so ofcourse it can make mistakes with hormones and that kind of thing too.

Mohegan, maybe that could be due to the fact of puberty.

I stop caring, I still feel the same way. I guess in some way I just realised nothing is ever going to change. It’s really hard to explain.

@TheRealJollyRoger

i kinda sorta fit into this catagory too

Although that may be a bit apperent from some of the dreams i have most people think i’m just goofy

and that’s definitely part of it. But the whole “uncomfortable with gender” thing was since… hmmm a Long time

Anyway i’ve never really been bothered about it unless i thought about it. But recently it’s been a little more prevalent , maybe because i have never expressed it to anyone so it sorta built up.

so yeah but i think i’m done with denying it or any of that crap. Of course with my friends and family, i won’t go ahead and say anything anywho so yeah that’s my story, it’s not a very good one

but even beyond that i think there are a ton different variables, for one, i doubt i would be content either way.

I’ve always been fascinated with transformation, and stuff like that. So that might contribute.

Anyway, that is one of the main reasons for me pursuing lucid dreaming.

and GOD *** THAT FEELS GOOD TO GET OFF MY CHEST

honestly really good. i was even going to be all empowered and change the gender in my profile to “none specified” yeah that would show em’! but apperently i can’t. well whatever

Ditto, TRJR. that is actually also my main reason to get into LD:ing. But I have not succeeded FULLY yet. More LD’s to come

Oh, and to say something about the subject… I can’t see why it would be wrong. Not at all. What I’m “scared” of mostly are grown-up males who dress in women-clothes. It looks freaky. But if you’re the kind of transexuals who deep inside feel “Why do I have to be of this gender?” that’s completely okay for me. I wouldn’t disrespect / hate / whatever that kind of person in anyway (unless they had an uncaring personality )

I have some interesting experience regarding this topic. When I was young I had a dream that I was a girl, and it affected me ever since. But after many years of contemplation, I realized that I didn’t want to actually be a girl, per se. I just wanted the feeling of being a girl, like in the dream, which I have since been cultivating via meditation.

I don’t really consider myself male. I don’t think I could classify as such. My innate behavior and attitudes are very androgynous. And not once have I ever masturbated like a guy. (and no, I’m not going to elaborate)

The only “guy” things I have any interest in are video games and physical strength, although lately I haven’t been spending much time on the latter.

So who here on this forum is transexual. Becuase i think i’m getting the wrong message here, it seems that everyone is ok with it and that there are like three people here that are. Other than this site, aren’t people more “close minded” towards this subject.

@Sevenfold

So who here on this forum is transexual.

I don’t consider myself transexual, the term has its own connotation. I might use androgynous to describe myself, but even that isn’t entirely accurate.
