I wasn’t a confused cis. I was a hyper-well informed all the way often suicidal over my man in a womanly body predicament. I finally got so well informed that I was like “I deserve a longer, more comfortable, less ensconced in a weird bubble life.”

But see it does matter that I value a long, healthy, physically comfortable and I can hang out with almost anybody kind of life. It turned out I wanted this kind of life more than the not-really-much-like-the-lives of the men I saw myself in that surgeons and T could give me.

I had been around lots of men, and super envious of them, for my whole life. My life as a trans man would not have been much like the life I had wanted all those years. I don’t know why this super obvious distinction is hard for people to grok.

If you want the life of a trans man, go get that life. The reality of that life is WAY distinct from the life of a man. So get good and comfy with that reality before you spend your money and let a doctor knock you out.
