You will never experience what it is to be the opposite sex beyond simply resembling one, and that is important to stress to those considering transition. I needed to hear this when I was being evaluated at the gender clinic, but I didn't. I think it would have helped me. 4/x
If you're struggling with gender dysphoria and are considering transition, ask yourself this: is passing as the opposite enough for you? If yes, great! I hope it works out If not, it's time to slow down and do some serious thinking before you make any irreversible changes. 5/5
I think this was always the thing for me. Can’t change one’s sex, and I knew that even as an adolescent.
I never literally believed I could change my sex, but I was convinced that passing and living as a man socially and legally would be enough. Turns out, I was wrong.
This is what's getting glossed over, now that trans folk are encouraged to refer to & think of themselves as BEING male or female sex after (or even w/o) transition. Changing birth certificates, etc. This will result in serious medical consequences along w the psychological ones.
Thank you for your perspective. It's important to be realistic.
Would love to hear your response to TWAW
Very touching and poignant thread, thank you.
I think this is very touching. I see so much frustration online from those who are facing difficulties, passports, relationships and much more. It makes me think the counselling is not addressing the trials ppl will face. Your thread is very important and I hope will help many
