I am Toni Lippi posted:I know this is an old post but just to let you know. When I went to the doctor to get checked they thought I was being foolish for suggesting my testosterone was low. I told them to order up a blood panel anyway, and the nurse practitioner was like "yeah ok if you say so." Three days later I get a call from the doctor saying, "You need to come in right now." The reason was because my levels were so low he thought, "Either your brains is full of tumors, your testicles are full of tumors, or you had mumps when you were a kid and it destroyed your ability to make testosterone. How do you feel?" What I'm saying is if you feel tired no matter how much rest you get and you're never down to gently caress, get a physical and blood work, because it doesn't hurt to know what your body is doing. Sorry for the derail. lol so which was it

Milky Moor posted:no, no, i don't mean that. sure, they can be harder to identify visually, but all over the net it seems like there's more lonely young men who are opting to change their gender then there are young women. maybe it's confirmation bias but, i don't know, it just seems odd. seriouspost: there is something very "off" about the trans phenomenon. too bad a proper dialogue or critical investigation cannot be done about it without the conductors being labelled as transphobic because quack psychiatrists happily recommend drug and hormone cocktails and chopping your dick off.

Milky Moor posted:op, not to sound like an rear end in a top hat, but why does it seem like most trans individuals are male to female? shouldn't the divide be somewhat more even between mtf and ftm? i can't help but think it's somewhat like bronies - that is, a reaction by young men who aren't conventionally masculine and don't really know how to deal with it beyond embracing a strange view of feminity The trans community focuses more on MtF because they have a harder time being accepted. FtM gracefully become men; MtF jump into things a lot quicker. Also, its MUCH EASIER to go from female to male when it comes to hormone treatments. Testosterone is a hell of a thing and makes lasting changes. Whereas, estrogen and progesterones effects are less severe. MtF have it easier when it comes to surgery though.

Also, straight men are a lot more particular about the provenance of their lover's junk. Women tend be more 'meh' about it.

Sorry for the derail. Pituitary tumors/scarring can happen anytime. This is a very important reply actually.

I totally wish I had answers for your questions. Maybe someone else has the answers? As for the bows and lace bullshit. Thats dumb. Skirts suck, lace sucks, bows are dumb, makeup is annoying. I cant stand transchicks that "overdo it". Most of them dont pass as it is. And, why draw more attention to yourself?

Scenario: Effects of catastrophic climate change begin to appear earlier than predicted and the model of international interdependence collapses under the strain. The populace goes into panic mode as problems get more severe and solutions seem less realistic. How important is having a vagina that can't keep itself clean?
