Last night I attended my first Lambda meeting-called Eclectic Transgender Group. The group was divided between MTF and FTM. Everyone was very pleasant, great moderator. So interesting to see 'opposites' of our unique type--men-older than the FTMs there- seeking feminization, voice modulation, --breasts, etc--and the younger FTM who were talking about saving for a 'top job' which I interpret means removing their glorious bosom. God, isn't life so crazy? The FTM take testosterone for all its influences-start sprouting mini beards-more like fuzz--and the MTF want electrolysis, to negate totally the influence of the terrible T as I call it. In some ways it seems like a Dog -Cat convention. Really hard to relate to the wishes of these young women who are so miserable with their bodies. Bet they think the same thing in reverse!
Did get the name of a few counselors and have contacted one. I know it would benefit me to get my mind sorted out. Might even see if I can get references for a competent TG friendly MD. best to all.
