I don't see any Blanchard theories there either...
G3 pretty much nails it for me. I still don't have any male friends to this day, just acquaintances. I still feel like I'm hiding because I've only gone the hormone route for the GD so far. I'm trying to take the easy way out and I'm just emotionally drained.
I should have known I was TS in my twenties when I tried to self medicate. The GD had peaked but there wasn't help available here like there is today. Losing my job through a work injury caused me to slow down and the GD peaked again.
