Would you take a MAGIC PILL?

[Anne2345]

Depending upon circumstances, it is not always easy to change the course of one's life. Decisions must be made, and road blocks and hurdles overcome and disposed of. The dream, of course, is to courageously and with dignity walk the path of life leading to the greatest amount of personal growth, enlightenment, and reward, with one's head held high.

The challenge, though, is to balance the responsibilities of life with one's essential needs, ambition, and desires. In this regard, everyone faces limitations and restrictions. As such, these impediments can have a very real impact on the decisions and choices we may make, and are able to make. By its very nature, as grand as life may be, we all suffer from some limitation or another. This is just a simple fact of life.

But let's say, just for the fun of it, that a magic pill exists, and is made available to you. This pill has the ability to change you in any manner you choose. Currently, you are a man, and are transgendered. In this, you are a crossdresser, a transsexual, or whatever you may consider yourself. This magic pill, however, can change you into the girl of your dreams, give you the body of your dreams, provide you with breasts and/or a vagina, if that is your desire, or make you more masculine and/or remove any transgendered proclivities you currently possess.

Being magic, the pill may also be taken without consequence to, for example, one's social, job, or religious status. There is no promise, however, that your S.O., if you have one, will remain happy with you, depending upon what you choose. Regardless, the results of the magic pill are based exclusively upon the desire of the user, and are permanent.

So what do you do? Do you take the magic pill? And if so, what changes would you have it make of you, your body, or your essence? Do you change your gender? Do you keep it the same? Do you enhance the female within? Do you remove the female within? Do you make minor or major body enhancements? It's your choice, your decision . . . .

[Lorenqt]

I'd love to be able to take a magic pill that would enhance the female trapped inside me.

[johanna.kitten]

Nope, I'd just burglar the factory where they mak'em pills and help myself to them all. ;) - Yes, I'd take it and never look back.

If I could take a magic pill--I believe I'd take one that would no longer allow me to believe in magic. I think I've believed in magic all my life--that I could go on my way, blindly, unthinkingly, and that things would sort themselves out on their own. Whether in regards to my CDing or any other aspect of my life, I've always let them go their own way without asking myself if there was something I needed to do to put things right. What you have no control over must see to itself. But what is in my power, that's what I need to look at and consider. I think I've always blamed the world for its lack of magic--but I was always looking for the wrong sort of magic. There is magic, but it's the sort you have to make yourself. Some people have learned that, they have lots of it within them, and they seem to have found some sort of peace in their hearts. Maybe that's what I should have been looking for. You're never too old to learn.

Best wishes, Annabelle

[suzy1]

Apart from a magic pill to make me 20 years old again I like me just as I am thank you. You can't improve perfection.

SUZY

[Marleena]

Anne strikes again with another thought provoking post! Bravo Anne!:)

I would not take the pill. I hope I have found the middle ground that will keep my wife and family happy. It means some sacrifices for me that I think I can deal with to not upset the apple cart of life..

[DonnaT]

A magic pill, like the magic shot they used on mutants in X-Men?

Yes, I'd take the pill to remove my CDing desires, as long as it changed nothing else about me, just to make my wife happy.

[GingerLeigh]

I'm already 100% male in body, just change the 20% female in my mind and I'm good to go, so "Cure" me. I've invested too much time and effort to become the man I am to throw it away to become someone else. Ask me in the next life when I'm younger and have nothing to lose...

Ginger

[Kate Simmons]

This so-called "magic pill" does not exist as of yet but it will. The bottom line is that there is an investment that has to be made to obtain it. The investment is not money but changing one's basic self. It's doubtful that very many would go the full nine yards to obtain it, however.:)

[Alice B]

If the pill effects only lasted a week or two. Hell yes. Any longer and no thank you.

[kimdl93]

I've already taken it, and have exactly what I want. There are a few unpleasant side effects, but nothing I can't handle.

[whowhatwhen]

Edit: Nevermind.
Twenty characters.

[Rianna Humble]

The basic difference between your magic pill and the ones I'm already taking is that your magic pill would allow me to bear children, so yes I'd take it if it were available but as it's not, I'll just have to resign myself to never having children

[Silentpartner GG SO]

good thread - interesting to see the different responses.

[LeaP]

Oh, I'm tempted to take the pill, but absolutely won't. As difficult as the current situation is, I still choose to be myself and deal. But do ask again in a week, or three, and again in a couple of months ..., because my commitment is based more on stubborness and bravado than integrity right now.

Taken differently, the magic pill is nothing more than a proxy for the decision itself. From that standpoint, I'm not ready to take the pill. In my case it's because I'm still sorting out what I am, so considering options is a little early. And, unfortunately, the efficacy of magic medication being what it is, there are side effects, one of which is identity leakage. So I don't the conflicts REALLY go away even after you take the pill. Sort of like Prozac fixing depression by provoking suicide.

Are you ready? Is it time? I don't see your answer, Anne.

[Kelli Ca]

I would love a pill that could make me into a woman, as long as I could change back. I don't desire to be female full time and my wife wouldn't want that either, but to be able to change and go out as a true woman wow that would be something

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Anne , No pill needed I'm happy just the way I am.

[Brittany CD]

Nope, no pill. I enjoy manhood and have never wanted to live as a woman for a second in my life

[busker]

I would love a pill that could make me into a woman, as long as I could change back. I don't desire to be female full time and my wife wouldn't want that either, but to be able to change and go out as a true woman wow that would be something
That could be the ultimate can of worms. You go out as the "true woman", meet the man of your dreams and OMG. then your wife would really be PI$$ED, because then you wouldn't want to revert back to man. The is no potion--or thought and action--that leaves the future untouched. If you stray from the true path, the future is changed at that moment.

Anne, i asked a similar question when I first joined over in the TS forum, and my tail feathers are still smoldering.

[Barbara Ella]

No pill for me, thank you. Still sorting out who, what, when, where to make that permanent of a change.

Babes

[Dawn cd]

If they had offered the pill to me 50 years ago, I probably would have taken it. Now, no. And, looking back, it strikes me that—had I been a woman—I never would have had the career I had, considering the glass ceilings in those days. So for everything there is a price.

[Miranda-E]

the magic pill would have been faster and cheaper.

[paula123]

I would take the pill and switch to full time female and i would be so sexey looking and have all hot dresses to go with it

[Eryn]

Nope, too risky. Even if I did the logical thing and had it make me happy being just a guy I don't know if the excision of my feminine interests would alter my personality in such a way that would damage my relationship with my wife.

[Kirsty_D]

When I was 12 I used to dream that such a pill would become available in the near future. 30 plus years later I've given up waiting and decided it's time to do it the hard way.

[docrobbysherry]

Why would I take a magic pill? When in real life I have THIS! Which does the SAME THING only I can take it off whenever I wish! :devil:

175244

[Torrey]

I would take it in a heartbeat. No worries, no questions. YES!

[Inna]

Well, wouldn't you know, I met the genie and not only one there were three of them, the first one had me talk and talk about the wishes I wished for and listened to my stories of mesmerizing adventure and a new life I dreamed off. Then after a while, the first wish was granted and I even received the magic paper. So by now two other wishes remained and I went to see yet another genie to ask for remainder of my wishes. I sat down and explained that the first genie granted me this wish and here is the paper to prove it, genie 2 looked at the paper and listened to my second wish and granted me such as well. Oh my, within this wish I had been given three pills which made me feel and smell like I always wanted, and my life was almost complete. But there was something missing, every time I asked the magic mirror "who was the most feminine of them all" mirror used to fog up and tell me to come back maybe later. Well, I called on the third genie for my final wish and explained how I like the mirror to tell me that I am in fact the most feminine of them all. Genie let me smell the magic potion and I went to sleep, when I woke up my wish was granted and as soon as I had found the magic mirror and asked, mirror in fact said "you are, You are"

And so the magic did happen and magic pills and genies do really exist, really! I mean.......REALLY!

[CourtneyKay]

I have fantasized about this situation so many times. Yes I would take it and never look back. The world would be much brighter with a vagina

[MandySarahR]

Using special super hero powers, I would like to go back and forth between my two sexes with a simply bop of the head. Sometimes I like being the God-given me and then there are many times, sometimes long periods of time, I would like to be a full figured, long-legged, long haired Mandy. Then maybe after a while I would just finally stay one way or the other.

[taís]

14 minutes looking to the thread and no sign of an answer. I think the pill would have a long stay in a drawer waiting for me to make up my mind.

then I imagined a slightly modified scenario: waking up in a bathtub full of ice (http://www.snopes.com/horrors/robbery/kidney.asp) and finding a note that says that I have been forcedly fed the magic pill, and the changes will take place when I say the words "I wanna be a man/woman". (and a footnote saying that my kidneys are fine, sheesh)

in this kind of situation, I'd had to make my mind.
and it's scary to think that I'd say "I wanna be a woman".

(but I'm single. if I had a relationship with true love (and I had been in one), I know I'd say the opposite. and this idea is even scarier. (because I'd make a choice based on another person.))


however, as far as fantasy goes, I'd choose the Fountain of Youth over the magic pill at any time.


*total answering time: 42 minutes. this question really messed me up :x

PS: can I have a Magic Answer Pill before the Magic Gender Pill?

[Julie Hall]

I would take it in a heartbeat. No worries, no questions. YES!

I'm with Torrey. I would also take it in a heartbeat - without ever considering the potential consequences. Heck I'd be swallowing before the explanation was complete.

Julie

[Sammy777]

So what do you do? Do you take the magic pill?

Yes I would.
In fact I already do, except that you have to keep taking the pill everyday, for some twice a day, to get the desired effects which sadly enough do not come overnight, but do eventually come with time :)

[Pythos]

The only "magic" pill I would take would be a red pill being held in a hand beside another hand holding a blue pill. (QUICK name that film)

[candicd]

This s an awesome question and I was kind of thinking about tonight on my way home. Here is the long story:
My dad wrecked two mustangs in the late 60s early 70s. He refused to let my sister buy a mustang. I bought one a couple months ago. I was thinking on the way home that if I wrecked and my "male parts" were broken, would I want to be reconstructed as a female.
Then I thought about my wife and what she would want. She likes Candi but also likes the male me.
SSSOOO if I could change back and forth, sure bring on he pill. If it's permanent, no thank you. I will stay a smple crossdresser. God doesn't make mistakes and I am happy with who I am.

-Candi

You made me laugh out loud on that one.

[KellyJameson]

My soul, my essence, my spirit is female this I have no doubt and I know this simply because I have been taught this from countless interactions with others as well as childhood memories where I thought on a subconscious level I was a girl and than later wished to be able to change when I realized I was not. Comments about how I move, how I think and feel, my abilities or lack of them, ect... all traits, behaviors and qualities usually found in women and when shared by men not to the degree that I have them. I understand men, prefer their company over women but rarely have anything in common with them on a emotional level because most men have a pureness about them and when I'm around them I can feel their maleness which is in part the absence of a femaleness in them and this is true for most women who have an absence of maleness in them making the male and female complementary and when joined creating a psychological whole. The female/male energies in each person looks for it's complement, (Opposite). Relationships fail when these energies are not in balance.

A magic pill would change me so I fit into relationships and society better because body and soul would be in harmony to met the needs of others but I would loose something very valuable in the process because I now hold the pureness of both male and female energies in one body so I am able to step out of what usually is a subjective experience ( being male or female) and be objective, (my female understands my male and my male understands my female), this has been instrumental in obtaining inner peace because of the emotional autonomy it allows. I do not have the need to search for someone too feel complete on a subconscious level because both halfs are already within me. I think this is where sensitivity comes from, it is a testament that the person holds both energies so is not a pure expression of one or the other, you see it clearly here on this forum.

For me the magic pill is symbolic and if I take it I would become like everybody else,a pure expression of one or the other, male or female but my mind is free because it is whole and united by not being one or the other.

[Cait]

I would take it in the blink of an eye in all honesty.

[chrissy hunt]

I love the question/questions but by being a cd means I want a bit of both so a permanant change pill wouldn't appeal to me as I like being male and female.
If I had a pill/switch that could transform my body from male to female and then back to male again then we'd be talking!

[linda allen]

This magic pill seems to let us choose the effects, unlike my post a while back about the genie giving just two choices.

I would take the pill, but it's going to take me a while to decide what results I want.

[Laura'sCloud]

I would take it, no questions asked and give myself a feminine appearance to match my trueself.

[Kaitlyn Michele]

I would take a magic pill..and not the pythos "Matrix" pill!!

but mine would make me 28 years old, and i have just sold my internet company for $1.3 billion and i can jet around the world pretending i know everything and give money to my causes, buy off politicians and feel better and smarter than everyone else...
kind of like a younger and prettier bill gates..

[Julia_in_Pa]

But there isn't a " pill " like the one you described. There is, however, hard work, self discovery, sacrifice, loss, medical intervention concerning surgeries and HRT and lastly if your lucky there is peace.

This is the difference between you and TS/IS people.

For those that walked the walk there is quite a bt of what you described at the end but not until you bleed for it.


Julia

[TGMarla]

Yeah, I guess I would take it. Being a magic pill that can give me the body of my dreams, then I guess it can also revert me to my mid-twenties, when I was not yet married. Oh....it doesn't change time? Well, I will not take it if it hurts my wife. But if not for spousal, familial, and friend(ial?) consequences, then it's down the hatch with it!

Gulp!

[Jacqueline Winona]

I don't think so. Tempting as it may be to take it for either reason, I'm pretty happy with the way I am now. It may seem strange to have so distinct a feminine side for some people (obviously not here), but I wouldn't want to lose it. And I really do enjoy being a guy most of the time. Would I take it if it could help me manage the two sides a little better and give me more Janice time or more clearly defined times when I could express Her? Maybe. Not sure if that makes sense. :)

[Giselle(Oshawa)]

i would take a magic pill to take away my urge and compulsion to crossdress in a heartbeat,alas
no such pill exists, i have always found myself in between and would like to be one or the other
and considering i am married to a great lady and have two wonderful son's i'd like to be all man

[Stacey Summer]

To achieve the body I desire? The one I feel I should've been born in, without any social or professional ramifications? Yes I would, without hesitation. I've said before that the only reason I refuse to consider HRT and SRS is because I would look like a man who changed his outward sex.

[Tracy]

Take the pill? Of course, then my physical being would match my mental being.

[Cheryl T]

That would take a lot of thought. There are other consequences besides just what my wife would think/feel.
If anyone is interested there is a movie that has something of this sort as the constant theme...it's called "The Lathe of Heaven". It's from about the late 60's so you may have to hunt for it...but it is certainly thought provoking along these lines.

[Frédérique]

So what do you do? Do you take the magic pill? And if so, what changes would you have it make of you, your body, or your essence? Do you change your gender? Do you keep it the same? Do you enhance the female within? Do you remove the female within? Do you make minor or major body enhancements? It's your choice, your decision . . .

Not to be a complete wet blanket, but I wouldn’t take the pill – I’d be concerned about any and all side effects, conscious of other such “adventures” I have attempted, only to long for a return to how things were before I made my big mistake…

That being said, if I DID take this hypothetical magic pill, I would not wish to change my gender. The bloom is off the rose, in my case, in regards to wanting to “be” a female. Its way more fun to be deviant in the extreme, be a boy, and appropriate female clothing for the purposes of expression. I would certainly enjoy being a child again, but if I wished for that it would mean replaying all of my painful childhood experiences, not to mention twelve years of school, and nobody would take me seriously and/or listen to me. How could I exhibit adult sensibilities in a child’s form and not be seen as some sort of queer anomaly?

The thing is, there IS a magic pill, and it’s called IMAGINATION. You don’t ingest it, since you already possess it. You can be anything you want to be (surely we’ve all heard that before) – just be prepared for the consequences when you actually try to do it! Since conformity is a “value” that people believe in, you’re up against it when you embrace your inherent imaginative powers…
:straightface:

[Melissa_59]

I wouldn't hesitate, I would take the pill.

[elizabethamy]

In my darkest moments, I have wished for a magic pill that would end my life without pain and suffering. Fortunately there is no such pill that I know of, so when those moments pass, and I'm okay, I would love to have your pill, Anne. I think I would say to my family and friends that I know that I am and always have been at least part female, and after having lived 56 years as a male, I'm entitled to go the other direction for the years that remain...if there were such a pill. Of course, instead of a pill, there is a multi-year process that in its slow unfolding is both much much harder to accomplish, and therefore much harder on everyone who has to watch, support and readjust their relationships with you. So yes, send me a pill.

elizabethamy

[Contessa]

Okay I am going to be the one to take the pill. Although I have maybe a few questions. Can I pick the kind of woman I want to be, like can I be a bit taller than I am now and then there are other changes I will mention later. But my biggest question is "Will this hurt?" when it comes about I mean. I am thinking about you know the incredible Hulk when he is changing and his body is contorting and stretching and this guy is in agony. I'm pretty sure it hurt. Hey I am just having fun, but that is my take on the pill. And this pill does it cost the same as SRS or is it more expensive? Is there a trial size?

Tess

[Marissa333]

I did take the pill, but instead of turning me into a woman, I grew a giant bean stalk out of my mouth! I should try to get my cow back...

[Peta_T]

Where is a glass of water. Motherhood here I come!!!!

[linda allen]

Giselle, If you want to stop dressing, you can do it. Just like smoking or drinking alcohol.

You just have to decide that you want to stop, then don't dress any more. Your mind can control what your body does.

[LeaP]

The wisdom and experience of the community suggests otherwise.

Lea

[Daphne Renee]

that would be tough. I think I would take the magic pill but only to enhance the woman within. I cant say with 100% certainty but I dont think I would completely change my gender though.

[Amanda22]

If I didn't have the relationship with my wife that is truly a dream come true, I would take it. The importance and satisfaction of our relationship is light-years ahead of the possibility of my transitioning via a magic pill, HRT, surgery, or other means. Great question, Anne!

[whowhatwhen]

Giselle, If you want to stop dressing, you can do it. Just like smoking or drinking alcohol.

You just have to decide that you want to stop, then don't dress any more. Your mind can control what your body does.

That's just repression though, you can quit smoking and drinking but your feminine self is a part of you and always will be.

[Leeiah]

This magic pill sorta seems dangerous, turns you into whatever you desire? What if one changes her or himself into a famous actor, or the president of the united states or something like that then what? Chaos havoc and mayhem is all that comes out of this lol.

[Foxglove]

That's just repression though, you can quit smoking and drinking but your feminine self is a part of you and always will be.

I think you're right, whowhatwhen. That's the problem I have: it is my mind telling my body what to do. Maybe I need a new mind.


This magic pill sorta seems dangerous, turns you into whatever you desire? What if one changes her or himself into a famous actor, or the president of the united states or something like that then what? Chaos havoc and mayhem is all that comes out of this lol.

Now this is what I call thinking outside the box. Suppose I wanted to be a real devil--female, of course?

[~Joanne~]

I would take the pill....and flush it down the toilet lol Permanent is just that and I am happy with both sides of me. I wouldn't want to lose one side just to expand the other. Now if this pill was temporary, say a day or two, I'd buy it by the case load ;)

[Jessica86]

I wouldn't take it. I can't be greedy. I love my wife and kids too much! If I was single, with no kids...I would take it in a heartbeat. It would be hard for my wife to come home "Honey! I'm home...what did you do today?" "Umm...take a look!" AND yes, this is exactly what I want to look like. Oh, what I would give....:daydreaming:

[Marleena]

Anne is making us think again!

I like Jessica's answer. Sheesh that girl has a built in TV tray.:)
