(To the GGs ... what do you think your husbands/boyfriends would choose, or any other thoughts you may have.)
So ... how many of you would choose to start taking hormones, get breast enhancement surgery if the hormones didn't produce large enough breasts, get facial feminization surgery, change your name legally to that of a woman's and all your other gender markers, and start living as a woman full time. In this scenario, SRS is optional, but remember that taking hormones produces the same effect eventually, which is acomplete loss of sexual functioningpartial to complete loss of male sexual functioning.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TWO PARAGRAPHS BELOW, THERE ARE CONDITIONS:
1. There is NO going back and forth, this would be a permanent change to living as a feminized version of who you are now. Please, no "I'd take the boobs but forego changing my name and I'd only take as many hormones to make my skin softer and not lose sexual functioning". It doesn't work that way.
2. Keep in mind, this is not a magical "how do you imagine your lives living as a woman" question, with a mind's eye image of a young, beautiful woman. The premise is that you still retain your age, your hair pattern growth, your basic body structure which would not change with all the surgeries (height, shoulder width, feet and hand size, facial width, neck size, ear size, etc). You would also keep your current work situations, your current families, you would still live in the same neighborhoods. And you would not be stealth afterwards, most people would not immediately take it you were a genetic female ... it would be apparent (as is the norm) that you were a former man who transitioned (like Bruce Jenner).
So, this is pretty much a yes or no question. Given the above, how many crosssdressers in this forum would go for it?
Thanks!
Edit Note 5/2/15I've edited my first paragraph above (see strikethrough), to be more precise. Complete loss is not in the cards for everyone.See this thread: http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/...-functionality
