    Making the Need/Desire Stop

    If there was a way, a pill, shot or treatment, that would allow your inner self to align with your birth gender, would you take it? You would no longer have the desire to dress as the opposite sex, no more gender confusion, no more conflicts with yourself or with unreceptive spouses, family or friends. You would be, for lack of a better term, "normal" within the eyes of society.

    Please, PLEASE, note that I am NOT implying this is an illness!

    Oh, I forgot to say: Why, or why not?

    I'm not a big fan of hypotheticals. So far as I know, the magic injection doesn't exist to solve the problems you've described. Very few of life's challenges can be solved so easily.

    However, you are in complete control over your attitude and reaction towards what you choose to define as problems.

    Since there's not a definition of normal I guess not. I just enjoy the act of dressing.

    It's too late for that "magic medicine trick" now, maybe once upon a time but not now as too much water has run under the bridge to turn back.

    No. I have no gender confusion nor inner conflicts. I have always been me.

    No, also.
    I cannot say that there has never been gender confusion but now there is none.
    The last thing in the world I want is to be like those normal people.
    And I don't want them to be like me or even understand me.

    When I was in high school I decided I was going to give up all this girl stuff (which I'd been doing since the age of 3) and learn to be like all the other boys. After some time I finally admitted to myself that I didn't like being like all the other boys. I didn't enjoy the same things, and the other boys didn't like the things I liked. I'm thoroughly female, and I like "female" things like cooking, sewing, baking, taking care of babies, and so forth. Any drug that made me "normal" would have to completely destroy my personality. Furthermore, I like being female. The female aspect of my personality is the part of me that I like the best.

    No, I wouldn't take the pill. I don't want to be male. My mind shudders at the thought.

    In a split second. Given my 50 year struggle with all of this, it would be disingenuous for me not to say I would. It would make life so much easier, that's for sure.

    However, that doesn't exist, so I have embraced who and what I am and am thrilled to be me.

    Jodie,
    Rather than ask a hypothetical question which has been asked many times before, perhaps you would like to tell us what " Normal " is ?

    Is there a normal person in society ? We all have quirks . Maybe we should look at it from another angle and suggest we are the lucky ones, once we truly come to terms with it . For me it's becoming more normal to be dressed, at what point will it feel abnormal to wear drab clothes ?

    Nope, would not take the pill or shot or whatever. Why ? I like me just the way I am and to old to change now. I love to dress and all things girly, but like being a guy and doing guy things to.

    This question has been around for ages. I would NOT take the pill or anything else to put an end to my desire to wear the clothing I like. Maybe the rest of society needs to take a pill so they'll learn to stop worrying about what WE are wearing !!!!!

    My apologies for bringing up a tired subject. Apparently, I didn't do enough searching.

    Sorry to waste everyone's time with this.

    Nope. I have finally accepted that this part of my life gets to be acknowledged and let out. Something that has been buried and hidden for most of my life. I have every intention to live it and see where the journey takes me. My wife knows, all of my children and their spouses know and every one of them has been great.

    The answer is no. After almost 50 years of inner fight with myself, with varying degrees of intensity over the years, and finally coming to terms that is this is the way I am, I would not give it up.

    And miss the opportunity to learn more about women. Would be a no for me. I am who I am and miss out on an amazing journey.
    If it was easy, everyone would be doing it.

    I've asked myself questions similar to this one LOTS of times throughout my life. If I could make the "disconnect" go away, it would make my life easier, there's no denying that. But I would be giving up a large part of myself, and I've learned to like who I am. So - not wanting to be the typical "guy", I'd have to decline the offer. I guess I'd just have to continue to find my own way though this crazy mixed up world I call my life.

    Now if they had a magic pill that would fix my BODY...

    An added thought...
    There have been enough attempts made already to cure people who don't fit in... drugs, shock treatment, religious brainwashing, etc. The result? Seriously screwed up people. No thanks.
