Most of us really enjoy being our femme selves to the point of saying it's not a "self" it's the real "us", this is who I really am and we enjoy the feeling of looking and being pretty as if it's to be preferred as to who we are as a guy. How many times have we caught ourselves saying something like:"I can't wait until this is over so I can get dressed?" Fair enough and I've been there myself and can appreciate the feeling and sometimes, in fact, we want to make the go for 24/7, which I did for awhile. I did soon get tired of it however.
Suppose, though, if you had the option of doing it and could see your way clear to do it all of the time,possibly with feminine enhancements, would you do it? You may be saying:"What are you,nuts? Of course, in a heartbeat." Think before you answer. The reason I say this is that even when it may be considered easy and preferred (by us), it's a lot of work, not only to maintain the appearance but the image as well. Just ask any genetic woman. We feel it is so easy and so much to be preferred over who we are but is it? What would we do if returning to the haven of guyhood was no longer an option and we had no choice but to carry on en femme all of the time?
Quite honestly, for the most part,our idea of what it is all about is miles away from the reality. You may say but I know what it's like because of the reaction of others when I'm dressed, out and about, I feel, I do, I enjoy. No thin so Baba Louie, what we see is just the tip of the iceberg. To really be perceived as a woman we have to be willing to be on the receiving end of how others would react to us and most of the treatment, despite the political correctness of the world is anything but, not to mention the constant pressure to be this or that. Talk about an uphill battle. I really have to hand it to the gals who hold their own in this world.
There is also the pressure of constantly needing or wanting to look nice either by design or implication. Even though many gals look great naturally, there is the "grand beauty illusion" out there that the "perfect woman" should look like this or that. And we thought we had it rough? We fuss and obsess but it's mostly on a part time basis.
My point is if we really want to go through all of that just to look like a woman and "be" a woman all of the time, don't you think there may be just a little bit more to the feelings behind that? If we are going to go to that much effort, personally I would try to determine if indeed I wanted to pursue SRS. The only real way to determine that is with therapy and a RLT. Just the point of living 24/7 does not answer the question for me and if there is a point and purpose behind the desire, I would want to know what it is once and for all. That is my thinking on it anyway. Personally, I could catch any ball thrown my way and have more or less proven I could do it. Having the endurance to do it all of the time is a different "ball game" all together though. Are we really ready to play it? Only we can answer that
