This might because I have more confidence in myself now and the act is now being done using the correct parts. I’m just surprised how much my needs have increase because before surgery I was meh to sex.

    I’m not understanding this at all. What kind of bottom surgery did you have? You said your needs have increased, and some act or other is being done using “the correct parts.” This is very vague - you say before surgery you were “men to sex.” What does that mean? Can you be more specific?

      i’m no girl, but i would guess “men” is a misspelling of “meh”, due to to proximity of the N and H keys on a QWERTY keyboard

        Yeah it looks like was an auto-correct error. I hate those auto-correct functions, they should be called “auto-incorrect.” I make myself proofread everything now, just in case that happens.

      Sorry my phone corrected meh to men. I am MTF and had bottom surgery about a month ago. I am still 2 months away from actually having being able to have sex. But I have noticed my sex drive has increase and I actually think about it now where as before surgery I really didn’t care for sex or think much of it.

        OH I hate auto-correct on phones! Anyway that makes more sense. I hope your surgery went well, it must have, since you are feeling an increased libido, I think that’s a good sign! What made you decide to transition? Just curious - as a gay male myself, I know for me that same-sex attraction is a blessing and a boost to my masculinity, so I’m always curious why people transition, for emotional reasons, or some other reason?

          This might be a odd awnser but idk why I started transitioning. I have always felt like a women even before I realized thing like gender and sexuality. Fun enough before starting hormones I was exclusively into women and then I started and became Bi. Now I’m marrying a man so what a rollercoaster. I will say I am just more comfortable with my self and other since transitioning.

      This is the TransFem community. Bottom surgery refers to surgery on the genitalia, most commonly vaginoplasty. “Having the correct parts”, in this context, means no longer having genitalia that cause you dysphoria. She is able to have sex without feeling self repulsed or ashamed, and therefore has become much more interested in sex and has a higher libido.

      Oh trust me I am at the point where the swelling has gone down and the sutures are all most gone and its amazing how normal it looks. In a year you wouldn’t even know. I will say pictures on line are usually of people early on and is a little miss leading of how everything will look in the end.

                  It is highly recommended you get hair removal. The surgeon you get with will have a recommendation for the exact location that needs hair removed from. That being said the Crane Center I went though will tell you if there is reasons you can’t they can still preform the surgery, you will just have more chance of infection and well hair inside.

      The biological formula was there all along. The parts of a vagina have direct analogs in the parts of a penis. The surgery itself is nothing short of a medical marvel. Having had it myself, there is an undeniable sense of wonder about the entire thing. It’s a surgery that has been talked about and wanted since at least the time of Elgabalus, who famously wanted to have it done. The fact that we can actually do it now and that it looks and functions so similarly, is absolutely amazing.

    Wow! Giwtwm. Have had less sex drive than my peers my whole life. Hoping transition will get me mentally to where you are now (horny) 😏

    Well I’m sorry you’re that small minded and unable to accept any inquiries or opinions that don’t completely align with your own. I hope you somehow gain the ability to celebrate acceptance of others and their opinions on your long journey in life.

        Sorry SamanthaLie, that comment above wasn’t meant for you - it was directed toward LadyAutumn who feels that my asking questions of members here is somehow an attempt to hurt or ridicule them, when nothing could be further from the truth. All I’m trying to do is learn more about trans people - why is that a crime, and why is that not something people are OK with. My view is, if you want support, you need to be open to letting people learn about who you are.

          This isn’t a space for you. This is a space for transfeminine people. Google exists, and there are plenty of other online forums for you to peruse for detailed explanations on what trans people are. This space is not that. End of story.
