I am a Transexual and Trasngender person because......

Me and my friend Changehappens, were having an extensive impulsion on the subject of intention, amongst the open and diversified community of Transgender and Transexual modernized individuals.

We came to a question that we could only see who is right, by inquiring about the various intentions of our beautiful communities.

Name your number one reason why you are a transsexual or transgenders individual.

I would like to hear from the board before I deposit my answer.

Peace

Oh, BTW, this is ChangeHappens Friend, Sunlace.

If I like this forum I might stay, I might. I usually hang out at new age forums. They're quite the stir, in everyday creative personalities.

Easy going

Hard to leave.

Get back to me....

yeah so since no body answered...I guesse I'll go first.

The main reason I am a transgendered individual is because I was born that way. We are born into roles in this society, I just so happen to be born with the wrong body for the right roles....go figure..

 

Well I'm a transsexual because I've always felt like female yet my body doesn't seem to agree. When I was like 4-5, something always just felt off and wrong, by the time I was 8-9, something made me want to be a girl yet of course being that age I could not understand it, and so on.

 

Because I'm not cis-gendered. More complexy because I never felt fully male and never felt fully female either.

 

Ima st8 transvestite cause it pays good money as a entertainer.. Some women seem to like enjoy a guy that can be a passable women .. Some think its very erotic..
Though I dont put all the work and maintenance I did into it when I was in my 20's, still part of my life (course I couldnt just quit since I have 100's of outfits and 20 pairs of shoes.., but Im not very active in it. other than a few times a year, once in the spring and for halloween..
I do know alot of people in the transgendered community and was part of a large drag group.
Passed on chance to be on Maury but do know someone that was on maury and isnt nearly as passable as myself..

 

I'm a trans person because, although I was born a male (?) my body did not produce any hormones. When I began treatment with testosterone, almost immediately I new it was the wrong way to go. But the damage was already done. Changing the treatment to estrogen means being trans sexual. And so I will continue ......

 

That sounds like an intersex condition to me...

My genetic makeup is mostly female, but due to a hormonal defect which made my body overproduce androgens, I was born with masculinised genitalia. (though not fully male) Due to this, I was wrongly brought up as ''male'', which I never identified with, and always seen myself as female from my earliest childhood memories. Even without the knowledge of my intersex condition, I never identified as trans, I saw my identity as purely female, and that ''trans'' was just a label for the benefit of others. By the time puberty was over, the damage to my body had all been done, and Ive been engaged ever since in a long battle to get my body at least somewhat resembling what it always should have been.

I do relate to a lot of trans people's experiences, and the fact I was considered that (at least medically) for a long time, means I feel a certain affinity with some people who are categrorised as that. My experiences are similar, I just dont like the label, at least not for myself. As even without the knowledge of my medical history, I just seen myself as female. The 'transitioning' is only seen from the perspective of the people who saw me as 'male'. There's no transitioning on my part, as a person, Ive always been the same on the inside.

 

I dont like labels like invisible soul said. Since i was achild i played with girls, i hated and hate also now the boy's games. I felt different in the brain in my emotions in the way to face with people. I'm not so aggressive, i love to talk about emotions sensations. This is the emotional part, then there is the body part. My body doesnt express my inner "soul" since i was a baby, but at that time i didnt understand I star understand when i was 16 yo.
I have a mother that is an emotional "analphabet" and my father wasnt near me during puberty and adolecence, he hated my femminine side and expressions in my body and punished me, so i must swallow my femminility but now i have trouble to put it out because i feel fear to have seen like a breech loader

 

I am transgendered because I am both male & female. I have learnt to accept both aspects of myself & I accept both aspects of myself! ^_^ We are all beautiful humans - no matter what we look like - inside & out.

 

And I'm not sure what to call myself now. I guess I am whatever people see me as, which under normal circumstances, is a female. However, once in a while I will be out in androgynous appearance to keep peace in the family. Not my preference but there are other things in life that I'm not ready to let go of. One of those things is my marriage.
