How would you describe your former male selves?

[Jen61]

Okay. More "->-bleeped-<-r than thou" here.

That's how you got 6 kids right? I mean unless you adopted them from Malawi.

Listen Jen61, I frankly don't care what you say or your perspective on yourself...But you have 6 children which means you once presented as their "father" and had a wife!!!! You were male at one time like the rest of us.... You aren't "->-bleeped-<-r than thou".

I used my sex organ for a purpose, not to make money. Even with a penis between my legs I was a female, I have never being confused about my gender or my sexuality. It is all on my head. I am what my brain says I am. 

I am not a ->-bleeped-<-, or TS, or TG, or anything. I am a human afflicted by a mutation in the promoter region of the aromatase gene. This mutation caused a center in my brain to remain in the female configuration and thus I am a female. 

BTW the new Health insurance that is now available to me through my employers does cover FSS and SRS; so it looks like 2012 is my year !!!

Imagine that 6 kids and a vag!

How would you describe your former male selves?

Irritable, lifeless, boring.

Basically, here's a reflection thread on our pasts. How do you think you've changed now that your transitioning? What stereotypical male things did you do?

My attitude by far has seen the greatest change since transitioning.  I have my ups and downs still, but generally I'm more happy and full of life.  As for stereotypical male things, the two that come to mind are MMA and drag racing/custom car building scene (though I still have an interest in both, but consider myself more of a "spectator" instead of being involved).

yet you presented as a male and had six kids? Sorry, if you  throw rocks at my lifestyle...I'll point out the glass houses in yours. You presented as a male once and had children, having 6 kids in itself means you were presenting as a successful male.

You seem very eager to prove yourself as a woman, as opposed to going with the flow. I don't care either way, it's your life....But don't act like you're better than me or anyone else here cuz we have different lifestyles or different perspectives on ourselves.
