Creative wishing ....

[insideontheoutside]

Being a very creative kid (who grew up into a creative adult) I always came up with interesting scenarios to magically "fix" my body. Here's some of the ones I can remember. Anyone else come up with some really creative "wishes"?

1. I once wished that space aliens would come and abduct me, see what was wrong, and then magically wave their highly technologically advanced wand over me and I'd have the perfect male body. I spent a fair amount of time thinking about how I would explain it to people I knew if it actually ever happened.

2. I once wished that I would find the genie in a lamp and the first wish of course would be the perfect male body. The second would be for it to have been that way since birth (therefore changing all my paperwork for me and fixing that pesky issue on how I would explain it to people who knew me) and the third wish would be, of course, for 3 more wishes.

3. I once spent nearly a whole summer researching old folk tales and ancient stories where individuals changed their gender. One of the stories I came across was an old folk tale that if a girl were able to kiss her elbow, she'd turn into a boy. Let's just say I also spent a great deal of the summer wishing that was true and trying to do it (I should add that I was about 7).

4. I certainly partook in "prayer", wishing that any god that was out there would magically fix things for me and I'd wake up in the perfect male body.

5. I did a fair amount of wishing there was some sort of magic spell that would fix things for me.

6. I wished that science would save me after seeing the Twilight Zone episode where the old people turn in their bodies for shiny, young android bodies. I'd take an android body as long as it had a functioning dick.

7. I wished I had a time machine to go back and figure out some way to change the circumstances of my birth. This was one I hadn't thought all the way through though because I just couldn't sort out how I'd properly change my gender with a time machine.

8. One of the saddest ones was I wished I would die and be reborn to the same family and basically live the same life only in the perfect male body.

9. This last one isn't so much creative as it is realistic ... I just wish I could be ok with what I've got.

When I was in first grade, I was laying in bed concentrating really hard on turning into a boy. I had just learned about meditation from my grandfather, and I firmly believed if I thought, and wished and envisioned myself turning into a boy, when I woke up it would have worked the next morning. I did this like every night for around 3 weeks, then it just sort of fizzled out.

A little after this, when I was like 8, my Dad let me watch the Butterfly Effect while he was working in the yard (lol@fail parental judgement). After seeing it, I wrote down "I remember when I was born" so I could go back and change into a boy. I think I thought that gender was decided when the baby came out or something.

Those are the two I remember best. Not really wishes, but whatever. xD

The closest I ever came was thinking about buying a rotary blade and doing some at-home surgery. I've never been a wishful/hopeful person, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Just kiss your elbow. Then everything will be alright. I heard that story too.

I was raised on religion, and after being told that angels had no gender, I tried to kill myself at the age of five. I didn't want to die, I just wanted to go meet the angels. I thought they would understand, and I thought they would fix things. At that age, I thought maybe even I was born the wrong species, just a simple mistake. I didn't know, but I trusted the grownups to make it all okay.

Oh my god they didn't do that at all.

As I got older, I assumed that science had an answer, and that if I ever simply went to a doctor (we didn't really go to doctors when I was growing up), the doctor would immediately see the problem, and tell me what to do. I thought it was so obvious, so transparent, that any physician would both see me as I was and have a magical cure.

Not being a boy when you're supposed to be can lead to some pretty desperate childhood fantasies.

hmm lets see,

1, I wish about that god would see he made a mistake and turn me into a boy

2, I wish that a fairy/angel would apear and I could get one wich to come true

3, I wish that there would be somekind of videogames where people would go into another world and recreative there own body,
kinda like a sims game, first you make your character as you want it to be, and then you play.

4, I wish (as someone said) that I could be reborn as a guy

5, I wish that someone would tell me I where actually born intersex or something like that, (since I got to talk to an old man who where born that way and because of that got the question what he rather be and then he choiced to be a guy.)

7, wish I could find some homones/drugs anything, so my body wouldnt go into puberty..

8, wish I would be adopted by a new famely from far away who would raise me as a boy.

some of them are from my childhood and some from my teenege age, I use to be very lonely person who slept more than being awake,

I guess the most common wish I had is
"I wish my dream where my realety and my realety was my dream"

I didn't know of the existence of transsexuals for a very long time, and when I did find out, all I knew of were the drag-queen stereotypes and that only MtFs existed. So, my wishes were mainly in ways that I could avoid the more torturous aspects of being a girl (growing up in makeup, and dresses, shaving and showing off every curve of my body, and then marrying and having dozens of children).

1. I remember deciding that I should be a nun, but then I realized that you actually had to be a Christian.

2. I know at some point, I decided I was going to be a hermaphrodite, but then I learned that it didn't work that way.

3. Then I determined that I was going to get really rich and have controversial, expensive body modifications so that I wouldn't be human anymore.

4. Then, I decided that it would be easier to just be a hermit in a forest and pretend to be a wolf (I had a very elaborate plan for how I was going to do this).

5. Eventually, I figured that I was just going to spend my entire adult life in a mental hospital too drugged on tranquilizers to think about anything any more.

6. For the longest time (most of my life, now that I think about it), I really wanted to get breast cancer so that I could just say, "Oh, it's okay, just remove everything; we don't want to take any chances..." and then have a male's chest.

dude i used to do the same exact thing. my newest thing is ive been watching dollhouse and the machine can download one persons memory and personality into another body.

I get time machine type dreams. Ones where I go back to my younger self many years ago but know what I know now (see: hot tub time machine). I then change my future by
1. coming out when I'm 10
2. transitioning at a young age
3. sort of skipping elementary school and high school
4. investing in the stock market which leads to my family living a bit better than we are now.
5. attempt to prevent massive disasters

Well, that's what I've got so far. I wonder what that time line would be like.

[JohnAlex]

Oh I totally did that too. 
I used to pray to god to make me have been born a boy.  and when that didn't work, I concluded god didn't exist, lol.
Then I started praying to the devil to make me have been born a boy.

2. I once wished that I would find the genie in a lamp and the first wish of course would be the perfect male body. The second would be for it to have been that way since birth (therefore changing all my paperwork for me and fixing that pesky issue on how I would explain it to people who knew me) and the third wish would be, of course, for 3 more wishes.

This one. This was my biggest fantasy as a child.

[King Malachite]

I would used to think that if I killed myself that I would be reincarnated as a boy on Earth and while laying in the bed I would think "hmmm ok if I could just pull this little thing up (which I found out later was my clit) above these flaps it could look like more of a penis and I my walls could just act as my balls.  I may not be able to pee through it but at least it would be more fun to play with."  That was BEFORE I knew that clitorial releases existed. 

Aside from that I would believe that one of my favorite anime characters would come down and take me to their anime world so I could be transformed into an anime male and I would live there forever.  I also try to "break" through this realm and into the anime realm so I could be a guy.  I would do this by running as fast as I can but I just wind up hitting myself against the door hard.

[fatalerror]

I always wanted an android body myself, though it had a lot to do with other health issues more than my dysphoria, lol.

I never heard about the elbow thing, though I'd probably have spent a good deal of time trying to do that too, if I had heard it as a child!

Like almost everybody else, I'd pray every night to God that I'd wake up fixed in the morning. There was a point in high school where I started to wish instead that I just would never wake up anymore.

I was and still am fascinated with transformation abilities too. Whenever my friends and I would discuss having one superpower, I wanted to be able to transform into anything I wanted. Never admitted that the biggest want was just to be a "normal" guy.
