benefits of being trans

[Ave]

I'd rather be a different person than trans to be honest.

it depends on what's meant by if we weren't trans. Do people mean if we were born as the sex we're transitioning to, or do they mean if we were born being alright with our biological sex?


If I were born a girl, I'd probably be pretty messed up and use men and women alike.

If I were just a regular guy, I think I would be a pretty cute gay guy :3 (there's like no reality where I envision myself as a cisgender hetero guy...the idea of being a "family man" in the suburbs with a wife and children is completely repellant to me...and I'd probably be a republican *nauseous*).

It doesn't matter which because if I had been born cis I would not have to deal with the crap that is dealing with this condition.

I never thought about it negatively before. I just thought you can't get upset about something that you can't "unexperience".

Sure, but that doesn't mean I can't think about it sometimes and often desperately wish I had been born cis.

Boner stays up for however long I and my girlfriend want it to be.

She can pick whatever size she's in the mood for.
(Well at least after I expend my dick collection.)

[Jayr]

To the ones coming here with negativity...

I'm pretty sure this thread was meant to be positive and fun.

Some of you nay-sayers ought to start your own thread rather than poop in someones pool.

You know, that's a very useful skill. I kinda wish my boyfriend could just be like "babe, guess what? I got a rainbow glitter sparkly one today, it tastes like cupcakes "

Isn't variety the spice of life? XP

Here's another;

My girlfriend takes FOREVER to do her make up and all that. FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

But since I was raised as a chick, I know what to do with long hair.

So while she applies her make up, I'm styling her hair;
So we are out of the door and ready to go out twice as fast!

Oh my. It's not just people who were raised as chicks who would know what to do with long hair...

we're called gay boys

Yes, yes it is

Personally I like more natural skin tones.
But whatever floats your boat!

I must've not have been socialized as a girl at all, because I have no idea what to do with longer hair. I'm not even sure I can put hair up properly.
xD
That's cute though, Jayr.

And Ave, I think you could argue that feminine gay men definitely receive more feminine socialization, since not all gay men are necessarily feminine - regardless, I'm pretty sure Jayr isn't gay.

I'm not an expert but I know a thing or two.

Haha nope. Currently straight.

Well my wife gets the benefit with style, hair, make up advice. I swear if it wasn'`t for me she'd look like grandma Walton

no shrinkage when it's cold

[MariaMx]

Totally agree with that. I will be 59 next month and people have estimated my age as anything down to 35.  That would make any woman feel good. 

How true. I have a younger brother who is now my older brother. At least that's what everyone thinks when they meet us.

Not going limp in the worst possible time... And not having to suffer from a case of B.B. so bad you can't walk the next day...

At least that should be a small benefit.

[Ave]

And.. Not going limp in the worst possible time. Not to mention having a case of blue balls so bad you can't walk the next day.

Really, I hate those hanging things.

Um do we have to?

As a motorcyclist I can so relate to that! Nothing worse than stopping by the side of the road in winter and wondering if you will need tweezers to find it!

Yep. Deffo TMI. But wondering what BB is and hoping to never find out..

Im with you there. I personally cant see anything good about being born this way, however, to contrast sounding negative, its interesting reading other peoples views in this thread and its cool for you lot who see benefits in this.
  Justmeinoz - your comment made me laugh :p
