would you live your life as your birth gender , just doing HRT

[stephaniec]

Just curious whether you would live as your birth gender while on full dose HRT with no plans on changing how you dressed in public. I'm on my 4th year of HRT and I guess my appearance has changed a lot. I guess I look quite feminine , but sometimes I still go in male mode. I got a little pissed at the Pride Parade when a cop refered to me as male.

Are those your breast that big in your profile pic or stuffing ? But to answer that question probably not

I certainly wouldn't mind larger breasts.  I'm currently an A cup.

I'm about to start HRT and have no intention of going full time as a woman.  I identify as non-binary.  I want to have breasts and feminine curves to help me feel like a woman that I am often, but enjoy being a man (and husband) often also.  I'm 61 so I don't care if I'm sterile, my boobs can be hidden or "manboobs"!, and I like the thought of having womanly curves.  I'm bisexual to the extent that enjoy sex with my wife as a man, with a man I completely envision me a woman.  My wife has gone through menopause and doesn't want sex as often so I do end up having more time as a woman now with my "boyfriend" which my wife is okay with.

Sorry,  but that's like asking to get punches in the face.  No.

How so?  I said I'd like larger breasts.  Someone else mentioned they'd like more feminine curves?  What's wrong with that, even if we can't go all the way to full transition?

I've been on hrt nine years now and still present male, but I answered maybe because I'm not sure I can keep this up much longer.

[Balerie]

Nope. I'm presenting male now but expect to make a full transition sans surgery in the near future. Near future at the moment is within 2 years dependent on how much change happens to me and whether I will be able to keep presenting male or be forced out.

I usually appreciate your inquisitive ponderings, but... I don't get this... I don't get the question.

You're asking would you live your life as a dude but still take HRT???  If this is correct, what's the point?  I don't get it.

Maybe I'm just not with something but I can't wrap my head around being on HRT and living as a man... that just seems so... I dunno, incredibly foreign to me.  It's like taking sleeping pills then going to Disney World rofl... it makes no sense.  Someone help me understand this?

P.S.  A lot of us simply cannot pass as men anymore anyway... no makeup, ball cap, jeans & t-shirt: Good afternoon ma'am.

[KathyLauren]

Nope, no way, not a chance, uh-uh.  I'm full-time female and I'm staying this way.  Best thing I ever did.

some people feel this way

[VeronicaLynn]

No,

I am attempting to do sort of the opposite though. That is live as much as a woman as I can without HRT. I may very well do HRT eventually, but living my life as me is much more important that whatever physical changes HRT might do to feminize my body.

I can see why someone with real bad physical dysphoria might do it though. Mine is mostly social, so doing this would not really help things.

[Wild Flower]

I'm considering in doing this, but only until (a.) get all the surgeries done to pass, especially the voice, or (b.) just for any reason. The only reason is because I do not want to look in-between, but rather androgynous or whatever gender looks like me more so. Androgynous, not gender-queer. Two different standards. It would never be a lifetime decision though.


I do not honestly care what society thinks of me anymore. Call me by any name, my sense of self-worth doesn't rely on someone's' else perception of me. No emotions play in that. Call me ugly, fat, useless, stupid, some slur word... and I don't care. Words of another are meaningless.

Even with my own family, I do not think I am caring about what they say about myself. Why should I?

I don't think it's like sleeping pills then going to Disney World (that would be like getting vocal surgery and regretting it).... it's like drinking 4 cups of liquor (metaphor for hormones), and then going to work as a coping mechanism (like being an exotic dancer). It's not the norm, but if your job is a demanding job social job, and cons and pros are thought out, you rather be a little drunk so you can deal with the customers and everything (which is a metaphor for life).

It's like you don't want to commit suicide, but you don't want to be "transgender" either. It's like just taking the edge off.

I think that's at least one reason someone might do this.

You're not trying hard enough. Grow a beard, cut your hair short, wear baggy clothes that hide your body. No one will even begin to suspect. Try not to get too depressed doing that of course.

Its hardly ideal, but its a choice between bad and worse. I have family obligations that I take very seriously.

I don't know how I manage to do this when so many others can't. I'm either very stubborn (which I am), or perhaps somewhat non-binary?

[Harley Quinn]

Most certainly not.
