It is an instinctive drive to feel the want to procreate. Much of our lives are spent devoted to the pursuit of a mate, finding the right one, and then settling into a cohesive partnership. Children usually are part of their plans at some point. Those who try desperately to conceive a child and fail, will either adopt, go childless, or divorce because one or the other cannot live life without a genetic child. Baby surrogates are another option today.
Some of the deepest seeded desires to have children, are in men. This is why women, if they are perceptive and raised to understand their place as life bearers, will be very selective about who it is that they accept as mates. Women know men are driven to spread their seed. I have long felt that some of those who claim to be transsexual men, are just over-sexed, unsatisfied, and have miss-read their desires...a good therapist or psychologist will be able to pick on this, and make the patient examine those issues.
Therefore, anyone who is a trans-gendered, and really thinking about SRS at some point, should give the issues of procreation major considerations. Especially if your young, and haven't had any kids. Quiet often the mid life TS, will be married and have children of their own. Another issue within itself...
I will suggest however; that it isn't a very smart move to be like the current female to male TS who has publicly announced "HIS" pregnancy to the media, and is in the process of writing a book, and looking for a movie deal. "HE" is calling himself the worlds first pregnant man...OH YA!, that is just what our community needs to help us become accepted into society. Get real!
She/males who want it both ways, ( pun intended ) and want convivial relationships with the opposite sex, are selfish in my view...
They are not true transsexuals, but rather are trans-genders...in a very pale sense of the word.
Even though I was more or less sterile, and couldn't have sired a child, I realized that the family tree was going to end where I am concerned...my desire to have a child was not a priority with me. Thankfully my husband wasn't looking for a woman whom he could have children with. ( he has one from his first marriage ) Therefore we are on the same page where this subject is concerned.
Sperm and egg banks are expensive to use as a backup plan. There is a lot of ego involved with many trans-sexuals who are going to have SRS and still want to push the issue of still having babies later...
In my opinion, someone who falls into this category, hasn't thought things out very deeply.
