So early in transition....

[Beth Andrea]

Gone, like a bad dream in the morning sun.

Yeah, those things between the legs.  One person wanted to know why I felt so much more feminine after the operation than before as I'm a woman, right?  The answer is those things between the legs - they were a constant reminder that not all was right, a constant reminder that I've had to live so much of my life as someone I wasn't.  I'm still recovering from the operation and it's all still swollen and sometimes painful if I over do it but I feel so much better now those things are GONE!

Yeah, those "things between the legs."

I've been aware of my (feminine) self for a few months now, always been kinda girlie but hid it well...

That's when I remembered I was still a guy... ...

For me at those moments of daily rediscovery of reality, I always remembered that I was a girl, born with a birth defect, one that I would correct at some point in the future, then I would look like that girl that was inside trying to get out. Well, the girl escaped the gender prison last year. Very, very soon, thanks to the world's most usefull recycling program, the "parts" will look like they're supposed to.

It will be cliche to say it sounds like cliche, but yeah! hence the term Dysphoria- difficult to bear.
The most of our tantrums and going mad has to do with time involved in the transition. You write that you are early on, it sounds like transition but is it or are you just discovering the truth?

  I too am genitally challenged. "Those things" I thought I could do this (transition) without having  to worry too much about "those things" But "those things" are getting increasing more and more difficult to cope with. For those who simply think "out of sight, out of mind" don't have a clue.

For those who simply think "out of sight, out of mind" don't have a clue.

For some, it is that way.
Admittedly, "gone" is better.

I'm getting that WITHOUT the transition being done yet. D: I think it happens from your real feelings and nature waking up...I dunno for sure, though...

I know what you mean, you catch sight of your reflection in a shop window and think, "Wow, you look good!".  Also, "those things" just plain get in the way.  It's not like I am using them for anything much either these days!
