Title: If you had a choice between...
Post by: Nero on December 30, 2007, 09:21:55 PM
having a perfectly functioning body of your gender - that means uterus, menses, body produces its own E and all for mtf and perfectly functioning penile apparatus for ftm with body producing its own T - so perfect body of your target gender but one catch (there's always a catch :laugh:) you're ugly

OR

remain in the body you have

Which would you choose?

So my choice is miserable cuz Im ugly... or miserable cuz my plumbing is all messed up...

I know I can live with the plumbing problems, and though not fully functional have the plumbing corrected...

I dont know that I could live with the extreem negitive attention given to the ugly...  I think Id be even more miserable... <Seriously my looks are all I have going for me now>

I know I'd switch.  I've comments to my wife about that. 

Why would I change?  Well, I feel ugly in my body already.  Nothing is going to change that.  When I was younger I was in great shape and would turn some heads (not a lot admittedly but some).  But I still felt ugly beyond belief.  So your proposition is to feel ugly and uncomfortable with no chance for relief, or to be ugly and feel comfortable in my body.

I would take perfectly functioning body of your gender just being ugly can be fixed by plastic surgery. No surgery will give the organs if I stay. Beside I have a great personality so I could get by with ugly just kidding. 

Later,
Anna

The body.

Ugliness can be improved with attitude, style, outlook, etc.

Isn't that a question a lot of people actually deal with? As many people have said, 'mutilate a perfectly good, attractive body and turn it into something else...'

But of course I'd take it.
