So, the more I read about people experiences and concerns the more I realize that not having genital dysphoria while being only attracted to men seems kind of uncommon.

Don't know if it's because I focus on other things or it's just I don't have a significant degree of genital dysphoria and that's ok. While I can be extremely self-conscious about my general appearance (face wise, body wise, clothing wise) I just don't have any major problems with my parts. It's not I enjoy using them, but certainly they don't bother me much.

Also while I don't care if a boy is bi or straight or curious or whatever (really, those labels don't mean a thing to me) I do care about he's masculine or not (both mind wise and body/face wise, I tend to like masculine or very masculine men).

How many of you can relate to this? Am I that rare? Feedback!

I am the same. I am very much into men, but I don't give my boy parts a second thought.

(edit) and yes, I *love* muscles :~]

I keep hearing that everyone's transition is different.
If it feels right, it must be that you are just being yourself. Until you change.

I would prefer to remove my package when I get to that decision, but the circumstances may make me keep it.
I *am* a bit dysphoric about it, but wouldn't let it stop me enjoy the life.

For the record, I feel bisexual atm. Next partner would be most likely a man or another mtf.

Muscles? I suppose one needs them to handle me like a man. That is great as long as he doesn't hit me /which has happened in the past/.

A sex change isn't going to make me a woman. That comes from within. HRT is a different matter, it has been the leverage I needed to let myself out.

So I saw no point waiting for surgery before I started experimenting with guys.

I am glad I made that choice. I've had some fun ...

Those experiences have also *negated* any anxiety I had about my boy parts - because the kind of guys I have been with were fully aware I was trans, knew what to expect, and were already fine with it.

I'll say one more thing.

If you are into guys, but are holding out because of anxiety about your bits, I really recommend trying it.

It might just solve the problem - you may feel it is no longer an issue. I wonder if I even need surgery anymore.

Just in case - the change I mention refers to shifting sexual orientation. Happened to me, and there is no guarantee I reached the one I'd settle at.

I'm more or lessthe same. If someone offered me SRS for free I'd do it but honestly the procedure is kinda scary and I would rather spend my money on something else.

Also from the results I've seen it is not 100% passable as a cis vagina by any means. Most guys i date don't care. if a guy iswilling to date a transgender girl at all he will put up with certain parts. If he's not i don't even want him.

I am pretty much the same here. I do not have genital dyphoria, but it's doesn't mean I like it. It just, genital doesn't matter. And I like man and never use my genital for having sex (it doesn't work anyway from long time anti-androgen). And my daily life is totally a woman, so for me getting sex-change will only slightly make the different and that different is only me who know. I also more concern about general appearances.

The only moment that I wish I have done sex change is when I have to wear bikini, but it's not a big deal, I didn't wear it everyday and tucking is not that bad.

I use to want to have srs, but after sometime living as a woman, I decide to stay this way, where I am happy now. Even though all my trans friend getting srs. And I took care all of then when they get it. So you are not alone there and there are more openly non-op trans like Buck Angel, he also come out as non-op too.

I'm exclusively attracted to men also, and dont suffer from gential dysphoria. I wont get SRS as I dont feel the need personally and I rather focus on the things that do bother me if I'm going down the surgery route. Not that uncommon my best friend feels the exact same way about not having genital dsyphoria.
