Its like open questions...
in conversation not asking questions which can be answered with a simple yes or no...

If you ask something and the reply is a simple yes or no there is not much conversation.
If the reply is something where emotions are added... a viewpoint.. a few more thoughts... then people have something to respond to 


hugs

I am Pre-op on the cusp of jumping off, just marking time for the date to happen and the Dr appointment can be attended.

The only goal I have at the moment is to be happy and comfortable in my own skin.

I have just lost 15kg (about 33 pound) with about another 12 pound to go, so when I read about someone wanting to be a "fat trans woman" it does not inspire or interest me.

As my mother used to say "if you have nothing nice to say then don't say anything" rather than enter into a topic that does not interest me, I move on and leave it for those who do have an interest. No hard feelings

I was being a baby again. Very recently I've had experiences of being purposely ignored.

Before I wasn't so cynical to quickly assume others are purposely ignoring me.
I use to give others a very long period of the benefit of a doubt, but after awhile they prove they were indeed purposely ignoring me.

Usually, I find I need to have posts up for a day or two to get a lot of replies. Unless I ask a really easy question, not everyone will have something to say.

I really hope you stay around and let us get to know you. I've learned an incredible amount from this site and gotten a lot of support.

Thank You. I'll try that.

While I'm pre op. I keep my body thin. Making myself as invisible as possible. In this "man's body", I doesn't want show it's features.

Post op, in a woman's body, I want to show up the bodily features. Be very visible.
I am very sexually attracted to fat woman, and I would sexually enjoy being one.

No hard feelings. Every woman is different.

Read the entire thread . . . Glad you posted and encourage you to continue to do so.

Sorry you felt ignored and also doubt that you were.  Hopefully, you'll find us an engaging and wholesome group and a great place to hangout. 

I think I get your initial post - I found myself in your words several times, but being full time for 15 years and post-op for 11 I've learned that a lot of the deep and important things about my transition didn't occur quite as I imagined.  I think it's the unknown part of being a woman that causes this, and being a woman newly begins to open pathways and states of being that the masculine simply cannot not grasp - even if told about them.  I found that discovery process so thrilling and life giving.  I hope you have similar experiences; they are beyond words.

Take care and stay in touch,

Rachel

Thank You Very Very Very Much.

I'm curious, which part reminded you of you ?

Yes, I'm sorry, but I'm better with answering questions than guessing what people want - I tend to guess wrong.

Anyway, the good news is, you also don't need an expensive and complicated surgery to achieve a lot of that.  I ended up smelling nice and getting the serious fat redistribution on HRT alone, and I honestly felt that I had finished transition and was living comfortably as a woman/in a woman's body well before I was post-op. You may be surprised by the magic HRT can work.

(I'm a post-op bisexual trans woman in an apparently lesbian marriage; not quite what you envision, but for all intents and purposes I'm a lesbian in my daily life, since I'm not going to cheat on my wife.)

I want the vagina and the "female" voice. Need surgeries for that. I'll take the risky, quick, and lazy method, getting vocal surgery, instead of trying to get it threw voice training.

I need facial surgeries too.

This Is ALL TRUE.
If And Hopefully When I'm A Post Op Lesbian Transwoman:

- I will be a very comfortable post op lesbian transwoman. I can and will actually like taking pictures. Others could watch me doing intemete stuff, and I would be comfortable and even like that. 

Being comfortable is a blessing - what was surprising was all the little things in life before transition that seemed slightly off just one after another re-framed themselves into something that often provided an intuitive and nascent insight to conversation across the gender divide that occurs automatically and often reflexively such that we don't even realize it happened.  My body aspirations were different but I wasn't afraid to pretty public about my transition and my surgery/transition was filmed and broadcast by one of the large networks.  It as nominated for an Emmy.

- I will be a physically affectionate and touchy feely post top transwoman.


Yep, really a huge turnaround for me here, thank goodness!!!

- I would show some skin. Never hide the arms. Sometimes show some leg, or upper back, or belly & lower back.

- When I'm a post op transwoman, I want to be a fat woman. I will gain alot of weight after becoming post op. My genetics and the hormone therapy will send alot of fat in my butt. Hopefully I will get a big belly, back fat, thick thighs, and thick arms too.

- When I'm a post op transwoman, I will enjoy getting sweaty. The hormone therapy will make me smell like a woman. It's the hormones that make born-a-girl women smell womanly, and born-a-boy men smell manly. A transwoman on hormones will smell womanly.

I notice that I acquired "The Scent Of A Woman" when I startd HRT.  I can no longer notice but it was one of the most thrilling aspects of HRT>

I'd be surprised if many new girls here didn't have similar expereinces.

Take good care,

Rachel

Thank You Very Very Very Much.

I have an urge to tell you just how comfortable I would be post op given everything goes smoothly.
I'm resisting that urge unless you would like to know.

I'm trying not to rush things too much on this forum.
