So I was reading a small interview of a trans guy today and he said the phrase "Why am I so excited all the time?' I can't get it out of my head, it's a constant thing." This totally clicked with me! I kinda got used to the needing sex all the time thing a while ago but now I'm noticing that even after my physical self is calmed down my head is still spinning with jokes and comments and just stuff relating to sex and sex appeal. Its kinda gross when I talk to my partner and I feel compelled to say a dirty joke or comment so much on her physical appearance. I've always been a pretty sexually driven person with my partner but its a little unruly now.

Has anyone else noticed that they just can't help themselves sometimes? Like you have to hold back the dirty jokes or mildly degrading comments? I'm afraid that I will get myself into trouble with my partner or close friends. I never thought that Testosterone could alter HOW and HOW MUCH I think about sex. I thought it was just supposed to alter the physical need for it. What a powerful hormone. 

Definitely. Boning's on my mind all the time, all day every day. I can make anything into a dirty joke.
I was always a sexual person but T increased that tenfold. Thankfully, I've gotten to the point in the last four or five months that I don't need to get off 5-7 times a day (it was sucking up a ton of my time). Two or three times is sufficient now.

My fiancée's got an average sex drive for a ciswoman, so... she gets it, but doesn't. Thankfully we're really close or she'd probably boot my horny *** to the curb.

Yup. I wasn't interested in sex before T and that changed ahah. I made filthy jokes before tho.

Against my wishes sometimes I had a pretty active drive before T, you can imagine it escalated a bit after it. Specifically the first few weeks but it mellowed out after awhile

Yes. 

I always had a sense of humor that occasionally plays in the gutter but it's no worse than usual. I don't think I speak about the subject more. Have not commented on anyone's appearance in that way, I tend to keep my thoughts to myself if something is attractive.

Well I'm glad its not just me....I feel kinda bad now for all the times I've ripped on guys for being so sex fueled. I guess thats why FTM dudes are the best kinda dudes. At least we KNOW this kinda thinking is not necessarily ok but that it's also something we can't really help. Self awareness is awesome! 

I don't really enjoy thinking about it, and I don't want to go out and find some sex to have as I don't think the short-lived benefits of sex by itself are really worth the bother.

It's strange. My mind can't be bothered, my body can't be bothered. It's more like a stupid itch I can't be bothered to really scratch. The whole experience feels kinda detached from the rest of the day, the rest of life.

I felt like that my whole life, though. The only time I'm interested in sex is if a very interesting person happens to be involved. Which is rare.

They say a lot of men's drive to do things stems from this sort of thing, whether it's to go buff themselves up to impress, compete, whatever... so men should use its nervous energy etc. to channel into other things. I don't have a shortage of ambitions but when it comes to sex being some kind of motivator, I am so meh. I think I know the reason and it's to do with anatomy, but there's nothing I can do about it, so no point caring I guess.     

Nope. Zero interest before, zero interest now.

Lol. Sorry to intrude, but I can't help but giggle a bit every time I see this thread title.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have random smells to go be nauseous at 

I'm not yet on T, but, from a young age, I've always thought a lot about sex. I do have higher testosterone levels than I "should", due to being XXY. Once I'm on T, I guess I'll be frustrated non-stop.
