I have an unusual view of being tg. I have never felt miserable as a male, very successful investment banker, healthy, world class sportsman and very sociable, married 4 times and have 4 children from 5 years old to 34 years old. Transitioned late in life because it was the right time, fufilling all my family obligations. Came out publucally with full page newspaper articles and a documentary by Vice Media. Only one friend had issues all others were amazingly supportive.

So now 2 years after srs and living as a female. Well I found I am equally happy, successful as a financial advisor, top sports woman, healthy, positive and love my life. Being TG for me has been the greatest gift. A chance to live 2 lives in a lifetime and loving both lives.

So lets go through some intersting physical changes. HRT is a fountain of youth, I look like I'm in my 40s and living in Bangkok where beauty clinics are abundant and so much cheaper than other major cities. Hope to keep looking young haha.

Skin needs alot more moisturuzer, T keeps male skin much oilier than females, and also I bruise much more easily and have to be more aware of bumping into objects. My body hair has disappeared and skin feels amazing softer. Facial hair is non existant. Head hair has filled in all the male patern balding areas.

Had voice lessons, walking and behavioral pattern of females. It the end it all just came naturally. I am myself with the confidence that I always had.

Full acceptance, no one cares here in Bangkok gender fluid community. So I dont know or care about passing. Men and women hit on me in clubs.

Sex, thank you Dr Sutin and PAI clinic. My orgasms are both clitoral and vaginal. Incredible orgasms but not like a male. It takes time to get aroused and its just so different.

Being TG is an amazing gift and I can only hope that others will one day see it as a blessing and not a misery.

Have a wonderful Christmas.

Great post, thanks for sharing!

My 15 years of being a post-op woman is coming up soon and I'm still happy in my skin and wouldn't trade being me.

Thanks for the post, we are VERY similar in history, ability and, thankfully, not at odds in any way with who we were.  I expect to be no less happy and capable as a female than I was as a male, your experience would seem to suggest that is possible and that's comforting.  45 days and I'll be there to complete, if that's ever really possible, my transition and get on with my second life this trip.  Best Holiday wishes to you as well.  Toni

I'm glad you got things together and have a good life.

Not sure I'd view being TG as a blessing myself, but it certainly makes things less boring - it's like getting a second life and being able to watch it develop from the perspective of an adult who has had time to develop wisdom and understanding of themselves. 

Your facial hair is gone from hair removal not just hrt right? It's great things are working out for you- we definitely do need more positive feedback.

I can't wait for my 2nd life!! [emoji4]

I too, am thankful for the gift I've been given. 

We need only look to the world to see people cursing their lottery winnings. A gift can be a blessing or a curse, it depends on the recipient.

Hugs, Devlyn

Always great to hear from you Warlockmaker.  I love the way you transitioned.

I believe I read you were in your 60s.  That's absolutely remarkable.  I was always under the impression once it's been gone for 10 years it's not coming back.  How bad was your male pattern baldness before you started your transition?

I'm only on low dose.  My hair has come back somewhat, individual hairs are definitely thicker, but it's still not great.   I was probably a Norwood 4 almost a 5.  Now my hair is between Norwood 3 and 4.  My wife says my hair has come back quite a bit. 

If I fully transition and increase my HRT dosage, I'm hoping to be as successful as you.

Thanks for the post,
Paige

I see glimpses of that now, and how I wish I could fully experience it. One day...

Knowing many immigrants, I noticed that people who were successful/happy in their old country are usually successful in the new country. And transition is kind of similar to the immigration.
