Have the surgeons perfected Sexual Reassigmnet Surgery so that once complete, you can achieve a sexual orgasims or is that part gone.  A freind was expressing a little concern to me  the other day about this, and so I thought I'd voice it to those who have had it done.

I have seen it posted that the success rate is 85%.

However, I have to wonder how many women would report less than good results.  If you do end up sensate it may be months or several years before the big O happens if it ever does.  Many natally born women have problems reaching  O.

Now, I don't have sex with men and I have never been in a lesbian relationship. My wife and I are not in a lesbian relationship. I do have orgasms though. I have done it myself and they are wonderful. I don't know what it would be like with another person.

Thanks Sheila for your insightful comments and I really enjoyed talking with you. You have definately helped me to someewhat make up my mind about SRS at this time, but it could change in the oncoming years.

I'm not sexually active now and haven't been for several years.  My wife, SO, roommate (not really sure what to call her anymore) does not want to be lesbian, so she will not be intimate with me.

I do dream about being with a man after surgery.  As for now, I do know that if I stimulate myself I can reach a dry climax

Some days I would be better served keeping my mouth shut.

Today is probably one of them.  I'm not in the best of moods and probably shouldn't of responded to any messages. 

Oh well, sometimes I can be my own worst enemy.

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

I'm a little confused by your comment if you have not yet had your SRS, how do you rub your "clit?" 

You can't really expect your wife or SO to suddenly become a lesbian when you all of a sudden change sexes. It's something you are born with. But I'm sure that if you were to caress her sexually , she may be into that.

Gina

:\ If you want to get graphic take it to the sexuality forum please.

Point taken, I apoligize.

As a Biber girl, Class of '74, I can say that Dr. Biber's technique may not give the most cosmetically pleasing result but is WONDERFULLY functional! Although there is no clitoris, the technique leaves the greatest concentration of sensory receptors right at the opening of the vagina (which is a darned convenient place to have them!) - GGirls should think about having the "G Spot" relocated - it works wonders! In 32 years I can not remember having intercourse without reaching orgasm (but I am sure it must have happened now and then, like when somebody came to the door!) "Flying solo" has a 100% success rate as well. (Did I mention I have been single too long?)

Since I'm seeing Marci in January, this is a huge concern.  It seems the technique has advanced enough that a sensate vagina is pretty much assured.  Ability to reach orgasm is as much in the head as it is between the legs, so the other 15% may not be entirely surgical in nature.  Marci, keeps all the nerves intact, including those to the shaft.  I've heard nothing but positive comments about her technique.

I found this in the Wikipedia:

QuotePost-operative male to female transwomen (having undergone vaginoplasty) generally experience full orgasm, involving any combination of the clitoris, vagina, and labia.

However, I've also heard that studies done have shown that 1 in 3 genetic women never achieve orgasm. I assume it would be the same for transsexual women.
So, don't be concerned if you do not experience orgasm post-op, it is the same for many non-transsexual women.
But, I also agree with Dawn on this.

QuoteAbility to reach orgasm is as much in the head as it is between the legs,so the other 15% may not be entirely surgical in nature.

Hope this helps.

I have to say this, that it takes me at least 15 min to get the ball rolling. I don't know a man who would wait that long. I imagine maybe another woman would. I guess I will never find out. I'm happy with the way it is now.
Sheila

  FYI some men can & do wait the whole 15 minutes!

I just wanted to interject here to comment on post.  I would believe that to be a very accurate statement, and also a sad statistic.  I believe though (outside of something being medically wrong), that it is completely dependent on who you are with.  I am a genetic woman and when I was with my ex-husband, although I reached O sometimes early in our marriage, after any feelings I had for him were gone (he was mentally/verbally abusive), I had just come to terms that I would probably not reach another one again (unless I did the "solo" thing).  Well...along came Marco and without getting too personal and graphic, let's just say that part of my world is way beyond anything I would have ever imagined!!!

Pam

Oh yes. I will have to agree with you on that one.

Hi Leigh:

85% success rate!  that's high in my opinion.  I know a few people (about 10) who have had SRS, and only one seems to have the big O.  So if we take that into consideration, that only makes 10% success rate....
Oh what the heck?  some of us (pre-op) girls haven't had that O feeling for ages, and I don't think it's going to get any better with SRS...

One note on orgasms:
The more frequent your orgasms, the more satisfying.
If you have a lot of uh...practice, you should do fine.

Damn.  I'm out of practice.  Just no desire to.

Huh, is that what's going on!

I always thought it was the other way around, like we all had a particular # og O 's & we used them up like coupons!
