In case you haven't yet heard the news from Twitter...here are two surveys that are going to offer some awesome vital resources for FTM folks and those who love them.

The surveys are being done by Jamison Green, author of "Becoming a Visible Man" and former President of FTMInternational. According to the survey "He is interested in the sexual health and satisfaction of all transmen, whether or not they have had hormones or surgery, and in the experiences of their partners. He will use the data as raw material for a book, tentatively entitled "The FTM Guide to SEX," plus academic presentations and journal articles to educate medical and therapeutic service providers about trans lives. Collaborating is urologist and surgeon Dr. Miroslav Djordjevic of Serbia. Dr. Djordjevic is interested in post-operative quality of life for all transmen who have had genital reconstruction. Dr. Djordjevic and Mr. Green plan to make professional conference presentations together and to co-author a journal article using the data collected here."

Translation:  Give me your opinion so I can make money off it.

I've worked with J. Green and no doubt a lot of the rights and resources you now enjoy are only there because he worked very hard to put them there.

So have I.  Rights are one thing, exploitation is another.

I filled it in.. the questionnaire doesn't in my opinion seem very well thought out to be honest.
