I'm not fussed at all, I'm a bottom. Sure in an ideal world I'd prefer there was a penis there than a vag but in practical terms it makes not a blind bit of difference to me.

also.. what is thrust response?

You know when you get turned on, and you instinctively want to thrust your pelvis toward/into your partner?

Not to get too graphic, but this instinct kind of makes certain sexual positions awkward for me - specifically, me being on top being penetrated doesn't work really well, because what my body wants to do is useless and/or counterproductive in that position.

oh ok I know what you mean now

I haven't started hormone therapy but hope for some growth for penetration. I have to agree with some of the other guys that my overall body appearance and chesticles are a bigger worry for me. As of right now I don't even want any bottom surgery.

This.

On thrust response - I've never known it any other way. As a kid, my form of masturbation was humping/thrusting into things. I didn't know that what I had "down there" had any sexual function whatsoever. In other words, middle school was awkward.
Size wise, I'd like something more than what I've got, but realistically, I expect to always need some help for penetration.

Females don't have the thrust repsonse?

I'm wondering too...

Oh my. I just remembered an awkward incident from a few years ago, when was with my first boyfriend.

We were making out somewhere, which was pretty awesome, and I had never made out with anyone before so I got pretty excited. After I went home we started texting about it, and he asked me why I kept thrusting my hips while we were kissing. I honestly had no idea I was doing it.

I guess any girls that he had made out with before me didn't have that thrust response, otherwise he wouldn't have asked me about it.

Now do women have a thrust response or not?

Haven't slept with any for quite a long time...

P.S. I have the thrust reflex too.

I've had people ask me this too, it's just a reflex, I can't help it

i want to be able to get off from penetration. if i need a bit of an extension to get my partner off, thats ok too.

thrust reflex? oddly enough this is the first i've heard of it but since i've been in tune with my sexuality i've had it. something sexy on tv? it happens. "cuddling" with my ex? it happened. i guess i never thought about it being a male thing before

haha, this was me exactly when i was in middle school.  i had no idea what part down there was supposed to feel good or what to do with it, so i mostly just went around humping my pillows/side of the mattress when i got horny.

I had no idea that there was actually a name for this. It kinda makes sense to me now though. I remember when my boyfriend and I were starting to date, (I wasn't out or obvious yet) we would, y'know, be getting intimate, and I would just start thrusting, even if I was on bottom. He thought it was funny, sexy even, and we just never thought about it after that because it was just one of those things I did. And when I came out and he started seeing me as a male, I remember him saying one time, "Maybe that's why you thrust a lot; essentially, you're a dude." So yeah, I found this funny.

@nygeel, curious to know how you're an inch big already without T...

Before i was on T i didnt care what kind of growth i got down there. I think I was more into my voice change, facial structure, facia hair, & muscle change to really care about that. Once it started growing I became more interested. I'm not sure how big mine is hard, it depends on how horny I am, but it is big enough to penetrate, which is awesome! I heard it grows for about 4 years and I'm just over 1 year. I would like it to get a little bit bigger though. As far as a thrust reflex, I've always had one. I honestly never realized that was different on males and females, but i never thought about it. I guess that would make sense.
