During embryo development we all start out the same way, though what supposedly determines our gender is whether or not the Y chromosome is present. If so, the embryo develops into a male, if not the embryo develops into a female. When the embryo is developing we have these thing called gonads. Which are the future internal genitalia. There are two setups, the mullerian duct and the wolffian duct. If the SRY gene from the Y chromosome is present then testosterone is released stimulating the mullerian duct to initiate the development of internal male sex organs.
In females the anti-mullerian hormone AMH is present rejecting the development of mullerian structures and growing to the wolffian structure. After the internal structures are formed in females the mullerian duct degrades, same with males except the wolffian duct degrades.
Now for the external genitalia. Both females and males start out with the genital tuber, this will either grow to be the glans of the penis for a male or the clitoris for a female. There are also the labio scrotal folds and the urogenital folds. In a male the labio scrotal folds will become the scrotum. The urogenital folds will become the body of the penis. In a female the labio scrotal folds will become the labia majora and labia minora as will as the urogenital folds. This is the process of how we became the gender we are today, and the gender we may not be happy with. I myself am unhappy with my gender. Though I am young and wanting to make the decision to be male. I believe that I am capable of making my own decisions with good judgement, maybe even better than some adults out there. Whenever I was younger I was always off playing with racecars, video games, and bugs. My sister and I also used to play house I was always the little brother that was getting into trouble. Whenever I hit about 8 years old I started puberty. I was devestated. The thought of wearing a bra felt all wrong, then I started my period at 11. Then I KNEW it was wrong. That was NOT for me.
I've been feeling very suicidal over this matter. Never being able to have our biological kids whenever me and my girlfriend of about 8 months get married, never being able to experience the intimacy of having sex with your girlfriend/wife. Discrimination is another HUGE downfall. Ever since my Mom found out things aren't the same, my whole family has basically rejected me due to my homosexuality. I want to be able to hold my girlfriends hand and kiss her in public without any dirty looks or rude remarks and we sometimes even get harrased. I want to be a happy, normal family.
Also, I don't know if I'm the only one that does this but picturing my girlfriend giving my head is SUCH A TURN ON! Or rubbing through my pants, anything that deals with me having boy parts and her doing stuff to me tuens me on.
Anyways, the point is, I'm tired of living in a body that doesn't fit my brain. And I think I may have come up with a solutions for both FTM's and MTF's. In the case of an MTF: Get external male genitalia back to genital tuber, labio scrotal folds and urogenital folds. Remove all internal male genitalia. Remove Y chromosome and add another X chromosome, if you can't get the real thing then scientists could most likely create an artificial one. The reason the Y chromosome needs to be removed is so that there would be no possibility of the regrowth of male genitalia. Then use stem cells to regenerate the gonads, mesonephros, the wolffian duct, and the mullerian duct. Then you could get an injection to enhance growth and speed up the change. Once they have grown you now have female parts inside and out. Also since you removed the Y chromosome you now have XX DNA, yes female DNA. You would also technically be a biological girl. You would get wet, have sex with a G-Spot, have periods, pee through your urethera, and get pregenent with YOUR eggs! All like a natural born female!
In the case of FTM's: Get external genitalia back to genital tuber, labio and scrotal folds, and urogenital folds. Remove all internal female genitailia. Add Y chromosome or artificial Y chromosome, giving you genetically male DNA, and having no chance of you regrowing female genitailia. Using stem cells regenerate the gonads, mesonephros, wolffian duct, and mullerian duct. During this time you will start growing male genitalia. Using some sort of growth enhancer inject into body speeding up the puberty process. Afterwords you will be able to Urinate standing up through your penis, you will be able to produce YOUR sperm, you will be able to impregenate, get an erection normally, and have intercoure with a completely sensate penis. So, do you think this would work? Why or why not? And even if we don't have the technology now to do it, I can't see this being more that 7 years off.
