So you couldn't be a natal male and ever be impotent? (playing the devils advocate) You would tell them to cut it off and send it back if viagra had to be in your future? Skip the reattachment if Larenna Bobbit were your exwife? Think about it.

I could be a natal male and be impotent. I guess its more a combination of wanting to get up on my own and have it look right. The natal males that had the same surgery look more normal for the most part. While the one ftm surgery looks...off.

Now I will give you this, it is probably the best phalloplasty I have seen. If metaidioplasty wasn't an option, I would consider it.

That would be the most epiclly amusing and horrible thing to explain to a doctor about an x-ray.

I wouldn't do it. I like my fingers, I kinda use them a lot.

I wouldn't be able to not make fun of myself. I mean things would just be a giant joke... Peeing out my middle finger! I'm so not mature lol

Yeah yeah. Creepy.

I'll take my chances with time and advancements.

I wouldn't give up a finger for even fully functioning Normal male bits... #1 - Those parts are normally covered most of the time, so I don't have to look at them. However, my hands are not covered, and even if they were I'd still be able to tell a finger is missing. The hand looks disgusting, and you can't hide it. #2 - I like the function of my fingers, a penis functions for Sex, and peeing. My fingers function for many more things, like typing for example! And I can use my packer and STP and there are many sex toys out there to make up for the lacking of a penis, while my finger can't be replaced that easy. #3 - That looks downright painful. #4 - If you're talking about this surgery - I generally think Phalloplasty looks awful, I would not want to have that. I'd rather not have bottom surgery at all, than end up with that. Much less mess up another part of my body for it.

Oh my goodness...thats a terrible surgery in my opinion. The result is good in terms of a "boner" but the outcome of what it looks like is terrible. I rather keep my finger. If the result was more realistic and better looking, maybe I'd consider it, but probably not considering I like my fingers. Dr. Meltzer does WAY better phalloplastys that look more realistic then anything I've ever seen and his work on glans is amazing. Plus...theres no risk of me losing a finger.

Very interesting, I never tought they could think of somethig like that...It's true looks great, better than I've seen before but, IDK what to say it' just not worthed...it's freacky to miss a finger, it's very noticeble.While I was looking at the post op pics it just poped into my head a scene from Scary Movie 1, with that guy who had that grose hand with only 4 fingers :& and he tried to serve some food to the others in the house...everybody was on the verge to throw up. So go figure, you're in the restaurant with some great girl on a first date, what will you do you'll keep your hand under the table the whole time or in the poket, unless you want to scare her shoes off with ur deformed hand :lol: Seriosly I won't sacrifce something so usefull as a finger, there's a reason why we have 5 :lol:

The neat part about being a guy is you get to make up a story about the missing digit to explain it away in a manner which makes you look more macho. Such as, "Lost it in a fireworks accident when I was young", or "Had it blown off in the war", or "lost it at my last job, wrangling alligators". Or something like that. I have a scar that I call a "duelling scar", even though it's really not.

Wow, i think it's kinda disturbing. Actually, scratch that, VERY disturbing.

MAYBE, i might consider it, or take it more seriously if the results were better. Although, i doubt i'd be willing to sacrifice a finger even if they were able to construct a penis that's the equivalent to a bio guy.

The hands looked freaky. They reminded me of cartoon hands. Like the Simpsons.

I really couldn't do this. I actually favor my fingers.... I'm suprised how normal it does look though after being taken off completely. Almost unrecognizable. But still.

Thats what ticks me off about transitioning, no good penis surgeries. I'm fine using fake penises. for now.

Yeah.. "for now" being the key words. I don't think I'll ever feel fully complete til i can have the whole package. I really hope that while I'm still in my prime (I'm 20) the technology will make this possible. Don't wanna feel as though I'm waiting around for something for so long, you know?

this could sound reallllllly bad and probably stupid, but would it be illegal or not allowed to use someones finger that allows organ donors or something?

wouldn't that work?

As awesome as that would be....I play woodwind instruments, piano, and bass guitar. I need all my fingers and they're fleshy textures.

      This is a fairly long video by Philosophy Tube,  (Abigail Thorne)  Discussing some of Judith Buttler's work and related stuff.   I wasn't sure where to post it, so if there is a better place, move it.

      I have a fantastic therapist. She is so caring she has helped me open up so much. Unfortunately, She is ending her internship. Do to a hiring freeze at the VA she isn't going just go right into a position there.  My Endo is out of the Denver VA hospital. I haven't talked with her in probably 2 yrs. I am  looking to transfer providers and get back to seeing a GYN at the Cheyenne VA.

      Shopping at the mall today and helping out at Torrid I excused myself to the restroom. The manager told me the restroom at JC Penny was much closer (I normally use the family restroom in the food court).   Upon arrival I discovered that JC Penny doesn't have a family restroom, it's either or.   The men's room was occupied with customers, and me going in with large breasts, long hair, and makeup was going to cause a stir, so I opted for the woman's room instead. I was the only one in the woman's room.    Texas state law does state that your must use the restroom that matches your chromosomes, and it's a misdemeanor to not do so, but it seemed to be the best choice (I really needed to go!)

      I had some guy grab my butt on the ship.  I don't know how "real" it was, but I did not enjoy that at all.  Also did not enjoy the hazing I saw other people going through.  One person can only do so much to stop that when there are 10 people doing it.

      I pulled this out of a stack of old military mementos yesterday.  I guess I didn't realize how cool this one was because I did so much of this kind of thing back then.

      This internet video thing is pretty amazing.  I'd call it Zoom, but there are other platforms out there.  I prefer Zoom over Teams because Zoom puts me and everyone else in the same picture.  I like seeing the whole group in one shot.  Teams of course is about having so many people that you can't get them in the shot, or is it?   Just saying that I have never met any of my counselors in person.  Doctors, of course I have and I am lucky there.  They are 3.5 miles from my house as is the main transgender surgery place in town.  I've been doing virtual visits with the medical doctors lately though.  It feels like once I became steady state, they don't need to interact with me physically that much.  I have enjoyed going into their office in my nice clothing.

      I guess a lot depends on where you start and where you wanna end up.  For me, doing the "boy form" thing has come with disadvantages.  Smaller skeleton, thinner bones, and skinny/tiny everything.  I'll never be taken seriously.  I guess the advantage is that my way of blending in is just kind of confusing.  "Mommy, is that a boy or a girl?"    One of the biggest arguments for starting transition early in life is I think it gives a person a greater ability to pass.  My two MtF friends started early, and pass really well.  They never got to the larger bone structure, beard, deep voice stuff.  Me being intersex (which is more complicated) and not getting around to "boy form" until my 30's, my body size and features were pretty much set in stone.      You're lucky.  Some folks pay all that and more, even AFTER insurance.  One of my friends faced the choice last year - pay for her final year of college or pay for her meds.  She's taken a year off from college to work and save up money to finish.    My medical expenses have been more injury-related than therapy or medication   The state covered some of it with a fund for crime victims, insurance covered a lot, but there's ended up being a few thousand dollars spent out-of-pocket since 2022 to put me back together again.  I've never found a decent therapist, but my husband has a psych degree among other things, so I figure talking with him is almost as good.  I do have a good doctor, although I have to drive a long way to a big city to see her.  Mostly she takes a basic look at me, and writes another year's prescription.  Since I'm non-op and only using testosterone cream for a localized effect, its pretty simple stuff.

      I'm a tracker and I've paid for 100% of my transition costs out of pocket.  Counseling was a huge, huge part of my transition and well worth my money.  Not to be uppity about all of this.  I'm just sharing information I have because I have it and it may be useful for others.  Here is my analysis of my spending on transition over the last 2.5 years:   Medical Doctors and Blood Draws: $2,397 Counseling: $3,800 Medications (brand name): $2,702.85 Medications (generic): $485.39 Total: $9,385.24   I picked up on the internet early in transition that transition is a consumer activity.  I tend to agree with that.   This year (Jan - May 18th, 2024), I've spent: Medical Doctors: $102 Medications: $241.52 Total: $343.52   So I'm on a much more sustainable path with it.  I'm pretty happy with where I am with it, although I do still desire surgery and am nervous about how that will all unfold.  But my doctors have me on this steady state thing.  I could seek out other medications, but what I'm doing is good enough.  Oh, I'm missing something....  I did a bunch of electrolysis that didn't appear to have any effect.  I've always enjoyed shaving and I use pink shaving cream now (I've got some lipstick blond in me).  It's good enough.  Not sure if I'll do electro or laser in the future.  The need to shave my body has become less and less.  Before HRT, I was shaving my body weekly or even every 5 days.  Now it is more like 2-3 weeks.  Everyone's body hair is different.  My beard is very coarse and stiff while my body hair has been somewhat minimal and light.  It's nice to have smooth legs and not have to shave as much.   Counseling was $200/session.  I tried one or two counselors before I found one who resonated with where I really was.  When I was prescribed HRT, I didn't fill the prescription until 4 months later.  I had to take some time to decide that I really wanted to take on that lifetime financial commitment.  And of course the possibly negative health consequences too, but I think I was actually thinking more about the finances of it all.  Maybe 51%.   I did a lot of work to revitalize my career before jumping into medical transition.  I started counseling 3 months before I got the best paying job of my life.  The pressure of wanting to transition was so great that I couldn't wait any longer.  She was coming out.  Even though I had very little money, I splurged on some nice dresses and a full length mirror and then started counseling.  Sometimes you just have to move forward and hope for the best.  Other times it is better to wait and do some hard work.  The grace of it all..

      And when the pressure is released it sucks in heat.  I had a regulator leaking and it was covered with ice.  It's how a heat pump works as well.   Why do they always pick names like this?  It's like the exact opposite of what it really is. I hate politics so much.  But I still have to follow it.
