How Young Can I Be For An Srs


Guest Ariel Mai

Well like a lot of you, my downstairs mix up has been bugging me to the extreme. I feel fake as a boy and as a girl. I feel fake as a boy because I am pretending to be someone I am not, but I feel fake as a woman because I have male genitalia. This is the case for me and I cry almost everyday about it, and even though I start hormones in a week I want SRS next year. The problem is next year I will be 16 going into 11th grade. I plan to do at the beginning of summer so I have time to recover. I just don't know how long I can keep it down there. I understand the requirements for the surgery and I will fit them all by the summer of next year. I am just concerned about doctors with my age. Will thy have my wait, or will they say okay you pass all the requirements let's go. I know I need parent consent, and I know I am ready to take this leap, but I must wait a whole year. It seems like forever, and I do not know if my therapist will say yes or not, which I hope she will. This was more of a vent. Feel free to comment.

That's no reason not to try anyway, Kim i believe had to go on TV and get laws changed/adjusted/bent to get her's done, I don't see why Ariel can't try to do the same if she really wanted. That said, do prepare for the worst (having to wait until 18) and start talking to people about your desire's now. Between you, your parents, your therapist, and whatever doctors you talk to, you may find the perfect set of circumstances to get it done.

Good Luck in your Efforts

Honestly I do not feel as if I would make it to 18 to get it done, I think by then either it would be cut of completely gone by then. I can't stand it I tell this to my therapist every time I go in, I feel as if I keep taking baby steps to becoming who I want, I am ready for a leap already. I know I am being self concerned, but I just want this done as a teenager, I want to know the pressures as a teenage girl. I want a relationship as a teenager with a straight teenage boy, but what teen boy is going to go after a girl with a penis. It prevents me from wearing what I want to, and it hurts to tuck for me, it is just a pain.

No....I never indicated that she shouldn't try.....

Just that the rules are different at this time....

I encourage those of us who can, to push the envelope...that is how changes happen!

Best of luck, Honey!

I would suggest just giving you surgeon of choice a call and asking. Worst they can say is no. However, you do have to have met all other requirements. Will have you lived as a female for at least a year? Will you have been on HRT a minimum of six months? Do you have two letters of recommendation from your psychologists/therapists? At least one must be a psychologist. And finally, where is the money coming from? If you're planning on getting insurance to pay, I know at least my insurance policy had a minimum age requirement of 18. Another thing to check into.

Well I start hormones next week. I am planning on getting the surgery next years summer so I would have been female full time for a year and been on Hrt for a year. My psychologist I'm pretty sure will give me a letter of recommendation for it then. (knock on wood). The money I'll check with the insurance company, but I am pretty sure my parents will have saved up enough by then. I'm not asking for anything over the next year and saving up money, using my bank account money, and everything else. So I am in great hopes to have the money. :)

Ariel, I'm so excited for you!!!!! I bet you absolutely can't wait! :) I know I was just as excited, only now i'm looking forward to SRS. If you have to babe, you can go to thailand or other country and get it done. If you decide to do it stateside, 18 is the law :P

Hugs,

Hayley

      The numbers were not impressive really considering the magnitude of our largest counties.  The article does not say how many signatures were collected in the right areas or if the signatures were verified by the county ROV's.  The story is meant to be impressive and may sound that way to people in less populated political areas, but I am glad to say it turned out pretty weak.

      https://www.yahoo.com/news/proposal-limit-transgender-youth-rights-224408735.html     Not too surprising in California, but scary that it still got 400,000 signatures.  Well, there are a lot of right leaning counties, for sure.   Carolyn Marie

      Hi @Arushi, welcome to TransPulse and thanks for sharing. Your story sounds familiar to me in some ways: I used to go out dressed femme exclusively at night and received a lot of attention from guys. Back then I had no interest in them, mainly since their attention so often resembled sexual harassment. But that was 12 years ago and a lot has changed. Now I am exclusively into guys, and proudly trans.    You ask are you wrong to crossdress; I would say absolutely not. It sounds as if this urge comes from a place deep within you, and I doubt you could suppress it for long if you tried. You also describe no harms that have resulted from your crossdressing. But maybe the real question is how do you feel about it? Leaving aside the societal stigma that can surround crossdressing, do you feel there is anything wrong with your behaviour? And lastly, does your wife know? If not, then that may be a problem. But if so, then imo the problem is in not being open with your wife, not in crossdressing. Crossdressing is a morally neutral act.

      I am opening up for the first time to someone other than myself. A bit about me; I am an Asian Indian male, 45 , married and dad, working professional from Portland. I have very mixed body features. I don’t have much hair on me and I wax so have a smooth body all over, light wheatish skin color, nicely done eyebrows and definitely size B manboobs, 6’2” tall and slightly curvy body, so I look like a tall woman when I am all dressed up. Growing Up; At a very young age , I got very intrigued with Wigs and Bra’s. I used to try on Bra’s starting age 14 and stuffed them up with socks. I used to roam wearing panties , and gown , usually taken off my dryers from my neighbors laundry. I remember this one weekend , I was all by myself and tried makeup for the first time and did my best , let’s just say it wasn’t bad for my first time. That was my best weekend being in woman clothing’s all day long around the house.  As I moved out of the house for college , I started freely and frequently cross dress, I bought my own silicone breasts , bra’s , panties  and dresses. I used to go to thrift stores and Ross, pick up the best in the lot, 44DD size and go into changing room and try them on with my Silicone boobs. I used to look for slightly worn panties , to make me feel I have been wearing them for ages. I got some cheap makeup, eyeliner, lipstick, foundation and the whole Shabang and 4-5 beautiful wigs. I had a closet full of items . Every Sunday, I would spend 3 hours dressing up , and sneaking out in public in my best woman attire, I used to get compliments all the time, many guys even approached me , I was flattered but never felt aroused for guys. Only when woman would stare , I would get a bulge .  Today: I still have a collection of cross dressing items and really good stuff from Sephora. I still cross dress and roam around in the streets of SF during my work travels (when I am off work) , you may run into me on one of my work trips. My wife and kids go on trips to visit my in laws for a month in summer, that’s when I am always dressed like a woman all around, with nail polish done too. I so feel in my element dressed as a woman. Sexual preference: I am into Woman, dominating woman that would control me, dress me up and take me on a girls night out. Make out with me in ladies room . Am I wrong in doing so? Should suppress my desires to cross dress?

      Yesterday I appeared on Brisbane community radio station 4ZZZ discussing the Cass Review, the recent NHS-sponsored review of gender-affirming care for kids in the UK. This is a seismic event for trans kids and their families worldwide, or as I said yesterday, “a world-class piece of anti-trans propaganda”. I have researched this solidly for the past month and will have waaaay more to say on the topic, but for now I hope you’ll listen to this quick overview. The episode is available to stream as a podcast via Spotify and Apple Podcasts.   Trigger warnings: transphobic healthcare, sexualisation of children (touched on briefly, but it is upsetting).   My heart goes out to trans kids and their families in the UK and anywhere else these policies are being enacted.   https://open.spotify.com/episode/3LAHs3VZB8zuGWGt41rzaL?si=BRUHUvz3QmWr5cyCEYyB0Q&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A3Jay63nMJ67bBMI9M59tKe

      No, though I am generally happy with my life. Transitioning later in life has left me in a position where I don't pass, and it sometimes confuses people, which makes me sad. I am able to live quite normally due to a supportive community, but I neither chose nor wanted to be trans, so I do hold a level of conflict with it. Early in my transition, my psychologist told me I needed to come to terms with my new role (but she had no advice how to do this) or I wouldn't find peace, and I doubt I ever will. I have learned to live with this, and I am trying to make the most of my time, but true peace and happiness has eluded me.   Hugs,   Allie

      My wife and I love to cook together, so we have started to create a recipe book to collect all the great flavors we've cooked over the years. These are amongst my favorites.

      lol Now logarithmic is a word I haven’t heard since I was in High School in the mid 60s. @Mirrabooka.  We used to use logarithms to be able to do higher level math.  Of course this was before calculators,  we also used slide rules.  The first personal calculators that were capable of more than more than simple math cost hundreds of dollars.  And only came out in the mid 70s.   Today you carry a very capable computer in your pocket or even on your wrist.
