Post Op Sex

My surgery is a long way away but I'm already considering the what Ifs.

I'm married. Well, according to the courts I am. I made a vow and I don't plan on breaking it. My "roomie" is staying with me and for that I could not be more grateful. She has made it clear, she is not a lesbian. I'm grateful to have her in my life and as stated I will always be true.

With the knowledge that I'll probably never be penetrated, I'm questioning if I need the surgery. Is it worth going thru all that knowing I'll never get to, um, use it.

I could get a an orchi and tuck, but I would never get that smooth look or feeling.

Thoughts?

You and your wife can research this, I think. Although your SO says she is not a Lesbian, she can still be intimate with you after you have vaginaplasty, and it is not anything other than whatever the two of you decide to do, no labels. I agree, if you want the SRS in only order to have sex by penetration, don't do it. If you have the SRS to be complete, there is the answer. I will never know a man, as my partner is also a TGirl and I love her unconditionally. I vowed to her I would only be with her, forever. But both of us? We both want SRS to be complete. We know there is a lot of possibility there for intimacy afterward? and I think that is all I need to reveal.

Oh my gosh! Julie is right. Don't have a life changing surgery just to see what it is like to have sex as the other gender. By all means to want to have sex in a way that feels more natural is fine. For me the act of the male role in being intimate has always been so alien that I never pursued it. There is much more to the surgery though then just the act of being intimate and you don't need to have intercourse to express your feelings towards your partner.

I personally cringe each and every time I see the male plumbing on me. Which means every time I go to the bathroom and get changed I am faced with the reality of where I came from and what i went through and most troublesome the knowledge to a intolerant group of people that if they knew I was trans they would think of me as just a guy in woman's cloths. The surgery can't fix the last as nothing cures stupid but it can take care of my being haunted by my genitals several times a day every day.

Don't go through SRS just for a sexual thrill. The thrill will fade and after that when you settle into just being a woman will you miss your penis? Only you can answer that for yourself. Just make sure you are honest with yourself when you answer.

The answer isnt sex, it's completeness. The thread "what's it like to look down..." makes me cry every time I read it.

I dont hate my penis. I used to actually like it. Now, not so much.

Thank you ladies. It's all clear.

Autumn.

Only you can answer this question.

For me sex was never a consideration as to need for SRS. I wanted to be whole. I wanted to not think about the bulge in my pants. I wanted to wear a bikini and not need duct tape. I wanted to look in the mirror after stepping out of the shower and not cringe. Penetrative sex is just a bonus!

      Good morning :)   I have coffee today, but the cup keeps leaking (I guess the cap isn't able to fully seal or something), so I keep having to wipe up the sides lol   Almost finished all my missing work for school, which means if I do a bit more work, I should be out of trouble with my parents (not even that bad of trouble compared to when I was younger, more just an annoyance haha)

      Good morning 😘   Finished packing up my kitchen and pantry for fumigation today. I also modified my backpack to make it day-centre compliant.  I was able to get almost 2 hrs sleep last night, so I'll survive. 😑

      I'll be going to some Pride events as a spectator.  Maybe marching in a parade if they have open participation.    The event we'd prefer to go to is held in a small town with a population of less than 600.  They have a parade through all three blocks of their downtown area.  Unfortunately, this year it is on the same day as a memorial service for a friend who passed away this winter, so we'll have to miss it.  So our second choice is a larger town, population about 9000, a bit farther away.    And we are keeping our eyes open for other events in the general area as they are announced.   I dress a bit flashier than normal, with some trans bling, such as rainbow or trans flag earrings, a trans symbol pendant, and a handheld trans flag to wave.  Political sentiment is turning against us, but public sentiment here is still strongly on our side, so getting out and showing the flag, both literally and figuratively, is important.

      I had that going on with my last two partners who were 20 years older than me.  One of them looked older for her age as well.  I remember a couple times being in the grocery store a decade ago and having people ask "can I help you ladies with something?" and then I'd turn around with my red beard.  Well before I started transitioning, but my partner knew I was trans back then.   I struggle with this as well.  My music and political career can have a masculine edge to it that I don't like.  It's been really frustrating lately.  I don't like pushing myself on others or telling people what to do.  I've been running a website for 25 years and have virtually never tried to promote it or even look at any analytics.  I don't want to push it on anyone.  I put what I have on it and make it publicly available.  It's part of my production process.  It keeps me sane and if someone else can find it useful, then I'm happy to share.

      I'm curious, but then if I am true to myself, I have a hard time being in crowds.  I love hearing great music, but being in an audience is such a turnoff for me that I don't go to concerts or bars.  I'm just very much a producer.  I actually like doing the dishes more than going to concerts because it's an active thing.

      My therapist is trying a new tact. I've named my self protection self that ssays not eating or too much exercise because when I starting because oftrauma my protective self started and also at the time the name Shay came to me and is now part of my name.  It's not like having a split personality, just my primative self protection who is always there to help me. My therapist has Shay, me and him working as a team to assure her that I am safe and to start changing her role in my life so I protect me by eating right and exercising to maintain a heathy body. It is helping a little but we just started this a few weeks ago.
