Marriages

[Dinaki]

I may sound bold and sometimes poorly uneducated on this matter but I want to learn.

Are there marriages between one woman and a man that both went a sex change?

 

Also I have never met one, those men, are they fully functional?

 

Now if this post of mine upsets people, do please delete it and I am awfully sorry, I apologize to have posted it.

I know a married couple that are both transgender.   I've also read of others.  So its not uncommon.  The appear to be cis-gender.   As to whether the guys are functional, well I guess that's not a question for polite company!   (In reality, I don't know)

If sex were the only reason for marriage, it would make things much easier in many ways.  I do know cross over couples and while the details are not really something I know about, their marriage is strong, they are affectionate with each other, sleep in the same bed and look like the relationship is strong and enduring.  They have kids who are related to both of them genetically and are just normal kids for the most part who get spoiled by grandparents.

As my friends mentioned, yes there have been couples who both transitioned either before or during marriage.  I don't have more details but at least one couple was well publicized.  I'm not sure what you mean by "fully functional" but there are many, many different kinds and methods of intercourse and sex play.  If they enjoy any of it, then I'd say they were functional, wouldn't you?

i have read about both partners changing sex and the ftm is better much better so i suppose a traditional sex act is achievible but i wouldnt know if that is true and i,have not delved into seeing if there are any scientific studies that been been conducted though I wouldnt be surprised.

Although I have never been married,  I dated a transman for a few years, so yes, there are indeed couples who consist of a MTF and FTM. I wouldn't say it is exactly common, but it does happen, and happens maybe more than might be assumed.

I won't discuss the topic of functionality because it can be interpreted many ways (though I assume Dakina is referring specifically to men who have had bottom surgery), and it's not really my place to tackle that topic so out of respect to my ex and to FTMs in general,  I'll leave it up to the men on this forum to discuss it.

I knew one married couple who were both transgender.  They came out to their respective families at their wedding rehearsal.  I know nothing of their sex life.  Unfortunately, they have since split up.

When I first moved to Sydney I lived in a boarding house there was one section to the side where a couple lived they were both transgender  mtf and ftm. This was in the late 1980s' I spent a lot of time talking to them.  They are two of the people who helped me make my decision to go hrt and living as I had always wanted to.  They were very special and wonderful people.  I am very grateful to have met them they made such a big difference to my life.
