Normal for preop to get more pleasure from nipples than genitals?

[JenSCDC]

I'm pre-op and it get more pleasure from my nipples than from my genitals. Is this normal?

[Jackie C.]

Well, I'm post op and I get a lot of pleasure from mine.

 

Probably not abnormal? Pleasure from sex is mostly in your head. It would make sense to derive more enjoyment from the thing you want versus the thing you don't.

First, customary, Welcome to TP ?

Second, it is absolutely normal to get more pleasure from one form of sensation over another. It is one of those things that shift, and change, and always make you work for it so the end result is ever more enjoyable. And it is very individual. So go explore and enjoy what works for you best.

Personally, I get almost no sensations from mine (and pre-op for reference).

Welcome @JenSCDC Interesting topic. Since about 4 months into HRT, there seems to be a wild connection between to two mentioned areas of the body that I never expected but very happy about. So for me the answer would be...Yes, it’s totally normal then again, few of us have identical results.

Prior to my surgery my nipples were much more sensitive. I’m only going into my 5th week since my surgery; so I’d be curious to know once that part of my life restarts if it will change!

Hi Jen.  Welcome to TP.  Sensitive nipples have always been the norm for me... super sensitive, I've always said.  In fact, I have rarely if ever achieved orgasm without nipple stimulation.  Used to think it was weird for a "guy" until I figured out I wasn't one.  I'm sure my partners found it at least somewhat unusual.  Now, decades later in life, due to reduced thyroid function and HRT (I'm still pre-op), my breasts and nipples are, incredibly, even MORE sensitive.  I'd say they are now officially more pleasurable than genital stim.  Accidental touches/bumps are so electrifying I am actually careful to avoid it.  Sounds crazy, but I'm not exaggerating.  So, from my perspective, what you're experiencing is perfectly normal.  What *I* have wondered though, is how common is this for cis-gendered women???  I have known women who hate their nipples touched, something that is totally alien to me from my own experience.  I guess we're all different.

I say, enjoy it!  I consider it a good thing.

Hi @Tori M ... I'm exactly the same. So @JenSCDC I dont think its unusual.

 

I knew I wanted to be a girl from childhood, and so touching my breasts, when I first started masturbating, seemed natural.

 

I get very little pleasure from being touched between my legs (which was embarrassing when I had partners who wanted to go down on me) I realise now this is part of my dysphoria.

I definitely cant climax without my breasts being touched and, usually, dont need anything else.

 

That said, since starting HRT I find my nipples are, almost too sensitive and it doesn't all work the way it did. I guess I will figure things out eventually.

 

Anyway, I love this part quirk of my sexuality and find it, as a transgender woman, very very validating. My suggestion @JenSCDC is to just enjoy it

@Tori Mand @Berni, count me in!  My whole adult life, whether I'm with a partner or indulging in autoerotic gratification, I need my nipples to be teased with a fingernail or kissed and licked to achieve orgasm.  Maybe we should form a club . . .

I never thought of correlating this preference with being transfeminine; doing so I find it validating too.
