Hello friends

[Invictus]

I am 22 years old, and identify as Gender Non-Binary. I am thinking of getting SRS from a doctor in Michigan (some of you might know him) and just wanted to crash here for support. Cheers!

Well to the best of my knowledge (and what U of M told me) there's only one doctor in Michigan that does CGS surgery. I've never met the man.

 

Welcome to TransPulse though! Feel free to join the conversation and post as the mood strikes you. We're looking forward to getting to know you and hearing what you have to say.

 

Hugs!

Yes, it's that guy.

For anyone wondering, this is me. I have been struggling with gender identity since the age of 11/12, possibly even younger. I used to wear my mom's boots when I was a young boy, and I always had an interest in eunuchs/transgenders and wanted to become one. My pronouns are non-specific, I can be called he, she, it, they, them, doesn't matter. 

 

Also, I have autism spectrum disorder, so naturally sometimes you are prone to having what's called a "diffuse sexual identity". I can relate to that. But I haven't looked through the list to really determine what you might call me, so I'm just affiliating with the NB umbrella. Although someone can correct me because I haven't done a lot of research. 

 

And another thing, no I do not plan on taking hormones. Whether that be female HRT or testosterone, I just want to become asexual. I might also want breast implants also. But yeah, I kind of flow with both society's standpoint in how you present yourself while taking a libertarian approach also.

Hi @Invictus.

Hi! ?

[Charlize]

Welcome.  If you decide to have GCS (SRS) you will have to use some hormone therapy for health reasons.  My time here as well as seeing a gender therapist helped me to find myself and a path to peace with that self.  I chose to present as a female but i spent yesterday loading our dump truck with wood chips and making deliveries.  

Glad you've joined us.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Welcome Invictus! I'm happy you're here, and I'm hopeful you'll get the support you're seeking as you reflect on the future how you're seeking to express yourself authentically.

 

Love,

Welcome @Invictus

Whatever or however you define your gender identity it is perfect if it makes you feel aligned with yourself. It sounds like you have a pretty good idea of what makes you feel good at this point, though. That's great. Go for it.

 

Salut!

Gabriel
