Emily Michele's GCS

Well, I’m done with surgery! Took them about 6-1/2 to 7 hours, but it was worth it. I’m sore and tired and I’ve got a headache because I haven’t had my morning coffee yet, but I am so glad to finally be in the right body! Honestly the worst part is I feel like I need to pee really bad… I’ve got a catheter but it’s putting pressure and that’s why I feel like I need to pee.

Congratulations @Emily Michele!

I've been there with a post-surgical catheter, but that's temporary. Enjoy your new sense of freedom—that will not be so temporary.

cheers,

Davie

Congratulations!

 

And yeah, the catheter SUCKS! I had drains too. I think those sucked even a little more. Egad, my vag is puckering just THINKING about it. Ew. Ew. Ew.

 

Hugs!

Congratulations @Emily Michele. Hope your recovery is swift and complication free. I also agree the catheter, while necessary, is absolutely the worst! For me, it was worse than the surgery itself.

 

My Best,

Day After surgery. Things are going well, pain is managed by Tylenol. I’m glad I decided on a zero depth vaginoplasty. It may not be for everyone, but something to consider.

Congratulations @Emily Michele

 

I am about 3 months past my zero depth. The catheter was absolutely the worst part of it for me. Happy healing!

 

Hugs,

Mike

So, 9 weeks post op and I feel amazing! I can wear clothes based on form not function! Nothing to hide below the belt! So glad I did what I did!

Having the right parts has brought me such confidence and freedom. Confidence in   myself and my gender, that if someone happens to see my panties they’ll see girl parts and no extra lumps…

freedom to be a woman and to wear all the clothes that I  want to wear. I choose based on look, not on how they’ll hide stuff. And panties are comfy now!

      https://beachgrit.com/2024/04/tolerance-on-the-ropes-as-transgender-surfer-refused-entry-into-womens-division-of-longboard-contest/     Same old same old.  How will the Cis-girl surfers feel about trans men participating in their events, I wonder?   Carolyn Marie

      https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/04/russian-poetry-competition-bans-transgender-applicants/     Everyone in Russia knows that Putin hates LGBT people, so every segment of society gets on board with the Leader's viewpoint, or they risk his wrath.  Sounds a lot like Florida, doesn't it?   Carolyn Marie

      happy trans birthday! I can't speak personally on the subject, but I hope hormones bring you the changes you're looking for <3

      That’s super healthy, to see that something that becomes common has less effect on you and that you are able to decipher these feelings.   Sadly, this trend tends to only deaden good feelings as we tend not to let bad feelings attenuate the same way.   I have noticed less euphoria, but still feel the dysphorias that I have. Sometimes the good sneaks in and reminds me, but often time it’s just me seeing myself in the mirror and being comfortable about what I see when embracing my realized self. I may not get the same buzz I once did, but I don’t feel incongruous when looking at a more “drab” reflection.    Wishing you strength, you are amazing!

      Congratulations! and Happy Trans Birthday @LittleSam! That is such a BIG milestone.  I can still remember walking out of my clinic with my first HRT presciption.  I was on Cloud-9.  Wishing you all the best in the start of your new Journey!

      maebe thank you I try to be. I thank God for blessings, try to share them, beg forgiveness for my shortcomings n vow to try to do better...2 priests have said no, God doesn't condemn you just for being trans...but apparently evangelicals do   I shall vtry dear thank you  
    • MaeBe
      Meet him at the being good to others part of Christianity. At the heart of it, there are excellent tenets of the faith. Those that condemn are judging, Jesus would have us be selfless; stone casting and all that. Are you a good person? Are you putting good into the world? If your gender is an issue for God, let God judge. In the mortal realm, let your actions be heard. 
    • missyjo
      and just fi sweeten it..I'm catholic n he hasn't been for years..he's evangelical..whatever that is

      Let’s stick to cite-able fact. Most of my posts have been directly in relation to LGBTQ+ rights as it pertains to P2025 and I have drawn direct links between people, their quotes, and their agenda. I have made reference to the cronyism that P2025 would entail as well, by gutting, not cutting, broad swathes of government and replacing it with “conservative warriors” (I can get you the direct quote, but rest assured it’s a quote). All this does is constantly force the cogs to be refitted, not their movement. To say that agencies have directly defied a President is a bit much, the EPA did what Trump told them to do at the direct harm to the environment, the department of agriculture did the same by enacting the administrations forced move to KC which decimated the USDA.      How about Betsy DeVoss for Education? Or Bannon for anything? What about the revolving Chief of Staff position that Trump couldn’t stay filled? Or the Postmaster General, who did much to make the USPS worse?   Let’s not mix politics with racism, sexism, or any other ism. Because Trump made mainly white, male, appointments—many of them not, arguably, people fit for service—or unwilling to commit to term. I can argue this because, again, he’s up for election and will do what he did before (and more of the same, his words).   Please delineate how the selected diversity appointments have negatively affected the US, other than being black, women, or queer? Representation matters and America benefits when its people are inspired and empowered.
