If I Were The Last Person On Earth

Hi!

Just a little 'What if' question I came up with while on a walk. Please assume the following:

Its the future, and HRT can be accomplished within a few days. A robotic surgeon can perform the surgery with high-quality results, but the power source to the surgeon may run down in a month, with no known way to recharge it.

The basic necessities of life are available, just no people.

At first, I thought my answer was a resounding 'Yes', but I want to think some more on it..... :(

Perhaps a couple of additional 'What ifs' :

What if there were a couple of small groups elsewhere on the planet, and someday you will meet up with them. One of the groups is very Trans-friendly, the other group Trans-phobic to the point of being a danger. Would this change your mind?

Answer to number one...yes, I'd do it right away...

Even if there are no other people...Because I need to transition for myself...not for others...

I'd still want to be me....

and number two....It would not change my mind one bit...

The group that is Trans friendly....Cool!

The other would never know that I was Trans in the past after my robotic facilitated surgery...

So, either way it wouldn't matter..

And I'd still be me!

Dearheart,

In this case, I would transition completely. After transitioning, being transgendered would not apply :)

I am woman!! No one would think anything else :)

Love

I would be sad because everyone I knew would be gone and wouldn't get a chance to see me as the woman I am. I am not transitioning for others (except in that a happier me is a better me to be around). I am doing this to be right with myself.

If there were going to be no people? Not only would I transition, I would get the biggest hoo-haa I could.

**poses like superman B)

......oh wait.....other people? small groups???? (sigh) hmmmm well, since one of the groups might have a cute girl, I'd think about her....I want my surgery to be so that I can be sure to be sensate lol. Thats whats slowin me up now :P

But you did say high quatlity.......

Ah, the one who didn't like transpeople. I'd hide from them till I charted their moves and then kill them all. Theres not exactly a jail to lock me up in. Pin it on wild creatures. Kill or be killed; I must do what I must do :mellow:

as for the group thing, well it could be in real life too really if you think about it. Groups of people that will accept, groups of people that are haters? Have the groups of people that hate us stopped us all so far?

Also I'd do what Evan would do if it was dangerous I'd somehow kill them. :P

I would still transition. I need to do it for me. I would hide from the transphobes. I wouldn't kill them. I'd leave that to Evan and Matt. :lol:

Free, fast, and quality transition? You must be joking me. Where do I sign up?! I'd do this yesterday if I could, even if there were no one else left.

I'm with Donna Jean for the second:

Thanks Donna Jean!

This made me realize that I'm a bit concerned about 'Passing', even after HRT and SRS. Hadn't considered that the other group wouldn't be able to tell.

I appreciate your answers!

Hi Gin!

Yes, it would be extremely sad, the only hope would be if there was still at least one other person around to share life with.

Appreciate your comments!

Hi Evan,

Haha! I see you becoming the absolute leader of whoever is left! Great, confident answer. After seeing yours, I thought hmm, maybe if I could reprogram the robot AFTER surgery I could make a stand until the friendly group showed up....

Thanks!

Hi LeeAsher,

Well if the transphobes could somehow be educated, and their hate chased away, it might help for long-term survival for everyone.

Appreciate your comments!

Hi Pol,

Forgive me for not correctly spelling your name. I hope that advances in medicine and science will allow for early detection and treatment. Your's and the other comments have sure helped me on aspects that I will need to discuss with a therapist, assuming I can find one in the area.

Thanks!

Yes! no matter the situation, i would transition, it's not a matter of worrying about what others think, even if everyone was trans-phobic... I'd still do it. I have lived my life for others way too long.

yup... no one would know... until they expected you to breed to repopulate the world. I suppose you could lie, but I'm sure there would be complete chaos and turmoil and there would probably be mandatory "inspections" to test ones fertility in a world such as this. One proper examination of ANY trans persons genitalia/sex organs would out you.

However I'd still transition even if it meant a life of being completely alone.

Never said it was "fair", said it was true lol. And something you should know: running from a thing only makes it want to chase you.

<-- can't help but wonder if you want a baby Ash.

And no its not a proposition :rolleyes: a ) I remember you're married. b ) Mary Ellen is never that far away LOL

But the quickness with which you went to that topic made it occur to me.

Suppose, just suppose, the "high quality" was that high. That you could reproduce as a woman. Yeah, you could discern some faint clue that the person transitioned so as to keep the anti group applicable, but trans people could repopulate the world. What would you do?

And why would you need to be alone even if you couldn't reproduce?

Yes actually, I'd love to have a baby. The absolute thought of it gives me such a wonderful feeling until the reality sets in and I remember that it will NEVER happen for me. It's probably why I have such a huge problem with my being trans.

Wait... am I just your 2nd choice behind Mary Ellen? lol

I could only dream for a time when our surgery was so good that we could reproduce the way we were meant to.

I was just saying that if in a world such as the one mentioned, there was a group of people who were not trans friendly, I'd still transition but stay away from that group.

      So, yesterday's epiphany was that girl jeans fit me much nicer than boy jeans. Well, duh! So this girl is switching over to wearing girl jeans pretty much full time. I'll keep my others for work jeans. We went out to dinner last evening and I was in androgynous mode...wearing a pair of Bandolino Amy straight leg denim pants. Score!

      Good morning, everyone!! The coffee upload has started for me but just in the early stages so I'm barely coherent at this point.   You've been missed @Willow - I hope all is going well with your wife and at work.   @awkward-yet-sweet We love to make beans with rice - one of our favorite meals.   No big plans for me today. Small projects around our place and probably some reading. We're going to have some rain off and on, and the temps are still too low for a lot of outdoor work.   Be safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!
    • Willow
      Hi   boy you back to work and miss lots.  No time to catch up right now. But I will.   just wanted to let everyone know I’m still here.   willow

      Thanks, @VickySGVfor some truth. Hatred may speak loudly in a political agenda, but there is always love, there is always love.

      Doesn't this belong over in the Humor Topic??  Grim humor I admit, but it has the dark humor picture of the folks protesting the Sacramento Sanctuary Laws.  If the world is going to end next week why are these people so concerned about someone staying fertile and able to have children??   Crazy.
    • VickySGV
      Once again the opposition is telling scary, unfounded  baloney about what IS being done to any Trans Person.  The truth about the very little and very cautious treatments just will not sink into them because it will sink them.  They bully their own Cis children unmercifully to fit into their molds, and that is gruesome in itself. I am happy to say I know that Trans children and all Trans folks in the area have access to wonderful care based on what some of my former State colleagues who have Trans family members and fellow employees there in Sacramento keep telling me about.

      good for you dear. my guess is soreness is good sign things are going on there. water them n hope. smiles   actually was speaking to someone other day n they said the growth leveled off after a few years  which coincided with a few years of very high stress..n then when the high stress resolved, she grew another cup size..
    • missyjo
      darling I completely agree. but it will need road testing I'd think.    and I recently asked a surgeon about an idea I had for easier recovery...do a zero depth 1st..recover then add a canal..he said NO. this surgery is hard enough on body to recover, do not do it any more than needed. also said penile inversion usually is sufficient n includes a few centimeters of perineum tissue anyway..so keep the perineum pull through as a reserve technique in case there is a problem with theb penile inversion.    hugs to any who want them

      I can't tell from the article if being trans was part of the motivation for the crime, or whether it was simply incidental to it. Clearly at least one of the perpetrators was known to the victim, which seems to continue the pattern that the most dangerous people for us are often people we know.  😒
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Beans, beans, the musical fruit...   But beans and rice make a complete protein, and a pretty cheap base for any sort of meal. Since two of my partners are Hispanic and one is Asian, we use a lot of rice. Plenty of beans too, although 90% of the time they are on the form of black-eyed peas. That crop grows really well in the South no matter how hot and dry it gets.  And the Native American trio of corn, beans, and squash is a classic.  Actually, those ingredients tend to show clearly whether kids were raised with a healthy diet or not. Kids raised eating those foods luke them. Kids raised without experiencing those foods tend to reject them immediately. Rather strange.
