Does anyone else wish they were a shape-shifter?

  1. 1. Would you like the ability to switch between a male or female body at will?



Recommended Posts

I wish I could remake my body whenever I wanted. I don't think I would like being female all the time but I also don't want to be trapped in a male body forever. Something a bit more in between might be nice but it would still feel too permanent. If I could, I'd be switching between male and female pretty frequently. I'd probably sleep exclusively as female since I feel the most dysphoric at night. How about you? Do you ever feel like your life could be seriously improved by frequent shape-shifting?

I often felt i was doing just that when i would spend time as myself and have to change back. It was painful. I can't imagine wanting that pain but i did learn to live with it for several years before i could go full time.

Hugs,

Mhhh this is a tough question. On the one hand, I don't want to be trapped in a female body all my life, but on the other I don`t want to be manly!

I`m something in between and it would be very nice, if I could be an androgynous human-being. Neither male nor female.

But what would happen, if I were a shape-shifter? I think, I would use this I would use this ability in public! I would use the ability to be either male or female. This would make my life easier :hairpull:

I'd love to be a shape shifter

I think body shape and looks limit greatly the range of clothing that can be worn and places to feel relaxed in

I love the clothes I can wear but also even more girly things which would not work for me in public view. There are even some male things I would look odd in. I love to dress up and change style.

I do that in fantasy but perhaps it would be a wish too far :rolleyes:

Yes! I would love to able to change my physical appearance at any time. Like Tracy said, I'd look pretty odd in certain things but if I could wear them without people looking at me funny, it would be great! There are so many girly things I enjoy but shouldn't do since I'm a guy. It sucks most days but then there are the days when I'm perfectly happy being a guy. Those days are kind of seldom though. Overall though, I'd much rather be viewed as a girl 99% of the time and a tomboy the other 1%

I wouldn't want to be a bimorph like Bruce Banner, just shapeshifting into one of two shapes. I used to fantasize while playing with clay when I was young of being Polly Murphy the Polymorph. :superman:

Hi,

This ? is like saying to myself any way whats it like being this way all the time ,and from birth . I don't know any different and with that only comes a few body organs that would make little difference any way , only one would ,

Living my life what really would be different how I see myself or would it concern others more, family yes it would or I should say did , when you are both male female whats going to change .... Really .....shape of your body hormones my own what you wear yes spos so or how others see you ,

so getting deeper how you interact with people how they perceive you as a person how you express your self in every part of your life .

Okay how could I improve my life , Gee ...Only one miner detail and I don't really think it would not now any way , possible maybe , facial surgery , I doubt it im too well known and known by many 1000s of people now, that it would help at all ,

There are aspects about myself that can be seen in many things I do that some may say oh that's how a male will do it or that's how a female does it , so combine the two and that's how it works in my case .

I cant change and be a male or a female or change to..... Being..... a male or female note the word ...change.... and I don't know how it could ever be done not with in my makeup ,

So what youd like to do is be totally all male , and say later be totally all female Hmmm , okay , allright the totaly one or other ,

is not something I would wish for yet I was given what I needed to be who I am , If you can get your head around the im both then you may get what its like for us ,

As a ? though why would you like to be able to change back and forth , maybe that's were I don't understand your thoughts ,

"Is that Jessica Rabbit over there? I want to get an autograph and a picture with her!" "Naw, that's just old JodyAnn shapeshifting again!"

I would like that in only one direction. Female, more and better, in that order. Giggle.

I was envious of Marilyn Monroe, pffft! They would have to chop me up for stew meat and sew me back together. I would have more stitches than Burlington Textile! That much pain for gain I can do without. Alass, I must work with what I have. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Hug. JodyAnn

I'd like switch just to female, but since I also wan't my wife to be happy, I would switch back from time to time to make her happy. She loves moth of my sides, she calls it the best of both worlds. LOL

Contrary to my earlier post I am now in the position of being unsure!

In some ways it would be nice to be a shape shifter and look exactly how I wanted but I like to be open and honest as far as I can so changing would not be nice to anyone I had a relationship with unless they were fully aware. It is, I think, an ideal which in practice may be a curse.

Additionally as time goes on I feel more relaxed changing between male and female anyway. Mentally when out as female I am usually much more confident now than when I posted earlier (2013). I feel much more attuned to my female side although being male is more of a problem than then (for example - recently when dressed fully male I went into the men's bathroom in a store and as I approached the urinal I stopped dead and thought to myself 'this is wrong'. I overcame that but it didn't half spook a man using an adjacent urinal :D ).

All in all I think it is that I feel I can change between male and female to a large extent without being a shape shifter and in doing so I am still me so I am more relaxed with the morality of the situation!

I would so love to be able to shape shift---I didn't get that mutant gene though (Mystique from X-men).

We're a two-spirit, meaning that there's me, the tomboy female, and there's the fully male spirit that lives in here with me most of the time. He has dreams of looking like himself, sometimes, and it's so intense and beautiful that he gets a little weepy about it... then the body wakes up, and we're back to being stuck female again, and there's a different kind of tears...

I placed "unsure' for one simple reason. I am a child of sci-fi, and resolved long ago that were I able to switch genders at will, I would simply change my body to female... and stay there.

I have zero desire to live my life as male.

Hhmmm...I voted "no" in the survey.  I made my medical transition a few years back, and have no desire to return to what was.

Interestingly enough, I had the opportunity to witness something that was purported to be just that....

Early on in our relationship, my spouse (American Indian) took me to visit an old Indian bruja who provided a small demonstration with a portion of one of her limbs.  The gist of the demonstration was that a portion of one scrawny limb appeared to transform into something resembling a muscular, masculine, forelimb.  The old woman said she could do more, but would not do so, stating that her age the exertion required & subsequent recovery time was more than she wished to expend.  I asked no questions, before or after her demonstration.  As a guest I merely accepted what was offered.

Although I do not believe in such things as shape-shifting, the old woman's demonstration was quite interesting.

      They were sitting on the love seat, looking west out over Kansas.  Below them the busy city ran to and fro.   "They called.  My surgery has been rescheduled for May 8.  I need to be there at 5 AM for pre-op.  I start prescriptions and diet change on May 1."   "Okay."  Bob did his not-thinking-about anything look.  Taylor was always amazed that he could  actually be thinking about absolutely nothing. She was always thinking of at least six things.   "How can they be like that?" "What?"  He startled a little.  Contact with reality was reestablished. "Where does the hate come from?  Mrs. McArthur?  She was always polite, but I think she wasn't really.  Somehow she hated me even though there were no indications whatsoever." "Yeah, well, you know they are starting up that plant.  And my company is going ahead with their work there, down n Milliville.   I will have to go down there sometimes." "Oh, Bob." "Maybe I will stop by and ask her." "No." "No.  Cabaret is closed, I have been told.  Your transgender support group has scattered to other places." "What is wrong with those people?" "Same thing as Roosevelt, I guess.  You know all the racial comments against Blacks?  Like that game where our cheerleaders started this insulting cheer, an the opposite team was mostly Black? Teachers stopped it." "I didn't know.  I was staying away from that, remember?" "Yes." "You know all those kids at our church, the ones you called freaks the other day?" "I shouldn't have called them that." "Pastor tells me they are all from all over the Midwest.  These are kids who have been thrown out of their homes and were found on the street.  Other shelters would not take them, so they wound up here." "Not surprising." "I think we could do some good here." "What do you have in mind?" And she told him.

      You are spot on here ... but also it seems like such a rigged game for the average person that it's hard to invest energy into the political arena -- too much big money controlling too many people/organizations/narratives for the common person to fee; heard...   In general, why we in America accept either candidate is baffling... for all our innovation as a nation, we can't do better than these two bozos?    The problem is, the political arena is such a sham -- again with large money controlling all aspects of the system -- that a common-sense, love-your-neighbor, make-reasonable-compromises, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-to-work candidate will never make it anywhere above the local level (if even there)...    Everything is a reality show, and boring ol' decision makers that try to benefit the most people don't generate enough clicks, views and retweets...  I am not sure it is so much about celebrity as it is about party politics at all costs - "my side must always be viewed as right and your side must always be viewed as wrong!" kind of thinking... there is no consensus building anymore because that will get used against you in campaign ads... When Obama took office and then Hilary ran again, it was like all Republicans want to do was to find someone loud enough to put them in their place. Forget issues, forget character, just win a debate and rally the base.    To get back to your original point, not enough of us care about politics ... and in some ways we've become fat, happy and entitled as a nation. The yearning to achieve the "American dream", which drove my parents and their parents before them to work their tails off and sacrifice and save, is now just "give me the American dream for free while I sit here on my phone and watch tiktok..."

      I am about 5 weeks ahead of you ... best wishes to you! For me it has been subtle changes at most so far (if any) ... but I am also on the "beginner's" level of patch, lol ...    Easy

      Oh, another comment.   I am a conservative evangelical with strong Republican leanings. So is my wife, my friends, my family. I disagree with a good amount of what the Republicans are doing, but there it is.  I understand the mindset, I think, a lot better than those who are outside it do.   When you insult Republicans you insult me, my friends, my family.   People like me can struggle with trans issues.   Please consider that in posting.

      I found this as well. No playacting, they just appear: the finger waggle wave; bracing my elbow on my other arm that's folded across my chest, wrist in the air half-cocked; walking a bit more fiercely... All that. My wife thought I was mocking her at one point!

      I find my lack of time to read the thing frustrating, and I will not really comment until I have read it.  This is a wholly inadequate response.   1.  I think there are some legitimate concern.   2. Thoroughly discussing this will consume many threads.   3. I disagree partially with @MaeBe but there is partial agreement.   4. The context includes what is happening in society that the authors are observing.  It is not an isolated document.   5. Trump, if elected, is as likely to spend his energies going after political opponents as he is to implementing something like this.    6. I reject critical theory, which is based on Marxism.  Marxism has never worked and never will.  Critical theory has problems which would need time to go into, which I do not have.   7. There are groups who have declared war on the nuclear family as problematically patriarchal, and a lot of other terms. They are easy to find on the internet.  This document is reacting to that (see #4 above).   8.  Much of this would have to be legislated, and this is a policy documented.  Implementation would  be most likely different, but that does not mean criticism is unwarranted.

      Sort of bracing myself for flipping, because I am wearing f and of course I wear f and it is natural to wear f and what else would I wear?  The  novelty is long gone out on this.  I wore a bra most of yesterday but we had a Zoom call and I took the bra off because I was concerned about the straps showing.  I missed it.    My body is saying "I am female!  Treat me that way!"   In the past it has screamed about this activity that  I have done to it.

      This is what I'm scared of.  And it's quite possible. Apparently Chicken Little was right.

      I'm not happy to admit this, but I usually scream or break things.   Breaking things became a bit of a no no, because It was always a cd or something I liked and it got very expensive to replace stuff

      Probably amusement parks. I've never been to one sadly, but I think I could talk for an hour about them without any problem
