So far the biggest problems have been adjust to my new shapes and curves, I love it but, it's def diff. Finding clothes that make me feel right, and dealing with family. Some, most family have been supportive, some not so much.
I am still pre-op, that's a source of internal pain.
Will you seem to know how the problem is caused and you seem to know more than anybody else about the subject more than people who've studied it for decades. Why in the hell can't you solve it?That's because there isn't one. Are we supposed to just crap out a bull**** solution that will not work for fun?
Yes. Than it will be very easy to prove. Which horimones at what stage of pregnancy?

Because it is treating the condition wrong. I don't agree with chemo either since it destroys a massive amount of healthy cells and can in fact make the patient worse off. Of course, that treatment is becoming less and less used as better alternatives are coming out because the researchers didn't focus on destroying more cells, but on ways to better target the cancerous cells. You see, what I want for the transgender issue is for researchers to work on ways to fix the brain and stop spending so much damn money on furthering treatment that is going in the wrong direction.
That being said if it was something you could just ignore or get over you would have versus doing all that right?
If you explain your position well then there would be no argument.
I disagree...some people, you could explain til the cows come home, and they'll still not get it...
Thought it'd be nice to stir the metaphorical pot for a bit, so here's an article on what is being referred to now as Gender Dysphoria.
As a Libertarian I don't really have much of an opinion on this issue, I think that people should be able to do more or less what they want with themselves, withing reason of course, assuming they aren't hurting others.
Nevertheless, I am interested in hearing other people's opinions on this particular topic.
Thoughts?
I find the current path amazingly successful. Seriously I feel better about myself, I am HAPPY for the first time in I don't know how long. I don't have self hate, my body feels "right" for the first time. When I look in the mirror I feel real, something that I have never felt before.
You are feeling happier because your brain is getting what it wants. The problem is that doctors shouldn't be trying to give your brain what it wants. What is sad is that you are even more broken than what you were when you started the journey and you apparently don't even know it.
If this is broken, I'd never want to be fixed.

And yet it is still broken.
And yet there is no "fix" for what's broken, as you have admitted.
So I'll take being happy, and "broken" over miserable and "broken" any day of the week. Also, I have way too much fun trying out different outfits, buying make up is addicting, though bra shopping is a bigger pain than I thought it would be.
Yes, I don't need to know all of that stuff, thanks. Geez.
What I said is the facts that are supported by biological fact and that is that.

If being healthy means being miserable....screw healthy
You do, actually need to know. Because your position isn't a good one. I'm explaining how happy doing the treatment journey you find reprehensible is for me.
I've tried not taking this path, it was not good for me.
I ask again, why, aside sheer stubbornness, are you so against people being happy?
I'm against people destroying their body and doctoring helping them. That position is universal.
Yes, we have a couple of examples of that in this thread...
I'm not destroying my body, I'm adjusting it to a better configuration for my own benefit. It is actually beneficial.
The evidence shows it has been destroyed, sorry. Your crippled your bodily function and shortened your lifespan by cellular damage.
There is no proof of shortened life span, and it's not crippled in the least. It's enhanced.
Sorry, but you're wrong.
The evidence suggest that...
People that don't through puberty live longer than those that do with men gaining more from this than women.
People that go through more than one puberty live shorter than people that go through one.
Oh and no, it's not enhanced. That's silly to say in your current state.
You should look into what happens because of cellular division and notice that the more times that happens the shorter the cells are going to live.
