Many trans people do identify with the feeling of being trapped in the wrong skin, and they are perfectly right in doing so. I, however, don’t.
Read moreInto my second month since I last had an orgasm, I cannot believe how horny I am! I really do feel like Liz Taylor; “a cat on a hot tin roof” with a totally gay husband.

I was unprepared for how emotionally difficult gender reconstruction surgery would be. I knew it would be painful. I knew there would be a lot of work involved. I knew the recovery process would be long. I was not expecting how emotionally isolating it would be, and was also unprepared for how to deal emotionally with complications to surgery that I knew could happen. So difficult to be a transsexual. I tried so hard to avoid it, but it didn’t seem avoidable at all anymore.
Now I’m six years into living my truth, and I guess at least it is just barely livable now, which is something it was not before.
I’ve been thinking I need to go to my first therapist who said I wasn’t really trans and say “look, you were wrong!”. I’m so grateful I’ve had a friend to take me in. Otherwise my difficulties and healing and my loneliness would be completely overbearing.

Women are so much more powerful than men. We’ve just been trying to think it was otherwise, when in reality there is no humanity without women. Far too often women are changed to be embarrassed by their abilities, in lieu of being proud of their abilities. Women are Badass!
#Transgender women’s very existence is a threat to #patriarchy because it proves that having a big dick is not always wanted.
I wonder if I should take some pictures of my penis before it goes bye-bye in a month. I wish I knew someone who was a decent photographer who would be willing to do it with out keeping copyrights.
The flesh I reside in.
