Well, it seems like the government has finally decided to remove the forced sterilizations next year. Woo! Now the only problem is that the Sweden Democrats (a "National Conservative"/neo-fascist party) is increasing in popularity (as a part of the right-wing populist trend here in europe), and they still actively support the sterilizations. Shall be interesting to see what the 2014 elections will bring...
[QUOTE=Ereunity;38607200]Well I knew about most of it, and I knew about some loss of fertility, I didn't realise it was outright fertility loss. Kid's are everything to me, I'm not jeopardising them.

You need to seriously think about whether or not future biological children mean so much to you over adoptive children that you would risk something like that.

personally im perfectly happy with adopting my kids someday biological children dont matter to me as long as i love my kids and they love me back
I don't even really want kids
[QUOTE=Tattimatonen;38612657]I don't even really want kids[/QUOTE] It's sad, I really wish I could somehow just magically give my child-bearing ability away to somebody who desperately wants children :L I don't really want kids (or to put up with the pregnancy stage, god damn no ;~;) It feels like such a waste but obviously I'm not gonna have kids just for the sake of it. If I was gonna have a kid I'd probably adopt if I could to give somebody who already exists in the world another chance.
You dont now, but just wait...
[QUOTE=Gravity Ponds;38612695]You dont now, but just wait...[/QUOTE] I had some pretty fucked experiences as a kid (well a younger kid) that kinda put me off it, and I don't think I'll ever be responsible or financially secure enough. But I guess things can change
id never want a biological child because i dont want to bring someone to this world filled with pain and suffering i rather adopt someone and try and help them to cope with it.
Is there some kind of psychological therapy/contact to discuss your doubt in gender? I'm not confident enough taking a big step such as HRT, and I feel uncertain whether I'm truely feeling male or female. Or atleast give me some confidence into what gender I prefer because it feels like I'm genderfluid which is confusing and onerous.
I'm planning to freeze my sperm if I end up finding a cisgirl as my partner. Though, I'm hopeful that later down as science gets better they'll find a way to get men pregnant which would mean giving transgirls the ability to get pregnant. I wouldn't mind adoption but I'd really like to experience the bonding that goes on with carrying a growing baby in your for 9 months... I remember reading an article where some Swedish doctors tried an experiment where they took two women, one was born without female reproductive organs and another lost them to cancer or something and their mothers donated their reproductive organs to inplant them into their daughters. They're both pregnant now, but the children have yet to be born so they're still waiting to see if the children are born healthy without any defects. But still, if womb transplants are possible we're pretty much on our way to discovering how men/transgirls can get pregnant.
This would be a lot easier if we had just been born the way we feel we should have.
what the fuck hrt is weird in that I can be not even sad and still cry over little things
[QUOTE=Liamhailhail2.0;38613109]This would be a lot easier if we had just been born the way we feel we should have.[/QUOTE] I agree but I can't certainly say I hate being trans. I feel like the experiences I've went through have made me the person I want to be. I'm happy with who I am. I sometimes wonder if I was born a female I would have been a different person overall... like a close minded asshat or something.

After a hard past two weeks, I've been thinking.. Should I [i]really[/i] bother going through with all the HRT stuff? I mean, My face and voice are too masculine, and all I've really been getting is bad rep for just having long hair around where I live. Should I just stay male? Oh, I don't know, my brain is telling me to "fuck it, you won't survive as a female in society", but my body is all "FUCKING FIX ME, YOU DICK HEAD."

Yeah where you live some close-minded idiots may give you some shit for it, but fuck them. It's YOUR life, it's about YOUR happiness and you're not harming anybody by wanting to transition.
heh, I wish I could be open about it but after a recent incident, nope
I never had a negative reaction yet to coming out as trans. It makes me feel guilty. Actually, the only negative reactions I had were from another transgirl who called me a fake because I didn't want SRS and some 13 year old homosexual furry on APB. And even that kid had another 13 year old friend who was incredibly intelligent, had the mindset of a 25 year old, and apologized for his friend mocking me for being trans.

If you do opt for HRT then you'll have wonderful support from the regulars here and, hopefully, your family.
