Trans fantasy

[quote=funlyfriend]Bring back the trans and CD members[/quote]Yea, what she said.

I def mean that, lol. Love to hear some chatter hear.

Bring back the trans and CD members

Btw, we found an awesome video on PH with Daisy where she totally talks about this subject as well. Just search for "DAISY TAYLOR TALKS ABOUT BEING A TRANS PORNSTAR IN TODAY'S WORLD" and jump to around the 48min mark :)

If you're looking for another suggestion, Natalie Mars is a huge favorite of ours ;)

Thanks for the heads up on Daisy

@NorthCountryPlayHouse

Daisy Taylor is extremely cute and we'd both love the opportunity to show her a good time if given the chance ;) Though if you notice in all of her videos she's taking the cock, not the other way around. Again, it's very uncommon to find trans girls that are capable of or willing to top other people without a strap on.

Wow, interesting discussion here...I will only add that I currently have an interest in finding a sexy lady who happens to have nice, cut cock with an interest in gently using a handsome 54 year man who loves creampies and has a new interest in sucking cock...That's my fantasy and I have certainly enjoyed some of the lovely ladies on the porn sites who fit the bill. My fav, currently, is Daisy Taylor, so cute, and such a nice cock. LOL

My husband and I would Love to have a few like Aubrey Kate and Casey kisses actually them in person Mmmm yummy

@Just2, thanks for the response.

@TallMark, thanks for the advice!

I was looking and dressed very feminine yesterday in a sexy flowery short dress....

I was referred to as she, ma'am and her yesterday, Mary Jo

I think if you Google those terms a lot of questions will be answered..Maybe..

@New_and_Naughty

Neither one actually. Hermaphrodite is a rather outdated word used to refer to people born with intersex conditions like an extra X or Y chromosome, hormone receptor issues like AIS (androgen insensitivity syndrome), and many more. No humans are born with a fully functioning distinct set of male and female sex organs, though various conditions known as ambiguous genitalia, people are mostly female but are born without a womb (full AIS), and the like are actually quite common and occur nearly as frequently as those who are born left-handed.

Thanks for the question!

Just......Very true on the regional statement. We live in California but have family in Philly. The difference is very noticeable.

Just a quick question. I see the one post where it says there’s a big difference between trans-sexual and trans-gender. I don’t know if this term is offensive so I apologize beforehand if it is, which of the two is a hermaphrodite?

The "cis" term is typically used when one Trans girl is talking to another Trans girl and is referring to a natural born woman, since Trans girls use the feminine term with each other as well we sometimes have to use the cis term when referring to a non Trans woman...Now all you others should really never have a need to use that term.....Mary Jo PS. I am only speaking for myself and what I have seen and heard in my little Tranny World.. Your world may be different than mine....

They say "ignorance is bliss" what they failed to add was … "finding out your blissful because you're ignorant can be upsetting".

One last point on the whole term cisgender - it seems to very much be a regional and generation thing depending on how many non-trans people you see using it. In the western states I think that you'd be hard pressed to go anywhere and not hear everbody using that word.

Exactly @funlyfriend and I think that the trans community and the GNC community should be separate interests groups again as our needs really don't match up at all. There is a reason why most of us are going back to using the longhand label of transsexual as we really do not want to be mixed up with the cultural movement of the GNC community when we are just dealing with a medical condition that is nothing new.

There are a lot of good reasons for this - physical transition is a rough process to go through as the body has to adapt to a second puberty which can be emotional exhausting and physically painful at times, it takes a number of years to get to a point where most people are comfortable and passable in society, surgery is expensive and painful, and many people loose friends and family along the way. This is not even getting into the legal paperwork of changing birth certificates, names, different forms of IDs, etc. Now, for those suffering from GID to the point where it's clinically significant enough that it interferes too much with their daily lives and easing of gender expression has not helped the patient, then physical transition is the only path that has been proven to vastly improve the lives of trans people. There were attempts at drug therapies, talk therapy, even extremes of electroshock therapy to try to adjust the psychology of trans people and none of these treatments were successful. With modern MRI and proper brain studies (there have been several released to date that have confirmed the same data) we now know why as trans people's brains physically match the brains of their non-trans counterparts prior to any HRT or other medical intervention.

To make a long story short, for many people being able to physically transition has been an amazing achievement of modern medicine that has drastically improved our lives. The Standard of Care (SOC) were developed over years of research and collaboration among different medical professionals in various fields. There were check and balances to make sure that people undergoing transition were getting the help and support they needed as well as trying to keep the rates of detransition low due to regret. Many of those pushing for the informed consent model want to throw these guidelines out of the window as they see the medical model as "gatekeeping" people from transitioning rather than understanding that it was built to help protect the patients.

So you get where we are at today where you see many individuals going onto HRT and maybe even getting surgeries without the help of medical professionals and good mental health diagnostics who later realize that they are not actually trans and regret transitioning. It does not help matters much that there is still a ton of stigma in the trans community towards those who detransition and those people are not given the proper space to speak out about their experiences.

@Joe_n_Amanda

The suicide rate is unfortunate and a lot of the factors driving it have more to do with higher rates of depression, lower than average incomes among the trans population, and most importantly family and societal acceptance. Unfortunately, rates of detransition have actually increased in recent years and my suspicion is that it has a lot to do with the informed consent model and the fact that in most online groups for trans people there is a huge push towards physical transition as the only path forward.

Under the old model (and I would highly recommend checking out the WPATH-SOC versions 1-6) called for a set time of psychotherapy (typically a minimum of 3-6 months) and a letter of recommendation from that mental health professional for medical treatment if it was deemed necessary for the patient (WPATH is the World Professional Organization for Transgender Health). Again, this was to give a qualified professional time to suss out whether the person was suffering from GID rather than say body dysmorphia, dissociative identity disorder, or the like. Even if the person was found to have GID (gender identity disorder, now more commonly referred to as gender dysphoria) the first recommendations that were made were often more along the lines of changing one's gender expression to see if that eased the feelings of distress with physical transition coming in only if that proved insufficient. Even once HRT was approved, patients had to (and still do even under the current model) live in the new gender role full time for at least a year (this is referred to as the one year real life test, or RLT) before they could get recommendations for surgery (and more than one for SRS). All of this was designed to protect the patient and provide them with the medical resources necessary to get through transition safely and effectively.

"I've never seen a non trans person use it."

I'm not trans and use it fairly often. Not here, because it's not needed, but in some of the spaces I move in it's sometimes useful to draw a distinction between cis and trans in the conversation.

We all have things we'd rather not be called and that's fine, but it's sometimes the case that the thing you don't want to be called is of service to others and you'll either get used to it or you won't.

I think part of the problem with people not getting the vocabulary correct is, the terms have changed so frequently. Just when you think you have it it right, it's wrong.

@just, it's only trans people using the stupid term cis. I've never seen a non trans person use it. A good point was made about not labeling when you don't wanna be labeled

Just...... Luckily, both I and my husband are not in private practice. So we will likely have no occasion to prescribe hormones for a child. But that whole conversation is insane to me. There are two main primary reasons why I take exception to children getting hormone therapy. First, we are letting a “child” make very adult choices that carry with them life long and irreversible consequences. Second, with the current information we have, neither the suicide rate nor the regret/detransition rate has changed.
