Transsexualism

The odds of that happening are very low, and in the case of many post-op trans* people (especially in the cast of male to female), you would never have any visual cues that your loved one may have had such a past.

In cases where you absolutely cannot stand the fact, such a revelation could be grounds for divorce. But I would hope that if you loved a person enough to get married, you would love them enough to deal with their past. After all, it is that past that turned them into the man or woman you love today.

That's not to say it would not be weird, and that is why such secrets are often kept. But if you worry about a reveal of that magnitude, just be sure before the wedding to sit down and say something like "We are about to be man and wife. All secrets on the table. I can take whatever you can say, if you can take whatever I say. Here, I'll start: I once had sex with a trout. Your turn." Such a conversation would be good for any marriage, as secrets can't stay hidden for long in such close quarters.

There really isn't. A transsexual woman is a woman born wrongly into a male body, and they hate that body, and nearly every genuine MtF transsexual person will eventually go on to get the surgery to stop being a transsexual (FtM TS guys have less satisfactory options and often only get up to 2/3 of their procedures). That is the goal of the transition, to stop having transsexualism and to "cure" it if you will. That is not the same as recreational MtF transgenderism where healthy men choose to vary their gender and create difference where it previously never existed, or only existed in subtle amounts.

So if a person genuinely has transsexualism, they will want their original parts gone and want to blend into the world of cisgender people, and they won't want others to know. It is not about shame, but about doing what is natural and living in the *same* level of privilege that everyone born in the correct gender has. Just because some "birth defect" stole things from you, it doesn't mean society has a right to compound that damage, create double standards for you, and deprive you of your natural needs that are the same as others of your corrected gender.

Now, what you might be looking for are male-born nonop transgender persons. The men in drag with their penises exposed in pornographic magazines rarely have transsexualism. The pornographic industry misuses the term transsexual to refer to some fictional "third gender" and blurs gender lines, when that has nothing to do with diagnosed transsexualism. Since what you are looking for are more likely to be gay men who dress in drag, the best place to look would be in gay clubs.

Whether transsexual men (female-to-male) have periods depends on if they are taking hormones or have had surgery. If they are taking testosterone, they won't menstruate. If they have had surgery, they certainly won't menstruate.

If you are misusing the term "transsexual men" to refer to male-to-female transsexual persons, no, transsexual women won't ever menstruate, since they were born lacking ovaries and a uterus.

To pass means that you blend as a member of the gender you believe you are. If you live as a woman, it means others accept you as a woman. Of course, "blending" is a more preferable term to "passing", since passing can imply negative things, such as counterfeiters passing fake money. Transition is about finally being who you are, not becoming what you are not.

The opposite of "passing" is "being read." That means someone can tell you were born with transsexualism. That is not desirable since the the whole point of transition is to live and be accepted 100% as if you were not born with transsexualism. A better way of saying you are being "read" is to say you are being "misread." That shifts the emphasis from your genitals of birth to the fact that others around you didn't accept you as you intended. Another alternative is to say that others "clocked" you.

It really depends on your doctor/general practitioner/endocrinologist. There are certain recommended criteria, but there are no required ones. Of course, there is the standard seeing a gender specialist weekly for 3 months before getting a hormone prescription. Additionally, there are general health guidelines, such as being at a healthy weight, having healthy blood pressure/cholesterol, good bloodwork, etc.

Remember transsexualism is like a medical condition. It is not a sexual orientation nor a choice. Nobody is a transsexual any more than someone is a cancer. People have transsexualism and they have cancer. So people with transsexualism have the same four sexual orientations as others. Having a medical condition or birth defect has no bearing on your sexual orientation. So a transsexual woman would date a lesbian for the same reason that any other lesbian woman would date a lesbian.

Now, if you mean why transsexual women are more likely to date lesbians than other people, there are a few reasons. First of all, most transsexual persons get put on the correct hormones a bit late in life. So years of testosterone may cause them to have more interest in women compared to other women.

Then there is the fact that many transsexual women tried everything to try to fit in as men. That may include military service, athletics, and marriage. Transsexuals who marry before surgery may find that they aren't really interested in the sex, but in the cuddling, hugging, and just being with their spouse. If the wife will stay with the transsexual woman, then you can technically say they have a lesbian relationship.

Some transsexual women might have no use for masculinity, whether in themselves or others. Quite a few were bullied, abused, or even raped by males. Their fathers were often abusive and never tried to understand them. They were forced to associate with males and saw the cruel things the boys and men did around them. They often didn't fit in because they would not join in on the sexist jokes, the bullying, the assaults on weaker persons, and the attempts to coerce women into bed. They observe all that and want no part of it. They also read of all the reports of transsexual women who were murdered by men, and even the ones with affections for men decide it is unsafe to act upon them, so they settle for dating women. While some women can be quite abusive to transitioning transsexuals, and the tales of such abound, they rarely murder someone for having transsexualism. (Harassment and stalking are a different story.) So transsexual women who have been around very cruel men may choose women because it is safer for them. A number of non-transsexual lesbian women live as lesbians for that reason. More lesbian women than gay men are likely to admit they chose homosexuality, so personal safety seems to be a factor for some.

There are a number of factors as to why some transsexual women look more masculine or feminine when compared to others. Here are some of the common reasons:

1. Age of transition - Usually, the earlier you start taking female hormones and transitioning, the more feminine you appear. Estrogen receptors are most sensitive to female hormones during puberty. When female hormones are started before male puberty, the voice doesn't lower as much, and the thyroid cartilage (Adam's apple) doesn't enlarge as much. There is less bone growth. This is important to the face and height, since male hormones slow the closure of the bone plates, thus allowing more bone tissue to form. Also, facial hair doesn't grow except for some vellus (fine, underdeveloped) hair, and that kind is good to have since men generally only have the thicker kind on their face. Thus vellus hair adds to the perception of femininity.

2. Luck of genetics - Sometimes a person's race or genetics plays into the perception of femininity, particularly if they are in a different culture or location. If an Asian transsexual woman were to move to the US, their shorter stature and less body hair will make them seem more feminine in the US. Some Americans with Native American ancestry may also appear naturally more feminine. Plus some families tend to produce males that have a "baby face" look. The male body isn't that different, just that the male features just mean thicker bones and a greater appearance of aging.

3. Better skill - The better you are at hiding male features, wearing the right clothes, and fixing your makeup, the more feminine you will appear. The earlier you start transition, the more in touch you will be with others of your target gender, and the more you will be socialized as that gender. Some of the better skill may relate to desperation or insecurity, ironically.

4. More income - The more money you have, the more tailored designer clothes you can get, the more surgeries you can get, the more higher end makeup you can afford, and the more you can get your hair and nails done. Passing as a fashionable girl/woman in this day and age takes a lot of resources.

5. More surgeries - If you can get your forehead moved in and reshaped, get malar implants (the "apples" of the cheeks), get the nose brought in and perhaps narrowed some, get breast implants, and get the jawbone reduced, it will help a lot, unless you are lucky enough to not need any of that.

She can only do that if she was born a man and still had male genitals.

No, it is not detectible at birth. If it were, transsexual persons would not have as many problems. The parents would know to raise them as the other sex and get them on hormones at puberty.

The current approach is to wait until the child complains, try to talk them out of it, and if they persist, take them to a therapist. Then it is mostly a holding pattern. They might be offered hormone blockers at puberty, but not actual hormones, and TS kids often feel suicidal when any symptoms of puberty for the "wrong" sex occur. In one case, the parents of a TS child felt the doctor was jerking them around and imported hormones and gave them to her and took her overseas for surgery. Her own doctor was furious, but realized later that she was his most well-adjusted patient. But if there was a way of knowing at birth, a lot of this grief can be avoided.

If they have had surgery and everything, there should be no difference between transsexual women and other women, so there should be no difference in the bedroom. A transsexual woman's vagina after surgery looks and functions about like any other woman's vagina.

Most transsexual women won't have sex with men before surgery. They want the same type of sex as other heterosexual females and would never consensually engage in gay sex. Most who would live as women and have sex without surgery are non-op transgender persons, not transsexuals, and sex with them is really no different than sex with gay men.

Yes. Male to female transsexuals are likely to do it.

Pre-op indicates that the transsexual person has not yet had sex reassigment surgery.

Nobody knows for sure. We do know that it spikes during times of war, civil unrest, and famine, and we know that some medications and other chemicals may be to blame. It is suspected to happen during the first trimester of pregnancy.

A good number of genuine transsexuals who are not transgendered are over 50 or 60 years in age, and they may suffer other health anomalies as well. One possible explanation is that their mothers took a synthetic estrogen called DES that was commonly prescribed to women at risk for miscarriage.

Also, several drugs for prostate problems and hair loss have warnings for women likely to become pregnant to not take them nor even to touch or go near broken tablets. Apparently, that can cause transsexualism and intersex conditions if the woman is exposed during the first trimester of pregnancy.

Keep in mind that people flush medications down toilets and excrete medications in their waste, and that not all the drugs get filtered out when the sewage is treated. Estrogens and similar compounds are hard to eliminate from waste, though there are experiments such as adding cattail marshes to the sludge pool, since the plants will absorb the estrogens and some of the other chemicals. Then the plants can be harvested and sold as biomass for making ethanol.

There are female to male transsexuals, sometimes referred to as transmen.

There are male to female transsexuals, sometimes referred to as transwomen.

But what it comes down to, is that each person has the right to identify however they desire, and not all trans people necessarily use the labels other people put on them. Never assume how another person identifies, or how they may label themselves.

I tend to wear both boys and girls clothes depending on the day. Certain girly outfits are appealing as are some boyish outfits. It's more or less about what they feel comfortable wearing. Some choose not to alter their body surgically or with hormones. Some may not have the funds for the transition. I'm only 17 but that's how I see it. Personally, I'd like to bear children and then go through an FTM transition for a more muscular build with a manly aura.

Finding a transsexual girlfriend can be similar to finding any other type of partner. You can try joining online dating platforms or social media groups specifically for the LGBTQ+ community, or attend LGBTQ+ events and gatherings where you can meet new people. It's important to be respectful and understanding of their identity and experiences. Building a connection based on genuine interest, compatibility, and respect is key.

Yes. Transsexualism is a physical disorder caused by hormone imbalances in the womb during the mother's pregnancy. It is not the same as being transgendered. A baby is born with a brain of one gender, and a body of the other sex.

To clarify:

Physical sex is what body someone has.

Gender Identity is a person's gender; their brain's sex and who they are as a person. This is inside. Transsexual people's gender identity is different from their physical sex, and this causes problems, as you may know.

Sexual Orientation is your choice of partner and is directly related to the body's sex.

Transgender is the umbrella term for all gender-nonconforming people, be it bigender, non-gender, genderqueer, two-spirit -- just, anyone who doesn't identify strictly with either male or female. However, having transsexualism does not mean you are a gender-nonconforming person. The word transsexual is reserved for those who identify opposite of their bodies and who will eventually change their bodies to become gender-conforming. A transsexual person only identifies with ONE gender.
