Five years in and two years post op at 67. I am at peace with myself and I don’t have to lie anymore to anyone and myself. My favorite ex wife was confused at first and even went away for several years. We got back together and have been together for several years now. She realized that it was still me inside and thirty years with three kids was something she didn’t want to lose. We get along just fine and don’t worry about what people think. If people would just get past the ignorance they would see that we didn’t ask for this and after all those years of trying to self medicate we realize this was our only option. My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner but better late than never.
I have been going through this for many years. I have crossed dressed and purged my woman clothes and repurchased new ones, and it has to be time to go through change. I've been wanting scenes a was young guy. I have so many bras and panties, and it feels so good to be in, I hope this doesn't sound weird. But I'm a year older than you are. Best wishes ❤️ Deanna
I hate being male, i never changed, I learned to live with it. I remember at round 12/13 I became muscular the voice changed, adams apple, male bits grew, trauma trauma trauma. I used to tuck myself up, pluck facial hair out. I never grew that tall but stocky not sure what’s worse. The only way I coped with it was to wear my hair long, wear female body sprays and makeup. I won’t ever cut my hair short or do masculine things
Bottom line, you be yourself and be happy, as long as you're an adult and not harming anyone else, you do you! Obviously you should go through extensive counselling and therapy though, before you take any medication or have surgery! It is permanent! And be over 18 of course. And 99% of men refuse to date a trans woman. But if you are happy then who cares? You do you.
"Reminds me what I am not" - wow, that really hit home. I had the same feelings, including the fact that my mind already thought it was there. My feelings on sex are very similar to Annah's as well. I'm so happy we live in a society that has these options to correct things available to us. It helps to give me hope for society... (Had my surgery 8/2019.)
I'm proud of you. you have changed yourself through transformation and got a happy life. I also want to change myself through transformation and I will be happiest on that day, maybe even more than you.
He wanted me to love the one who killed him . . . slowly in front of me. Our whole relationship of 35 years was a sham unbeknownst to me. I was left shattered while he "blossomed". The unforgivable part was that he let me think there was something wrong with me all those years. I wasn't pretty enough, I wasn't thin enough . . . I wasn't a ten. I was supposed to be his audience while he slathered on moisturizer and preened, instead I sipped whiskey on the back porch contemplating my liberation.
Annah’s wife seems like a beautiful person! Her inner beauty is reflected on the outside! We are all human. We should try to understand each other with a little more empathy. I’m sure the journey has been hard for them but people are pretty resilient.
You know all my life I thought a woman can do things that a man can do and a man can do things that a woman can do we were not bound by gender stereotypes. But now it seems that we are oh happy day right?
Not all relationships last forever and trans parents can also take care of their children the same way as before. Anyone who truly cares for their partner's well being and doesn't see them as someone they own will prefer to let them be themselves even if they can't be together anymore because of it. Being yourself isn't selfish, expecting someone to sacrifice themselves for you on the other hand is.
Seriously, if you make transitioning a "do or die" decision you are not ready to transition yet, any responsible therapist wouldn't authorize surgery. Post SRS is really just the beginning of the journey. Where the journey finally arrives at requires a vey strong sense of self because in the end you will loose most, if not all of the relationships you had. God bless.
There's no judgment here because I don't even know who you are but I hope everything's going well for you I don't know what year this was made but I'm just watching it and 2022 I hope the best for you hopefully you're still alive and you can answer me back
@jamessmith1948 I agree and i would say its rude. True love is wanting the one you love to be happy and be supporting your love in his or her journey in life no matter what. She deserves better cause she's beautiful? Are you kidding me. Do you want A) the one you loved for years to keep pretending to be happy and feel miserable, maybe thinking about ending it. Or B) be happy and be a woman she feels she is since a very young age. How fucking selfish are you to say she deserved better. Shame on you olga. You have no clue what true love is.
Dear Renee Christopher There is no Ed in Transgender Woman ♀️👠👠. Do you put Ed in Latino or Danish or Irish or English or German the list can go on and on please use proper grammar thank you.
Let's just say you were born as a male and you will remain as a male no matter how many surgery you do or how cute your p***y looks like...let's still say you are selfish to let your family go through sh*t just because you want to be just like your wife or like women which you will never be 🙄🙄you will never experience womanhood...ever ! You will always remember your manhood 💃💃💃🤣🤣🤣
The price of SRS depends where you are. In Europe where healthcare is public it doesn’t cost anything. In the west it can cost up to $100k or $10k for a cheap place in Thailand. Some trans women get other surgeries, others don’t. Some don’t want SRS. Most take hormone replacement therapy for some part of their life. Aging works just like any other person. We all get old the same way. My wife is a Thai trans woman. If you have any questions, just ask.
All I want to add to the previous commenter is that hormone replacement therapy is slightly different for everyone, but the cheapest option is injections which can cost as little as a $100 a year, or less. Most could expect a few hundred per year. It's much cheaper than most people think.
Wonderful what they can do today to put people in the right life.But it seems like they can't do anything for there voice, they all still sound like men.
Unfortunately not. Not when these people start taking over womens sport. Not when they stat taking women's jobs and awards. Not when you and I are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for their cosmetic surgeries. Not when fully intact men are being put in women's jails and making inmates pregnant. Not when women are being strip searched by fully intact men claiming to be women police officers. Not when fully intact men calling themselves women are being allowed to run women's rape centres and insist that women who have been raped by fully intact men calling themselves women, must be re educated if they insist on saying they were raped by a man.
@@ronaldhansen2378 Cost of living, labor, real estate, compliance costs, malpractice insurance, taxes, supply of SRS surgeons, other insurance, and public health systems. There are a multitude of the regular economic factors that impact price. My wife is a Thai trans woman. She had her SRS done in Phoenix, Arizona. She had her breasts done in Thailand. My insurance covered the SRS and would have covered breast too but breasts are much easier and she liked the work that this Thai surgeon does and is a lot more familiar with the aesthetics of the Thai body. Was worth it to pay full retail for those. He’s done a lot of the Miss Tiffany Universe girls (do a RU-vid search) and they turned out great. If you have any other questions, just ask.
Why look up to men who could not live up to what they really are? Also: they conveniently used people who for some reason don't look the mess most others look like. Despite their efforts, they do not look like women. They look like MN attempting to look like women at all costs.
Being trans or not being trans will not change the fact that someone is your parent. They will never stop being family to each other just because they are not like other parents.
I admire hiis wife so much this is what it means standing by each other no matter what, I realy do wish her good happiness n health all her life she bst Not show er futre BF any of er photos as a male at that will put most menoffotrtthanthat she looks gorgeous
Had a friend who trans from a man to a woman ! He then fancies me a woman ! Why ? I asked Him why do you . Fancy women why did you become a woman. ? He said compulsion compulsion. He died alone and sad
I have to take issue with the narrator, he said Annah was spending her last day as a biological man 🤷♀️ Annah will always be a biological man, biology cannot be changed.🤦♀️
...Your God given right to freedom to choose how you want to live.....I'm thankful I have always liked being a girl. I was born a girl and never doubted the way God knit me together in my mothers womb. I hope you tell your future spouse you had a sex change. This freaks me out for the next generation.
Not to mention all life saving surgeries went on hold due to covid and people died and still are because of the back log, yet these surgeries were able to continue. Pretty wild.
@@soniavos3127 not sure where you live, but all surgeries went on hold during covid where i am. I wasn't able to get life saving surgery either. But after covid I did get it completely free funded by the govt. And my mates that have gender related surgery pay about $30k+.
John 3:16 Father god loves you so much that he sent his only begooton son to die on the he cross for all of our sins he took the punishment for our sins on that cross so that whoever that will belive in him may be saved from death to life from gods judgment to eternal salvation . He is the only hope and true god in this broken sinful world We all have fell short of sin and we need the savior to save us from death to over to life from gods judgment for our sins against him to forgivness and mercey. I warn you out of the love His word is clear that no homosexual will inherit the kingdom of heaven. God makes no mistakes in creating his creation its gods will and perfect desighn for only one man with only one women in marraige . But we wrestle not against fresh and blood bit against principalitys and powers of darkness in this world which means actual demons The devil wants to corrupt what is gods desighn to pervert it and decive that people that god put them in a wrong body but god makes no error for he is holy and perfect. Belive and repent he is just and merciful to forgive you of your sins . No one is good we all need jesus. sinning comes in all forms not just homosexuality . We all have sinned against him but repent and he will forgive you He is calling you today there is a reason you stopped to read this So will you answer or hang up? Its the most important call you will ever have in your entire life if you want to be saved i urg for no one knows thier last minuite on the his earth when that day will be . God bless
I don’t want to legally stop adults from transitioning, but I am absolutely opposed to medical and surgical transition treatment for children and adolescents. I think this is transing away the gay. Nonetheless, I hope these people are able to be happier. I am just very dubious.
also, it has to be said, cindy is an amazing person. must have taken a lot of strength at first, but to continue supporting her friend... a truly wonderful human being.
Why’re you happy for her, I don’t really understand this situation around changing, asking is changing your gender make you happy inquire mind want know 08/03/2022
@@augreybaker9800 i am not sure if i understand you correctly. but i am happy for her, because she wants to live as a woman, eventhough she was born a man. some transwomen and transmen are rather unhappy with their facial features, so they would need to get facial surgery to lower the psychological pain this causes them. so, in her case, already having rather feminin features, is a good thing, as it most likely will cause her to have less anxiety, and also save her some money.
HRT for 40 years, SRS since the 80's and I still hate life to a point I want to still die. I hate myself and I hate people to a point I want to hurt them.
I often get DRIVEN to the point of feeling that way to. This world is so wrong, so full of deception, people are so closed off, cancelled, and often cruel. I don't know what to say, you're not alone. I write music to enlighten the world, and hardly nobody wants to even hear it.
@@jessicaembers924 Thank you for replying, I thought I was the only one on this earth. I also have zero attraction towards the same or opposite gender. Those typical butterflies around the stomach area I have never experience that toward a another human. But I have experience butterflies when I designed a complex electronic circuit and it actual works for my job or at home restoring an old 1960's TV Camera that was used on the Ed Sullivan show.I'm a nerd but extremely strange.
So he was never ever attracted to his wife sexually , it was all a lie really ,as he feels attracted to men, that must be hard to come to terms with for her , sad when people lead people down the garden path , get married to them and are basically living a lie and really they are conning them , I feel sorry fir people like this who feel they are born in the wrong body but I feel more sorry for the unsuspecting spouses of these people
One time I tried a Mounds bar. I realized I didn't like coconut afterwards. It's amazing how giving something an honest chance and accepting that it's not for you can teach you a lot about yourself.
Like the evangelical guy who tries to pray away the gay because he's told it's a sin. Therefore, he attempts to live a rightious Christian life according to the church he goes to..
People reallly need to stop pushing SRS. It is high risk, and full of complications. Depression rates increase after it done, also if your in a same sex relationship it’s very likely a partner will leave the post op for a pre-op.
@Wendi Sparkles once upon a time, I would agree with you, you had to jump through hoops and be 100% sure. It was difficult to get SRS. (Even then, we don’t know the regret rate as nobody follows it up) Those checks and balances aren’t being done anymore and unsuitable candidates are being accepted for irreversible surgery. I’m not against SRS, (I don’t think it’d help me personally) but for some it probably is the right solution however if too many people get hurt and have regrets the option of SRS will likely be taken away.
@Christina the evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of sex reassignment surgery as treatment for gender dysphoria. Your claims are at odds with the data.
@@kensurridge9631 what data? There is no data as there is no follow up! Best data there is is R/detrans, and that obviously shows those that regret there is NO long term data on “successful” SRS. So where’d you pull your info from? Uranus?
@@christinaedwards5084 your response suggests that you are a troll. There are a number of organisations that collect data on the subject ranging from LGBTQIA charities like Stonewall to government agencies like the NHS. There is data and research by professionals in numerous first world countries. You demonstrate perfectly the problem when people sound off without being informed.
Seems to me men are more overwhmed with responsibilities and expectations that they cannot meet. "Anna" could not feel good enough as a man, so he took the easiest way out. I guess now that that expectation is removed, he can be openly gay but believing he is a woman: something he will NEVER be. But at least He can be happy. Also: the fact that he wants to be a "rockstar" instead of wanting to be a husband and father... And the fact that he was a struggling musician who could not come up with $12,000, again, is quite revealing of him as a PERSON and the confidence issues he was experiencing. In the end, it seemed selfish altogether. He is another Bruce Jenner. A man who could not live up to manly things. ALL is good, cool and glamorized for documentaries. The harsh realities are usually left out and softened by a com passionate narration that does not include anything that ruins the goal of the documentary. Beautiful Cindy deserves the WORLD... ❤
2 Timothy chapter 3 verse 1 To 9 1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Unloving, unforgiving, slanderes, without self-control, brutal, despises of good, 4 Traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 Having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captive of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 Always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as james and Jamerebes resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; 9 But they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.
the thing is what makes a woman a woman is not that she thinks about sleeping with men or feels she has a vagina and boobs...it's a whole life experience...you can't get that through surgery.
@@Kaylakaykay1997 no, they were born male, male puberty, often difficult family life/ homophobia. Older man, overuse of porn/ fetish. What ever surgeries they have, are only cosmetic, will only ever be poor facsimiles of women.
@@aprilrae6551 Nah. You can perform gay. Gay for pay sex workers do it all the time. Plenty of trans people see their transness as innate and natural. You do not know their own minds better than they do.
1 Corinthians chapter 6 verse 9to 10 Verse 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be decived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 Nor theives, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the Kingdom of God. So I have not said according to my thoughts I have said what the bible says so there is heaven and hell but if u don't repent and keep sinning hell will be your final destination.
@@NikkieRoxxx You won't lose parent figure. A parent figure will change as all people do, but they don't stop being your family member, nothing will take that bond away from you.
My tanistion; I was assigned a race at birth Asian. I never felt Aisan, I felt like I was Black, I like rap music, I like gangster dress and felt a victim when I saw blacksbeing arrested by police, I vote for Biden. Realizing that unlike gender, race is a social construct I transition to being black this summer. Now I can be who I am.
Well, even if assigned to you, there's no such a thing as "Asian" race. If you were not arrested by the police, you were not a victim of that; you were outraged at most. Neither gender nor race are social constructs. Meridian and the Equator lines are social constructs. Maps are social constructs. Seconds, minutes and hours are social constructs.
This is just misogyny. Men who want to be women, enter women's spaces, insist we all call them women is delusion. Women are unique. He's an autogynefile. Not a woman. What makes us unique is something men can never have. I'm so sick of misogynistic men deciding they are women.
What would you call trans men? Or the way you'd say "women who want to be men"? Does it work the same way in the opposite direction? All people are more than how they were born and what their physical bodies are. I'll claim that all trans people are inherently against misogyny, because they are the ones who understand it the most what it feels like to have your body policed by others.
@@SylvesterLazarus They are all deluded. And transgenderism is based on misogyny. Women who hate being women and men who pretend they are and remove women's rights. What do I call women pretending to be men? Delusional. And the definition of misogyny isn't "having your body policed by others". It's "contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women". Exactly what transgenderism is.
