What I'm wondering about is roughly how many folks who thought they were "tweeners" originally still feel that way after taking PM for a while, say 6 months or so? Related to that, if you've taken PM for a significant time without feeling any such twinges, what's the likelihood of being a tweener permanently?

I've taken it for a year now. Nothing has changed but the size of my boobs, and I seem to be losing less hair. I am a happier and more mellow than I was a year ago, but I've changed a few other things including my relationship status in that year, so I hesitate to ascribe that happiness to any one thing.

If I had been hoping for "brain re-wiring" effects, I'd be disappointed. I'm not any more into chick flicks, not more emotional and sappy, though I have made some effort to understand such things. I do have more female friends nowadays, which has certainly opened up new vistas, but again I would not attribute it more meaning than that.

I obviously can't speak for anyone else, but I strongly suspect that a lot of those things (I was once Paul Bunyan, and I took these pills, now I'm June Cleaver) are psychosomatic. Unless PM has hallucinogenic properties to which I am somehow immune, I'd suggest you're seeing a lot of cases of pink fog.

It's hard to say what the future brings, and one learns to never say never... but I can say that I do not envision myself having my breasts removed and growing a beard and being a cisgendered heterosexual male... (hah!) and I'm not naive enough to think plastic surgery is going to change my DNA. In-between is where I'm happy... you can be grateful for your life and still strive for more at the same time.
