Hi Chrissie,
Thank you for another thoughtful post. I know that there are already some personality changes I am experiencing, not sure if they are related to the increase of E because of the herbs, or placebo effect, but I do know I am calmer and more laid back. A woman I am seeing remarked the other night that I seem much more "cuddly" than I have ever been and am more sensitive, patient and calmer. Interesting comments to say the least.
Full transition is not something that I am considering. I really enjoy both of my worlds. There are parts of me that are definitely male and parts definitely female (and hopefully growing!
). My periodic forays out with a TG group I am a part of are wonderful, as are my almost constant femme expression at home. Yes, in some significant ways reality comes crashing down when I assume the male personna in my "normal" life, but there are many things in my life that dictate that reality. Yes, I have thought about dealing with any larger than normal breast growth and how I will explain it if it happens, and as for personality changes, I think that will be a definite plus in all of my relationships.
I am so happy for those, like you, who make a full transition and find happiness and fulfillment with it. As for me, my androgynous world is a happy place for me. I see myself as 'transgendered" in the truest definition of the word/concept, enjoying thoroughly the best of the male and female parts of me. Instead of running away, I truly embrace and celebrate the unique person I am.
I wish you continued happiness in your journey, and look forward to your wonderfully insightful posts.
Hugs,
Lisa
