male 2 eunuch transition

[jgbillingham (imported)]

I've been confused about my gender for some time now. I'm 50 years old and gay, I identify myself largely as mid gender and aspire to being surgically castrated. Somehow I feel that chemical castration isn't for me and that I can directly benefit from gaining the attributes (along with the drawbacks) of surgical castration. I'm also Vegan so very wary of the potential animal ingredients of any medicines.

Process wise I am past the initial consultation stage at the the Gender Identity Clinic

Hi and welcome!

I´m glad that you are being on treatment already. Seize the advantage of having a near gender clinic. We all are different. I don´t consider myself as a man. If I put in a scale my Identity It would be 0% man and %50% woman or so.

keep post your progress.

In medical terms you are what is called a Male-to-Eunuch trangendered person. Your actual diagnosis the way things are today, assuming you get an actual diagnosis, would likely be Gender Dysphoria - Not otherwise specified. The simple truth is that we male-to-eunuchs are not fully recognized in the DSM V at this point, though work is happening towards that goal. Good news is we're at least mentioned in the book for the first time in a section stating the subject needs more study. It's not great, but it's a start.

You are working with a gender identity clinic and I think that is an excellent place for you to be. I have a doctor therapist I've been working with here in the US that has been helping me with the issues surrounding male-to-eunuch transgenderism. At the moment, I am working with a doctor to start bringing service to our community here in the US. It's a slow roll, and it is going to be expensive (though depending on what you're wanting the price will vary).

When you say you're past initial consultation stage, do you mean you've had one visit or has it been a series of visits and now you're progressing along your path? I was a bit confused as to where you are. As far as ingredients, once you know the drug and the manufacturer you should be able to sort out animal byproducts through online searches and/or looking at the potential side effects of the drug. Sometimes its hard to decipher, at least with drugs in the US, I'm not sure about the UK.

If you wish, feel free to get in touch with me. You and I are on a similar path, and I'm a bit further down the road than you appear to be at this time. I'd be glad to help you with insight into what's ahead.

Thank you for your interest, I have had one consultation so far, the consultants view was sceptical and I was asked to return 6 months later, June this year. I hope to be in possession of a more convincing argument for my needs by then.

It sounds to me like you've encountered a person who doesn't understand that gender isn't binary. A lot of folks in the TG community cannot understand us. I actually had the gay male partner of an FtM tell me that I wasn't male to eunuch (MtE), but that I was Male to special little snowflake when I approached them. He was quite rude about it. A lot of people just can't see beyond the binary and that people exist that fall between, for example guys like us that simply want to be without guy parts but otherwise be male.

I'm not sure you'll need a more convincing argument as you and I are what we are, though you might need a different therapist. Mine understood immediately what I was going for and why I was speaking with him. If you're convinced this is who you are, I'd go back and ask to speak to a different therapist.

An interesting point, there's a high chance that I'll see another Consultant at my June appointment so I'll leave that unsaid, it is possible that I wasn't as clear as I could have been during my last consultation due to nerves at a highly challenging consultation, perhaps now that I think I know the beast and that I understand myself better, I may be able to get further

I'm glad to be here if you would like to ask questions. I've been down your road, though it sounds like I'm a bit further along. It's a difficult thing to navigate, but you'll get there. Just remain confident, and know what your destination is.

I've been working this for over 20 years now, and am just now getting to where I want to be. Hopefully it will be quicker for you.

Thank you so much for this, Losethem. It's taken me a while to figure out that i am, as you said, a MTE transgender person. i finally realized that gender expression ("masculine" in my case) doesn't have to match gender identity (MTE in my case). That should have been obvious, i suppose, but it was a revelation to me. Now that my partners are on board, etc., i'm trying to get the logistics arranged to make the outside fit what's inside as soon as possible.

Losethem is right on the money, I know with me once I was cut, I was finally who I was always meant to be.

No regrets.

Everyone is welcome. I do have a path for those who want things done, though you'll have to come up with quite a bit of cash. However it's an all-encompasing path (Penectomy, castration, or nullification... all variations of MtE). At this point I'm not ready to start making recommendations to others, but I think that will be coming over the summer this year. I have to get further information before I feel confident making referrals, and when that time comes I will ONLY be making referrals for those folks I think are sincere and serious.

I won't burden these doctors with those people who are rubbing their dicks raw if I can avoid it. Fair warning: If you are a fantasy person, don't even think about contacting me about this. I've been around this community for 2-decades online (basically from the start) and I've figured out how to smoke you guys out. If you are into fantasy (which in and of itself is fine) and you contact me regarding this doctor, I'll stomp you flatter than a steamroller. I'm not willing to risk the first FULL SERVICE legitimate physician for the eunuch community for you to get a few moments of self-gratification.
