Any advice welcome!!

Well, I've visited this site countless times, but now I've finally plucked up the courage to speak. This is my first time posting, so if I say anything stupid, be gentle with me

I just wanted to ask a sort of open question. While, of course, any decision about the desire for castration/nullification is not made overnight, I was wondering if anyone felt that there was any event or experience that could be called a definitive moment - something that made them think "this is right, this is what I want for me"? (or, I guess, definitely wrong).

My 'interest' (for want of a better word) goes back to my teens and I'm not going to try to cram all my thoughts into a single post. There's been periods of pure fantasy, and periods of mixed-up, but genuine feelings about it all.

I've read all I can find on the net - very thankful that there are guys out there willing to share their experiences, have their own personal pages, and that the Eunuch Archive exists. Otherwise, I'd probably still be out there assuming it was just me...

I'll have to wait and see what responses (if any) this gets. Boy, does it feel good to break the ice, though

I copied this thread over because I thought that it might get more responses here.

Anyway...welcome to the zoo and don't be shy. I think you'll find we're a rather inviting crowd.

Welcome Scruffy, You've come to the right place. You'll find alot of helpfull information here and meet new friends. There are loving people in EA that will be there for you whatever you decide.

I am fairly new to the Archive but would suggest that you weigh the advantages and disadvantages. and try to analize your feelings to find out if this is just pure fantasy or is there an underlying reason that would justify castration. Once done there is no turning back

My reason was for MTF that Ive desired since early childhood. But thats just me. But whatever you decide we are behind you and will be there for you friend.

Well Scruffy you have came to the right place for thair are many who will be glad to answer your questions.As for castration i feel it is best to try chemical castration first for you never know just how you will react to this change.I cant think of a defining moment that i knew i had to do somthing but i knew i did need to lower the testosterone and i found all the advise i needed here. I am on depo provera for the last 19 monthes and it is the best thing that i have done for myself and my marrage.I hope you find the answers that you are looking for my friend for i know thay are here

Thanks for the warm welcomes.

Guess I'm more likely to be listening than talking on these boards - then again, once I start asking questions...
