The problem is you're holding off for her, planning to go in a few months. She's planning on you never doing it.

And maybe you do it in secret, I did. Not so much secret, I just never told anyone I'm not planning to get naked in front of.

Yeah, those screaming, smelly bundles of joy take a LOT of patience. Trust me!

And none of them were even biologically mine...

Only my husband and a friend I know, and of course my doctors know that I have been castrated.

Just when I finally came out of the "gay closet", I entered " the Eunuch Closet'.

I have no intention or desire for anyone to know I have been castrated.

Since my castration was due to medical reason, and not due to choice I don't want any sympathy.

Being a Eunuch is still a difficult label for me to accept.

Having gonads for so many years it is still a psychological and emotional issue to not have them any more.

I get emotional comfort by visiting the EA now and then, although I don't visit it very often, but enjoy reading about the trials and tribulations of others.

As it is said: " You are not alone".

And I am not.

Thanks to all who contribute honest worthwhile personal experiences and information.
