Prior to my surgical castration I had about 2 1/2 years of chemical castration to be sure living without testes and testosterone would be tolerable for both my wife and myself. She was very agreeable with the idea of having me emasculated. The surgery was done by a urologist at our local hospital and insurance covered everything. I went in about 8 AM and was home about 1PM. She prepared me the evening before by administering a large but sensual enema while playing with my limp little penis to give me my final orgasm as a complete male.. I had a spinal block anesthetic so I was awake during the procedure and got to hold and look at my testes, each in a small plastic cup before they were sent to the pathology lab. My doctor was fairly insistent that I should take some hormones, mainly for bone health. I tried testosterone at first but after being chemically castrated for several years, it was like going through puberty again with acne, oily skin and elections. So I gave that up and switched to a low dose of estrogen. I've grown nice small breasts but they're easily mistaken for man boobs. I've had several mammograms which were interesting being the only male in the clinic. Am I happy being neutered? Yes! It has been been fine. My only complaint is that I should have had it done earlier. Would have preferred my scrotum being removed but insurance wouldn't cover that and it wasn't important enough to pay for it myself.

Who knew testosterone causes elections?

Autocorrect strikes again! Thanks for the chuckle.

Much like the old joke: "What do the Japanese do when they have erections? They vote!"

Or, like the apocryphal story that during the 1952 Republican convention, when Douglas MacArthur was a candidate for the nomination that Eisenhower received, there was a large banner hung over the main street in the Ginza in Tokyo reading:

We play for MacArthur's erection

It is a bummer when you know you typed it correctly so there is no need to read it closely and then be foiled by autocorrect.

A very non-PC joke was about Margaret Thatcher visiting China, and told the president about her concern for the lack of democracy in the country. "Mr. President, when will you have elections?" The answer was "Elections? Yes Mrs. Thatchel, I have them evely molning!"

Congratulations Shemp. I am about 10 years behind you with the same story and little but growing breasts.

CONGRATULATIONS, Shemp. I’m coming up on my 1 year eunuch-versary myself. That date is like a new birthday.
