Surgical gender nullification - Seeking Advice
Posted: Wed Dec 24, 2003 2:28 pm
Hey everyone,
Im new to this message board. Im looking for thoughts and suggestions as to how I can achieve full gender nullification (castration and penectomy), preferably in Canada but alternatively wherever this may be possible. Im a 18 year old genetic male and have wished for this surgery since I was 15. I have the support of my friends and family but not as yet from my doctor(s). My reasoning for wanting this surgery is two-fold: I want to be rid of sexual desire, and I have never felt at home in a male body. I consider myself asexual and feel a deep need to have my body and hormones match my desired gender. I would prefer to achieve this surgery via an accepted medical practitioner, but really I am willing to consider any option, including whatever cutters I could access. I have just begun to seek psychiatric referrals, so it would take me some time to procure them. If ANY of you have any information, advice, suggestions, contacts, etc., that might help me achieve this life-long dream (I'd like to have it done before my 19th birthday in June, as the ultimate gift to myself), please reply to this post, on board or off. I've read over most of the advice on this board but I'm hoping for some more specific to my case. Im sure you can all sympathize with how important a step this is to me, so I will sincerely cherish any help you can give.
Yours truly, and thanks in advance for your help,
