I wanted to pose this question and ask the opinions of other long term Chemical and castrated Eunuchs. I have noted both here on the Boards (and in the past in the Chatroom) that quite suddenly one word in a thread or conversation has prompted almost a blinding flash of intuition which has been remarkable to me.

It is a skill I hadn't previously had but, of course, everyone has heard about "Female Intuition". I believe that non Eunuchs don't have this insight and gafaw at it. I didn't use to have this insight and perception, yet now it occurs strongly on ocassions. Usually this "insight" is very clear and accurate though it isn't always flawless. Have you noticed this new insight too? Am I onto a facet of Eunuch outlook that we maybe pass over without comment?

Many people refer to the concept of intuition by other names, as well: Insight; Instinct, to name just a couple. I believe in one manner or another we all have something akin to this.

In my experience, the real crux of the issue is whether one will recognize and then acknowledge it, respect it, or "listen" to it. In many places, women are more in tune with this sense, or perhaps it is more innate - I have no idea. I do believe that it is 'trained" out of many men, especially in the USA.

On the other hand, I rely very much upon it, and find that instinct (as I prefer to call it) is most often "right on" and if I don't listen or heed, I usually will regret it (of course that could also be self-fulfilling prophecy....).

Sac Mec,

I've always relied on intuition. Took the Myers-Briggs personality test about 15 years ago and came out as an INTJ. The description of INTJs starts off with:

As an INTJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things rationally and logically.

Haven't noticed a change since castration (a year ago).

Since you want things to line up along gender bounderies, I'll cooperate by saying, "Guess this is evidence I'm transgendered!"

I have not noticed a difference. I am still me. Of course, I'm only 3 months on and I take HRT.

Thanks for your responses here. Losethem, it will take alot more than 3 months before you would notice this change - possibly up to 2 years, I reckon before you notice such a subtle but profound difference {look forward to it:)}.Bryan, I realised after my second posting that I had sadly forgotten to ask for the views of transgendered folk here. Logically, if my proposal and thoughts are correct then once someone has been trangendered a while, then I expect that the same new insight and perceptions would come into their new lives also.

I apologise for the oversight, I was about to rectify it because I strongly feel this is a shared insight between Eunuchs and the transgendered too. I feel this is an insight into the feminine side of our brain/personality that we are lucky to share with most women.
