Sex Change HospitalTALK

I say that because from 9 to 10 I went through a lot of changes on the inside. Maybe deep inside I was always like a girl before 10. I never liked doing boy things. This goes way beyond just liking guys. Other than some male features I don't have a masculine bone in my body. When I was 11, 12, 13 I started to be more and more attracted to guys . Guys that were like much older. Dealing with that and my fem side was a lot to handle. Also I have struggled with my looks. I never felt attractive. Nobody or guys in my life have ever made me feel attractive. When wearing make-up which started at 18, I knew I wasn't like real pretty. I have seen some guys wearing make-up full drag that were beautiful. And I have met a few transgenders that were beautiful. Then I think about women who struggle with their looks and still wear make-up.

Since I can never have the surgery done I decided not to do full cross dressing like I did from ages 18-22. I do like hats and vest. I basicly have my own style on how I dress. Before you ask no Boy George wasn't an idol at the time of his huge success. I started to like him more when I was like 16 or so. My idols were like Madonna, Debbie Gibson, Tiffany, Martika, etc.

I am a spiritual person. A lot of times I can pray and you won't even know. You don't have to pray out loud. Despite what these churches say they don't know what a person truly feels on the inside. I truly feel like a woman on the inside.

I have had my up and downs with guys through the years. The worst is when I liked a few straight guys but I'm only human. Or when I was friends with a guy I really liked and knowing there was no chance what so ever. I have been in 3 relationships. The most intense one was with Doug. Deep down I feel that I will never have a special person in my life. There's a lot of challenges in my life and the fact that I wear makeup.

Hello All.

I just wanted to let everyone know, I love the hospital surgery. I am a 32 year old pre-op transsexual, living in Elizabethton TN, not to far from where Bree used to live which is Johnson city. I am having a time with it. I already have breast augmentation.
I was just wandering does a person have to see a therapist before having surgery and how much does the surgery cost these days.

Can someone please let me know if Sex Change Hospital is still on the air, or has the season ended as I can't locate it at all. Thank you so much.

"Hi" all.. I will be 62 years old in Feb. I cant tell you how much I love the show. I have felt off and on through my years that I was meant female. I pushed it inside and tried to embrace being gay. It has never worked out. Years of depression and suicidal thoughts. Five years on anti Psychotic medication's. I finally and comfortably came to terms with myself after Mon's passing. And after taking care of her for over 10 years.
I think my Mother knew subconciously when she would talk about me in "She" "Her" terms, although I never bought up the subject she accepted me as a gay man. I am masculine looking.
I live way out in the country and have found that friends and relatives have turned their backs so I again am back in the closet..
Is their a chat room? A safe Chat room where I can talk with others??
Thank you Woman's Entertainment, from my Female side, and my Masculine side.

Thank all of you that have let your most private life be documented.

And I cannot say enough about Dr Marci Bowers and the work she does.. I pray for your safety and the safety, and long life of the hospital .

hi,

Well, to start off this show is doing a lot of good for me every time I get to catch it on. I told my parents about myself being bi and transgendered about 2 years ago. After that I ended up being called trash and garbage by my father. My mother ended up saying she disowned me. After this they would not talk to me unless they had to treated me as if I wasn't even part of the family really just someone who lived in the house. Soon after this I started doing fairly bad in college. It was due to their lack of interest and how they acted toward me. Eventually, around thanksgiving one year in 06 I believe it was. We had a huge fight I ended up threatening to kill myself. I finally quit school after that year it was too much for me. Not to mention I'm starting my story off at when I came out not what happened all through school (elementary, jr high, high school). Well after them treating me like shit I ended up making a decision to move to Florida I had a friend take me in down there. The day I left their house my mother decided to make the decision to call my current "girlfriend's" parents at the time. Basically they ruined "her" life too. I refer to her as this because by the end of our relationship "she" turned out to be just a gay guy. Anyway I ended up leaving as soon as possible for Florida lived there for a month and my now ex's parents decided after a month to bring me up to NY which I agreed. to say the least by the time the relationship ended I had slept out on the street for a few days at one point. I had been raped sometime after Christmas in my sleep. And I was left alone and sick in the apartment on Christmas day. I decided sometime after that a in 07 January-ish that I was leaving but I had no place to go I had lost everything. I instead was forced to come back to my parents. I'm lucky my parents don't know about the rape otherwise they would use it against me. They of course have let me come back but I am forced to live out as a male. I'm finally starting to wear things like female jeans, bra that can be hidden, panties stuff no one would notice. I'm slowly rebuilding I'm even trying not to cry while typing this. I've spent the last 2 weeks as full time female around the house because no one is home. I have never felt happier than when I am able to do this. I cant take a lot of this anymore. The only reason I see to be alive is the one person who has been there for me for such a long time since I met her and I cant even go visit her. It kills me not to be able to hug the person that has been here for me in person and its not likely I'll make it to see her.

Anyway I just want to thank you for this program it gives me hope that I may make it one day. I can't even find a job now because of prejudices. They can make up any reason in the world not to hire you or call you back. I'm doing everything I can to get out of here soon we should be moving to TN where I can hopefully find a job get the therapy I need and get away from all the troubles.

Thank you very much for this uplifting show.

jim i figured we could talk trough here

I told my mother today and it was more of where i had felt impotent and then it led into further discussion the first thing my mother said after which was am i gay. I explained i was no more gay than just trying to find out who i am and what i am going through. though it seems she is understanding to how i am feeling and hopefully she will support me through the choice and further support of me wanting to become a female and go through the changes.
