Transgender Chat Room?
"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,
My life started out ups and downs.I knew there was a feud in this life. So i thought of everything to make it better. But when something came up to me i would warn it off or sure they'd get a punch right on the head.Although this was tough,i made it threw the icy waters. Later.... I had a bad thing come up. i felt i couldn't handle my size ten shoes.I am a girl with manly feet.I wasn't gonna slip away without dating a true man. "He was the right one alright" but he does drugs. I cant stand it. so anyway, i guess this relationship can't cut it. i have not liked my relations with men at all. im lesbian. the girl im interested in right now is a young teacher.but i believe i cant go out with her unless it's outside of school,so i figure maybe I'd find someone that isn't in business.I'm looking for someone that is precious and that would like a big heart.I'm tempting to search your singles.
I don't believe you. Look at her website. Their are many people that are satisfied with her. I think I will have sensation. She says that one will have sensation. I believe it.
I'd rather be a dead woman than live man,which is worse than death
I might be able to help you find some good groups in your area or point you in the right direction. While i am not a therapist i have been through transition and am healthy. I do recommend a competent therapist of course but if you just want to talk with someone i am happy to help. A contact email is on the "my son told me he wanted to be a girl" thread. best of luck all.
I'm sorry, I just gotta say that I have no clue how Marci got her own show other than the fact she works out of Trinidad (famous for sex change operations) and the fact that she herself is transexual. I can assure you that she's not the best there is. In fact, I wouldn't send my worst enemy to her. I've talked to WAY TOO MANY girls who have had bad results from her. Either the cosmetics are horrible, or the surgery isn't done right, or there is no sensation after they heal, or the aftercare is completely non-existant. Her track record is pretty bad. Do your research.
Keep in mind that just because someone is a transexual doesn't mean they are going to be good at delivering the surgery. Just because someone's practice is in Trinidad doesn't mean that they are magically going to be the best SRS doctor.
I really wish that the We Channel had made their show about sex change surgeries in general and encompassed many doctors, not just one. There are many, many out there in both the United States and in Canada (as well as other countries) who are incredible surgeons. The network should have been thinking about looking into this a little better. I'm afraid many transsexuals are going to flock to Marci's practice just because they saw her on TV without doing any other research or talking to any other doctors or patients.
Yes, she's a nice person. Yes, I'm sure she does her best. But that doesn't mean she IS the best. Too many people are upset with their results and go elsewhere to get their problems "fixed". This isn't right.
If you want to go all the way with your transition, or you know someone who is going to get this surgery, I highly recommend you seek out other doctors and really think about this decision. It's a major step, and not something you want to regret for the rest of your life. Get it done right the first time.
I've said my two cents worth, I'll get off the soapbox. Thanks for letting me say what needed to be said.
I WANT TO BE A GIRL!!! HELP MEE
